Re: Steeped in ancient mysticism, passion of Pakistani Sufis infuriates Taliban
I know that Kharjees and their supporters have made 100s of baseless claims about Najdi hadith and location of Najd. I would not be surprised if someone from them would come with idea that since Najd mean upland … or land at height … Najd in Hadith is Moon and Kharjees would be Aliens who would appear with Dajjal who would be a demon from Mars. 
**Anyhow … 4 things are clear in hadith and that is:
**
1: At time of prophet (SAW), Najd has to a land where people were Muslims and land was under Muslim rule.
Reason: Muslims seeing Prophet (SAW) praying for Shaam and Yemen, asked Prophet (SAW) to pray for ‘Najd’ … a place they considered as their own and people following their faith (Islam) … hence ‘our Najd’
2: Najd has to be at height in Arabia … and that is Najd we know today too (located in KSA) … it is a plateau around 1000 meters above sea level … higher than any place in Arabia east of Madina … hence it is called Najd.
Reason: Najd means a land at height … or upland … or highland.
3: Language of Najd during the time of Prophet (SAW) must be Arabic … and it is known that Arabic was language of only Arabian Peninsula during the time of Prophet (SAW).
Reason: Najd is Arabic word and that is the reason name of this place (Najd) is in Arabic (with its meaning … that is, Najd or highland).
4: Najd has to be ‘East of Madina (exact East)’ … and east of Madina there is only two cities of significance and they are Riyadh and Abu Dhabi. Both cities ‘Riyadh and Abu Dhabi’ lies exactly east of Madina … I mean exactly … all falling on line of latitude (24.46 degree) north of equator.
Reason: Prophet (SAW) pointed towards East … and since Prophet (SAW) was Prophet of Allah, he knew where he was pointing and wherever he pointed it must be exact. People also knew where he was pointing and they could not have lied about where Prophet (SAW) pointed … and thus their claim that Prophet (SAW) pointed towards East has to be accurate and exact.
Anyone calling a place Najd mentioned in Hadith somewhere in north (like Iraq) or any other place, must be weak in not only intelligence but also in geography).
Now … if you can find a place that fulfils all above identity requirements of location … clear identity requirements mentioned in hadith … then talk else accept that Najd is what we have Najd in KSA and hadith is referring to this Najd (KSA).
I am not going into traits of people who would appear from Najd, just leaving that aside even though Wahabis, Takfeeris/kharjees fall straight into it. … … I am just quoting obvious from hadith regarding location of Najd … and I know that no place on earth can be Najd mentioned in hadith other than one we have in KSA.
Remember … after departure of Prophet (SAW), first fitna also came out of Najd and that was of Muslima the false prophet … but obviously, that fitna was different and not as bad as present fitna … because people of present fitna according to hadith would be claiming themselves Muslim … would be staunch ritual practicing Muslim, would read Quran beautifully, would be praying 5 times a say, would be takfeeri/kharjee in every way, would create fitna and fisad all over Muslim world (as they are doing that with the help of suicide bombers, deviant preaching, terrorism, bombs, guns, and petro-dollar), would have little brain … and would eventually join Dajjal.
