Does Ahmadinejad believe he is the Mahdi?
luc van braekel's weblog ^ | 8/14/06 | luc van braekel

Posted on 09/02/2006 9:44:07 AM PDT by dervish

As you probably already know, Iranian president Mahmood Ahmadinejad has started a weblog in Farsi, English, Arabic and French. This led me to lookup the whois-record of his domain name, ahmadinejad.ir.

There's something strange here. While the first name of the Iranian president is "Mahmoud", the domain registration says "Mahdi". In Islamic eschatology, the Mahdi is the prophesied redeemer of Islam, who will change the world into a perfect Islamic society before the end of times. It is well known that Ahmadinejad is a strong believer in the return of the Mahdi. But isn't this registration a strong indication that he (or his staff) believes that he himself is the Mahdi?

Yes it is driving me there....

The issue is whether the educated Persians let him ruin their chance of stability, global competition and rational secularism with his "pan Shiite sham" schemes in the school of Nasser and his Pan Arab-ism. Best we can do till the EU gets its thumb free is is hope their tribal narcosis will fail again.

Furthermore, only Hadhrat Isa (Jesus) (A.S.) will be able to kill Dajjal (the "anti-Christ").

If Christ is made of matter, is the Anti-Christ made of antimatter?

And if they meet, will it be total annihilation?

Thank you for posting this, very interesting site...and this Mufti A.H. Elias and Mohammad Ali ibn Zubair Ali are islam's recognized authorities on this?

Had no idea, they had a Jesus.[His connecting link was expired or I would have read more about what they say about him.]

Hadhrat Abu Saeed Khudri (R.A.) relates that Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) said, "Al Mahdi will be from my progeny. His forehead will be broad and his nose will be high. He will fill the world with justice and fairness at a time when the world will be filled with oppression. He will rule for seven years." * He will be tall * He will be fair complexioned , etc..... * He will receive Knowledge from Allah.

Very interesting. The descritption describes the anti-christ in many ways...he will rule for seven years will be a charismatic leader that will deceive many.

Does Ahmadinejad believe he is the Mahdi? And if so, does he remember what happened each time in the past (Sudan in the 19th c, Saudi Arabia in the 20th, among others) someone has proclaimed themselves the Mahdi? It's enough to make his head spin.

Literally.

My LAST post here on this .... I've been doing a bit of research ....

Who is the evil Dajjal (the "anti-Christ")?
by Mohammed Ali Ibn Zubair Ali
http://www.islam.tc/prophecies/masdaj.html
< excerpted >

Other Ahadeeth regarding Dajjal inform us that:

He will emerge between Shaam and Iraq, and his emergence will become known when he is in Isfahaan at a place called Yahudea.

The Yahudis (Jews) of Isfahaan will be his main followers.
Apart from having mainly Yahudi followers, he will have a great number of women followers as well.

He will have with him fire and water, but in reality the fire will be cold water while that what appears to be cold water will in reality be a blazing fire.

Those who obey him will enter "his Jannat" while those who disobey him will enter "his Jahannam."

There will be a thick fingernail-like object in his left eye.

The letters "Kaa" "Faa" "Raa" will appear on his forehead and will be deciphered by all Mu'mineen regardless of them being literate or not.

He will have a wheatish complexion.

He will travel at great speeds and his means of conveyance will be a gigantic mule. It is said that he will play beautiful music which will attract the music lovers.

Dajjal will lay claim to prophethood.

He will then lay claim to Divinity.

He will perform unusual feats.

He will travel the entire world.

He will send down rains upon those who believe in him, which in turn will cause good crops to grow, trees to bear fruit and cattle to grow fat.

He will cause drought to those who disbelieve in him, resulting in starvation and hardship for them.

During those trying times the Mu'mineen will satiate their hunger through the recitation of Subhanallah and La'ilaha Ilallahu.

The hidden treasures will spill forth at his command. He will stay on this Earth for a period of forty days; the length of the first day will be one year, the second day will be equal to one month, the third day will be equal to a week and the remaining days will be normal.

He will be unable to enter Makkah because the Malaikah will be guarding the Holy City and nor will he be able to enter Madina because there will be Malaikah guarding each of the seven entrances to Madina; From Madina he will proceed towards Shaam where Imaam Mahdi will be stationed.

Finally Isa (A.S.) will descend from the heavens and pursue him and eventually kill him at present day Lydda (Baad Lud).

from: "Signs of Qiyamah"
by Mohammed Ali Ibn Zubair Ali

I like your "True Story" on your home page. I had to copy it and share it with a friend of mine who is an author who has written a few books on ET's.

Hope you don't mind (asked after the fact).

I propse we throw him down the well head first and see if he crawls out. If he does, he is the Madhi. If not, he was a usurper and unworthy of being around when the Madhi does crawl our of the Qom hole.

Easiest way to clear that up.

"The Yahudis (Jews) of Isfahaan will be his main followers.
Apart from having mainly Yahudi followers, he will have a great number of women followers as well. "

What a suprise, the Jews are involved. All 25,000 of them in a country of 70,000,000. The hatred of Jews in Islam, not Israel but Jews, stems from Mohammed's frustration that the Jews of his time would not buy into him being the prophet. How convenient that recognition of the Mahdi comes from those "stiff necked" hold outs.

He also links to his blog from this site: http://www.zolfaghar.com so he thinks he is also Zolfaghar, the sword of the first Shiite Imam, who will deliver a crushing blow to the infidels.
