The section below is taken from a lengthy 5/13/2006 article called The Role of Hidden Imam in the history and the politics of the Islamic republic of Iran at http://www.iranian.ws/iran_news/publish/article_15612.shtml If anyone knows what the letters "Kaa" "Faa" "Raa" that appear on the Islamic Antichrist's forehead mean, please let me know.  I wonder if it has anything to do with the mark of the beast on the forehead in Revelation 13:16-18. 

 

In regard to the Islamic Antichrist, the article below states  "He will emerge between Shaam[Syria] and Iraq, and his emergence will become known when he is in Isfahaan [central Iran] at a place called Yahudea[the Jews Place]." I wonder if he is "the Assyrian" of Isaiah 10:5 &24, 14:25, 30:31, and Micah 5:5-6 who some believe is the Antichrist.   

 

Also the article below states, "There will be a thick fingernail-like object in his left eye which is not the same as the Idol Shepherd of Zechariah 11:17 whose right eye shall be utterly darkened." The article below states, "He (the Islamic Anti-Christ) will travel at great speeds and his means of conveyance will be a gigantic mule" unlike Jesus Christ, the King who is just and having salvation who rode on "an ass and upon the colt the foal of an ass" according to Zechariah 9:9.

 

Dajjal or the Islamic anti-Christ
Dajjal is an important notion, which is, related the concept of the Hidden Imam. On the basis of the Shiit teachings, Dajjal will appear right before the Hidden Imam and he will try to deceive people by pretending to be the Hidden Imam. He is later killed by "the Jesus Christ" who will return to earth and pave the way for the Hidden Imam. The Christ will fight along with the Hidden Imam for a while, and during this time all Christians become Muslims and later he leaves the scene completely for the Hidden Imam.

Mohammed Ali Ibn Zubair Ali (5) describes Dajjal or the Islamic Anti-Christ as: "...He will emerge between Shaam[Syria] and Iraq, and his emergence will become known when he is in Isfahaan [central Iran] at a place called Yahudea[the Jews Place]. The Yahudis (Jews) of Isfahaan will be his main followers. Apart from having mainly Yahudi followers, he will have a great number of women followers as well...There will be a thick fingernail-like object in his left eye. The letters "Kaa" "Faa" "Raa" will appear on his forehead and will be deciphered by all Mu'mineen regardless of them being literate or not. He will have a wheatish complexion.

He will travel at great speeds and his means of conveyance will be a gigantic mule. It is said that he will play beautiful music which will attract the music lovers. Dajjal will lay claim to prophethood. He will then lay claim to Divinity. He will perform unusual feats. He will travel the entire world....The hidden treasures will spill forth at his command. He will stay on this Earth for a period of forty days; the length of the first day will be one year, the second day will be equal to one month, the third day will be equal to a week and the remaining days will be normal..."
