Will Islam out live oil?

Once Oil runs out or is replaced the wests interest in the middle east will go. It will just be a dusty hole with nothing of interest, inhabited by people with a 10th century culture. Without the evil interfering westerners to hate will Islam lose its unifying force?Will Islam out live oil?
I think you should think a little more, and phrase your question. Maybe replace Islam with Mideast, or something. Good luckWill Islam out live oil?
Islam was around before people cared about oil, and there's no reason to believe it will not be around after oil runs out.
no
I bet you've never been to the Middle East...





It's quite obvious to me that your ignorance outshines you by asking that question...
Islam will not outlive oil, but not for the reasons you put forth.


With all the worry about ';green,'; and depletion of natural resources, and fossil fuels, we tend to forget what the Bible teaches us about this earth.





God made this planet to support mankind until He gets ready to re-make it into a ';new heavens and a new earth.';





Isaiah 65:17 聽露For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.


Isaiah 66:22 聽For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, saith the LORD, so shall your seed and your name remain.


2 Peter 3:13 聽Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.





Until that time, mankind will be sustained, and we'll have enough of ...whatever... (even through flood, famine, war, and other disasters) until God is ready to remake it. However, that happens only after the kingdoms of this world will have been subdued, and the false religions (including Islam) will be destroyed. From that reality, we see that ';oil'; and other necessities will outlast Islam.
islam existed even before oil was used to power candles.





islam exists in different parts of the world that dont even have oil





1 in 5 people in this world is Muslim. many others are muslim (note: Muslim vs muslim)





cheers
Islam will last until the end of time Insha'Allah!
Ummm, it was here for centuries before oil. It will likely exist after oil. Hopefully it will not have the influence that it has to today. I suspect this is one of the reasons that Iran wants nuclear power/weapons as much as they as do.
Unifying force of Islam is Islam itself not oil. In this period of great turbulation Islam is still appealing to others despite such forceful propaganda against Islam.





We have our own culture based on beliefs, morals and spirituality. Western culture is nothing more than lack of culture and exploitation of weak.





So, no happy time for you but only by embracing Islam.
I think it will, and outlast America too. If tomorrow the Arab nations decided they want to be paid for oil in Euros instead of dollars your economy etc would be history. That's the truth. Think about it.
yes it will, the koran will always be there, plus there probably will be a caliphate happening that may unify all middl eastern countries, so they should be fine
