The Mahdee and the signs of the (Last) Hour
Question: Who is the Mahdee, and what are the signs of the (Last) Hour?
Response: (He is) a man from the family of the Prophet (sal-Allaahu `alayhe wa sallam), who will appear before the descending of ‘Eesaa (Jesus) the son of Mary (sal-Allaahu `alayhe wa sallam) and he will invite (the ummah) to Islaam. And Allaah will establish the proof by way of him, and many people will be guided by him.
If you want further (information) regarding this, then read what Ibn Katheer has written about him in his book «al-Bidaayah wan-Nihaayah».
And with Allaah lies all success and may Allaah send prayers and salutations upon our Prophet (sal-Allaahu `alayhe wa sallam) and his family and his companions.
