According to all Islamic scholars, Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) has come and is on his duty now.

After Prophet Jesus returns and passes away, he will be buried next to the grave of the Prophet Mohammad (saas).

All the important events of the End Times will take place in Istanbul. The hadiths of our Prophet (saas) herald that the Mahdi (pbuh) will emerge from Istanbul.

At the time of the Mahdi women will be completely free. No one will intervene in their clothing or make up style.

Believers do not need to be superior in numbers, but they need to be high quality and have deep faith. Prophet Jesus (pbuh) influenced the world with only twelve companions.

Both Jesus Messiah (pbuh) and the Mahdi (pbuh) have come. They will not advent until last moment. God conceals them as part of a plan and will finally make them appear. After Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) passes away, Jesus Messiah (pbuh) will continue with the efforts for communicating religion.

God reveals in the Qur’an that Prophet Jesus (pbuh) will return to Earth and then the morality of Islam will prevail throughout the world.

I have never claimed to be the Mahdi and I'll never claim it for the rest of my life but the coming of the Mahdi and Jesus Messiah is a fact.

It is foretold in the hadiths of the Prophet Mohammad (saas) that wild animals will be friends with one another in the End Times.

It is possible that the story of Dhul-Qarnayn in the Qur’an refers to the Mahdi (pbuh) and not someone who lived in the past.

It’s right that our Christian brothers love Jesus as God’s manifestation but it’d be wrong to accept him as –may God forbid the claim- a deity. Such a claim would be against reason as well.

Our Prophet (saas) said that medical technology will advance a lot at the time of the Mahdi and cures for many diseases will be found.

Some people are alarmed everyday saying that there is no Mahdi. The reason of this panic is that they know for sure that the Mahdi (pbuh) is real.

The conferences and panel discussions organized to say ‘The Mahdi will not come’ are also one of the portents of the emergence of the Mahdi (pbuh)

The Mahdi (pbuh) will not hold any position or rank. He does not want the worldly life.

Those who avoid mentioning the portents of the Mahdi’s coming, which have been realized in the End Times, are hiding our Prophet (saas)’s miracles.

Our Prophet (saas) foretold that Prophet Jesus, when he returns, would have a student group of 1,400 people composed of both men and women.

Our Prophet (pbuh) gave hundreds of details about the End Times, about the Mahdi and all of them came true. Therefore the Mahdi movement is the number one subject we should be focusing on.

I focus on the topic of Mahdi (as) because we are in the time of the Mahdi. Our Prophet (pbuh) also talked about the Mahdi all the time.

According to the hadiths and the statements of the great Islamic scholars, this is the last century for the Mahdi and Jesus to come. We will see both in this century.

The authenticity of the hadiths about the Mahdi is confirmed when the happenings informed in the hadiths become reality. All the portents described in the hadiths about the Mahdi have occurred exactly the same way as informed in the hadiths.

The Prophet (saas) says "The Mahdi’s name will be compatible with mine”, he does not say their names will be the same.

Despite the hadiths revealing otherwise, those who claim that the Mahdi will appear 300 or 400 years from now are de-motivating Muslims and dragging them into indolence.

A believer considers serving Islam as a blessing but hypocrites don’t want to serve Islam. They follow their own evil religious law. Living alone, being stingy and feckless, leading an aimless, vain life, any act of moral turpitude and lying are all acceptable in the evil religious understanding of hypocrites.

A believer could never understand the spirit of a hypocrite or an unbeliever. It is a way of life that believers do not know and would never understand.
