Oh People of Egypt, bring back your King!
As the violence and tension in Egypt escalates, the rest of the Arab world looks on apprehensively. Believers view every incident, whether it be the Category Five hurricane that hit Queensland on the last Wednesday of Safar, or the ominous signs of the fall of dictators in the Middle East, as part of Allah’s signs heralding the approach of the Day of Judgement, and the fitna’ associated with the end of times.
