*Imam Mahdi is HERE!!!*

Salaam Alaykum

br , may be posted a video ...sorry I can't see anything

Can u describe what u want to say ?

Someone claim's to be Imam Mahdi; its not the first time anyone's claimed to be Mahdi, but it does get attention fast.

For those who can't see the youtube video; click here.

hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha poor guy.

but i think he might be mentally ill

imam mahdi won't be aware that he is mahdi until he is being chased and takes refuge inside Mecca. ..
this is funny, while my brother was making pilgrimage a couple of years ago, another poor sap claimed to be imam mahdi, plus said a whole bunch of craziness on the side, that they had to take him to the local hospital and treat him

The speaker should have listed more reasons other than just speaking Arabic. I hope maybe he spoke to the guy after the show.

The speaker didn't really have much to say; he appeared to feel a bit sorry for him. Its not normal for people to claim they are Imam Mahdi, or Mehendi for that matter. I've heard of a few cases of mentally ill people making such claims.

LOL. "Sir, I want to reveal you". He's a good comedian, that man.

I believe the speaker treated it as a laughing matter. Which, in fact, it was.

Salaam

I believe the speaker handled it well

peace

Duno how to react to this kinda..... can we take it like this.. Its part of ALLAH' plan to teach us ..that we need to be beware of these kinda people in future..

Masha'allah.

There will be too many false claims in the future.....May ALLAH guide us.

LOL wow thats pretty funny. The way that he talked/looked made it soo much funnier. Like we all expect the real Imam Mahdi to be physically strong/fit and look and talk like a leader. And then this guy comes up...lol maybe he's not crazy but is just tryna get famous. Whatever the case, inshallah Allah gives him hidayah

I think the guy was little mentally ill, the host could have been little nicer instead of making everyone chuckle about it. The only thing I dont like about some of the Peace TV shows is when people start to clap. It is not from Islam to clap. It is from jahilliyah. And its even more annoying when some of the hosts or lecturers gives the audience time to clap and does not tell them not to clap. may Allah increase us in knowledge and forgive us.

its true indeed they do make mistakes ive noticed. i think the prophet (saw) would not have encouraged a good old chuckle at the brother. i think it could have been dealt with differently since it is not the character of a muslim to have a good laugh especially on national t.v when there could be a more serious reason for his behaviour

hes badly in need of ruqyah. it could be a jinn talking through his mouth. we have to be careful because from these mistakes which have been spotted other muslims can become ignorant.

and we see that happening today.

This is nothing new and has been going on for long time...

Here are some that have claimed to be Mahdi

People claiming to be the Mahdi
Main article: People claiming to be the Mahdi

Muhammad Ahmad, a Sudanese sufi sheikh, created a state, the Mahdiyah, on the basis of his claim to be the Mahdi.
Mirza Ghulam Ahmad claimed to be the Mahdi and the second coming of Jesus and founded Ahmadiyya, an Islamic religious movement.Since the birth of Islam, various individuals have claimed to be the Mahdi. Similar to the notion of a Messiah in the Judeo-Christian religions, the notion of a Mahdi as a redeemer to establish a society has lent itself to various interpretations leading to different claims within minorities or by individuals within Islam.

The first historical reference to a movement using the name of Mahdi is al-Mukhtar's rebellion against the Umayyad caliphate in 686 CE, almost 50 years after Muhammad's death. Al-Mukhtar claimed that Muhammad ibn al-Hanafiyyah, a son of the fourth caliph and first Shia imam, Ali, was the Mahdi and would save the Muslim people from the rule of the Umayyads. Ibn al-Hanifiyyah himself was not actively involved in the rebellion, and when the Umayyads successfully quashed it, they left him undisturbed.
Muhammad Jaunpuri (1443–1505), founder of the Mahdavi sect, was born in Jaunpur in northeastern India (in the modern-day state of Uttar Pradesh), a descendant of the imam Husayn through Musa al-Kadhim. He claimed to be the Mahdi on three occasions, first in Mecca and then in two places in India, attracting a large following, although opposed by the ulema. He died at the age of 63 in the year 1505 at Farah, Afghanistan, and is buried in a sanctuary there.
The Báb (Arabic: الباب‎ / English: the Gate) claimed to be the Mahdi in 1844, thereby founding the religion of Bábism. He was later executed by firing squad in the town of Tabriz. His remains are currently kept in a tomb at the Bahá'í World Centre in Haifa, Israel. The Báb is considered the forerunner of Bahá'u'lláh (pronounced ba-haa-ol-laa / Arabic: بهاء الله‎ / English: Glory of God), and both are considered prophets of the Bahá'í Faith. The declaration by the Báb to be the Mahdi is considered by Baha'is to be the beginning of the Bahá'í calendar.[37]
Muhammad Ahmad, a Sudanese sufi sheikh of the Samaniyya order, declared himself Mahdi in June 1881 and went on to lead a successful military campaign against the Turko-Egyptian government of Sudan. Although he died shortly after capturing the Sudanese capital, Khartoum, in 1885, the Mahdist state continued under his successor, Abdallahi ibn Muhammad, until 1898, when it fell to the British army following the Battle of Omdurman.
Mirza Ghulam Ahmad claimed to be both the Mahdi and the second coming of Jesus in the late nineteenth century in British India. He founded the Ahmadiyya religious movement in 1889, which, although considered by its followers to be Islam in its pure form, is not recognized as such by the majority of mainstream Muslims. In 1974, the Pakistani parliament adopted a law declaring the Ahmadis to be non-Muslims. Since Ghulam Ahmad's death, the Ahmadiyya community has been led by his successors and has grown considerably.[38]
In the twentieth century, Muhammad bin abd Allah al-Qahtani was proclaimed the Mahdi by his brother-in-law, Juhayman al-Otaibi, who led over 200 militants to seize the Grand Mosque in Mecca in November 1979. The uprising was defeated after a two-week siege in which at least 300 people were killed.
A number of people have been claimed to be the Mahdi by their followers or supporters, including:

Muhammad ibn Abdallah An-Nafs Az-Zakiyya
Muhammad ibn Abdullah al-Aftah ibn Ja'far al-Sadiq
Ja'far al-Sadiq (according to the Tawussite Shia)
Musa al-Kadhim (according to the Waqifite Shia)
Muhammad ibn Qasim (al-Alawi)
Yahya ibn Umar
Muhammad ibn Ali al-Hadi
Riaz Ahmed Gohar Shahi (according to Messiah Foundation International)
