Time of Tyrants to Time of the Mahdi (Part 2)

1. In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Time of TyrantstoTime of the Mahdi (Part 2) An Analytical Approach of Possibilities for Discussion

2. Coming of the Dajjal • Mu'azibnJabal narrated that the Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) said to him: "Omran (re-building) of Bayt Al-Maqdis (Jerusalem) will be (lead to) Halak (the pillaging and devastation) of Yathrib (Madina in Saudi Arabia). The pillaging of Yathrib will be (lead to) the outbreak of the Big Battle (with the Romans). The outbreak of the Big Battle will be (lead to) the conquest of Constantinople. The conquest of Constantinople will be (lead to) the coming of Dajjal (Anti-Christ). Then, ... said: This is as true as you (Mu'azibnJabal) are here or you are sitting."  (Abu Dawud)  

3. Possible Interpretation • The hadith might have mentioned about the ongoing Omran (re-building) of Bayt Al-Maqdis (Jerusalem). As it is the capital of today’s world politics and world economy. • The hadith might have mentioned about the ongoing Halak (the pillaging and devastation) of Yathrib (Madina in Saudi Arabia). As it has nothing to do with the world’s politics and world’s economy of today. • So the next might be the Big Battle (Malhama) inshaAllah.

4. 10 Signs • Before the Mahdi’s Emergence & • Might occur very soon

5. Death of A Ruler & Baida Army • HadhratUmmeSalmah (R.A.) narrates that Rasulullah (SallallahuAlayhiWasallam) said, " After the death of a Ruler there will be some dispute between the people. At that time a citizen of Madina will flee (from Madinah) and go to Makkah. While in Makkah, certain people will approach him between HajrulAswad and MaqaameIbraheem, and forcefully pledge their allegiance to him. Thereafter a huge army will proceed from Syria to attack him but when they will be at Baida, which is between Makkah and Madina, they will be swallowed into the ground. On seeing this, the Abdaals of Shaam as well as large numbers of people from Iraq will come to him and pledge their allegiance to him. Then a person from the Quraish, whose uncle will be from the Bani Kalb tribe will send an army to attack him, only to be overpowered, by the will of Allah. This (defeated) army will be that of the Bani Kalb. Unfortunate indeed is he who does not receive a share from the booty of the Kalb. This person (The Mahdi) will distribute the spoils of war after the battle. He will lead the people according to the Sunnat and during his reign Islam will spread throughout the world. He will remain till seven years (since his emergence). He will pass away and the Muslims will perform his Janazahsalaat." (Abu Dawood)

6. Three Sons of Different Caliph • "Before your treasure(near kaaba), three will kill each other -- all of them are sons of a different caliph but none will be the recipient. Then the Black Banners will appear from the East and they will kill you in a way that has never before been done by a nation." Thawban, a companion said: 'Then he said something that I do not remember by heart' then continued to say that the Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, said: "If you see him give him your allegiance, even if you have to crawl over ice, because surely he is the Caliph of Allah, Al Mahdi. If you see the Black Banners coming from Khurasan go to them immediately, even if you must crawl over ice, because indeed amongst them is the Caliph, Al Mahdi." (IbnMajah, hadith no. 4084)

7. Possible Incident • There is a possibility that three sons of different ruler might come to fight before the treasure when kingship needs to be forwarded from the generation of the sons of King Abdul Aziz Bin Saud to the generation of the grandsons of King Abdul Aziz Bin Saud. Because successors of kingship of Saudi Arabia are the younger sons of King Abdul Aziz Bin Saud but if this generation comes to an end then there is a possibility of dispute among the grandsons of King Abdul Aziz Bin Saud about the future successors. • As hadith mentions that “After the death of a Ruler there will be some dispute between the people” so the dispute between the people might start for the dispute among the grandsons of King Abdul Aziz Bin Saud. And the death of a Ruler might be the last possible successor among the sons of King Abdul Aziz Bin Saud.

8. Ramadan Sound to Jamrah Blood • Prophet Muhammad(Peace be upon him) said, “During Ramadan there will be a sound, in Shawwal there will be a hum, in DhiKidah tribes will fight. In that year pilgrims will be robbed, and there will be a fierce battle in Minan with myriad of murders, blood will flow there until their blood flows over Al Jamrah and their companion escapes and stands between Al Rukn and Al Makam where he is pledged allegiance whilst he dislikes it. And it is said to him: 'If you refuse we will slit your throat, and the inhabitants of Heaven and Earth will be pleased with him.” • Note: [Al Jamrah: a stone pillar representing satan that is stoned during the pilgrimage.]

9. Ramadan Sound to Muharram Call • Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) said, “During Ramadan there will be a sound, in Shawwal there will be a hum, in DhiKidah tribes will fight, in DhiHijjah pilgrims will be robbed, and in Al Muharram a herald will call from Heaven. 'Attention! Surely, the choice from His creation is so and so (referring to Al Mahdi) so hear him and obey!”

10. Sign out of Sun • Hazrat Mahdi (as) will not emerge unless the Sun rises as a sign. (Ibn Hajar al-Haythami, Al-Muttaqi al-Hindi, Al-Burhan fi Alamat al-Mahdi, p. 33) • “WHEN YOU SEE A GREAT FIRE FROM THE EAST IN THE SKY ILLUMINATE THE NIGHT, THAT MOMENT IS THE TIME OF THE COMING OF HAZRAT MAHDI (AS).” • (Mari’ bin Yusuf KaramiHanbali, FawaidFawaid al-Fikrfil Mahdi al-Montazar) • Possible Interpretation: If these statements are true then this might be the solar storm forecasted by NASA. Because the solar storm’s effects on earth, which are observable by human being, are similar to the description. Solar storm is predicted to take place before 2019. For further information on the solar storm please visit http://science.nasa.gov

11. Star with a Luminous Tail • A star with a luminous tail will rise from the East before the Mahdi emerges. (Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-RasulBarzanji, Al-Isha‘ahli-ashrat al-sa‘ah, p. 200) • The rise of that star will occur after the eclipse of the Sun and the Moon. (Al-Muttaqi al-Hindi, Al-BurhanfiAlamat al-MahdiAkhir al-zaman, p. 32) • Possible Interpretation: If these statements are true then this might be the hypothetical Planet X or Nibiru. Because it has a luminous tail. For further information on any possible planet approaching the earth in 2019, please visit http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/2147879.stm

12. Sufyani Establishment • Prophet Muhammad(Peace be upon him) said, “Al Mahdi will not come until As-Sufyani is established.” • Prophet Muhammad(Peace be upon him) said, "A man will emerge from the depths of Damascus. He will be called Sufyani. Most of those who follow him will be from the tribe of Kalb. He will kill by ripping the stomachs of women and even kill the children. A man from my family will appear in the Haram, the news of his advent will reach the Sufyani and he will send to him one of his armies. He (referring to The Mahdi) will defeat them. They will then travel with whoever remains until they come to a desert and they will be swallowed. None will be saved except the one who had informed the others about them." (Mustadrak). 

13. Possible Interpretation • Sufyani will emerge from Syria. Syria might be under the dominance of Kuffar at that era because the dominance of kuffar might be until Khaibar during that era. And the greater map of Israel includes both Syria and Khaibar. So Sufyani might be established through the establishment of greater Israel. So Sufyani might emerge after the establishment of greater Israel. • Current situation in Syria provides us a very high possibility of such kind of Sufyani establishment.

14. Interruption of Time • A man called Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) will come at a time when time is interrupted... (Al-Muttaqi al-Hindi, Al-Burhan fi 'Alamat al-Mahdi Akhir az-Zaman, p. 14.) • Possible Interpretation: If this statement is true then the time period of day and night might vary for the coming of Planet X or Nibiru. Because it is a star and if a star shows up at night from some parts of the world then the time period of day might increase in those areas. In that same way or in a different way, the variation of time period of day and night might be the interruption of time.

15. Duration of Signs of the Mahdi • I asked Abu Abdullah Husain ibn Ali: “Are there portents of this?” – in reference to the Mahdi’s appearance. He said: “Yes.” I asked: “What are they?” He said: “The destruction of the [tribe of the] BaniAbbas, the emergence of the Sufyani (Abu Sufyan), and sinking in Bayda.” I said: “I am afraid this will all take a long time,” to which he replied: “These things will happen one after the other, like the dots on a tasbih (prayer beads).” (Al-Muttaqi al-Hindi, Al-BurhanfiAlamat al-MahdiAkhiraz-Zaman, p. 34) Possible Interpretation: If this statement is true then if one sign emerges then other signs might emerge one by one within very short time.

16. Additional Information

17. Time of the Mahdi(as) • People will gather around HazratMahdi (as) in the year 1400. (Risalat al-Khuruj al-Mahdi, p. 108) • Possible Interpretation: If this statement is true then this might be the 1400th year after the end of Khilafah Rashida. Death of Ali Ibn Abi Talib is at 20th Ramadan 40 A.H., which was the end of Khilafah Rashida. 1400 years from the end of Khilafah Rashida is1440 A.H. 20th Ramadan, which is 25th May 2019 A.D.

18. The Mahdi Emerge • "Count two or three decades after 1400 Hijri. At that time, the Mahdi will emerge..."                                    • (Qalda bin Zayd bin Baraka, AsmaMasalik Li Ayyam Al-Mahdi: Malik Li Kul Al-Dunya Bi Amr Allah El-Malik, p. 216 )

19. Possible Interpretation • According to this statement, the Mahdi will inshaAllah appear after two or three decades of 1400 Hijri. • According to this statement, inshaAllahthe appearance might be before four decades of 1400 Hijri. Because mentioning two or three decades would not be required if the statement would consider the appearance to be at any time after two or three decades of 1400 Hijri. So it might be before 1441 Hijri or 31st August 2019 A.D. Allah knows the Best.

20. Some Declarations • Future events are known only to Allah and those whom he choses. • I do not claim that Allah (s.w.t.) is letting me directly know the predictions that I make on these presentations. • There is a difference between “knowing the Future” and “making predictions regarding the Future”. I do not know what is going to happen in the future. I perform analysis of Hadith and based on analysis, I come to conclusions and make predictions regarding events in the end times.

21. Some Declarations • I am not knowledgeable about astrology and I do not use it. • These presentations are not intended to represent the opinions of all Muslims. • I do not know when the Last Day of the World, Day of Resurrection, or Day of Judgment will occur.
