Colorado Islamic Scholar Karim Abu Zayd: Hadith Predicts Islam Will Conquer Europe, America and China Will Fall, and the Mahdi Will Lead Muslims to Conquer the Vatican

In his November 17, 2024 lesson on Islamic eschatology, Colorado Islamic scholar Karim Abu Zayd discussed prophecies stating that Islam would enter every home on Earth, and that America and China would fall, with Muslims ultimately conquering Europe. He remarked that Muslims who have emigrated from the East can see how the prophecy of Islam entering every home is "almost realized." In response to a caller from California, asking about the authenticity of the hadith according to which the Muslims would conquer the Vatican, Abu Zayd responded that the hadith is authentic, and it uses the word, “Rome” to refer to Europe, which includes Italy and the Vatican as well, when the Mahdi arrives. The lesson was streamed live on Abu Zayd's YouTube channel.
