Comparative Study of “Fitna-e-Dajjal” in Semitic Religions
Abstract
* Saeed Ahmad **
Abstract: Islam guides us in every field of life and gives us proper information about signs of the Day of Judgment. In Semitic religions there are some signs same as described in Islamic literature and some are different. Appearance of Dajjal is one the signs of the day of judgment. This topic has much contradiction among Muslim scholars as will as different religions. Some of them consider him living person and some consider him society or country. The Muslim and Christian point of view about Dajjal is totally different from Jewish point of view. The Muslims call him by the name of Dajjal. The Christians call him Antichrist. The Jews call him Son of God and Savior. They consider him leader and king. They are waiting for him. When he appears, many events will take place.
