Mahdi and Hadrat Isa(as)

[Scotpak]

I often wonder if the common person will know when Hadrat Isa(as) or/and the Mahdi have arrived like will their be a worldwide announcement or something??

We're certainly living in prophetic times so could it be possible that they're already here but living in isolation??.Discuss....

The coming of Imam Mahdi is one of the signs of Qiyamah as is the belief of the Ahlus-Sunnah and he has yet to appear. Abdullah ibn Masu`d has reported that the Prophet has said:

"The world will not pass away before the Arabs are ruled by a man (referring to Mahdi) of my family whose name will be the same as mine"
(Abu Dawud).


Signs that will Precede Imam Mahdi

1) A General Sign

There are many signs that will precede him, a general and very important sign is that he will come at a time when there is great confutation, intense disputes and violent deaths. When people are afflicted by disturbance and experiencing great fear. Calamities will fall upon the people, so much so that a man shall not find a shelter to shelter him self from oppression. There will be battles and fitnaas before his appearance. Every time a fitnaa has come to end, another will start, spread and intensify. The people will be troubled to such an extent that they will long for death. It is then that Imam Mahdi will be sent.

Abu Saeed Al-Khudri has repoted that the Messenger of Allah said "He will be sent at a time of intense disputes and differences among people and earthquakes..." (Ahmed)

and after the comeing of imam mehdi isa (pbuh) will emerage to fight the dajjal.

 

[ahmed_indian]

when prophet Muhammed came, the word spread far and wide that a prophet has arrived.

so when Imam Mehdi and Isa (as) will come, i think it will spread quickly due to communication technology.

and Allah knows best
