Monitoring Possible Manifestations of the Imam Mahdi in the Mideast

Copyright 11.13.2010 By CK Hunter

The contents of this post are not for the spiritually faint of heart.

I won’t take much time here to detail who and what the Imam Mahdi is, as it is covered elsewhere on this blog. To American Christians, please reference the term “Son of Perdition” or “Man of Sin“. I am posting several videos that I have known about for some time. It seems appropriate to post these now, so that other Christians can help keep the watch. The watchcare of the Holy Spirit will be with Christian readers. readers should also see http://mahdiwatch.org and follow Tim’s research.

Below is the relevant excerpt from his blog where the auric field of the possible manifestation of the Imam Mahdo is discussed. Compare the descriptions to the videos posted at the end. Feel free to share this post with other Christians who should be informed of the research.

al-Mahdi is “the rightly-guided one” who, according to Islamic Hadiths (traditions), will come before the end of time to make the entire world Muslim.  Over the last 1400 years numerous claimants to the mantle of the Mahdi have arisen in both Shi`i and Sunni circles.  Modern belief in the coming of the Mahdi has manifested most famously in the 1979 al-`Utaybi uprising of Sa`udi Arabia, and most recently in the ongoing Mahdist movements (some violent) in Iraq, as well as in the frequently-expressed public prayers of Iranian President Ahmadinezhad bidding the Mahdi to return and, in the larger Sunni Islamic world, by claims that Usamah bin Ladin might be the Mahdi.  This site will track such Mahdi-related movements, aspirations, propaganda and beliefs in both Sunni and Shi`i milieus, as well as other  Muslim eschatological yearnings. For a primer on Mahdism, see my 2005 article, “What’s Worse than Violent Jihadists?,” at the History News Network: http://hnn.us/articles/13146.html ; for more in-depth info, see the links here to my other writings, including my book on Mahdism.

Tuesday, October 12, 2010 The Quasi-Mahdi from Kashmir One of the commentators  at the  Islamic online think-tank Grande Strategy claims to have seen the Mahdi, or at least a Mahdi “prototype,” in his recent post “To the Unknown Mujahid, May We Never Forget You.”   This near-Mahdi experience was alleged to have happened back in 2001, right after the U.S. invasion of Taliban-ruled Afghanistan.  The commentator was in the Faisal Masjid (presumably the huge Faisal Mosque in Islamabad, Pakistan) “doing special war prayers for the Taliban in Afghanistan when “at one point, a CIA operative showed up, pretending to be Italian” (and who must have been at least a station chief, if not the CIA director himself, because “one day, we did not have those prayers and the next day we found out that it was because the CIA requested that we don’t pray against them.”)  However, he and his brethren soon defied the CIA directive and returned to war prayers (in a religion of peace?);  furthermore, between sessions of invoking Allah’s wrath upon the infidel Americans, they soon noticed something striking about the chap teaching Arabic classes in the mosque: This particular class was being taught by a man, the like of whom I had never seen before, nor since have ever seen again. When you reach a certain level of spiritual enlightenment…sometimes you can “see” or “feel”… the “noor” or “aura” or “spiritual light” of another… This man did not have a glow – it was like a 1000 watt halogen lamp…. I checked myself by discretely asking a few other brothers… and they too confirmed. [H]e was tall, bearded wore a military camo jacket and in all his manners was as if he had walked out of the 1st century Hijri. He spoke English well enough that you could tell he was well-educated and belonged to a noble family. He was from Kashmir…. Some close relatives of his were also senior officers in the Pakistan Army. He was obviously a mujahid, although… one that was fighting against India and in Kashmir and had nothing to do with the Afghanistan war…. Your average jihadi does not have this noor. Some even have a black aura, i.e. they are doing something very wrong. This man was special in a very real way but when you try to describe why, you are found wanting. I knew his name then, but… I can’t remember it now…. I later found out that he was taken by the Americans…. I have no idea… if he is dead in a ditch or in Guantanamo bay or some place worse. I would like to put this in the record that if we ever manage to establish an Islamic state insh’Allah, it should be a top priority to have this man released insh’Allah….Why? Because I believe…that if he is not the Mahdi himself or one of his men, at the least he is the precursor to the kind of men that would make up the army of the Mahdi. Or for those who do not believe in the Mahdi, he is the category of men that can save us from our present circumstances. A prototype to our success….  Disclaimer: I don’t want to claim that he is the Mahdi. As to the reasons for this posting, the anonymous Grande Strategist says this is “information that could be useful for the Muslim world” which could “be lost forever if something happens to me”—although  “not intending this as a farewell address, I fully intend to live long…and see the tables turn [sic]….”  Observations: 1) “Grande Strategy” appears to be a Pakistani, and most likely Sunni, forum (although it is registered in Bellevue, Washington).   Once again, the lingering conventional wisdom (both scholarly and popular) that only Twelver Shi`is believe in a coming Mahdi is demonstrated to be wrong. 4) The Mahdist “glow” or “aura” attributed to this unknown Mahdist mujahid sounds like that claimed by Mahmud Ahmadinejad in his initial U.N. speech in 2005.  Sunni hadiths about the Mahdi do not predict such a phenomenon—but representations of the Shi`i imams regularly portray them thusly.  And, interestingly enough, this puts the allegations that Ahmadinejad may think that he is the Mahdi in a whole new light. 5) One has to wonder just how powerful the Islamic deity is if his “rightly-guided one”—or even an epigone thereof—can be taken prisoner by an infidel Christian power.  Again,  the thesis that the U.S. invaded Iraq to gainsay  the Mahdi’s coming-out party has been advanced before, by both Ahmadinejad and Muqtada al-Sadr.  But does it not occur to these chaps that such a claim simply make Allah look impotent? On the other hand, perhaps the Marines at Gitmo have been briefed that the Mahdi is under their care; this might at least explain why American military guards, most of whom are Christian, have been ordered to “revere” the Qur’an there. 6) This Grande Strategist wants to bring back the caliphate (as he, or someone on that site, has advocated at length previously)—and thinks this quasi-mahdi may be just the chap to head it up, or at least to help build it. 7) The author carefully avoids a categorical claim that he saw the Mahdi in Islamabad—but he comes very, very close to doing so.  And his willingness to do so now, some eight years later, another bit in the growing pile of evidence that even educated, Sunni Muslims have convinced themselves that the plight of the ummah is so dire that only the Mahdi can save it.  This will become an increasingly problematic factor in global geopolitics as the 21st century advances, especially as 2076 AD (1500 AH) appoaches, since Mahdist expectations increase at the turn of every Islamic century. 12:03 pm edt 3) A Kashmiri Mahdi or mujaddid (“renewer” of Islam) might be problematic, because several hadiths state that the Mahdi must be an Arab, like Islam’s founder, Muhammad.  (This was one of my criticisms of the otherwise-entertaining fiction book from 1999 by Margo Dockendorf, The Mahdi: A Millennium Thriller—she has the Mahdi coming from India.)2)  The purveyors of this site appear to be educated, articulate chaps—so the prejudic e (again, both scholarly and popular) that only ignorant fellahin (“peasants”) believe in such an eschatological figure is demonstrably false.

Are you also following the media blitz of pronouncements regarding “Maitreya” the awaited World Teacher, whoom some have wondered may be the Imam Mahdi? I contribute to a separate blog which tries to keep up with those developments – I think you located my post there, at:

I’d like for you to watch a video that I have known about for about a year. I get a deeply sickening feeling each time I watch it, so I won’t even watch it anymore. But your “halogen bulb” auric field description of the mysterious prayer guide from your front page prodded me that you need to see this video.

Next: had it occurred to you that the military men who took the tall teacher away were, in fact, his security fleet, and not his captors?

 

Maitreya is very tall, and has been seen wearing a military camoflage coat and was seen in 2005 being escorted in transport sitting in a military jeep – a US military jeep.This actually took place on American soil, although he actually lives in London. See http://share-international.org

 

Let me put it to you this way: suppose one were to assume that the US military is deeply corrupt, has long been usurped and directed by Godless men from the global crime cabal, who routinely employ the US military to implement their nefarious plans. It is the absolute end game as far as these folks are concerned, that globalism under an eco-fascist UN banner will supplant nationalism, as one by one, the secret “controlled demolitions” of failing and floundering national economies collapse in these next ten years.

 

Understanding the above what more convenient alliance could occur than for the US military to covertly aid and assist the incarnate Imam, [Son of Perdition] while appearing otherwise to fight against and oppose his rise in the mideast?

 

I never used to have to think this way until more than 15 years of research convinced me that our military men here in America have been up to no good for a very long time. I actually think now that the USA industrial-military complex secretly rules the US, and they merely allow the coming and going of variously clueless Presidents, most of whom are manchurians, as administrations rise and fall. It does not matter one whit whether the DNC or GOP take the White House – it’s the US military and the forces controlling them, that run America.

 

This having been said, there could be no more cunning strategic alliance than for the US military to act as secret “handlers” of the incarnate World Teacher – or Imam Mahdi, a power-match made in hell.

 

Had you ever discussed or heard this theory anywhere else? Your thoughts at your leisure.
