Al-Mahdiy
Among the last of the small signs yet to happen is the appearance of our Master Al-Mahdiy. This was mentioned by the prophet in a Hadith that means:
((The day of judgment will occur only after a man from my descendants comes forth. His name is like mine and his father’s name is like my father’s name. He will fill the land with peace and justice as it had been congested with corruption and injustice.))
This hadith has been related by Ibn-Hibban in his book As-Sahih and by Abu-Dawud in his book As-Sunan and by At-Tarmithiy in his book Al-Jami^ and Al-Hakim in his book called Al-Mustadrak,, as it was in turn, related from the companion Abdullah bin Mas^oud, may Allah be pleased with him, as he heard it from the prophet, peace be upon him.
Known as Al-Mahdiy, his full name is Muhammad ibn Abdillah. He will be from the descendants of either Al-Hassan or Al-Hussein, the sons of Fatima, the daughter of the prophet.
Initially , in his mission, Al-Mahdiy will be accompanied by an angel. This angel will call unto the people “Oh people he is the Khalifa of Allah-Al-Mahdiy so follow his path.”
The presence of Al-Mahdiy, as i said, will be the last of the small signs indicating the approach of the Day of Judgment. Following these minor signs, the major indications will prevail. These are ten major occurances which will happen in the following order;
Ad-Dajal will emerge, prophet ^Issa will descent from the second sky, Ya’jouj and Ma’jouj will come forth from their concealed place of residence, the sun will rise from the West, a land animal, known in Arabic as Daabat Al-Ard will emerge, a vast spread of smoke will be followed by three land slides, and the journey of a great fire will originate from ^Adan in Yemen.
