And when they commit a Fahisha (evil deed, going round the Ka'bah in naked state, every kind of unlawful sexual intercourse, etc.), they say: "We found our fathers doing it, and Allah has commanded us of it." Say: "Nay, Allah never commands of Fahisha. Do you say of Allah what you know not?
Quran 7:28
Hubal-(Arabic:-هُبَل) was a moon-god[1]worshipped in-pre-Islamic Arabia, notably at the-Kaaba-in-Mecca. His idol was a human figure, believed to control acts of-divination, which was in the form of-tossing arrows-before the statue. The direction in which the arrows pointed answered questions asked of the idol.
The origins of the cult of Hubal are uncertain, but the name is found in inscriptions from-Nabataea-in northern Arabia (across the territory of modern Syria-and-Iraq). The specific powers and identity attributed to Hubal are equally unclear.
Access to the idol was controlled by the Quraysh tribe. The god's devotees fought against followers of the-Islamicprophet-Muhammad-during the-Battle of Badr-in 624 AD. After Muhammad entered Mecca in 630 CE, he removed the statue of Hubal from the Kaaba along with the idols of all the other pagan gods.
A tale recorded by Ibn Al-Kalbi hasMuhammad's grandfather-Abdul Mutallib-vowing to sacrifice one of his ten children. He consulted the arrows of Hubal to find out which child he should choose. The arrows pointed to his sonAbd-Allah, the future father of Muhammad. However, he was saved when 100 camels were sacrificed in his place. According to-Tabari, Abdul Mutallib later also brought the infant Muhammad himself before the image.[5]
After defeat by Muhammad's forces at the-Battle of Badr,-Abu Sufyan ibn Harb, leader of the Quraysh army, is said to have called on Hubal for support to gain victory in their next battle, saying "Show your superiority, Hubal".[6]-When Muhammad conquered-Mecca-in 630, he removed and had destroyed the statue of Hubal, along with the other 360 images at the Kaaba, and dedicated the structure to Allah.[7]
Islamists have invoked the figure of Hubal in the ideological struggles of the post Cold War era. In Islamism Hubal has been used as a symbol of modern forms of "idol worship". According to Adnan A. Musallam, this can be traced to one of the founders of radical Islamism,-Sayyid Qutb, who used the label to attack secular rulers such asNasser, seen as creating "idols" based on un-Islamic Western and Marxist ideologies.
In 2001,-Osama bin Laden called America the modern Hubal. He referred to allies of America as "hypocrites" who "all stood behind the head of global unbelief, the Hubal of the modern age, America and its supporters".[18][19]-Al Qaeda's then number two,-Ayman al-Zawahiri, repeated the phrase ("hubal al-'asr") in describing America, during his November 2008 message following Barack Obama's election to the presidency.[20]-The analogy may have been passed on to Bin Laden by one of his teachers,-Abdullah Azzam.[21]

Then Abu Sufyan asked thrice, "Is Muhammad present amongst these people?" The Prophet ordered his companions not to answer him. Then he asked thrice, "Is the son of Abu Quhafa present amongst these people?" He asked again thrice, "Is the son of Al-Khattab present amongst these people?" He then returned to his companions and said, "As for these (men), they have been killed."
'Umar could not control himself and said (to Abu Sufyan), "You told a lie, by Allah! O enemy of Allah! All those you have mentioned are alive, and the thing which will make you unhappy is still there."-
Abu Sufyan said, "Our victory today is a counterbalance to yours in the battle of Badr, and in war (the victory) is always undecided and is shared in turns by the belligerents, and you will find some of your (killed) men mutilated, but I did not urge my men to do so, yet I do not feel sorry for their deed" After that he started reciting cheerfully,
uloo hubal "O Hubal, be high!
On that the Prophet said (to his companions), "Why don't you answer him back?" They said, "O Allah's Apostle What shall we say?"
He said,
quloo Allah a'azza wa 'ajal "Say, Allah is Higher and more Sublime."-
(Then) Abu Sufyan said,
lanaa al 'uzza wa laa 'uzza lakum "We have the (idol) Al Uzza, and you have no Uzza."
The Prophet said (to his companions), "Why don't you answer him back?" They asked, "O Allah's Apostle! What shall we say?"
He said,
Quloo Allahu maulaanaa wa laa maulaa lakum "Say Allah is our Helper and you have no helper."
:But Satan whispered evil to him: he said, "O Adam! shall I lead thee to the Tree of Eternity and to a kingdom that never decays?"
Quran 20:120
Uqba bin Amr said to Hudhaifa (radi Allahu anhuma), "Won't you relate to us of what you have heard from Rasul Allah?"
He said, "I heard him saying, "When Ad-Dajjal appears, he will have fire and water along with him. What the people will consider as cold water, will be fire that will burn. So, if anyone of you comes across this, he should fall into the thing which will appear to him as fire, for in reality, it will be fresh cold water." [Sahih Bukhari]
Dajjal is the ultimate liar. He claims to be Allah in order to cause Muslims to commit Kufr (apostasize). He threatens, kills, decieves and tempts people in various ways, all so that they leave Islam. Even the water and fire with him are lies. Muhammad (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) told us that should one have to choose between the two they should choose that which appears to be fire for in reality it will be water, while that which appears to be cool water will be fire.-Another hadith in Sahih Bukhari mentions that Dajjal “will bring with him what will resemble Hell and Paradise, and what he will call Paradise will actually be Hell.”
Dajjal is the ultimate imposter.
What he brings is just to test humankind to see who believes in him and who remains steadfast in their belief in Allah (subhana wa ta’ala). True Paradise and Hell are with Allah (subhana wa ta’ala) alone and only He has the power to put people where they truly belong.

Earth Beast
Near the Ka'aba, there is a mountain called Safaa. Near the Day of Judgement Safaa Mountain will explode. An Earth Beast will come out. When the Hajjis see this, some will be scared, and some won't be.
The Earth Beast will be a very strange beast. It will talk to people and will traverse the whole earth with great speed.
It will point out hypocrites and he will point out true Muslims.
Will have Hazrat Musa's (alayhi salaam) stick, and will have Hazrat Sulaiman's (alayhi salaam) ring. With Hazrat Musa's (as) stick will put a mark on the fore-heads of the believers. With that mark, the faces of believers will shine.
On the necks or noses of the non-believers, it will put a black seal with the ring of Hazrat Sulaiman's (as) which will darken their faces.
After completing this job the strange creature will disappear.

I stood on the shore of the sea. And I saw a beast coming out of the sea. It had ten horns and seven heads, with ten crowns on its horns, and on each head a blasphemous name.-
2The beast I saw resembled a leopard,
but had feet like those of a bear
and a mouth like that of a lion.
The dragon gave the beast his power and his throne and great authority.
-3One of the heads of the beast seemed to have had a fatal wound, but the fatal wound had been healed. The whole world was filled with wonder and followed the beast.
-4People worshiped the dragon because he had given authority to the beast, and they also worshiped the beast and asked, “Who is like the beast? Who can wage war against it?”5The beast was given a mouth to utter proud words and blasphemies and to exercise its authority for forty-two months.-6It opened its mouth to blaspheme God, and to slander his name and his dwelling place and those who live in heaven.-7It was given power to wage war against God’s holy people and to conquer them. And it was given authority over every tribe, people, language and nation.-8All inhabitants of the earth will worship the beast—all whose names have not been written in the Lamb’s book of life, the Lamb who was slain from the creation of the world.b9Whoever has ears, let them hear.10“If anyone is to go into captivity,into captivity they will go.If anyone is to be killedc-with the sword,with the sword they will be killed.”d This calls for patient endurance and faithfulness on the part of God’s people.
The Beast out of the Earth
11Then I saw a second beast, coming out of the earth. It had two horns like a lamb, but it spoke like a dragon.-12It exercised all the authority of the first beast on its behalf, and made the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast, whose fatal wound had been healed.13And it performed great signs, even causing fire to come down from heaven to the earth in full view of the people.-14Because of the signs it was given power to perform on behalf of the first beast, it deceived the inhabitants of the earth. It ordered them to set up an image in honor of the beast who was wounded by the sword and yet lived.-15The second beast was given power to give breath to the image of the first beast, so that the image could speak and cause all who refused to worship the image to be killed.-16It also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads,-17so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name.18This calls for wisdom. Let the person who has insight calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man.eThat number is 666.

1Then I looked, and there before me was the Lamb, standing on Mount Zion, and with him 144,000
who had his name and his Father’s name written on their foreheads.-
2And I heard a sound from heaven like the roar of rushing waters and like a loud peal of thunder. The sound I heard was like that of harpists playing their harps.-3And they sang a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and the elders. No one could learn the song except the 144,000 who had been redeemed from the earth.-4These are those who did not defile themselves with women, for they remained virgins. They follow the Lamb wherever he goes. They were purchased from among mankind and offered as firstfruits to God and the Lamb.-5No lie was found in their mouths; they are blameless.The Three Angels
6Then I saw another angel flying in midair, and he had the eternal gospel to proclaim to those who live on the earth—to every nation, tribe, language and people.-
7He said in a loud voice,
“Fear God and give him glory, because the hour of his judgment has come. Worship him who made the heavens, the earth, the sea and the springs of water.”
8A second angel followed and said, “ ‘Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the Great,’a-which made all the nations drink the maddening wine of her adulteries.”9A third angel followed them and said in a loud voice: “If anyone worships the beast and its image and receives its mark on their forehead or on their hand,-10they, too, will drink the wine of God’s fury, which has been poured full strength into the cup of his wrath. They will be tormented with burning sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and of the Lamb.-11And the smoke of their torment will rise for ever and ever. There will be no rest day or night for those who worship the beast and its image, or for anyone who receives the mark of its name.”-12This calls for patient endurance on the part of the people of God who keep his commands and remain faithful to Jesus.13Then I heard a voice from heaven say, “Write this: Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on.”“Yes,” says the Spirit, “they will rest from their labor, for their deeds will follow them.”
From the book of revelation - (what remains) previous scripture.
Bear in mind that news of future events or interpretation of dreams cannot override God's commands and just laws to mankind through his final messenger Muhammad :saws:
The people of Moses made, in his absence, out of their ornaments, the image of calf, (for worship): it seemed to low: did they not see that it could neither speak to them, nor show them the way? They took it for worship and they did wrong.
When they repented, and saw that they had erred, they said: "If our Lord have not mercy upon us and forgive us, we shall indeed be of those who perish."
