What does the muslim community in general think about Syria?

My friend Tariq who is a devout muslim once told me he believed that the prophet Isa (Jesus' name for muslims) was to return to earth in Damascus to kill Iblis the devil.
And that Isa himself would die in this battle to liberate humans from the devils power.
Its an interesting belief that I haven't come across elsewhere.
Anyone know more about this theory?

All this "Signs of the Day of Judgement" literature that circulates amongst Muslims (some of which they try to attribute to the Prophet (Hadith)) was all constructed and compiled around a couple hundred or so years after the Prophet Muhammad died (rahmatullah Alaiy).
It was most likely constructed as a response to Christians, claiming that Jesus was coming back and responding to all the super-naturalist ideas that exist in Christianity.
Bottom line is, if you look at the Qu'ran it never suggested that Muhammad or anybody else had knowledge of the signs of the Day of Judgement.
"They ask thee about the (final) Hour - when will be its appointed time? Say: 'The knowledge thereof is with my Lord (alone): None but He can reveal as to when it will occur. Heavy were its burden through the heavens and the earth. Only, all of a sudden will it come to you.' They ask thee as if thou Wert eager in search thereof: Say: 'The knowledge thereof is with God (alone), but most men know not.' (The Noble Quran, 7:187)"
Islam is a logical religion.

A religion based around the creation worshiping it's Creator. Sounds pretty logical to me.

On the contrary, it is not off topic.
You hit the mark there.
But a little correction. If The Messiah Isa (Jesus) returns. In islamic Escatology
He will not kill Iblis (Satan) but he will kill Dajal (The Anti-christ)
It is not only Islam that believes that the Messiah wil return, Christians and jews believe that also.
Although Jews will claim that the messiah Will be someone else and not Jesus.
@ Infinite
You are right no one knows when, Except God.
But we have 2 differentiate between the end times (the Class between Truth and Falshood)
And Day of judgement: Where we all face our responsibility for our mistakes and good deeds
The End times does not mean the End. There can be a lot of years, centuries or even thousand of years between that and the Day of judgement, God knows best.
But that said, God gave us signs about the End time and our Prophet told us about them.
I sum some interesting things he said:
- "Women will be dressed and still be naked" ...tune in on your average Rap video and you will see
- "There will be an age were people will compete in Tall Buildings".....Have you seen them?
- "Men gonna dress like women and women gonna dress like men".... I need not explaining this.
- "People are gonna fornicate in public like Donkeys" ...
- "People gonna ride on a donkey with his ears stretched out wide through the air as fast as clouds" ....Fighter Aircrafts
I can go on.
This is said more the 1400 years ago by a man who was illiterate and lived in the Desert-land of Mekka. You Might have heard of him, his name is Muhammed (saw)
But I give you one sign.... That each and every one of you must remember.
The jews were kicked out of the holy land.. By God.. according 2 their and our holy book.
Why after 2000 years have they returned? Who returned them? Was it not forbidden for them 2 return?
Why is Jerusalem NOW centre stage!!
And I end with a translated quote from our holy book:
"They have eyes but they cannot see. They have ears but they cannot hear. They have hearts but they cannot understand. They are just like cattle"
No there is nothing wrong with your eyes or ears, but if your heart fails 2 understand....I pitty you

Assad, Khaddafi are both Tyrants.
They were brutal against any opposition.
But In this case. In both countries....were a peaceful revolution evolves into an foreign backed & planned armed ressurection for regime-change.
We have 2 condemn the agressor.
In any country... not only Muslim countries.
These people, who are armed directly by Turkey, Qatar an Saud. And indirectly by Nato.
Are the aggressor. Any blood that is spilled is ther fault.
Any civilian hurt is their fault.
Any christian, muslim or atheist hurt, it is their fault.
They fuel the conflict.
That's why I side for the Syrian people, their courage stand against submission 2 the Zionist dominance in the region.
The people have legit demands, but not like this, killing your way through! That is NOT Islamic and should be condemned.

I admit I don't know everything about Quadaffi, but from what I have read about his Green movement, and several other things including using gold backed currency, he was clearly an enemy of the west.
As I said, I def don't know all the details, but in what way was he a tyrant?
