Islamic conquest of Rome...?



Ten days from today there will be a presentation taking place in London, England, on the topic of Islam in Italy. No, it is not an anti-Muslim presentation that wishes to warn us about Islam planning on conquering Europe. It is organized by the Association of Italian Muslim Sisters UK, raising funds in support of the growing Muslim community in Rome.

But if you scroll down a bit, you will find the following text:

"Imam Ahmad reports in his Musnad that Abdullah bin Amr bin Al-'As (ra) mentioned: "Whilst we were around the Prophet (saw) writing he was asked, 'Which of the two cities will be opened first, Constantinople or Rome?' He (the Prophet Muhammad) answered, 'The city of Heraclius will be opened first!'

The Great Ottoman, Sultan Muhammad Fatih (rh) fulfilled the first part of this prophecy by conquering Constantinople. Thus, remains the second part. Having been forced out of Andalusia, and more recently, dispersed across the Balkan states, the city of Gaius Julius Caesar (Rome) remains. So let the da'wah
(call, summon) begin ..."

Lucky they ARE Muslims, otherwise we might call them Islamophobes hallucinating about some nonexistent Muslim plans of conquest...
