Being desperate for The Mahdi to arrive, is like being desperate for The Doomsday to arrive.....as the appearance of The Mahdi is among the signs of THE HOUR.
 
50 Signs of the Day of Judgment From the Words of Allah and His Messenger (sallallahu `alaihi wa sallam)



Dr. Suhaib Hasan

From a lecture at Cambridge University
Islamic Society, Shawwal 1420 / January 2000.



----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


The Signs are listed in roughly chronological order, although the order is not necessarily precise, especially for those in the future.

This is a brief summary of the signs; there are many books, articles, cassettes etc. which discuss these in greater detail. May Allah enable us to recognise and heed the Signs, and strengthen us in the times of tribulation.

"Are they waiting for anything except the Hour, to come to them suddenly? But its Signs have already come!" (Al-Qur’an, Surah Muhammad)

Past

1. Splitting of the Moon.

2. Death of the Prophet Muhammad, may Allah bless him and grant him peace.

3. A form of death which will kill thousands of Muslims. (Understood to refer to the plague of Amwas during the
caliphate of ‘Umar ibn al-Khattab.)

5. The Muslim conquest of Jerusalem.

6. The Muslim conquest of Constantinople.

23. People will gather for prayer, but will be unable to find an imam to lead them.

Future

24. The number of men will decrease, whilst the number of women will increase, until for every man there are 50 women.

25. The Euphrates will reveal a treasure of gold, and many will die fighting over it, each one hoping to be the one who gains
the treasure.

26. The Romans (Europeans) will come to a place called A’maq or Wabiq, and an army of the best people will go forth from Madinah to face them.

27. The Muslim conquest of Rome.

28. The Mahdi (guided one) will appear, and be the Imam of the Muslims.

29. Jesus Christ will descend in Damascus, and pray behind the Mahdi.

30. Jesus will break the cross and kill the swine, i.e. destroy the false christianity.

31. The Antichrist (al-masih al-dajjal, the false christ) will appear, with all his tools of deception, and be an immense trial. He will be followed by 70,000 Jews from Isfahan (present-day Iran).

32. The appearance of Ya’juj and Ma’juj (Gog and Magog), and the associated tribulations.

33. The emergence of the Beast from the Earth, carrying the Staff of Moses and the Seal of Solomon, who will speak to the people, telling them they did not believe with certainty in the Divine Signs.

34. A major war between the Muslims (including Jews and Christians who truly believe in Jesus after his return) led by the Imam Mahdi, and the Jews plus other non-Muslims led by the Antichrist.

35. Jesus will kill the Antichrist at the gate of Ludd (Lod in present-day Israel, site of an airport and a major Israeli military base).

36. A time of great peace and serenity during and after the remaining lifetime of Jesus.

37. Wealth will come so abundant that it will become difficult to find someone to accept charity.

49. The blowing in the Trumpet by the Angel Israfil, upon which everyone will faint except as Allah wills.

50. The second blowing in the Trumpet, upon which everyone will be resurrected.

You say Jesus will return as a msulim, will that mean all Christians will conver to Islam? He is also prophecised in hindu scriptures, Buddhists and Sikh.

Does that mean we will all my muslims? :-s

:w:

Jesus was a Muslim to start with, he worshipped none but Allaah associating nothing with Him and never did he say anything except 'I am the Servant of Allaah'. He never called to what it is claimed that he called to today by the Christians.
 
I refuse to vote, because Muslims should pray to God, not waiting for Al Mahdi.... yes we are desperate because Muslims are not united... but it doesnt mean that we should forget Allah and waiting for Al Mahdi. Al Mahdi is just a human being...
 
Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu

We are without a doubt approaching the end times and we can expect Allah Tala to send Imam Mahdi (alaihi salam) very soon! These are exciting times we are living in. I encourage all the Muslims to pray fervently to Allah Subhana Wa Tala to hasten the appearance of Imam Mahdi. When he comes, our beloved Nabi Muhammad Mustafa (salallahu alaihi wa salam) instructed us that even if we have to crawl on our hands and knees, we need to do so to make our way to Imam Mahdi and give him baith (oath of allegience).

Voting a person isn't praying to that person, bro. But I take your point. We should continue to pray to Allah for assistance like any Muslim should, that He, in His Ultimate Wisdom, will lift up our problems in the best possible way according to His own Will.

I remember reading Bediuzzaman Said Nursi's analysis of the hadith referring to the emergence of Al-Mahdi & Nabi Isa. If I remember correctly, these two won't appear until people have almost given up hope, up to the point where people will ask, "Is there a Mahdi?" or "Perhaps there is no Mahdi."

Perhaps the calamity that this ummah is facing hasn't reach the boiling point yet. Everyday I read the newspaper about horrifying things that befall humanity, and I wonder how much worse can it be at the exact the time of Mahdi's emergence.

I quiver into jello just by thinking about that.:offended:

Not necessarily all Christians will convert into Islam. Those who sincerely believe in Jesus, believe in his real message of the Oneness of God, believe in what he will say after his second appearance, will follow him into Islam.

There will be others who will be stubborn to believe him as God, even when shown proof that he is not, as they are now when shown proofs from their own Bibles.
 
:sl:

islam isnt healthy, life isnt okay, but i dont want him to imerge...because that would mean the Day of Judgement being closer...i want to do something for islam...and i want to do it even if it takes generations.

:w:
 
mashaAlalh sis rooh.

inshaAllah one day he will appear and the day of judgment is approaching whether we like it or not.

wasalaamu aleykum wr br
 
I can't believe some are actually looking forward to Judgment Day.

Why, do you think it's morbid? I don't. Look around you, the world is in turmoil. People hate each other and kill maim, rape, loot. etc etc! - It will only get worse (as we say Kaljug - Age of Darkness) we reside in and if you've been told there is hope why not look forward to it!

Gur Fateh!

bro its not so much judgement day, its more looking forward to meeting Allah and rasul saws and all the pious people inshaAllah, of course its scary thinking what if we dont make it but we must hold onto the hope!!
 
SubhanAllaah...

The coming of the mehdi, the time of victory, the time of fitnah...whose knows what our emaan will be like...I am one of those who desires to be with the mehdi, but then when i think of all the things that will happen at that time, it still inspires me more to be with the mehdi...for the sake of Allaah...may Allaah protect us from the fitnah of that time...

SubhanAllaah...i hear stories that they are shaykh who visit the haramain often on pilgrimage, many scholars flock there, in the hope that that year the mehdi will appear...

It is a beatiful thought, but at the same time a scary one...you have to think, if the mahdi was to come, are you prepared for it?

WaSalaam...
 
Many signs has to appear and things to happen before IMAM's arrival. these all sighs are indications that time difficult to live on this earth(as prophet saw had told us).
we should ask for Allah's help at this difficult time. along with IMAM's arrival there is also One known as DAJJAL. Oh Allah Save us from ZALAMOON.
