Underground churches in Northern
Africa are growing, despite
intense persecution.
When Islamic fundamentalists in
one North African country
discovered the time and place of
an underground church meeting,
they went there and waited to kill
the Christians.

106. NORTHERN AFRICA
But when the time came, the place remained
empty. Not one of the 65 people expected to
attend the meeting turned up, not even the
preacher who had been specially invited!
Every single one had been prevented from
coming by some unexpected event, from a flat
tire to a family visit! God coordinated and
performed 65 miracles, saving the lives of 65
people, and demonstrating that His hand is over
North African Christians!

114. KORAN 9.29
―Fight those who do not believe in
Allah, nor in the latter day, nor do
they prohibit what Allah and His
Apostle have prohibited, nor follow
the religion of truth, out of those
who have been given the Book,
until they pay the tax in
acknowledgment of superiority and
they are in a state of subjection.‖

115. KORAN 9.30
―And the Jews say: Uzair is the
son of Allah; and the
Christians say: The Messiah
is the son of Allah;
…may Allah destroy them…‖

116. KORAN 9.31
―They have taken their
doctors of law and their
monks for lords besides
Allah, and (also) the
Messiah son of
Marium…‖

117. KORAN 9.33
―He (Allah) it is Who sent His
Apostle with guidance and
the religion of truth, that He
might cause it to prevail over
all religions, though the
polytheists (Christians) may
be averse.‖

118. KORAN 3.12
Say to those who
disbelieve: You
shall be
vanquished, and
driven together to
hell; and evil is the
resting-place.

prophet to have

unbelievers and the
hypocrites and deal
sternly
with them. Hell shall be
their home, evil their fate‖

121. ANJAM CHOUDRY
quot;[Our organization] Al-Muhajiroun
has one goal. We would like to
see the implementation of Sharia
Law in the UK, then Europe, and
then America. Under our rule
this country would be known as
the Islamic Republic of Great
Britain. ―

122. ANJAM CHOUDRY
―To do that...we are making a
conscious effort to recruit large
numbers of non-Muslims. Whites,
Chinese, Japanese, and Indians in
this country are bored with the
capitalist system. It's a bankrupt
ideal. We have found that young
non-Muslims, like our Asian
followers, want something new. You
can tell that from the anti-
globalization movement. ―

123. ANJAM CHOUDRY
―So we're offering them
something pure: a
religious mission, the
values of Sharia and
Jihad.‖

124. NORTHERN INDIA
In late 1993 in a Muslim village, the only

The villagers were totally uninterested until
