Neither Islam nor the Roman Catholic church is mentioned explicitly. Some "scholars" are able to weave scripture together to make their case for the whore mentioned in Revelation to be the RCC, and it's an exercise that requires a great deal of mental gymnastics to pull off. Others, and the name that springs to mind right away is Walid Shoebat, makes a case that Islam is the one mentioned in Revelation, and even makes the case that the symbol for Islam is what was on the early scrolls, and hence the Muslims that wear the bandana and arm band of "In the name of Allah" are wearing the literal "mark of the beast". Again...lots of mental gymnastics. Still, somewhat thought-provoking and interesting to read about and listen to.
Well, yes and know and yes HAHA
a. Islam came from the worship of the Moon god Sin<---mane changed by Muhammad
b. Ishmael's hand will be against everybody<--Arabs came from Ishmael and Islam, Muslims from Arabs
c. I believe the 12th Imam/Madhi is the beast of Revelation and Little Horn of Daniel A.K.A. Anti-Christ (so called)

The whore of babylon was apostate 1st century Jerusalem:
Mat 23:37 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!
Mat 23:38 Behold, your house is left unto you desolate.
Neither the followers of Moh or Roman Catholics "killed the prophets".
Mat 23:37 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!

Neither the followers of Moh or Roman Catholics "killed the prophets".
fit into it what you want 
I believe Islam was absolutely mentioned in the Bible. According to the Bible the nations that surround Israel will gather together to destroy it. The antichrist will be a religious man, and not an atheist. He will honor a single god, and he will make war for it.
Daniel 11-
37 He will show no regard for the gods of his ancestors or for the one desired by women, nor will he regard any god, but will exalt himself above them all. 38 Instead of them, he will honor a god of fortresses; a god unknown to his ancestors he will honor with gold and silver, with precious stones and costly gifts. 39 He will attack the mightiest fortresses with the help of a foreign god and will greatly honor those who acknowledge him. He will make them rulers over many people and will distribute the land at a price.
According to 1 John 2:22, the antichrist denies the Father and the Son. Alot of people will say "that could be anyone", as only Christians believe in the Father and the Son, but really think about the context of that. Its not saying that the antichrist will not believe in it, but that they will deny it. He will say that "God has no Son". Keep in mind Daniel said that he honors a god, not gods.
Quran 4:171-
"O People of the Scripture, do not commit excess in your religion or say about Allah except the truth. The Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary, was but a messenger of Allah and His word which He directed to Mary and a soul [created at a command] from Him. So believe in Allah and His messengers. And do not say, "Three"; desist - it is better for you. Indeed, Allah is but one God. Exalted is He above having a son. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. And sufficient is Allah as Disposer of affairs."
Keep in mind, according to that verse in 1 John 2:22, the antichrist will not be a Catholic. Catholics believe in the Father and the Son.
The antichrist will also not be a Jew. Both Zechariah 12 and Romans 11 tell us that on the last day, the Jews will accept Him. The Jews denying Jesus was always meant to happen, it is Gods will that they do not accept Jesus. The fact that they deny Him does not make them Gods enemy.
There are many verses in the OT about the coming antichrist, and many of them refer to him as a middle eastern man. The king of babylon, the assyrian, the chief prince of meshch and tabul.
And I definitely believe that the prophecy of "the whore of babylon" is referring to Mecca. Edom is modern day Saudi Arabia. And Jeremiah 49 tells us that the Lord will destroy Edom entirely, that no one will live there again-
7 Concerning Edom:
This is what the Lord Almighty says:
“Is there no longer wisdom in Teman?
Has counsel perished from the prudent?
Has their wisdom decayed?
8 Turn and flee, hide in deep caves,
you who live in Dedan,
for I will bring disaster on Esau
at the time when I punish him.
9 If grape pickers came to you,
would they not leave a few grapes?
If thieves came during the night,
would they not steal only as much as they wanted?
10 But I will strip Esau bare;
I will uncover his hiding places,
so that he cannot conceal himself.
His armed men are destroyed,
also his allies and neighbors,
so there is no one to say,
11 ‘Leave your fatherless children; I will keep them alive.
Your widows too can depend on me.’”
12 This is what the Lord says: “If those who do not deserve to drink the cup must drink it, why should you go unpunished? You will not go unpunished, but must drink it. 13 I swear by myself,” declares the Lord, “that Bozrah will become a ruin and a curse, an object of horror and reproach; and all its towns will be in ruins forever.”
14 I have heard a message from the Lord;
an envoy was sent to the nations to say,
“Assemble yourselves to attack it!
Rise up for battle!”
15 “Now I will make you small among the nations,
despised by mankind.
16 The terror you inspire
and the pride of your heart have deceived you,
you who live in the clefts of the rocks,
who occupy the heights of the hill.
Though you build your nest as high as the eagle’s,
from there I will bring you down,”
declares the Lord.
17 “Edom will become an object of horror;
all who pass by will be appalled and will scoff
because of all its wounds.
18 As Sodom and Gomorrah were overthrown,
along with their neighboring towns,”
says the Lord,
“so no one will live there;
no people will dwell in it.
19 “Like a lion coming up from Jordan’s thickets
to a rich pastureland,
I will chase Edom from its land in an instant.
Who is the chosen one I will appoint for this?
Who is like me and who can challenge me?
And what shepherd can stand against me?”
20 Therefore, hear what the Lord has planned against Edom,
what he has purposed against those who live in Teman:
The young of the flock will be dragged away;
their pasture will be appalled at their fate.
21 At the sound of their fall the earth will tremble;
their cry will resound to the Red Sea.
22 Look! An eagle will soar and swoop down,
spreading its wings over Bozrah.
In that day the hearts of Edom’s warriors
will be like the heart of a woman in labor.
According to Revelation 18, the city will have traders from the sea who cry for its destruction-
“Every sea captain, and all who travel by ship, the sailors, and all who earn their living from the sea, will stand far off. 18 When they see the smoke of her burning, they will exclaim, ‘Was there ever a city like this great city?’ 19 They will throw dust on their heads, and with weeping and mourning cry out:
“‘Woe! Woe to you, great city,
where all who had ships on the sea
became rich through her wealth!
In one hour she has been brought to ruin!’
20 “Rejoice over her, you heavens!
Rejoice, you people of God!
Rejoice, apostles and prophets!
For God has judged her
with the judgment she imposed on you.”
[h=3][/h] And it tells us that the city will be completely destroyed-
With such violence
the great city of Babylon will be thrown down,
never to be found again.
22 The music of harpists and musicians, pipers and trumpeters,
will never be heard in you again.
No worker of any trade
will ever be found in you again.
The sound of a millstone
will never be heard in you again.
23 The light of a lamp
will never shine in you again.
The voice of bridegroom and bride
will never be heard in you again.
Your merchants were the world’s important people.
By your magic spell all the nations were led astray.
24 In her was found the blood of prophets and of God’s holy people,
of all who have been slaughtered on the earth.”
Is there a city that garners more idolatry than Mecca?
And lastly, Islam commands violence against the Jews. Muhammad himself was recorded in the hadiths as saying- "The Hour will not be established until you fight with the Jews, and the stone behind which a Jew will be hiding will say. "O Muslim! There is a Jew hiding behind me, so kill him.".
Everytime I see a site that tries to disprove the teachings that Islam is where we should be looking, I always see comments such as "thats where the Catholics want you to look at". But the Catholic church isnt the antichrist. The antichrist worships a different god than God and denies the Son. We know that the Catholic church teaches unbliblical things, such as the worship of Mary. But that doesnt make it the antichrist.
I strongly believe that Islam is the antichrist religion. The antichrist is religious, worships a single god and denies the Father and Son. He will kill those who do not worship the image of the beast, there is a religion in the world right now that kills people for not worshipping their god-
Quran 8:12-1312. (Remember) when your Lord inspired the angels, "Verily, I am with you, so keep firm those who have believed. I will cast terror into the hearts of those who have disbelieved, so strike them over the necks, and smite over all their fingers and toes."13. This is because they defied and disobeyed Allah and His Messenger. And whoever defies and disobeys Allah and His Messenger, then verily, Allah is Severe in punishment.
The Prophet said: Three things are the roots of faith: to refrain from (killing) a person who utters, "There is no god but Allah" and not to declare him unbeliever whatever sin he commits, and not to excommunicate him from Islam for his any action; and jihad will be performed continuously since the day Allah sent me as a prophet until the day the last member of my community will fight with the Dajjal (Antichrist). The tyranny of any tyrant and the justice of any just (ruler) will not invalidate it. One must have faith in Divine decree. -https://sunnah.com/abudawud/15/56

This is the oldest 'potential' reference to the ancestors of Islam. There are a few clues in this passage that I came across a while back. The Midianites were Ismaelites (Ismael = eventual Islamic lineage). The "Star and Crescent" is used today as the logo for Islam. Don't necessarily quote me on the below. I just found these few coincidences in my bible study. Feel free to research further.
Judges 8v18 - 28
[SUP]18 [/SUP]And he said to Zebah and Zalmunna, “What kind of men were they whom you killed at Tabor?”
So they answered, “As you are, so were they; each one resembled the son of a king.”
[SUP]19 [/SUP]Then he said, “They were my brothers, the sons of my mother. As the Lord lives, if you had let them live, I would not kill you.” [SUP]20 [/SUP]And he said to Jether his firstborn, “Rise, kill them!” But the youth would not draw his sword; for he was afraid, because he was still a youth.
[SUP]21 [/SUP]So Zebah and Zalmunna said, “Rise yourself, and kill us; for as a man is, so is his strength.” So Gideon arose and killed Zebah and Zalmunna, and took the crescent ornaments that were on their camels’ necks.
[h=3]Gideon’s Ephod[/h][SUP]22 [/SUP]Then the men of Israel said to Gideon, “Rule over us, both you and your son, and your grandson also; for you have delivered us from the hand of Midian.”
[SUP]23 [/SUP]But Gideon said to them, “I will not rule over you, nor shall my son rule over you; the Lord shall rule over you.” [SUP]24 [/SUP]Then Gideon said to them, “I would like to make a request of you, that each of you would give me the earrings from his plunder.” For they had golden earrings, because they were Ishmaelites.
[SUP]25 [/SUP]So they answered, “We will gladly give them.” And they spread out a garment, and each man threw into it the earrings from his plunder. [SUP]26 [/SUP]Now the weight of the gold earrings that he requested was one thousand seven hundred shekels of gold, besides the crescent ornaments, pendants, and purple robes which were on the kings of Midian, and besides the chains that were around their camels’ necks. [SUP]27 [/SUP]Then Gideon made it into an ephod and set it up in his city, Ophrah. And all Israel played the harlot with it there. It became a snare to Gideon and to his house.
[SUP]28 [/SUP]Thus Midian was subdued before the children of Israel, so that they lifted their heads no more. And the country was quiet for forty years in the days of Gideon.
