Nostradamus.

Prophecy is easy when your followers are idiots.

Are you really that stupid, guys ?

Muhammad was talking to people who lived fourteen centuries ago, they had no idea what "governments and corporations" would mean, had Muhammad used these terms. Muhammad's contemporaries know what herding and goats mean, they didn't know much about corporations and embassies. So the expression "barefoot destitute goat herds" merely refers to the geographical area where his prediction is supposed to happen, because, obviously, nobody builds things while barefoot.

It's really stupid to try and interpret the words "barefoot" and "destitute" literally, even more so when thay are attempts of translation from their more expressive equivalents in Arabic.

How is that? Are you saying that what's below has no basis in reality? Because that's what usually refer to when talking about magnificient tall buildings.

If the prophecy isn’t to be interpreted literally, there’s no way it can be ‘clear and precise.’ One could make the case that the Prophet was referring to Scandinavian goat herders, or Mongolian shepherds vying to build the biggest yurt.

Don’t take it personally - all religionists want prophecies to be true, so they look and look and look until they find something that they imagine will fit the bill.  Since it never quite fits, they resort to twisted meanings to file off the rough edges (much like you’re doing here).

It’s understandable, I suppose - Muhammad wouldn’t be Muhammad if you didn’t convince yourself he had magical powers.
