Does Qur’an 9:11 prophesy that “the wrath of the eagle” will cleanse the lands of the Arabs?

Bald eagle, not in Arabia — An actual photograph of the very eagle prophesied at Qur’an 9:11. In this Wikimedia Commons photograph, the eagle soars above the hot and arid deserts of the Arabian peninsula.

No!

No, it doesn’t!

No!

Snopes does a workmanlike job on this utterly bogus claim:

I’ve been confronted with this alleged prophecy more times than I can count. There is no merit in it. None. Zero. Zilch. Zippo. Nada. The word eagle (or, more precisely, its Arabic equivalent) never occurs anywhere in the Qur’an, let alone at 9:11.

Come on, folks. Look at the reference: 9/11. Really?
