 | | After Husein's death at Karbala in 680, Muhammad was defined as "Mahdi". |  | | The figure of Mahdi, and his mission, is not mentioned in the Koran, and there are practically nothing to be found among the reliable hadiths on him either. |  | | When "Mahdi" was used for the Abbasid Caliph an-Nasir, he was defined as the final Mahdi, and there were no need to expect any future Mahdis. |

| | [One Ummah] - al-Imam al-Mahdi |
 | | The Imami school of thought is unanimous in their belief that the Mahdi has already been born, lives among us, but is not known to the people. |  | | The majority of Muslims, however, accept the traditions of the Mahdi as legitimate since they are found within many of the hadith books which are considered authentic (or partially authentic) by the majority of the schools of thought within Islam. |  | | Over this period, there were several people falsely claiming to be the Mahdi or whose followers elevated them to this status (against their own will). |

| | The Awaited Saviour: Imam al-Mahdi |
 | | The Mahdi is not only an embodiment of the Islamic belief but he is also the symbol of an aspiration cherished by mankind of its divergent religious doctrines. |  | | The answer to this question is that this concept of the Mahdi as the Awaited Saviour who is to change the world for the better, has been mentioned in the traditions of the Holy Prophet generally and in the sayings of the Imams particularly. |  | | The appearance of the Mahdi is Allah's favour for the oppressed and the weak and is a means of their coming to power and gaining the promised Divine succession in the whole world. |

 | | The Mahdi, or "Rightly-guided One," is one of two positive eschatological figures who, according to Islamic teachings, will appear at the end of timeProphet Jesus being the other. |  | | The first step in dealing with any self-proclaimed Mahdi would be for the United States and its Muslim allies to rely on Muslim scholars, preferably practicing Muslims themselves, to denigrate Mahdist claims, by portraying Mahdism as a kind of superstition, and by pointing out incompatibilities between the Mahdist claimant and the hadiths. |  | | The basic lesson of both episodes is this: to defeat a Mahdist uprising, it is necessary to generate counter-Mahdist propaganda, alongside the necessary military measures to contain and quash that uprising. |

 | | Al-Qaddal may represent many Sudanese in attributing to the Mahdi a manifold and very positive legacy: he sees the Mahdi as a symbol against foreign oppression and a symbol for national liberation, who unified the tribes of the northern Sudan under the aegis of a shared Islamic heritage. |  | | The last two-thirds of the book are devoted to Muhammad Ahmad after he had declared his calling as the Mahdi. |  | | Al-Qaddal repeatedly alludes to but does not truly confront the nature of Muhammad Ahmad the Sufi versus Muhammad Ahmad the Mahdi, the continuities and the breaks between the two. |

His position is so exalted that many people have tried to take his place they have taken the advantage of his occultation and have made many people believe that they are the real Imam the present Hujjat of God in this world. |  | | But the fact, which cannot be ignored, is that, however tall the proclamation made by them might be and whatever ways might be adopted by them these pseudo Mahdis can never prove themselves as the proclaimed one. |  | | With their false proclamation and devious means they have deviated many innocent Muslims from their true path and lead them ashtray into a new religion formed by them. |

He then set out with a military force to rid the Sudan region in Central Africa of Egyptian and British domination and to turn his country into an Islamic state. |  | | History of the Shrine of Imam Musa al-Kadhim and Imam Muhammad al-Jawd |
