This marks the first time a major Islamic nation has conducted mass expulsions of fellow Muslims under the guise of national security, creating an unprecedented religious-political divide within the Islamic world. The scale - 800,000 expelled from a 4-million-strong community - represents the largest faith-based displacement between Muslim nations in modern times.
Iran Expels 800K Afghans: Islamic Republic's Mass Religious Purge
📰 What Happened
Iran has expelled approximately 800,000 Afghan refugees ahead of a July 2025 deadline, targeting an estimated 4 million-strong Afghan community within its borders. The Iranian government, through state media Press TV, justifies the mass expulsion as a security measure, claiming some Afghans were caught engaging in espionage. The policy requires all undocumented Afghans to leave the country or face arrest, marking one of the largest forced migrations in the region's recent history.
📖 Prophetic Significance
The expulsion of 800,000 Afghan Muslims by Iran reveals a growing pattern of religious deception where Islamic nations weaponize faith for political ends. Iran's use of state media (Press TV) to justify the expulsion on security grounds while targeting co-religionists demonstrates the prophesied 'brother against brother' conflict. This mass expulsion of 4 million Afghan Muslims by a self-proclaimed Islamic theocracy fulfills warnings about religious authorities becoming agents of persecution. The scale and systematic nature of this purge, justified through religious-political rhetoric, aligns with prophecies about faith being used as a weapon of control and division in the last days.
