Hazrat Imam-e-Mehdi (r.a)

 Hazrat Imam-e-Mehdi (r.a)

 "I have left you upon clear white ground, its night is like its day, no one deviates from differences (controversy). So stick to what you know from my Sunnah and the Sunnah of the rightly acting (Rashideen) rightly guided (Mahdiyeen) Khulafa (i.e. Abu Bakr, Umar, Usman, Ali), cling to that with your molar teeth and stick to obedience even if it is an Abyssinian slave, since the believer is like the submissive camel, wherever he is led he follows". [Ahmad (4/126), Ibn-e-Majah (no. 43), Al-Hakim (1/96) and others - Hasan]

"An army will come from the East towards Arabia. The East here refers to Khurasan, (Afghanistan). They will pave the way for the establishment of Imam Mahdi's kingdom. This army will carry black banners. Nothing shall stop their onward march, and eventually they will plant their flag on the soils of Jerusalem."

Among the major signs of the Day of Judgment is the advent of Imam Mehdi. The Messenger of Allah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) predicted the coming of Imam Mehdi towards the end of this worldly existence, i.e. just before The Day of Judgment.

Hazrat Abu Hurayrah (radiyallahu anhu) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said:

"If only one day is left for the end of the world, Allah will lengthen that day until a man from my family, whose name will be the same as mine, rules the world.” (Tirmizi Shareef)

This indicates the emphasis, which The Holy Messenger of Allah Sallallahu alayhi wasallam laid on the coming of Imam Mehdi.


This booklet contains all the details about the life and advent of Imam Mehdi, and all these facts are derived from authentic sayings on this topic.

There is much speculation nowadays on whether Imam Mehdi has already been born and if so, what would be his present age, and when the impending appearance. Some Ulama have claimed that he is already born.

However, Muslims should realize that mere speculation does not represent concrete evidence upon which any firm and clear-cut ruling could be based. Hence, the best course of action is to believe that Imam Mehdi will appear' before the Day of Judgment, but exactly when, only Allah knows. The date and time of his arrival we leave to The Knowledge of Allah. However, the Messenger of Allah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) did give certain signs, which will herald the arrival of this great Imam. The sayings on this issue leave no room for rejecting or even doubting the coming of Imam Mehdi. Neither do the facts leave us in the dark as to recognizing this great Imam when he eventually does arrive.

The term "MEHDI" is a title meaning "Guided one". The Mehdi is a normal man who is going to follow the true Islam. His name will be Muhammad and his father name will be Abdullah. He is a descendant from Ali and Fatima (daughter of the prophet Muhammad) so he will be descendant from al-Hasan or al-Hussain or both. The Mehdi will be very just and his capital will be Damascus. The Mehdi is NOT a prophet but he is the final Rightly Guided Khalifah. The Mehdi will lead Muslims to a great victory against the Sufyaani and the Romans. This great war or Armageddon. It will end up with a great victory to Muslims against Romans after six years. Muslims will take over their capital Rome (this can be any city). In the seventh year, the Dajjal (antichrist) will appear and a greater war will start between his followers and the believers for 40 days (longer that usual days) and will end when 'Eessa ("Jesus") will come, slay the Dajjal along with his followers. All remaining people will convert into Islam. Peace will pervade the whole world.
