the Prophesied Iman Mahdi
-
Osama bin Laden is the Mahdi and Taliban are the black flags of Khurasan.
Well planned conspiracy by the Illuminati and classic form of rewriting history.

it's not "Qurani" at all, the only backup for the advent of imam mahdi is from hadiths.
see, this is what i see as a problem in many major belief systems.
the jews are waiting for their version of the "messiah" to come and save them.
the christians are waiting for the "second coming of christ" to come and save them.
the muslims are waiting for "the second coming of christ" and "imam mahdi" to come and save them.
and i'd imagine that several other belief systems have some sort of saviour ideology as well, although those i am not as familiar with.
but here's my point
read the Quran. it does not tell you to wait until someone comes to save you. it tells you to take the steps to save yourself now.
guess i'll have to keep repeating myself til somebody pays attention.
the mahdi stories come from the story of tulat in the quran when a prophet answered the jews as to who will be there king. this is the base of the story but many people have added many other things to it. the lineage of the prophet to the mahdi is added because of the prophets were all of one bloodline in accord with ALLAH's promise to Abraham.
each of the monotheist religions have similar stoires because of this reason. remember we must look at the end of our lives as will as the end of all life as two different events independent of each other, the world will continue to end as it loses balance. this is why the quran is the oft-repeated book it will continue to repeat in the stories of our lives individually and as a whole.put it this way when you die your world ends....correct?
