Question: What we often hear is that the hour will not be established until Islam will prevail over the earth. And we hear from authentic sources that the hour will not be established until there will not remain on the earth one who says: La ilahi illa Allah (There is No God worthy of worship except Allah). So how do we combine between these two statements?
Answer: “Combining between them is easy. Each one of these events will be at a time other than the time of the other. So Islam will prevail over all the earth and after that, this Islam will disappear and the believers will die. Then none will remain except the most evil of creation and the hour will be established upon them”
