[MahdiUniteMuslims] Awaiting for Imam (a.s.) or for Symptoms and Signs



Innumerable narrations contain the signs and symbols of the reappearance of Hazrat Wali-e-Asr Imam Mahdi (a.s.) Janab Sheikh Sadooq and Allamah Majlisi (May Allah Shower His blessing on them) the highly acclaimed Shia scholars have described these narrations among the signs and symbols of the re-appearance of Imam (a.s.) Here we will discuss them wholly from literary point of view.

1. Importance of signs and symbols of re-appearance of Imam (a.s.):

Since long all the Muslims in general and the Shias in particular are looking forward for the re­appearance of Imam Mahdi (a.s.). It is undoubtedly an established fact like the Doomsday for which no fixed time or period is sounded. Only Allah knows, we know not. We have only to focus our attention on the indications assigned for it. To investigate, to find out and to distinguish between these signals and tokens for the reappearance of Imam (a.s.) is of immense importance. We can assume on the basis of these indications (not for certain) that the time and period is not far away. Due to this more emphasis is given on these signs from the beginning itself.

2. There are two types of indications and signs:

The signals given by Ahle Bait (a.s.) are not of one type. Some of the signs told by the descendants of the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.a) are unchangeable while some of them are inconstant. Imam Jafar Sadiq (a.s.) has said that five signs before the re-appearance of Hazrat Qaim (a.s.) would appear:

(i) The appearance of Yemani,

(ii) Revolt of Sufyani,

(iii) Mysterious voice,

(iv) Murder of a pious man between Safah and Marwa,

(v) Sinking of Sufyani's army between Mecca and Medina at a place known as Baiza.
