"The Mahdi will be among my nation. If he lives for a
short
period, it will be seven, and if he lives for a long period, it
will
be nine, during which my nation will enjoy a time of ease such
as it
has never enjoyed. The land will bring forth its yield and will
not
hold back anything, and wealth at that time will be piled up. A
man
will stand up and say: 'O Mahdi, give me!' He will say: 'Take.'"
Sunan Ibn Majah Book 36, Hadith 158
← Previous Hadith
"While we were with the
Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), some youngsters from Banu Hashim came
along.
When the Prophet (ﷺ) saw them, his eyes filled with tears
and his
color changed. I said: 'We still see something in your face
that we
do not like (to see).' He said: 'We are members of a
Household for
whom Allah has chosen the Hereafter over this world.
The people of my
Household will face calamity, expulsion and exile
after I am gone,
until some people will come from the east carrying
black banners. They
will ask for something good but will not be given
it. Then they will
fight and will be victorious, then they will be
given what they
wanted, but they will not accept it and will give
leadership to a man
from my family. Then they will fill it with
justice just as it was
filled with injustice. Whoever among you lives
to see that, let him go
to them even if he has to crawl over snow.'"

"Three will fight one another for your treasure, each one of
them the
son of a caliph, but none of them will gain it. Then the
black banners
will come from the east, and they will kill you in an
unprecedented
manner." Then he mentioned something that I do not
remember, then he
said: "When you see them, then pledge your
allegiance to them even if
you have to crawl over the snow, for that
is the caliph of Allah,
Mahdi."
