Hazrat Mahdi (as) will be an orphan



(Hazrat Mahdi (as) will be an orphan)
Hazrat Mahdi (as) will be an orphan. (Sheikh Muhammad ibn Ibrahim Numani, al-Ghaybah al-Numani, p. 176)

As it is known, the Prophet Jesus (as) also has no father. He is therefore also an orphan. In addition, the Prophet Jesus (as) and Hazrat Mahdi (as) share the same line of descent. The Prophet Abraham (as) is thus the father of both. The words “their father was one of the righteous” refer to the Prophet Abraham (as). In another verse of the Qur’an this characteristic of the Prophet Abraham (as) is described as follows:

We gave him (Abraham) good in this world and IN THE HEREAFTER HE WILL BE ONE OF THE RIGHTEOUS. (Surat an-Nahl, 122)

A group from the east will prepare the way for the coming of Hazrat Mahdi(as)



(A group from the east will prepare the way for the coming of Hazrat Mahdi(as)
Some people will come from the East and prepare the sultanate of Hazrat Mahdi (as). (Ibn Hajar al-Haythami, Al-Qawl al-Mukhtasar fi `Alamat al-Mahdi al-Muntadhar , p. 21)

A community will come from the East and assist the sultanate of Hazrat Mahdi (as). (Al-Muttaqi al-Hindi, Al-Burhan fi Alamat al-Mahdi Akhir az-Zaman, p. 60)

... They will come down to Jerusalem and prepare the sultanate for Hazrat Mahdi (as). (Ibn Hajar al-Haythami, Al-Qawl al-Mukhtasar fi `Alamat al-Mahdi al-Muntadhar, p. 47)

One of the pieces of wisdom behind people's inability to recognize Hazrat Mahdi (as) is that he is under Allah's protection


(One of the pieces of wisdom behind people's inability to recognize Hazrat Mahdi (as) is that he is under Allah's protection)
BUT ALLAH WILL HIDE HIM (HAZRAT MAHDI (AS) FROM PEOPLE AGAINST THE OPPRESSION, CRUELTY AND WASTE OF PEOPLE’S EARTHLY DESIRES. (Sheikh Muhammad ibn Ibrahim Numani, al-Ghaybah al-Numani, p. 162)

Hazrat Mahdi(A.S.)will resemble Khidr(A.S.)and Dhu'l-qarnayn(A.S.)



(Hazrat Mahdi(A.S.)will resemble Khidr(A.S.)and Dhu'l-qarnayn(A.S.)
Ahmad b. Ishaq says: "I went into the presence of Imam Askari ... who said:

... O, Ahmad b. Ishaq! HE [HAZRAT MAHDI (AS)] IS LIKE KHIDR (AS) AND DHU’L- QARNAYN (AS) IN THIS COMMUNITY... (Sheikh al-Saduq, Kamal al-Din, Vol. 2, p. 384; Abdullah Turan, Hz. Mehdi Aleyhisselam [Hazrat Mahdi (as)], Al-i Taha Press, p. 157)

The information provided in the hadith shows that the stories in the Qur’an about Khidr (as) and Dhu’l-qarnayn (as) are also applicable by analogy to Hazrat Mahdi (as).

It accordingly appears that Hazrat Mahdi (as) will have Khidr’s (as) moral values and manners, will have his knowledge of the consciousness of Allah and will act in the light of that knowledge.

In addition, in the story of Khidr (as) in the Qur’an, in the same way that the Prophet Moses (as) reacted in ignorance of the wisdom behind Khidr’s (as) actions, so in the End Times people will be unable to properly understand and appreciate the Hazrat Mahdi (as), who will act out of knowledge of the consciousness of Allah. People will misunderstand the Hazrat Mahdi (as) and will therefore react very strongly to him. In fact, however, all of Hazrat Mahdi’s (as) actions will be full of secret knowledge and wisdom as a blessing from Allah.

In another hadith of our Prophet (saas) it is also revealed that from start to finish the story of Kahf refers, analogically, to Hazrat Mahdi (as), who will free mankind from the corruption of the antichrist. The hadith above and all those below regarding the story of Kahf regarding the End Times show that Hazrat Mahdi (as) will rule the world like Dhu’l-qarnayn (as), who is described in the story of Kahf:

Whoever of you lives to see the antichrist, LET HIM READ THE BEGINNING OF SURA AL-KAHF IN HIM, the end of this sura is your salvation from the corruption of the antichrist. (Sunan Abu Dawud, 5/121)

(Inspired by Allah, Hazrat Mahdi (as) will know 'the best behavior for earning Allah's approval' and will act accordingly)
I said: “HOW WILL HAZRAT MAHDI (AS) KNOW HOW TO EARN ALLAH’S APPROVAL?” AND HE SAID: “ALLAH WILL INSTALL HIS MERCY IN HIS HEART.” (Sheikh Muhammad ibn Ibrahim Numani, al-Ghaybah al-Numani, p. 191)

OCCULTATION OF IMAM AN IMMENSE DEPRIVATION


(OCCULTATION OF IMAM AN IMMENSE DEPRIVATION)

Allah, the Blessed, the High says in the Holy Quran:
"The day when We will call every people with their Imam"
(Bani Israel: 71)

Allah, the High at various places, has promised guidance to the people. To fulfill His promise. He sent Prophets and Messengers (peace be on them all) one after another, who called people towards His religion, recognition and worship. When the Prophethood was completed with the advent of the last prophet Mohammad (s.a.w.s.). He introduced Imamat in the progeny of Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) so that people may turn to them and save themselves from straying and attain eternal happiness. The greatest and the highest bounty of Allah from amongst His bounties is the presence of Imam (a.s.).

No other bounty can match this bounty. Other bounties have reached their relative position due to this bounty, without which all other endowments are imperfect. As it is mentioned in the Holy Quran,
"This day (on the day of Ghadeer) I have perfected for you your religion and completed My favor on you and chosen for you Islam as a religion."
(Maaedah: 3)
"And as for the favor of your Lord, do announce (it)."
Our guidance and salvation depends upon the fourteen infallibles therefore, it is obligatory upon us that we discuss and talk about this bounty.

We would like to make an important point over here. And that is, a believer should never give preference to any bounty over that of the mastership and love of Ahle Bait (a.s.). To consider the gift of 'Mastership of Ahle Bait (a.s.)' as light or equating it with other endowments like wealth, children, business etc. will lead to our destruction and devastation.
The Islamic nations received the distinction of living with the thirteen infallibles and reap benefits from their holy lives. However, the majority breached their covenant with their Lord and the people who actually remained loyal and faithful, could easily be counted on fingers.

Instead of deriving benefits from their existence, the people oppressed and tortured them no end. Their barbarism and brutality had reached to such pits that had they been told to oppress the family of the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.), they would have not been able to repress than what they actually did. Notwithstanding such-a disgraceful demonstration of ingratitude and inhumanity, the Merciful Allah did not snatch away the bounty of the physical presence of the infallibles (a.s.) from amongst the people, till the commencement of the occultation of Imam Mahdi (a.s.).
It should be borne in mind that if Allah bestows bounty on any one without he deserving it, then this bounty of Allah is His 'Grace'. If He snatches the bounty after sometime, it is not injustice because he had bestowed it without the person deserving it.

On the contrary, it will be sheer justice. It is not obligatory on Allah that He should always deal with 'Grace'. But on occasions, He deals with His grace and on others, with justice. None of His dealings are devoid of wisdom. It is not necessary that we should . know the prudence behind all His actions. Whatever He does is sheer wisdom, whether we comprehend or not. We can comprehend the wisdom behind any of His action only in the light of the Holy Quran and the traditions. The intellect of men cannot comprehend the rationale behind His actions.
However, from the divine practices of Allah is the practice which has been related in Holy Quran and the traditions is:
"Surely Allah does not change the condition of people until they change their own condition..."
"This is because Allah has never changed a favor which He has conferred upon the people until they change their own condition..."
(Anfaal; 53)

Imam Mohammad Baqir (a.s.) in the exposition of the above Quranic verses says:
It is a definite and certain decree of Allah that when He bestows a bounty on His servant. He does not snatch it till the servant commits a sin which becomes the cause of its deprivation. This is the meaning of Allah's word "Surely Allah does not change the condition of people until they change their own condition".
(Tafseer Noor al-Saqalain, vol.2, p. 488)

In brief, the actions of the people are the cause of Allah, the High, confiscating the bounty from them. Ameerul Momineen Ali Ibn Abi Taalib (a.s.) in the opening sentences of his famous supplication, Dua-e-Kumayl,says:
"0 Allah! Forgive those of my sins which convert the bounties (into calamities)."
The Divine practice shows that Allah's Mercy takes precedence over His Wrath. Therefore, Allah seizes the bounty only when people are ungrateful and unappreciative.

Thus, we are not aware of the actual wisdom behind the occultation of Imam-e-Asr (a.t.f.s.) and according to some traditions. Imam Zaman (a.t.f.s.) will himself give the reason of his occultation when he reappears. However, one of the reasons that we are familiar with is that occultation is due to the anger of Allah on account of the ingratitude of the people. The physical presence of Imam (a.s.) among the people was the greatest bounty of Allah upon the people that was snatched from them. While explaining the importance of the physical presence of Imam (a.s.). Imam Reza (a.s.) says:
"Imamat is complete religion, the foundation of Islam, the basis of all goodness, the discipline of the nation, the path to Allah and the light through which people acquire guidance."
Imam Mohammad Baqi'r (a.s.) says:
"Islam is based on five principles -Namaz, Zakat, Fasting, Ha] and the Mastership (ofAhle Bait (a.s.)) and the manner in which importance has been given to Mastership no other thing has been given such importance."
(al-Kaafi, vol.2, p.l8)
While explaining the following Quranic verse. Imam Mohammad Baqir (a.s.) says:
"Then believe in Allah and His Messenger and the light which We have sent down",
"By Allah in the above verse, 'light' refers to the Imams from the progeny of Mohammad (s.a.w.s.) till the day of Judgment and by Allah these are the 'lights' which Allah has sent. And by Allah, they are the 'lights' in the heavens and on the earth... By Allah the 'light' of Imam in the hearts of the believers, is brighter than the shining sun."
(Tafseer Noor al-Saqalain, vol. 5, p. 321)

When people disregarded this great bounty, Allah, the High concealed Imam-e-Zaman (a.s.) from their eyes. No other calamity can be greater than this concealment of Imam (a.s.) from the sights of the people. The simile of the above is like a child who is left alone in darkness to seek out his way, he is not aware of its beginning nor its end. Resultantly, he will fall a prey for the beast or will become needy of somebody.
Imam Muhammad Baqir (a.s.) says:

"When Allah, the Blessed and the High is angry with His creation then He makes us -the Ahle bait (a.s.), distanced and away from
the people."
(al-Kaafi, Chapter of Occultation, Tradition No. 31)

The presence of Imam (a.s.) among the people to solve their questions and problems is a divine grace of immeasurable magnitude. The concealment of Imam (a.s.) from the sights of the people and their helplessness to reach the Imam (a.s.) is the justice of Allah. Grace takes precedence over justice but the disobedience and ungratefulness of the Muslims has replaced the grace of Allah with His justice.
It is an irrefutable reality that the benefits that we would have enjoyed in the physical presence of Imam (a.s.), are not available now. It is a great loss and nothing can make the loss 'good. We only are to be blamed for the loss and nobody else.
One question arises here: The cause of occultation was due to the disobedience and ingratitude of the earlier Muslims. Then why are we suffering for their action and misdeeds? Is it not injustice?

Answer: Firstly, as we have already mentioned that if Allah has kept His Proof among the people, then it is His grace. And if He conceals Him, then it is His justice.
Secondly, we are also responsible for the occultation of Imam-e-Asr (a.s.) by our conflicts, internal fighting, sins, misdemeanours, etc. These actions are the cause of prolonging the occultation of Imam (a.s.). Imam-e-Zaman (a.s.), in one of his 'Tawqee' to Sheikh Mufeed (a.r.) writes: "If the hearts of our Shias (may Allah give them the taufeeq of His obedience) were united in their fulfillment of the covenant (of Shiasm), then certainly our meeting with them would have not been delayed".
The words of Imam (a.s.) show that our disunity not only makes him sorrowful but is also a cause of prolongation of his occupation and loneliness. In other words, our actions and sins are the cause of sorrow and grief for our Imam (a.s.). If we sincerely love our Imam (a.s.) then let all of us take this oath that we will not commit sins and disobey Allah the Almighty, as these sins deprive us of our Imam and consequently, we lose the greatest bounty of Allah, the High. On the flip side, if we keep our covenant and refrain from sins, we can undo the misdeeds of the earlier Muslims and can obtain the privilege of an earlier meeting with our Imam (a.s.).

PROTECTION FOR THE EARNED VIRTUES, MERITS AND GOOD DEEDS


(PROTECTION FOR THE EARNED VIRTUES, MERITS AND GOOD DEEDS)
Allah is the creator (generator), administrator (operator) and destructor of this entire
universe. After destruction of this entire creation of this universe, he will create a day of
judgment called as a qayamat day. On the day of judgement, every body will be
questionable in front of him for their affairs during the worldly life. The full account of
their deeds, merits, virtues and sins will be given. Those whose merits, virtues and good
deeds are more than their sins, they will be awarded paradise (jannah) and those with
dominating sins will be thrown in the hell fire- a place of torments.
So, it is absolutely necessary that we must save our good deeds and merits. The earned
merits and good deeds may be wiped out if we cannot protect them. When we earn
money or property, we make arrangements to save them or protect them. In the same way
we have to protect our earned good deeds and good virtues or merits.
How are the good deeds, merits and virtues destroyed?
(1) In holy quran, there is a mentioning - In holy book quran, in ayat two of surah
Hujarat, “ ya ayyohallajina aamanu la
tarfau aswaatakum……. Wa antum laa tashourun” states that “o believers, do
not keep your voice louder than the voice of nabi(Pbuh) while talking to him as
usually you talk loudly to each other while you talk to each other, lest your
good deeds should be destroyed and you even cannot know”
This ayat is alarming us that even to speak louder in front of nabi(pbuh) is
treated as insult to him and becomes a reason to destroy our good deeds. Now
think of those who speak displeasing words about our prophet by one or other
way. What will happen to those people ? Their good deeds are vanished
without their knowledge. They will know this thing at the time of day of
judgement. Normally, if someone drinks wine, a sin will be written in his or her
account as wine is prohibited in Islam but this sin will not erase his or her good
deed like salaat(namaaz), fastings etc. This clearly implies that to insult or to
displease nabi or any friend of Allah becomes so great sin that cause all
previous merits(sawaab) of good deeds destroyed.
(2) There is a hadis “Those who do not respect the elders and do not show
mercy towards the young ones are not among us”
This clearly implies us that the holy Prophet Mohammed (Pbuh) informed us to
respect the elders and show mercy on the little ones so that we can get place
near the Prophet. The young people must respect the elders and the elders
must show mercy towards the youngsters.
So, we must behave properly in the society so that our good deeds can be protected till
the day of judgement.
In fact, it is a qualification given by the Allah to the elders that they are born earlier than
the younger ones and hence must be respected. Hence normally, it was a tradition that an
oldest son is set on the throne of the king. It is usually a tradition that an oldest son
(senior most) is given khilaphat of a saint. Under the unavoidable circumstances only,
this tradition is not followed.
When a saint decides to confer his khilaphat (deputy) to suitable person from his
followers, he keeps in mind the important hadis of our beloved Prophet mentioned above
“Those who do not respect the elders and do not show mercy towards the young
ones are not among us”
Hence under the normal situation, the khilaphat is bestowed upon the eldest or the most
senior person. If the eldest person has the disability like madness or weakness greater
than average to perform duties, the regular tradition is not adopted. Otherwise, the
tradition is adopted under normal circumstances. Our Prophet has taken care to stop
dictatorship of the elders upon the younger, and hence the mercy has to be shown upon
the younger.
When the senior or eldest son is deprived of the khilaphat (throne) and the younger is set
on the throne, the abnormal situation of respecting the younger by the elder sons will
arise which is contradicting the hadis of the holy Prophet of Islam. Any work or system
done against our holy Prophet’s hadis cannot obtain natural barakah (blessings). Natural
barakah (blessings) are obtained if a system or work is done in accordance with the hadis.
In present day Saudi Arabian System, the successor of the king is made to whom who is
eldest in the king and his brothers’ family. Hence, if the king demise and his brother is
living and the eldest son is also living, whoever is older in age is made a successor of the
king. In doing so, knowingly or unknowingly, the hadis in (2) above is followed and
hence natural blessings in governing the country is obtained. Our holy Prophet’s hadis is
general. We know that the dignity (darjaat) level based on piety (taqwa) is totally spiritual
thing and general public cannot know whose taqwa is great and whose taqwa is inferior.
But yet our Prophet (pbuh) mentioned this hadis implies that this hadis is based on the
age as a qualification. The one whose age is more must be respected by those whose age
is less. This is a general hadis. There is a group of people whose ages are 55, 50, 49.5, 42,
30, 25. Then Person who has 55 years age must be respected by all other 5 persons.
Person with 50 years as age must be respected by people who has age below to him, i.e.
by 4 people. And person who has 25 year of age has to respect all persons. The natural
blessings is reduced due to the fact that this tradition is slowly and slowly vanishes away
from the society. This is to be practiced generally in every house of Muslim ummah. The
houses in which this general hadis is not obeyed, the (blessings) barakah from such
houses go away.
It must be noted that Saudi Arabian System must not be considered as an Ideal. The Ideal
System in Islam is democracy. Islam introduced democracy to entire world by election of
the leaders known as khalipha. But the khilaphat system lasted for first four pious
khaliphas only. Then dictatorship was created by Yazid bin Muawiah. Later, Abbasi and
Osmani Khilaphat time arrived in Islam. That khilaphat was like kingship and not like
democratic. So, something is better than nothing. When such system is running, then it
should be at least consider this hadis in selecting a leader. Even in democracy, the leader
of democratic party is senior most person. We should consider this hadis in deciding party
leader. Once party leader is selected, the election is the ultimate decision factor. In
deciding first four pious khalipha, this hadis was implemented in electing them. Hazarat
Abu Bakar(RA) was senior than Omar(RA) and this seniority was also considered.
Hazarat Abu Bakar (RA) had delivered a speech before he was elected. He might have
said such things. In our houses, some rich people have their big business, industries etc.
To run such business, the leader is required. In deciding leader, this hadis can be
implemented.

HAZRAT MAHDI (AS)HAS THE SEAL OF "PROPHETHOOD" ON HIS SHOULDER



(HAZRAT MAHDI (AS)HAS THE SEAL OF "PROPHETHOOD" ON HIS SHOULDER)
We understand from the hadiths that Hazrat Mahdi (as) will have a clear
sign on his back, between his shoulders, as in the Prophet’s (saas). This sign is
known as the “the Seal of Prophethood.”
Hazrat Mahdi (as) will have the sign of prophethood on
his shoulder as the Prophet (saas) did. (Ibn Hajar al-Haythami,
Al-Qawl al-Mukhtasar fi `Alamat al-Mahdi al-Muntadhar, p. 41)
The sign of the Prophet (saas) is on his shoulder. (Al-
Barzanji, Al-Isha'ah li-ashrat al-sa'ah, p. 165; Al-Muttaqi al-Hindi, Al-
Burhan fi Alamat al-Mahdi Akhir az-Zaman, p. 23)
The mark of the Prophet (saas) is on his shoulder. (Al-
Barzanji, Al-Isha'ah li-ashrat al-sa'ah, p. 163)
Our Prophet (saas) has revealed that there will be A SIGN BELONGING
TO OUR PROPHET (SAAS) on Hazrat Mahdi’s body. Other hadiths state that
THIS SIGN IS THE PROPHET’S SEAL OF PROPHETHOOD and this is compared
to the PROPHET’S MARK. This is yet another astonishing detail about
Hazrat Mahdi (as).
As we know, THE SEAL IS DARK IN COLOR and COVERS THE SURFACE.
In addition, the location of this mark on Hazrat Mahdi’s (as) back is pinned
down by the provision of specific coordinates. Accounts state that every prophet
has the seal of prophethood on his right hand. The seal of our Prophet (saas)
is described as being “at the level of his heart on the skin of his left shoulder
blade.” The reference in the hadiths to Hazrat Mahdi (as) having the seal of
prophethood of our Prophet (saas) on his shoulder shows that he will also have
“A DARK MARK AT THE LEVEL OF HIS HEART ON HIS BACK, ON HIS
LEFT SHOULDER BLADE.”

HE WILL HAVE A MOLE SHAPED LIKE A LEAF ON HIS BACK


(HE WILL HAVE A MOLE SHAPED LIKE A LEAF ON HIS BACK)
Abu Bashir says: Imam Muhammad Baqir (as) or Jaffar
Sadik (as) said: “... THERE IS A LEAF BELOW AND TO
THE LEFT OF HIS [Hazrat Mahdi’s (as)] LEFT SHOULDER
BLADE, JUST LIKE THE LEAF OF THE MYRTLE.”
(Sheikh Muhammad ibn Ibrahim Numani, al-Ghaybah al-Numani, p.
253)

The hadith provides detailed information about the location of this mole on
the back of Hazrat Mahdi (as): that it is BETWEEN HIS SHOULDERS; BELOW
AND TO THE LEFT OF HIS LEFT SHOULDER. It is also referred to as a LEAFSHAPED
one, so it appears the reference is to one that will be the color of skin,
with distinct edges and raised above the level of the skin, thus resembling a leaf
in shape and of the color of a faded leaf.

HAZRAT MAHDI (AS) WILL BE SINGLE



(HAZRAT MAHDI (AS) WILL BE SINGLE)
Al-Mas'udi narrates: "When Ali ibn Hazm, Ibn Siraj and Ibn
Abi Said came into the presence of Imam Reza (as) on one
occasion Ali ibn Hazm asked the Imam: ‘O son of the Messenger
of Allah, we have related from you (the imams of the
Ahl al-Bayt) that; EVERY IMAM WILL SEE HIS CHILD
BEFORE HE DIES. (Is this true?)’ The Imam (as) replied:
‘Have you added this to the account? APART FROM THE
QAIM [HAZRAT MAHDI (AS)]?’ (Al-Mas’udi, Ithbat al-
Wasiyyah, p. 201)

Hazrat Mahdi (as) has a powerful urge to defend Islam


(Hazrat Mahdi (as) has a powerful urge to defend Islam)
In the hadiths it is revealed that Hazrat Mahdi’s (as) protective instincts are very powerful. He will respond to every word spoken and neutralize every action taken against Islam.

Even a single word spoken against Islam will offend him. (Ibn Hajar al-Haythami, Al-Qawl al-Mukhtasar fi `Alamat al-Mahdi al-Muntadhar, p. 30)

Hazrat Mahdi(as)will never be defeated in any way; Nobody will be able to harm Hazrat Mahdi(as)


(Hazrat Mahdi(as)will never be defeated in any way; Nobody will be able to harm Hazrat Mahdi(as)
By Allah’s leave, Hazrat Mahdi (as) will cause Islamic moral values to rule the world, wage a great and glorious intellectual struggle and achieve a hitherto unseen victory. On the intellectual plane, he will eliminate ideologies such as Darwinism and materialism that turn people away from religious moral values and lead to denial, and will lead people to live by religious moral values in great numbers. During this great intellectual struggle, the system of the antichrist will set innumerable snares for Hazrat Mahdi (as), will imprison him unjustly, seek to wear him down with false accusations and even attempt to take his life. But Hazrat Mahdi (as) is under Allah’s protection, and by His leave, no trap will do him any harm. Even situations that may seem on the surface to represent troubles and difficulties will be instrumental in Hazrat Mahdi (as) growing even stronger and increasing his global influence. HAZRAT MAHDI (AS) WILL NEVER BE DEFEATED BUT WILL ALWAYS, BY ALLAH’S LEAVE, EMERGE VICTORIOUS. One verse that alludes to his never suffering any defeat reads:

IF ALLAH HELPS YOU, NO ONE CAN VANQUISH YOU. If He forsakes you, who can help you after that? So the muminun should put their trust in Allah. (Surat Al ‘Imran, 160)

HAZRAT MAHDI (AS) WILL LOVE AND UNDERSTAND ANIMALS



(HAZRAT MAHDI (AS) WILL LOVE AND UNDERSTAND ANIMALS)
HAZRAT MAHDI (AS) IS A PERSON WHO IS APPROVED,
SPEAKS THE LANGUAGE OF BIRDS AND
OTHER ANIMALS. (Al-Barzanji, Al-Isha'ah li-ashrat al-sa'ah, p.188)
Hazrat Mahdi (as) will have a powerful love and affection for animals; he
will understand them and their needs. In his time, like everything on earth, all
the animals on the earth and in the sky will feel a great love for Hazrat Mahdi
(as); they will all approve of him:
Hear the good news of Hazrat Mahdi (as)… THE PEOPLE
OF THE EAFRTH AND SKY APPROVE OF HIM... (Al-
Muttaqi al-Hindi, Al-Burhan fi Alamat al-Mahdi Akhir az-Zaman, p.
13)
UNDER HIS [Hazrat Mahdi’s (as)] SPIRITUAL LEADERSHIP
THE PEOPLE OF THE EARTH AND SKY AND
EVEN THE BIRDS IN THE AIR WILL APPROVE OF
HIM. (Ibn Hajar al-Haythami, Al-Qawl al-Mukhtasar fi `Alamat al-
Mahdi al-Muntadhar, p. 26)
THE PEOPLE OF EARTH AND SKY, ALL WILD ANIMALS,
BIRDS, AND EVEN THE FISH IN THE SEA

The Prophet Jesus (as) and Hazrat Mahdi (as) Will Come This Century


(The Prophet Jesus (as) and Hazrat Mahdi (as) Will Come This Century)
The Prophet (saas) said:
"People will gather around Hazrat Mahdi (as) in the year 1400."
(Risalat al-Khuruj al-Mahdi, p. 108)
“The subject of the Mahdi” is one that has always occupied an important place in the Islamic world, ever since the Age of Bliss. Hoping that Hazrat Mahdi (as) will be instrumental in making the afflictions Muslims have been going through, the intellectual systems based on denial, unfair and unjust practices, conflicts and wars pervading the world to come to an end, believers have always awaited the coming of this blessed individual in their own times and sincerely prayed to Allah for it to come about.

The hadiths of our Prophet (saas) speak of Muslims eagerly awaiting the coming of the Prophet Jesus (as) and Hazrat Mahdi (as) ever since the time of the Ashab al-Kiram (Companions of the Prophet [saas]) and of their “begging Allah to be among the living at that time.” We are told that the old “will beg Allah to be young” in order to live to see the age of the Prophet Jesus (as) and Hazrat Mahdi (as). In the hadiths, our Prophet (saas) also tells the believers who will live in that time “to find and follow Hazrat Mahdi (as), even by crawling over ice,” and advises those who live to see this happy age to strive to be worthy of this blessing from Allah:

Ibn Abi Shayba and Nuaim Ibn Hammad in Kitab Al-Fitan, and Ibn Majah and Abu Na’im quoted from Ibnu Mas’ud. He said that:

"... He [Hazrat Mahdi (as)] owns the earth and fills the earth with justice which was previously filled with oppression and violence. WHOEVER OF YOU LIVES TO SEE HIM, LET HIM CRAWL OVER SNOW TO HIM AND JOIN HIM. Because he is Hazrat Mahdi (as).” (Al-Muttaqi al-Hindi, Al-Burhan fi Alamat al-Mahdi Akhir az-Zaman, p. 14)

"In his [Hazrat Mahdi’s (as)] time, ADULTS WILL SAY "WISH I WAS YOUNGER," AND YOUNGER ONES WILL SAY "WISH I WAS GROWN UP." (Ibn Hajar al-Haythami, Al-Qawl al-Mukhtasar fi `Alamat al-Mahdi al-Muntadhar, p. 48; Al-Muttaqi al-Hindi, Al-Burhan fi Alamat al-Mahdi Akhir az-Zaman, p. 17)

"… THE LIVING (FOR OTHERS TO SEE THE GRACES THEY ENJOY) WILL WISH THE DEAD WERE ALIVE." (Al-Sharani, Mukhtasar Tazkirah al-Qurtubi, p. 437)

Nuaim Ibn Hammad quoted from Ibn Abbas: "Hazrat Mahdi (as) is a young man from the Ahl al-Bayt. OUR OLD MEMBERS WILL NOT LIVE TO SEE HIM, WHILE OUR YOUNG PEOPLE HOPE FOR HIM." (Al-Muttaqi al-Hindi, Al-Burhan fi Alamat al-Mahdi Akhir az-Zaman, p. 23)

Nuaim Ibn Hammad reported from Tawus: "I WISH I WOULD NOT DIE UNTIL HAZRAT MAHDI (AS) WERE TO APPEAR. For then, in his period the good become even better, and even the wicked ones are treated well.” (Al-Muttaqi al-Hindi, Al-Burhan fi Alamat al-Mahdi Akhir az-Zaman, p. 17)

"His [Hazrat Mahdi’s (as)] time will be one of such justice that THE DEAD IN THE GRAVES WILL ENVY THE LIVING..." (Ibn Hajar al-Haythami, Al-Qawl al-Mukhtasar fi `Alamat al-Mahdi al-Muntadhar, p. 22)

This blissful time, for which people have been deeply longing for hundreds of years will, according to the indications in the hadiths, last “for more than half a century.” And little time now remains until these historic glad tidings, of such great importance to the Islamic world, finally come about. By Allah's leave, the timing given by the Prophet (saas) in the hadiths for the coming of Hazrat Mahdi (as) is now imminent. The century we are living in, or “Hijri 1400s”, is “the century of the Mahdi,” by Allah’s leave. “The coming of the Prophet Jesus (as) and Hazrat Mahdi (as),” that people have been keenly awaiting and praying for over the centuries will, by His leave, take place in this century. Sincere Muslims living in this century and who eagerly, hopefully and enthusiastically await the coming of these historic individuals will, insha’Allah, be able to enjoy the honor of being among the Prophet Jesus’ (as) and Hazrat Mahdi’s (as) helpers, friends and close followers. They will be able to support the Prophet Jesus (as) and Hazrat Mahdi (as) in their intellectual struggle against irreligious movements, in spreading the moral values of Islam across the world, in uniting the Islamic world and in causing the Christian world to follow the Qur’an and the true faith. Being among the supporters of these holy individuals, they will have the honor of being among those instrumental in the Muslim world attaining the peace, happiness, plenty and abundance for which it has longed for the last 14 centuries.

The hadiths of our Prophet (saas), books written by great Sunni scholars, and all the statements by worthy scholars who were mujaddids (revivers) and mujtahids (scholars who derive legal rulings) of their own times, all point to the present century. Almost all the events known as “The Portents of the End Times” have come about one after the other “like the beads on a necklace.” The developments taking place in the world on an almost daily basis show that we are living in “The End Times” and that “the Prophet Jesus (as) and Hazrat Mahdi (as) will appear in this age, and the age that they will be instrumental in its being a most holy one is approaching.”

Everyone, whether or not they take a great interest in this reality, is by now well aware of it; the subject of Hazrat Mahdi (as) is being discussed on domestic and foreign television and radio stations, on chat programs, in newspapers and magazines, at conferences and on web sites. There is no doubt that this is an important sign revealed in the hadiths and foretelling the coming of Hazrat Mahdi (as):

"HAZRAT MAHDI (AS) WILL APPEAR, EVERYONE WILL SPEAK ONLY OF HIM, DRINK OF HIS LOVE AND SPEAK OF NOTHING ELSE." (Al-Muttaqi al-Hindi, Al-Burhan fi Alamat al-Mahdi Akhir az-Zaman, p. 33)

One of the aims in the preparation of this book is to enable both Muslims excitedly awaiting the Prophet Jesus (as) and Hazrat Mahdi (as) and everyone interested in the subject to obtain the most accurate information and access the most trustworthy sources; it is for them to be able to learn important facts regarding these holy individuals from valuable hadiths that have been scrupulously transmitted from the Prophet (saas) and down the centuries to the present day. In this way, Muslims, the Islamic world and everyone on Earth will be able to follow these significant events of such great importance for human happiness and to ready themselves for these historic events both better and faster.

People have not had the honor of seeing a “Prophet” for the last 14 centuries. They have been unable to meet and see such a holy person and to witness his deep faith, fear of Allah and superior moral virtues. By Allah's leave, this time is now the age when people will be honored by a “Prophet” after 1400 years. Allah will send the Prophet Jesus (as) back to Earth to support Hazrat Mahdi (as) in his struggle against denial. On this second coming, the Prophet Jesus (as) will adhere to the Qur’an and will be instrumental in the whole Christian world also obeying the Qur’an. The Prophet Jesus (as) will follow Hazrat Mahdi (as) and they will establish the global dominion of Islamic moral values under Hazrat Mahdi’s (as) spiritual leadership. This is a great blessing from Allah for people living in the current century.

The “Mahdi of the End Times” awaited for hundreds of years will only come once, and people in this century will have the honor of seeing this Great Person. Our Prophet (saas) reveals in the hadiths that “Hazrat Mahdi (as) will be the most virtuous person of his age.” We are told that his good manners and conduct will resemble those of our Prophet (saas). It is a great blessing from Allah for a believer to live in the same age as such a virtuous and holy figure. A Muslim must strive to find someone described as “the most virtuous person in the world” of his own day.

Allah's sending two such superior figures chosen by and beloved of Him at the same time is a great blessing. The information in this book will, by Allah’s leave, be instrumental in Muslims having a better understanding of this great mercy and these glad tidings from Allah, and getting ready in a much better way for the dominion of the moral values of Islam after so many centuries.
