In modern warfare both the military and the ideological fronts are at the same level of intensity, as the victory always depends not only on battlefield triumphs, but also on enlisting new adherents and holding to the old ones. And after two years of fight of the “Obama Alliance” against IS in Syria and Iraq there is a clear indication, that Caliph Ibrahim (Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi) is winning on both fronts. The main goal of this article is an attempt to explain reasons underlying the success of ISIS leadership, that allowed the Islamists not only to evade the “degrade and destroy” strategy of the coalition, but also to build a new state, in the light of the context of Islamic eschatological concepts. To reach this goal, we strive to not only understand the perspectives of this newly-founded state and possible forecasts for its sustainability, but also to look into the reasons of IS attractiveness for large groups of people from a variety of countries and regions, through the lens of Islamic eschatology.</abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru">История в очередной раз показывает, что никто не может сражаться против того, чего не понимает. В современной войне боевые действия и идеологическое противостояние находятся на одном уровне по интенсивности, а победа зависит не только от триумфа на поле боя, но и от умения привлечь новых сторонников и сохранить старых. И после двух лет борьбы «Альянса Обамы» против Исламского Государства в Сирии и Ираке есть признаки того, что халиф Ибрагим (Абу Бакр аль-Багдади) побеждает на обоих фронтах. Основной целью данной статьи является попытка объяснить причины, лежащие в основе успеха руководства Исламского Государства, что позволило исламистам не только избежать стратегии «разрушить и уничтожить», проводимой коалицией, но и построить новое государство в духе исламских эсхатологических концепций. Для достижения этой цели мы стремимся не только понять перспективы этого вновь созданного государства и сделать прогноз относительно его долговечности, но и разобраться в причинах привлекательности идеологии Исламского Государства для больших групп людей из разных стран и регионов через призму исламской эсхатологии.</trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>Islam</kwd><kwd>Islamic State (ISIS)</kwd><kwd>Islamic eschatology</kwd><kwd>Syria</kwd><kwd>Iraq</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>ислам</kwd><kwd>Исламское Государство (ИГИЛ)</kwd><kwd>исламская эсхатология</kwd><kwd>Ирак</kwd><kwd>Сирия</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Abu Dawud as-Sigistani.
