The whole world is kicking up a row for the Mahdi. The incidents will become intensified even further in the following months. A person and a group that they least expected will assume the task of leading the Islamic world. The whole of Europe and the US will support this group.

Imam Mahdi will be a leader supported by the whole world. Mahdi (pbuh) will not have an opponent. Who will make him accepted? God will make him accepted. God will reveal it to the hearts of people and people will be convinced about their allegiance to the Mahdi (pbuh) in a way that they wouldn't understand themselves. They will strangely understand that they love him. They will strangely start trusting him and believe that he will be the one saving them; they will believe that he will be the one instrumental in their salvation.

Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) and his students are the “B’nai Israel” of the End Times. In the Torah, when we look for B’nai Israel the first thing that comes to mind is the Moshiach, that is, the Mahdi and his students. They are the true B’nai Israel.

Mahdi (pbuh) will be the one who opens the Holy Ark [of the Covenant], insha'Allah. The time for that is drawing near. The whole world will see the Holy Ark.

The main characteristic of the Mahdi (pbuh) is that he is a man of love. The one who enables peace, justice and love is the Mahdi (pbuh). One should keep away from those who talk about fighting. One should keep away from those who preach bloodshed.

Unbelievers are one nation. Some of them appear as the militants of the PKK, some others will appear in another form. The same holds true for ISIS (Islamic State of Iraq and Syria); it is a system that doesn’t abide by the Qur’an and it acts in line with the system of the idolaters. Eventually they will abide by the Mahdi (pbuh) and bend their knees before him.

The students of the Mahdi(pbuh) are under the protection of God.

There will be no murder and slaughter in the time of the Mahdi (pbuh). There will be no bloodshed. Radiance will come when Islam comes, love will come.

After the appearance of the Mahdi (pbuh) and the establishment of the Islamic Union, the impact of the good deeds one collects would drop from one million to three. That is because the rest will be very easy. All hardships will thus be removed. The antichrist (dajjal) will then be dead. The attacks of one’s lower-self would be removed as well, so everything will be fine.

The hearts of those who wait for the Mahdi (pbuh) should be at ease. They should not make haste. Their reward is increasing as the time they wait increases. They should think about that as collecting handfuls of gold. One would collect more as Almighty God gives him another 24 hours to collect.

One of the main characteristics of the system of the Mahdi (pbuh) is that it will not conflict with anyone’s interests. It won’t conflict with the interests of communists, neither of irreligious nor with the interests of Christians and Jews. Everyone will be at ease.

Moshiach, Mahdi (pbuh) is the force that will weaken the strength of the satan. God has given that power, that means to him.

Women are being oppressed everywhere in the world and people are merely watching this oppression. With the system of the Mahdi this scourge will be removed. Mahdi (pbuh) will annihilate this scourge. The system in which women are held in high esteem, in which women enjoy utmost freedom, is the system of the Mahdi.

Mahdi (pbuh) is a man of love. He is not a stern, despotic, domineering person. He is a man living in his home. He is a man who functions as a supporting wall for the Islamic world constantly pointing out the importance of love. Mahdi (pbuh) will also not interfere with the government, he will not interfere in politics.

Mahdi (pbuh) is a fervent implementer of love. He is a man who fervently distributes love that the whole world needs to the whole world.

Bigotry, fanaticism is such a scourge on humanity. Fanaticism and misinterpretation of the Qur'an is what lies at the root of the troubles the whole Islamic world is now suffering from. They make havoc. These all stem from the conservative Orthodox understanding of Islam. There is such a scourge upon the world and Mahdi (pbuh) is the one who will save us all from this scourge.

People will approach the community of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) with suspicion as well. The whole Islamic world will have suspicions about them, and because of those suspicions they will only be 313 people.

The system of the Mahdi does not consist of a spiritual identity. Mahdi is a person, he has students. But of course his personality and his students together constitute a spiritual identity as well.

The real Mahdi (pbuh) has small power. I mean he has a small community, a small group of friends. Almighty God loves creating big things from scratch, He loves making tiny things great. For instance, God creates a big, 25 or 30 meter high fig tree from a small, tiny fig seed within 15 to 20 years and lets us eat hundreds of thousands of figs from that tree.

God does not only send Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh), but He also sends Hazrat Mahdi's students as well. People might assume that it is only Hazrat Mahdi that is being sent but that is not the case. His 313 students are sent specifically as well.

If Mahdi and his students sincerely put an end to idolatry, God promises in Surat An-Nur verse 55 that He will make Islam prevail in the world. God says; "I will give you security, in place of your fear” “I will firmly establish your religion for you in all respects all through the world. But you should not ascribe partners to Me, that is all I ask from you," God says.

The students of the Mahdi are striving with all their might to get rid of this policy of hatred all over the world.

Muslims will become vigorous and be refreshed as time passes, they will prosper. The way for the system of the Mahdi will be constantly be open; this is how it is preordained in destiny by God. There will be a lot of obstacles but they will not succeed to stop them. All power belongs to God.

One should not emulate unbelief. There is no peace, no loyalty, no real friendship in the system of unbelief. The unbelievers would bring ruin or harm to you the minute they see a conflict of their interest, they would give you up the minute their interests end. You would then be living in a bitter world in which disloyalty runs rampant. The unbelievers could even act treacherous to you right when they wake up. You wouldn’t have a guarantee for two hours of peace. With unbelievers you might face a completely different personality in two hours.

Unbelievers are only your friends when they have an interest in being so. They turn into your enemies when their interest in you ends but that is not the case in Islam. In Islam there is patience, there is compassion.
