The Islamic MARK OF THE BEAST! The Mark called a zabiba, or Muslim prayer bump is basically a callus or scaly patch of skin some Muslims develop on their foreheads by hitting it too hard on the ground while prostrate in worship of allah. Some even place stones on their rugs to develop the mark quicker. According to the Bible, the Mark of the Beast is a mark that is put on the foreheads or the hand, that essentially condemns someone to Hell. On the Islamic side, the Muslims have picked up on this tradition, except that in Muslim tradition the Beast is a good guy and he marks the foreheads of all true Muslims, and in essence Muslims are desiring that they would receive the Mark of the Beast. The Beast, according to Islamic tradition, is a literal beast that comes up out of the earth, sometimes called the Mahdi. For devout Muslims, these scars are a sign of piety, indicating strict adherence to their required five-times-a-day prayers. Many Islamic religious leaders seem to have the indelible marks on their foreheads. Such a scar is known in the medical world as a Clavus, or commonly called a “prayer callus.” They are caused by repeated bowing of the head onto a prayer carpet, most likely a dirty prayer carpet judging by the extent of the scarring, also the use of a stone is sometimes added. Maceration and secondary fungal or bacterial infection are a common overlying feature in the soft clavi, or calluses. Christian prophesy talks about the “mark of the Beast,” and some have speculated that it might be some futuristic bar code tattooed on to everyone’s forehead for identity and financial transactions, or perhaps it is some sort of warning symbol that the person is evil. Here is paraphrase of the text in Revelations 14 and 16 says: “Whoever worships the beast and its image and receives the mark on his forehead or on his hand will himself drink God’s wine, the wine of His fury, which He has poured at full strength into his cup of His anger! . . . Terrible and painful sores appeared on those who had the mark of the beast and on those who had worshiped its image.” Re-read the book of Apocalypse (Revelation) and ponder the things the Muslims do…. See if you see the connections for yourself.
