This prophecy is aout 1,300 years ago, but read the whole article ... all Muslims are not in agreement
Same has been said about every "end times" scenerio, i.e., 9/11 was then "predicted by Nostrodomus(sp?)" hundreds of years ago, and said that it would start a war that would bring about the end times." These "urban legends" have been roaming around since before the interwebs.

By the way: what's a Muslim prophet? About $3.95 after taxes.
