the absence of Imam Mahdi (a.s)
during the occultation. Thus it can
not be used to refute the Yamani
character as he is present during
occultation in which Imam Mahdi
(a.s) is alive (and not deceased or
absent during occultation). And
since the Yamani (a.s) says that
Imam Al-Mahdi (a.s) is alive, and is
calling towards the Wilaya/
authority of Imam Al Mahdi (a.s),
then this Hadith does not apply at
all.
--Here is a Hadith about the Yamani,
Sufyani and Khurasani all emerging
in one day, from Imam al Baqir (a.s),
he said: "The emergence of the
Sufyani, Yamani and Khurasani is
in one year, in one month, in one
day, ordered like the order of beads,
some people will follow some of
them and there will be misery on
every face, woe to those who stayed
far away from them, and there is no
banner more guided than the banner
of the Yamani, his banner is the
banner of guidance because he calls/
invites to your Companion/Sahib
(Sahib al Zaman a.s), so if the
Yamani emerges he will make arms
dealing forbidden for the people and
every Muslim, and if the Yamani
emerges then rise up towards him,
indeed his banner is the banner of
guidance, and it is not permitted for
a Muslim to turn away from him,
and whoever does this then he is
from the people of the hellfire,
because he calls/invites to the truth
and to the straight path."
Ghaibatul Nu'mani page 255-256.
Upon first inspection of this Hadith,
it becomes very clear that the
Yamani (a.s) is very important
because he calls/invites to Imam
Mahdi (a.s). Now back to the topic
of emergence of all 3 in one day,
Imam al Baqir (a.s) instructed us: "if
the Yamani emerges then rise up to
him", so now I will ask a question to
those who remember their duties to
the family of the household of the
Prophet (s.a.w), Is it possible that
the entire world has only one day to
recognize the Yamani and save
themselves from hellfire?
Surely the answer to that is no, and
how can the entire world study the
Hadith and Qur'an about how to
distinguish the true claimant,
during one day? Rather, 'emergence
of Yamani, Sufyani and Khurasani
in one day' is ambiguous and can be
interpreted in more than one way. It
can be interpreted that this
'emergence', is an emergence for
war, and that the Yamani, Sufyani
and Khurasani will all come out for
war in one day, and that before this
the Yamani appears and will have
made himself known and called/
invited people to Imam Mahdi (a.s),
which is the call of the Supremacy
of Allah (swt).
Also let us look at this reoccurring
Hadith inside the book GhaibutNu'mani, Imam al-Baqir (a.s) said:
"The owners/possessors of all the
banners before the Qaim's banner
are tyrants."
And here is what Sheikh Nu'mani
says (May Allah (swt) Bless him):
"Information has come to us that
every banner lifted before the Qaim
is inside the hellfire - or its owner is
a tyrant - and the like, yet in this
[Hadith] an exclusion has been
made to the Yamani's banner
because it is in front of the
appearance (of Qaim), and as for
the Yamani, who is he? His
knowledge is to Allah."
So Sheikh Nu'mani (May Allah
(swt) Bless him) recognized the
importance of the Yamani (a.s), but
said his knowledge is with Allah
(swt).
And this is the reality of it, that for
1400 years the people could not put
the puzzle together, and it was done
purposefully by Allah (swt) and the
Ahlulbayt (a.s) so that it will come
only when it is the right time and
the right claimant.
This is a Hadith about a Dajjal (l.a)
from Basra who comes before the
Mahdi (a.s), Imam Ali (a.s) said:
"Thus there are Dajjals from the
children of Fatima (a.s), and a
Dajjal emerges from Basra and he is
not from me and he comes before all
the other Dajjals." Malahim
walFitan, door.36, p.123.
The word "Basra" was translated
from "Dijlat alBasra".
As presented by the video from
brother Mohammad (Zolfigar), the
word "Dijlat" means Tigris, and the
Tigris and Euphrates both merge to
form "Shat al Arab" which is next
to Basra, and this is called a
confluence.
And this is the translation of it
"emerges from Tigris of Basra". And
the reason why Imam Ali (a.s) is
saying this is to indicate a province
or location around this area, and
this fits the description of Meesan, a
province around Dijlat al Basra
(Tigris of Basra). And this is also
made clear from another Hadith by
Imam Ali (a.s): "Then the Rightly
guided and Guiding Mahdi emerges
that takes the banner from the hand
of Jesus son of Mary (a.s), then the
emergence of Dajjal, the Dajjal will
emerge from Meesan of a direction
of Basra." Malahim walFitan, door.
54, page.134.
And one of the reasons that people
disbelieve in Imam Ahmad (a.s) is
because of Haidar Imshatat (l.a).
Reason being he used to be one of
the followers of Imam Ahmad (a.s)
but then opposed Imam Ahmad
