Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) in the Qur'an, the Torah, the Psalms and the Gospel

Introduction
Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) in the Qur'an, the Torah, the Psalms and the Gospel

In the Qur'an, our Almighty Lord promises believers a blessed dominion over the entire world. As part of that promise, those who have faith and do good works will inherit the world, and the moral values of Islam will reign. This means the global preeminence of beauty, fertility, joy, happiness, enlightenment, purity, peace, justice, brotherhood and love. In this time, when true faith in Allah, the One and Only prevails, all superstitious beliefs and philosophies and all irreligious ideologies will disappear from the face of the earth. Almighty Allah will make the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) and Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) His instruments in this great commission in the End Times.

Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) is spoken of in hundreds of trustworthy hadiths handed down from our Prophet (saas); the portents of the End Times, Hazrat Mahdi's (pbuh) physical characteristics, his coming and the periods before and after his coming are all described in detail. Since, by Almighty Allah's leave, these accounts all began taking place as of Hijri 1400 (1979/1980 in the Gregorian calendar), it seems that we are now living in the End Times and Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) has already appeared. It appears from all these signs which have come about in complete agreement with the hadiths that, by our Lord's will, little time remains until the global sovereignty of the moral values of Islam under the leadership of the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) and Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh).

The global ascendency of the values of Islam and the way of the Mahdi are described in detail in the Qur'an:

-     In their commentaries on the Qur'an, great Islamic scholars have analyzed a number of verses referring to Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) and the community of believers around him.

-     In the Qur'an, Almighty Allah commands Muslims to be united and makes this an obligation for them. Throughout the course of history Muslims have lived under the leadership of the mahdis of their own times, and today they must also live under a single leader, as our Lord commands. In the End Times it is Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) who will be the spiritual leader of Muslims, who will unite Muslims together as our Lord commands. Therefore,every verse that refers to unity among Muslims refers to the way of the Mahdi.

-     Our Almighty Lord reveals that there is great wisdom in the stories of the prophets in the Qur'an for clear-thinking people. Every prophet is the Mahdi of his own day. Therefore, every story of a prophet contains references to the End Times in which we are living, in other words, to the way of the Mahdi (pbuh). Our Prophet (saas) himself reveals that the stories of the Prophet Solomon (pbuh) and Dhu'l Qarnayn in Surat al-Kahf contain verses that refer to the system of the Mahdi.

-     Throughout the course of history there has been a struggle between the good and evil, between the supporters of satan and the supporters of the truth. In the Qur'an, Almighty Allah describes this great struggle and gives examples of it. Under the law of Allah, a great struggle is also taking place in the End Times between the way of the antichrist (antimessiah) and the way of the Mahdi.Therefore, in every verse of the Qur'an that Allah describes this struggle again refers to the system of the Mahdi.

It is clear that, through many of the verses of the Qur'an, our Lord tells Muslims of the way of the Mahdi and the global preeminence of the moral values of Islam.

The coming of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) is the greatest event in the history of the world and is therefore a fact also spoken of in other Holy Books. The Torah and the Psalms [Zabur] contain sections that have remained unaltered over time and are in full agreement with the Qur'an and the hadiths of the Prophet (saas). The verse "We wrote down in the Psalms, after the Reminder came: 'It is My servants who are righteous who will inherit the earth'." (Surat al-Anbiya', 105) says that the coming of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) and his global jurisdiction are also spoken of in the Torah and the Psalms. Indeed, when we look at the Torah and the Psalms we see that this is set out in great detail and in complete conformity with verses of the Qur'an and the hadiths. The coming of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh), under various names, such as "Mashiach", "the King Messiah", "Shiloh (He who is sent, the gift of Allah)" and others, is foretold in various uncorrupted sections, together with his global sovereignty. The periods before and after the appearance of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) are also described.

The hadiths of our Prophet (saas) reveal that the coming of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) is also described in all the sacred scriptures Allah revealed:

Naim has stated: "I find Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) thus in the pages of the Prophets (in the scriptures revealed to Adam, Seth, Enoch and Abraham [peace be upon them]): There will be no cruelty and nothing shameful in the actions of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh)." (Al-Muttaqi al-Hindi, Al-Burhan fi Alamat al-Mahdi Akhir az-Zaman, p. 21.)

The books of the Prophets reveal that, "The work of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) is not cruel and evil."(Ibn Hajar al-Haythami, Al-Qawl al-Mukhtasar fi `Alamat al-Mahdi al-Muntadhar, p. 49.)

Ibn al-Munawisays: "Thus it is written in the book of Daniel (pbuh)... Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) will appear, and Almighty Allah will save those previously subject to persecution and believers. The sunnahs will be revived with him..." (This hadith is to be found in a hand written copy of Al-Muttaqi al-Hindi, Al-Burhan fi Alamat al-Mahdi Akhir az-Zaman in the Suleymaniye Library.)

It can be seen from these hadiths that the way of the Mahdi appears in the Holy Scriptures of all divine faiths and that Muslims will find Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) when they look in these books.

The coming of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) is similarly foretold in those true parts of the Gospel that are compatible with the Qur'an. References such as "Paraclete" and "water pitcher" are noteworthy. These refer to a leader the glad tidings of whose coming in the End Times is given by the Prophet Jesus (pbuh), who will bring peace, security, unity and union to the world, and who is born under the sign of Aquarius (Allah knows the truth). (It is also highly significant that 2012 is regarded as the start of the Age of Aquarius.) The Prophet Jesus (pbuh) advises his disciples to join this trustworthy individual, who will come after him, to heed his words and to follow him to the end.

In addition, the signs of the End Times set out in the Gospel and the descriptions of the period following the coming of the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) and Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) are also in close agreement with verses of the Qur'an and hadiths handed down from our Prophet (saas). Therefore, all the signs of the End Times according to the Gospel have also come about one after the other. We can safely conclude from all this, on the basis of Islamic references in particular, and also of the Gospel, the Torah and the Psalms, that we are living in the age in which Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) has started his work.

This small book contains various verses from the Qur'an and passages from the Torah, the Gospel and the Psalms referring to the way of the Mahdi and the global preeminence of the moral values of Islam. In the End Times in which we are living, Allah the Compassionate and Merciful will make the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) and Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) His instruments in bringing about the ascendency of the true faith He has chosen for His servants, and will show the world His infinite might. The time we are living in is the beginning of a most blessed and wonderful period. The global dominion of Islam is Allah's promise, and our Lord's promise will definitely be made good.

That is Allah's promise. Allah does not break His promise. But most people do not know it. (Surat ar-Rum, 6)

A Call For Unity - leaflet

The heart is only satisfied when it turns to God

The Enlightenment in the 18th century and the 19th-century materialism that followed turned European society away from the revealed faiths, and the spiritual vacuum that resulted brought in the 20th century many false Eastern faiths to the Western way of thinking, particularly Hinduism and Buddhism. These false faiths played a significant role in eliminating the deep-rooted influence of religious moral values in society, in causing the adoption of the materialist world view and in deceiving people on a spiritual quest with “a false religion that opposes belief in God.”

Many people today seek peace and happiness in these false religions. Eastern religions espouse many heretical and distorted teachings, and all these religions’ practices conflict with both reason and logic. Above all else, these religions contain teachings that legitimize racism and violence.

All those who sincerely believe in God must wage a multi-faceted intellectual struggle against such movements that turn people away from belief in God and seek to replace the moral virtues taught by all the revealed faiths with materialist and superstitious beliefs. One of the things that needs to be done to that end is to reveal the huge gulf between a world filled with the peace, justice, equality, mutual aid, compassion, affection and love taught by the revealed faiths and a life style based on spiritual and physical perversion in superstitious faiths. It must not be forgotten that the aim of a great many people in Western society who sympathize with these heretical faiths is in fact to draw attention to themselves with their unusual and outlandish behavior. On the other hand, they mistakenly think they will find happiness in these false religions. But by turning away from the true paths of the true faiths communicated by God through His messengers they inflict terrible damage and a depressing world full of woe, fear and hardship on themselves. It needs to be known that true happiness in this world and the Hereafter is only possible through sincere faith in God and in abiding by His verses.

Superstitious teachings that will do nobody any good are advertised on television programs and in newspapers and magazines, and some people influenced by this indoctrination, looking for something and unaware of what they are doing, start doing the same things. The relkf fashion that has lately swep over the public is a product of the same deception. People who want to attract attention and be original are affected by these teachings propaganda. The fact is however, that relkl is a huge deception and can neverlead people to salvation. Man has no other friend, helper or guide than God. No power other than God can wreak any harm or bestow any benefit.

New Age beliefs, that atheist and materialist circles are trying to keep alive using various different propaganda techniques, are intended to turn people away from belief in God and cause them to abandon the moral values bestowed by religious virtues and replace God’s revelation with superstition. Present-day practices such as yoga, meditation, bioenergy theraples and transcendental meditation occupy a significant place in superstitious beliefs. Astrology, the tarot cards, fortune-telling and mediumism also represent a significant part of this culture. Heretical New Age beliefs include karma, reincarnation, relkl, feng shul, astral body, the belief in the power of crystals over the human body, black and white magic, telling the future, believing that tallsmans can ward off evil spirits, summoning the devil, telepathy and telekinesis. One frequently hears these terms these days as part of materialists propaganda activities.

A Last Word… People who have seen that materialist philosophies brought with them nothing but destruction in the last century have finally begun turning to God. This return to religion and spiritual matters that began in the late 20th century in particular has rapidly pervaded the entire world. People who believe in and pray to God have begun forming communities that attach the proper values to concepts such as family, the state, the nation and moral virtues. Islam, Christianity and Judaism all speak of mankind living in peace and security at a time near the Day of Judgment and of there being a sacred age when plenty, abundance and justice replace troubles of all kinds. Immorality, fraud and degeneration will come to an end in that age. Belief in the One God will spread across the world in this blessed time awaited for centuries, and people will attain salvation as they begin living by the moral values beloved of God, all the benefits of technology will be placed at the service of mankind, there will be huge advances in science and medicine and there will be plenty, abundance and fertility everywhere. We are now living in that blessed age. The return to Earth of the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) is a miraculous and metaphysical phenomenon of an extraordinary nature that will affect the whole world. For that reason, all believers must at once mobilize all their resources in a spirit of union and prepare to welcome him. This great preparatory activity performed with enthusiasm, fervor and joy will be prayer in action, but those who do not make such preparations will no doubt feel a terrible shame when the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) does return. All the signs show that his second coming is imminent and that there is no time to lose for the preparations to be made. At this point, all believers must collaborate together and wage a united intellectual struggle against atheist and materialist ideas that inflict disorder and corruption on the world. www.impactharunyahya.com According to Islam, the End Times are a blessed age that all believers have longed for over the centuries, when woes and shortages are replaced by plenty and abundance, injustice by justice, immorality by virtue and conflict by peace and security, when the moral virtues of Islam rule the world. The hadiths of the Prophet Muhammad (may God bless him and grant him peace) contain detailed descriptions of this time and its characteristics. During this time, God will make a servant with superior virtues known as the Mahdi (meaning he who guides to the right path) His instrument in leading people to salvation. Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) will first wage an intellectual struggle within the Islamic world and return Muslims who have broken away from the essence of Islam back to true faith and moral values. Later, together with the Prophet Jesus (pbuh), the Islamic and Christian worlds will unite in a single belief and the world will enjoy a time of peace, security, happiness and well-being known as the Golden Age. www.nocompulsioninislam.com

Muslims who abide by the Qur'an are the most modern people in their environments

God explains everything in the finest and wisest manner in the Qur’an, and reveals the true path to people through it. People who abide by the Qur’an are those who think most rationally, always make the best decisions, behave best and are the finest quality, most select, lovable and compassionate people in the world, who harm no-one but who benefit themselves and all those around them.

Under the influence of some publications opposed to belief in God and religious moral values, however, some people have a misconceived idea of Muslims and think they are not all modern or rational. Of course the role of some people who describe themselves as Muslims, but who live in a manner far removed from the moral values commanded by God in the Qur’an, in the formation of that mistaken view cannot be denied.

The fact is that every Muslim who embodies the moral virtues enjoined in the Qur’an is not only modern, but super-modern and exceedingly rational. The nobility in their appearance, demeanor and behavior carries them beyond the modernity and rationality of the time they live in. So much so that if the Prophet Muhammad (may God bless him and grant him peace) were to appear today he would immediately be recognized as the most contemporary person of this century. And even of the centuries to come.

The second coming of the Prophet Jesus (pbuh): Glad tidings Common to Christian World

The love of the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) has bestowed moral virtues on Christians down the ages. In the Qur’an, God describes Christians as "the people most affectionate to those who believe" and says:

... That is because some of them are priests and monks and because they are not arrogant. (Surat al-Ma’ida, 82)

In another verse He refers to Christians’ positive moral values:

Then We sent Our Messengers following in their footsteps and sent Jesus son of Mary after them, giving him the Gospel. We put compassion and mercy in the hearts of those who followed him. (Surat al-Hadid, 27)

Throughout the course of history, Christians have experienced various forms of oppression, chosen lives of hardship by withdrawing from the joys of this world, and made great sacrifices. These things are all important signs of their sincerity. However, that sincerity needs to be strengthened still further in this time when the return of the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) is close at hand.

• According to Christian sources, too, the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) will return to Earth. The second coming of the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) is referred to many times in the Gospel.

• According to Christian sources, too, the return of the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) is close at hand. Many Christians believe that the second coming is imminent because almost all the portents in the Gospel and the Torah regarding the coming of the Messiah have come about.

• According to Christian sources, too, the return of the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) will be the greatest happening in the history of the world. Since such a Prophet as Jesus (pbuh), blessed by God, will soon be returning to Earth, the preparations for that must be made and the matter kept constantly on the agenda.

• Since the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) will unite all believers when he returns, all disagreements, disputes and quarrels among Christians that will be meaningless in the near future must be set aside now.

• When the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) returns, all Christians and Muslims who believe in him will unite in a common belief, so we must strive from now on to overcome all prejudice and distrust between Christians and Muslims.

The final book of the Gospel, "Revelation", says:

… "The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his [Messiah], and He will reign for ever and ever.” (Revelation 11:15)

There is not one of the People of the Book who will not believe in him before he dies… (Surat an-Nisa’, 159)

It is indicated in this verse of the Qur’an that when the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) returns everyone will believe in him, and that faith will thus rule the world in the End Times.

All Christians must share the awareness, fervor, passion, excitement and joy of this approaching great event. As Muslims who share these feelings, we call on Christians:

Come, let us prepare for the approaching return of the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) together. Let us respect the differences between our beliefs in the knowledge that the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) will teach us the truth. Let us strive to fill the world with the peace, brotherhood, compassion and love that he will wish to see. Let us together wage an intellectual struggle against philosophies and ideologies that are hostile to him and deny the existence of God.

Come, let us together await one of the greatest miracles and gladdest tidings in the history of the world.

The second coming of the Prophet Jesus (pbuh): Glad tidings common to Christians and Muslims

The fact that the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) will return to Earth is most important for Muslims. By a miracle from God, he is a prophet who was born with no father, called the People of Israel to the truth and showed them many miracles. He is the Messiah and, as revealed in the Qur’an, "the word of God" (Surat an-Nisa’, 171). With his return to Earth, disputes between Muslims and Christians, who believe in God in the same way, share the same moral values and are, again as revealed in the Qur’an, "the most affectionate" (Surat al-Ma’ida, 82) to one another will be resolved and these two great religious communities will be unified. Members of the other revealed religion, the Jews, will find guidance by believing in the Prophet Jesus (pbuh), the Messiah (Surat an-Nisa’, 159). In this way, the three revealed faiths will be united, and there will be a single faith on earth, based on belief in God. That religion will inflict an intellectual defeat on pagan beliefs and philosophies that deny God. The world will thus be freed from wars, conflicts, racial and ethnic enmities, oppression and injustice, and mankind will enjoy a “Golden Age” of peace and happiness.

This is without doubt one of the greatest events in the history of the world. This climate in which the three revealed faiths will be united means that the whole continent of America, Europe, the Islamic world, Russia and Israel will establish an alliance based on common belief, a thing that has never been brought about in the world before. The peace, security, stability and happiness this union will bring to the world have never before been established, either, nor anything like it.

Furthermore, the fact of the Prophet Jesus’ (pbuh) return to Earth is one of the greatest miracles of all time. In the light of the signs imparted by God in the Qur’an, the hadiths of our Prophet (may God bless him and grant him peace) and comments by Islamic scholars, we believe that this blessed time is imminent. As Muslims, we feel great excitement at the imminent return of the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) and are doing all we can to prepare ourselves and the world for this blessed guest.

We call on Christians to be as sensitive, aware and enthusiastic as possible on the subject.
