Chapter 9: The Rise from the East — When the Awakened Become the Army

"The rise of an army does not begin with weapons, but with awareness. And they do not come from palaces, but from souls that have been purified by suffering."

Introduction: The Awakening Does Not Begin with Orders, But with Awareness

This chapter is the heartbeat of the entire narrative we have built since Chapter 1. It answers the great questions left by the previous chapters:

• Who will rise after the tribulations of As-Sa’ah?
• How will they rise?
• And from where will this awakening begin?

The answers do not come from the political world or old structures of power. They come from the East — from a land long regarded as the edge of the world, but in truth is the pulse of the end-time awakening. It is here that the seeds sown by Prophet Ibrahim through his prayers will begin to sprout. It is here that various bloodlines reside, including the lineage of Nuh, the lineage of Qantura, the heirs of the Hanif creed, the faithful 9 tribes of Bani Israel, the descendants of Zulkarnain, the tribes of Prophet Dawud and Sulaiman, the remnants of the People of Saba’, and the progeny of Bani Hashim — all of whom will slowly realise their true identity and role.

This awakening does not begin with declarations. It begins with inner awareness. Within the heart. Within souls that have been purified through suffering, collapse, and betrayal. Those who awaken will begin to move — not because they were appointed, but because they can no longer stand to see the world remain in deception.

And this is the new phase we explore in Chapter 9. A phase where the awakened become the army. A phase where the black banners are not raised by nations, but by faith. A phase where the earth that once stored secrets, now begins to release its light in preparation for the arrival of the Imam of the end times.

Section 1: Who Are These People Who Will Rise?

The end-time awakening will not be led by public figures shown on TV or celebrated on social media. It will be led by ordinary people who were never known, never celebrated, and perhaps even cast aside. They are not leaders of institutions, not generals of states, nor prominent religious figures. They are the ikhwan — the true brothers in faith — as mentioned in the hadith of the Prophet ﷺ:

“Indeed, behind you are my brothers who love me deeply, yet have never seen me…”
(Hadith narrated by Ahmad, Al-Hakim, and At-Tabarani)

These individuals rise for two reasons: awareness and the purity of soul. Awareness that emerges after witnessing the collapse of the old world system, and soul-purification that develops after enduring the trials and punishments that have afflicted their own land.

Who are they?

• They are those who have experienced loss, yet never blamed fate.

• They are those who witnessed the world crumble around them, yet maintained prayer and character.

• They are not bound by political ideology, but by a mission from the heavens.

• They are those who were once oppressed but never became oppressors in return.

And they do not speak much. They observe deeply. They know when to stay silent and when to rise.

Section 2: Nusantara — The Land Where the Ikhwan Will Rise

Why does this awakening begin from the Nusantara?

Because it is here that the ancient seeds, long buried and untouched, are waiting to grow. As outlined in the foundational framework of this narrative:

• It was here that the descendants of Prophet Nuh built the ark before the great flood struck.

• It was here that Qantura, the wife of Prophet Ibrahim, and her children were settled.

• It was here that 9 out of the 12 tribes of Bani Israel who remained faithful to Prophet Musa fulfilled the command to distance themselves from the 3 disobedient tribes.

• It was here that Zulkarnain journeyed before travelling to the farthest East to build the wall.

• It was here that Prophet Uzair was sent to guide the faithful Bani Israel.

• It was here that Prophet Dawud forged iron in Sungai Batu, surrounded by mountains and birds.

• It was here that the ants and Hudhud birds in the story of Prophet Sulaiman resided.

• It was here that the original city of Saba’, once called a “paradise,” stood before being destroyed and its people scattered into islands.

And most importantly — it is here that the unfulfilled prayer of Prophet Ibrahim still awaits its realisation. A prayer that his descendants would be a submissive nation, purify the Kaabah, and raise a Messenger among them. In the context of the end-times, the rise of the black banners from the East is the continuation of that prayer.

So who else is more worthy to answer that call, if not the descendants themselves — those who have long lived in this land?

Section 3: They Rise Without Orders, But Through Awareness

This awakening did not occur through instructions issued by any government. It was not born out of political systems or the speeches of world leaders. It emerged from a shockwave of awareness — when the entire structure of the old world proved to be a failure, when disasters struck without help in sight, and when the truth that had once been dismissed finally stood as the only remaining path.

Those who rose did not wait for that truth to be officially declared.
They found it on their own — and because of that, they began to move.

They restructured their lives.
They began to teach others.
They built networks of awareness.
They no longer waited for funding or formal approval.
They understood that this mission was not for worldly comfort, but to continue the path of the Prophets.

And for that reason, they are called the ikhwan — the brothers in faith who never met the Prophet ﷺ, yet love him and carry forward his mission without compromise.

These individuals:

• Do not require high positions, yet they are honoured by those who understand.

• Do not need to be widely known, yet they are known by the heavens.

• Do not seek worldly accolades, but prepare themselves for the final battle.

• May be small in number, yet they are enough to change the course of history.

• May not be prominent in public, yet are remembered in the prayers of the angels.

• Do not shout in the streets, but their voices echo in the hearts of the seekers.

• Are not afraid of human mockery, for their only fear is to be forgotten by the Lord.

Section 4: They Are Not Perfect, But They Are Awake

Their rise does not mean they are sinless. They are not infallible. But they have gone through a process of awakening and purification that brought them closer to God than ever before.

They:

• Abandoned distracting entertainment.

• Rejected a deceitful world system.

• Rebuilt their lives based on the Qur'an and Sunnah, not according to media trends.

They understand that victory does not belong to the physically strongest, but to those whose souls are the purest and whose mission is the most sincere.

They formed small communities.
They supported one another.
They began preparing themselves — not to live luxuriously, but to face the looming punishment and wholeheartedly welcome the coming awakening.

They did not use social status as a measure.
They sought truth, even through tears and blood.

Because they are merely sinners... who long for Paradise.
And they know — to reach it, they must fight against the world and their own selves.

Section 5: The Brotherhood Network — When the Awakened Souls Begin to Unite

This awakening does not occur at random. It happens when awakened souls begin to find one another — not with political agendas, not to form a party, but with one shared mission: to reconnect the path of the Prophets.

They began reaching out in humble ways — sometimes at sacred gatherings, sometimes through a piece of writing, a video, or even a single heartfelt message that sparked something in another soul.

Without formal organizations, without fixed funding, without massive publicity — yet they unite.

And when they unite, a network is formed:

• A network that hides its strength yet spreads truth.

• A network that pledges loyalty not to any individual, but wholeheartedly to the Divine mission.

• A network that fears not insult or slander, but only their own negligence.

They move silently, yet with profound impact. One by one, people begin to exit the old system. One by one, they respond to the call — not because they were ordered, but because something in their soul has been reignited.

This is the beginning of a new system. Not a government, but a system of consciousness and surrender.

“While the world builds power in the name of strength, the Brotherhood builds strength in the name of surrender to God.”

Section 6: The Enemy Begins to Panic — But They Do Not Understand the Source of This Strength

The external enemies — be they military powers, corporate regimes, or mental colonization agents hiding behind education, aid, and entertainment — have started to feel uneasy. They observe, analyze, and even attempt infiltration to understand what is happening.

But they cannot grasp one fundamental truth: this awakening does not emerge through conventional means.

It is not a political revolution. It is not an armed rebellion. It is not a mass demonstration that can be broken up with tear gas.

It is a wave of consciousness. A surge with no central leader to assassinate, no official organization to dismantle, and no clear manifesto to brand as terrorism or extremism.

What they witness is merely a quiet transformation that shakes the system’s foundation:

• Ordinary people start living simply, breaking free from corrupted institutions.

• Small communities begin to become self-sufficient with food, knowledge, and energy.

• Common folk begin to read the Quran with open eyes, not just chanting with closed hearts.

• The youth no longer blindly swallow narratives from mainstream media.

What confounds them even more is that this movement is not led by any mufti, famous scholar, or state-backed institution.

In fact, many of those very individuals will be the first to oppose it.

Because they cannot accept that a grand revival could occur without their endorsement.

They are veiled by titles, status, recognition, and the system that molded them.

Their knowledge is vast, yet their hearts remain veiled.

Their tongues are eloquent, yet their souls are bound to the comforts of this world.

And when they see a group rising outside their authority, their immediate response is to accuse:

• “This is deviance.”

• “This has no scholarly chain of transmission.”

• “This lacks certification.”

• “This is not from us.”

They forget that even Prophet Muhammad SAW was rejected by the religious elite of his time.

That every true revival must first be tested not only by logic, but by the ego of those who think they know better than God.

Both the external enemies and internal critics fail to understand that this strength originates from an awakened spiritual station — not from human strategy.

They try to disrupt with slander. They try to divide through sabotage. They try to buy influence with worldly offers.

But they fail — again and again.

Because the strength of this Brotherhood does not come from the outside.

It comes from within.

• It is born from regretful tears, not from empty laughter.

• It grows in long nights of prayer, not in boardroom strategies.

• It rises from the brokenness of a soul rediscovering its Lord, not from human accolades.

• It is forged in hearts that once fell, but rose again out of love for the truth.

• It is formed by sins sincerely repented for and a fierce desire not to return to them.

• It is fueled by humility before God, yet a firm resolve to uphold His Deen.

• It is awakened by the realization that this world is temporary, and only the Hereafter deserves true victory.

When they fail to penetrate this spiritual fortress, the enemy begins to panic and accuse:

• “They are extremists.” Because they refuse to submit to systems, go against the flow, and reject compromise with falsehood.

• “They are anti-progress.” Because they turn away from destructive technology, mind-numbing entertainment, and indulgent lifestyles.

• “They oppose global peace.” Because they expose the lies behind slogans of peace used to prolong modern colonization.

• “They threaten national unity.” Because they call for unity based on faith — not race, party, or nation.

• “They mislead the ummah.” Because they do not rely on institutional certifications but return directly to the Quran and Sunnah.

• “They are a dangerous underground movement.” Because they do not appear in media, but spread awareness heart-to-heart and night-to-night.

• “They are manipulating religion.” Because they do not profit from religion, the enemy creates a perception that they are abusing it.

But they are wrong.

The Brotherhood does not seek to destroy the world.

They seek to liberate it from the system of deception that has long oppressed humanity.

They are not here to wage war.

They are here to purify.

And that is why the enemy does not know how to erase them.

What terrifies the enemy most is this…

This awareness is spreading.

And it cannot be stopped — because it did not begin from a human command.

It began with a call from the heavens, understood only by hearts that have longed to return to truth.

The Final Section: They Are No Longer Just Readers of History — They Are the Writers of a New One

They are no longer just students of what has been written. They are now writing what will be remembered.

They do not merely quote heroes of the past. They embody the values those heroes died for.

They are the continuation of the path of Tawhid — the path that leads straight to Allah, without distortion or compromise.

They are the carriers of the Black Banners from the East — not as a symbol of rebellion, but as a banner of clarity in a world clouded by deception.

And they are bringing back the truth to its rightful place — the Kaaba, which has been stained by the modern world's false systems.

And when they rise, they will not seek followers.

They will seek bearers of consciousness — those who move because of Allah, not men.

They will seek those willing to sacrifice not for recognition, but because they see the Hereafter drawing nearer every day.

“When they rise, the world will realize that victory does not come from numbers. Victory comes from truth, upheld by those who fear no one but Allah.”

They do not fear death. What they fear is leaving this world without ever having stood for the truth.

They do not seek fame. They seek those with hearts that burn for justice, even if no one sees them.

They are not the chosen by worldly criteria. They are chosen by purification — by the fire of trials that has scorched their past and refined their future.

And when they march, the world will know…

This is not a movement born of politics.

This is a movement born of repentance, clarity, and trust in Allah’s promise.

This is not just another phase of human history.

This is the final chapter of human struggle before the world is given back to its rightful stewards.

Closing to Chapter 9

The next chapter, Chapter 10, will take you into the final field of decision.

There, everything will be tested — whether to surrender or to rise, whether to remain silent or to speak out, whether to die as a victim... or live as a continuation of the prophetic mission.

This is no longer a story.

This is now a call.

And it is reaching you.

Will you answer it?
