Muhammad al-Mahdi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Shias believe that the Mahdi was born in 868 as Muhammad ibn Hasan ibn Ali.

He is the person believed by Shi'as to be the Mahdi; a figure considered by both Sunnis and Shias to be the eventual saviour of humankind. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Muhammad_al-Mahdi   (1327 words)

Mahdi When "Mahdi" was used for the Abbasid Caliph an-Nasir, he was defined as the final Mahdi, and there were no need to expect any future Mahdis. In Sunni Islam, the "Mahdi" is just one of several important figures, while the "Mahdi" of Shi'i Islam has a real eschatological importance, and is in the future the most important figure for Islam as well as the world. The last of these 8 would be a figure simply called Mahdi or Isa (not to be confused with the historical Jesus). i-cias.com /e.o/mahdi.htm   (639 words)

Sudan Home After less than a year in office, Sadiq al Mahdi dismissed the government because it had failed to draft a new penal code to replace the sharia, reach an agreement with the IMF, end the civil war in the south, or devise a scheme to attract remittances from Sudanese expatriates. In June 1986, Sadiq al Mahdi formed a coalition government with the Umma, the DUP, the NIF, and four southern parties. Instead of removing the ministers who had been associated with the failures of the first coalition government, Sadiq al Mahdi retained thirteen of them, of whom eleven kept their previous portfolios. sudanhome.com /info/sadiq.htm   (1003 words)

Sudan Vision --- Independant Daily - Editorial ,Al Mahdi Lashes out at AU The outspoken Al Mahdi said, "All movement is constrained because the government is one to its members." Such a statement by a former statesman invites mockery. Al Mahdi should understand that leadership is no longer the domain of those who have descended from certain families. It seems Al Mahdi is furious at the interaction of NATO forces, hence driving against the mainstream trend. www.sudanvisiondaily.com /modules.php?name=News&file=print&sid=5934   (317 words)

Sudan - Umma Party By the time Sadiq al Mahdi realized that ending the civil war and retaining the sharia were incompatible political goals, public confidence in his government had dissipated, setting the stage for military intervention. Sadiq al Mahdi had never objected to the sharia becoming the law of the land, but rather to the "un-Islamic" manner Nimeiri had used to implement the sharia through the September Laws. Following a brief reconciliation with Nimeiri in the mid-1970s, Sadiq al Mahdi was imprisoned for his opposition to the government's foreign and domestic policies, including his 1983 denunciation of the September Laws as being un-Islamic. www.countrystudies.us /sudan/68.htm   (367 words)

[One Ummah] - al-Imam al-Mahdi The majority of Muslims, however, accept the traditions of the Mahdi as legitimate since they are found within many of the hadith books which are considered authentic (or partially authentic) by the majority of the schools of thought within Islam. The Imami school of thought is unanimous in their belief that the Mahdi has already been born, lives among us, but is not known to the people. Over this period, there were several people falsely claiming to be the Mahdi or whose followers elevated them to this status (against their own will). www.mail-archive.com /deen_al_fitr@oneummah.net/msg00039.html   (1810 words)

Imam Mehdi When Marwan said that Mahdi (AS) is not one of his father's descendants, he meant the descendants of Imam Hasan (AS), for Mahdi (AS) is the descendant of Imam Husain (AS) and is son of a slave woman (umm walad).

The Awaited Saviour: Imam al-Mahdi The appearance of the Mahdi is Allah's favour for the oppressed and the weak and is a means of their coming to power and gaining the promised Divine succession in the whole world. With reference to the Mahdi's role, they ask as to how it is possible for such an individual, howsoever great he may be, to play such a decisive role in the world, when it is known that no individual by himself, can make history nor can he give it an entirely new turn. The answer to this question is that this concept of the Mahdi as the Awaited Saviour who is to change the world for the better, has been mentioned in the traditions of the Holy Prophet generally and in the sayings of the Imams particularly. www.geocities.com /Tokyo/Spa/7220/imam-mahdi.html   (21707 words)

Bin Ladin: The Man Who Would Be Mahdi - Middle East Quarterly - Spring 2002 The Mahdi, or "Rightly-guided One," is one of two positive eschatological figures who, according to Islamic teachings, will appear at the end of time—Prophet Jesus being the other. The first step in dealing with any self-proclaimed Mahdi would be for the United States and its Muslim allies to rely on Muslim scholars, preferably practicing Muslims themselves, to denigrate Mahdist claims, by portraying Mahdism as a kind of superstition, and by pointing out incompatibilities between the Mahdist claimant and the hadiths. The basic lesson of both episodes is this: to defeat a Mahdist uprising, it is necessary to generate counter-Mahdist propaganda, alongside the necessary military measures to contain and quash that uprising. www.meforum.org /article/159   (3252 words)

Muhammad al Mahdi (868- ?) Muhammad al Mahdi (the guided) is the 12th and last Imam of the Twelver Shi'i, and is also known as Muhammad al Muntazar (the awaited).

In brief, the Twelver Shi'i believe that he was born to a Byzantine slave named Narjis Khatun, and that his birth was kept quiet by his father, the Eleventh Imam, Hassan al Askari, because of the intense persecution of the Shi'is at that time. www.lexicorient.com /e.o/12thimam.htm   (670 words)

The estimate of 18,000 fighters was based on intelligence estimates that al Qaeda trained at least 20,000 fighters in its training camps in Afghanistan before the United States and its allies ousted the Taliban regime.

Description of Imam Al-Mahdi Imam Mahdi will resume his return journey to Syria with greater ease and comfort once he learns that Dajjaal is not yet loose.

SA4: Mahdi Al-Qaddal may represent many Sudanese in attributing to the Mahdi a manifold and very positive legacy: he sees the Mahdi as a symbol against foreign oppression and a symbol for national liberation, who unified the tribes of the northern Sudan under the aegis of a shared Islamic heritage. Richard A. Bermann, The Mahdi of Allah: The Story of the Dervish Mohammed Ahmed, Introduction by Winston Churchill, New York: The Macmillan Co., 1932. He concludes his study with an analysis of the Mahdi's political, economic, and social program: he deals with such topics as Mahdist policy towards the Sufi orders, the structure of the Bayt al-mal, rulings on marriage, and so forth. www.hf.uib.no /smi/sa/4mahdi.html   (1377 words)

Father Jake Stops the World Turbari is known for publicly stating his goal to "Arabize Africa." Sadeq Al Mahdi, who is now head of opposition Umma Party, is thought by some to be more supportive of the political ideas of his brother-in-law than in the religious ideals of the Mahdists. Previously, all I knew of the Mahdi (the guided one) was that he was a messianic figure within some of the traditions of Islam. This may be because of the claim among some Shiite that the Mahdi will avenge the injustices of the Sunni upon Husayn and his followers at Karbala. frjakestopstheworld.blogspot.com /2004/08/mahdi.html   (893 words)
