Where is this world heading?

Regarding the state of the world and it's Islamic context if there is one, how does this current state of the world fit into the Islamic narrative?

We know the world is moving towards complete atheism and one world culture due to globalism. It's dominated by super powers and the capitalist economy. It seems like it's going to be this way as we move on.

Islamically, what can we make out of this? It seems like Muslims are moving away from their culture and embracing the same popular culture. Most Muslim nations are like this today, even if they politically don't seem like it. So what can we expect according to Islam?

It seems Muslims are going to move the same way as others have in the past, although there's ongoing violence erupting in the middle eastern region. This is common though as it has been in the past and the outcome didn't change. Are we really going to see a change of events in the future or will we just anticipate it like others have in the past who are now dead?

What does Islam tell us? Because it seems like popular lifestyle will take over and the Muslims will soon join this one world system.

    sadly ur correct

    majority of muslims want to adopt the western culture and lifestyle

    we cannot compromise on our deen as our deen is complete and perfect

    but with that said, there will always be a few who will remain steadfast on the deen and will stand firm

    this is promise of Allah swt and Islam will remain till end of time

    Islam if it all survives will be a much more enlightned version than it is today.

    This business of a perfect religion where nothing can be changed even by a hairs breadth and blind bigotry will have to go.

    Islam will buried by Muslims if they do not reform.

    keeping up with the world's changes and what it provides us to have a more comfortable life, is not a bad thing

    but we should not forget to keep our believes and unity view firmly and opposing the new world order in which some people know themselves as better ones and want to rule over others, besides they try to omit Allah from every aspects of our lives and forcing it to just be in our privates and not in our lifestyle and our judgments and decisions (like what they did to Christianity)

    We should act on the base of what Allah order us in Quran and Sunnah (obeying what prophet said, did and agreed on it). And of course we must not loose hope, cause Allah said in Quran:

    21:105 "and certainly we wrote in the book after the reminder that (as for) the land, my righteous servants shall inherit it"

    as we can see, Allah said that surely the world would be the world of Him and His righteous servants.

    and here:

    9:32 "they desire to put out the light of allah with their mouths, and allah will not consent save to perfect his light, though the unbelievers are averse"

    it means that they can do nothing to oppose the God Will, whether the world and its people seems to go on their path or not, they can not oppose and cover the truth; they'll be defeated cause it's the God Will

    and here:

    9:33 "he it is who sent his messenger with guidance and the religion of truth, that he might cause it to prevail over all religions, though the polytheists may be averse"

    So we should act and correct ourselves on the base of Allah's orders and have hope

    as we correct ourselves and walk in the right path, people around us would be affected and attracted to the way we go through

    I hope my answer was what you meant and asked :)

    May Allah bless us all and hold us together with His best followers and His righteous servants in Paradise :)
