ok, thanks

Re: Hadith about the last Mujaddid of the Ummah - Imam Mehdi

There is not point starting another argument between Ahmadis and other muslims, it’s been discussed trillion times before and the thread always ends up being locked.
I always find it shocking that 0.5% of Ahmadis consider rest 99.5 muslims as “kafirs”, it’s a pity because most Ahmadis otherwise are good muslims and patriotic Pakistanis ( just the pakistani ones obviously).

They are exellent lectures, if you want them on a VCD PM I will send you.

He also delivered lectures on Taheed and Shirk and also he delivered 18 Lectures in English on Mawlid un Nabi SAW. He gives evidences from Qur’an, Hadith, Sahabah and…

He rejected the claims of those ppl whop say it is invention of India and Pakistan. Those ppl who call it Biddah there Imams have been celebrating it.

Wassalaam

Tahir

Re: Hadith about the last Mujaddid of the Ummah - Imam Mehdi

The narrations of the Prophet (Sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) prophesy of a Muslim force from the East ("al-Mashriq"), possibly from the land of "Khorasan" (Ahmad, Tirmithi, etc, ) which is today Afghanistan , that will march towards the West conquering everything in site and will remain undefeated until they reach Jerusalem (termed "Eeliyaa'" in the Hadeeth). They and their Ameer will give bayah to the Mahdi. However, in the path of this force from the East lies a powerful behemoth called Iran from where the Prophet (Sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) said Dajjal will appear with a following of 70,000 Jews in Isfahaan (Abu Bakr, Radee Allaahuanhu, said this would be in the direction of Khorasan in the city of Isfahan). Thus we can assume there will be a major war between the forces of the Sunnah in the East and the Iranians and their "70,000 Jews" (SaHeeH Muslim) who lie in the path of Jerusalem .

As is well known, Iran was the bastion of the Sunnah throughout much of Islam's history since the Prophet (Sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam). The Prophet (Sallallaahualayhi wa sallam) had said that knowledge would be carried by the people of Salman al-Faarisi, ie the Persians (SaHeeH al-Bukhaari). This was fulfilled in the fact that our Sunnah was recorded and preserved by the greatest Imaams of Hadeeth such as Imaam al-Bukhari, Imaam Muslim, Imaam at-Tirmithi, Imaam Abi Dawud, and others. This legacy continued until the tragic conquest of Iran in the 16th century by the Azeri heretics called the Safavids. Upon their conquest, Iran went from 90% Shaafiee to 90% Shii nearly overnight.

"The shah is said to have threatened that death would be the penalty for any opposition to his wishes with respect to religion. If anyone had thought this an empty threat, they were soon to be disabused. As the Safawid forces marched across Persia , Shi'ism was imposed at the point of the sword. Sunnis who were reluctant to see the error of their ways were treated with great brutality. Many were executed."

"But such opportunistic defectors from Sunnism, useful and indeed essential as they were, could not provide the theological and legal backbone for the new Shi'i establishment. No one in Persia could do this. Shah Isma'il had to look elsewhere....Many of the leading theologians and lawyers of the Safawid period were of 'Amili origin, including the most influential religious figure of Isma'il's own time, al-Karak. The religious brain drain to Persia long continued: it was not a merely temporary phenomenon." "Shah Ismail and the Establishment of Shiism", Medieval Persia: 1040-1797, pp. 112-123, David Morgan]

The population had the choice to die or become Shiah. The entirety of theUlamaa' were slaughtered and heretics from Lebanon brought in to create a new breed of Shiism which had only been known by madmen in the hills of the Caucasus and Amili in Lebanon . Since this event, Iran which was a center of Islamic civilization turned into a chasm of darkness and doom for the past 400 years. Iran has been Shia for only last 3 centuries of its 12 centuries of its Islamic history. In this time the Safavids moved the capital to Isfahan , the place of Dajjal's emergence. So successful were the Safavids in thwarting the Ottoman's incursions into Europe that the Austrians prayed for their victories in their churches and its diplomats remarked, "Had it not been for the (Safavid) Shah, we would be reading the Qur'an today like they do in Barbary ( North Africa )."

However, in this period only one people were able to present interlude to this darkness. They were a tiny band of a few thousand Afghan tribesmen (mostly Ghilzai Pashtoons) who crushed the Safavids in a series of battles and marched towards their capital, Isfahan , and captured it in 1722. This small band of tribesmen with no formal training in warfare did what the Ottomans could never do, destroy the Safavid Empire. However, as has been the legacy of these fierce tribesmen, no one has ever been able to defeat them, nor have they ever been able to rule as statesmen. Thus, it was only shortly afterwards that they rescinded back into their now independent Afghanistan leaving Iranian rule to Nader Shah and a succession of short-lived dynasties overthrowing each other until the emergence of the Pahlavis from whom the Shah of Iran who reigned in the 70's drew his authority.

^ Khanbaba :jazak: indeed its more detailed info.

Re: Hadith about the last Mujaddid of the Ummah - Imam Mehdi

This last Saturday QTV aired Tahir-ul-Qadri's 2nd part of Zahoor-e-Mehdi. As per his finding he thinks the time of Imam Mehdi coming has been passed (at least for this century). From his finding it supose to be either in 1200 or will be in 2200, 3200, 4200 and so on (Islamic Calander).

Is this really true? I am trying to find out if thats what other Ulema's think? Anyone has more knowledge on this?

Re: Hadith about the last Mujaddid of the Ummah - Imam Mehdi

^^
False.
Islam has left the time of Imaam Mahdi’s appearance in the dark. Islam is silent on this issue. The claims made by people in this regard are devoid of substance.
Allah Ta’ala knows best.

Re: Hadith about the last Mujaddid of the Ummah - Imam Mehdi

Tahirul Qadri sahib has defined the words "Mi'atain" in hadith. Miatain means 200 years, but in context of the hadith they mean 1200 years. Majority of scholars in 19th century were of the opinion that Mahdi should appear at the head of 13th Century AH.

Now that time has passed and it has been more than 100 years since then. The hadith of 1200 years is not wrong, but Qadri sahib has to interpret it in a different way to make his point.

The problem with a lot of Mahdi ahadith is that they give conflicting accounts. The most reliable books of Ahadith do not mention the word Mahdi. But they do mention the appearance of Jesus.

Re: Hadith about the last Mujaddid of the Ummah - Imam Mehdi

Ahadith related to Mahdi are actually Shia Ahadith which were mixed with our Ahadith some how. Javed Ahmed Ghamidi speculated that maybe (although he accepted that he needs to do a lot more research to give a final saying) Mahdi figure was actually foretold by the prophet for Umar bin Abdul Aziz, who were the only one after the four righteous caliphs to restore order and peace in an examplary way. After him, we never received such a leader. I'd subscribe to such a view rather than believe in something about which Qur'an should have said, if Mahdi had to come.

Re: Hadith about the last Mujaddid of the Ummah - Imam Mehdi

IMAAM MAHDI

**ACCORDING TO THE **Hadith, Imaam Mahdi (alayhis salaam) will make his appearance at the age of 40 years. We have been hearing for decades that Imaam Mahdi has already been born. In terms of this theory or conjecture, Imaam Mahdi should now be well over 40 years, yet he has not made his appearance.

Since the early 90’s the theory of Imaam Mahdi’s imminent appearance was being propagated by some learned men. The obsession with his imminent appearance constrained some Ulama to even fix the year of his appearance. This theory became a somewhat grounded belief.

Hence some Ulama claimed that Imaam Mahdi (alayhis salaam) would appear during the Hajj of the year 1424 A.H. (2003). The certitude which they had developed induced them to advise the Hujjaaj not to proceed to Mina during the Hajj of 1424 as there would prevail great strife and bloodshed which will be triggered by Imaam Mahdi’s appearance in that year.

POSTPONEMENT
But, the event never materialized. Muslims had been told repeatedly by some Ulama that Imaam Mahdi would appear in the year 2001. When he did not appear in 2001, the date was extended to 2002, then 2003. After all these predictions and postponements have failed, we now ‘hear’ nothing but silence from the quarters of prediction.

**
HALLUCINATION
**
One aged shaikh of tasawwuf who incidentally is a professor and an author of several Deeni books had exceeded all limits of propriety in this matter, informed us as recently as a few months ago that he had been in telephonic communication with Imaam Mahdi (alayhis salaam), and that the announcement of his appearance is imminent.

While we cannot accuse the eminent shaikh of fabricating a lie, we shall not be rendering him an injustice by concluding that he has become the victim of hallucination. Those who make predictions of ‘certitude’ regarding the appearance of Imaam Mahdi (alayhis salaam) exceed the prescribed limits of the Shariah. It is incorrect and impermissible to attempt to supersede the Shariah. While Imaam Mahdi’s appearance is a fact of the Shariah, the precise occasion of his appearance has been withheld from our knowledge.

It is improper to seek to give clarity to issues which the Shariah has left ambiguous.

**
LUDICROUS
**
The Shariah has not revealed the exact time or year of Imaam Mahdi’s appearance. It is therefore improper and ignorant to attempt to unravel the mystery surrounding the date of his appearance. Those who exceed the limits of the Shariah always succeed in making themselves appear ludicrous. Imaam Mahdi (alayhis salaam) will appear at the decreed time of his appearance.
Awareness of the precise time is of no significance. Of significance is our preparation for the journey beyond the Qabr—the journey which commences with Maut.

Re: Hadith about the last Mujaddid of the Ummah - Imam Mehdi

It is conspiracy
1. to prove taliban of afganistan to right and will join Imam Mehdi (A).
2. to show Imam Mehdi (A) is less important than Prophet Jesus (A)
3. to show Sunni Muslim belive in Imam Mehdi (A)

Re: Hadith about the last Mujaddid of the Ummah - Imam Mehdi
