A disturbing sermon delivered on November 21, 2025, at the East Plano Islamic Center (EPIC) has raised new concerns about radicalization inside U.S. religious institutions. Islamic scholar Abdul Rahman Idris publicly called on Allah to “take revenge upon the enemies of Islam,” escalating his rhetoric by imploring God to “destroy the accursed Zionists” and to “shake the earth beneath their feet.” While framed as a prayer, the message unmistakably echoed the language of militant extremism—blending theology with political hostility in a way that emboldens hatred, deepens community divides, and targets Jews under the banner of religious devotion.

This incident reflects a troubling trend: radical sermons surfacing in American mosques and Islamic centers, normalizing rhetoric that demonizes Israel and fuels anti-Jewish sentiment. As antisemitism surges globally and the Middle East remains on the brink, such calls for divine vengeance serve as spiritualized incitement, encouraging followers to view geopolitical conflict through the lens of cosmic holy war. For watchers of Bible prophecy, this escalating hostility fits the prophetic patterns Scripture outlines—where the nations rage (Psalm 2) and hatred against Israel intensifies in the last days. The spiritual battlefield is becoming clearer, and moments like this remind us why vigilance, discernment, and truth are more necessary than ever.
