Well, someone has done enough homework to find out that the Mahdi is a "messianic" person, but they still haven't figured out that this means that the Islamicists think this is the End of the World.
It would've been nice if the reporter had explained that "return to save the world" means killing or converting every infidel on the planet, until the entire Earth is under Shar'ia law.

The Mahdi appears to kill
the Dajjal. Guess who that is?
And understand that Mohammed's prophecies in the Hadith guarantee -- in their minds -- that they will be victorious over "the Dajjal."

'The title means "the divinely guided one"'
Is another translation "the Anti-Christ?"

Many Freepers know what the Islamic Mahdi is. So does this black turbaned punk Sadr think he's the Mahdi? He wouldn't be the first.

Gents (and ladies),
I am a college prof whose dissertation was on the Mahdi. Go to www.meforum.org/article/159 for my article in "Middle East Quarterly" from 2002 on the topic!!!!

Time to call in the "Mahd Squad".

The mahdi is believed to be the successor to Muhammad who will return to save the world. Well, if the mahdi doesn't get here soon he will be too late to save the Muslims from extinction.
