messenger to bring a verse without the will of Allah. For every age there are some rules prescribed. In addition to all this the Prophet (s.a.w) narrated; Narrated Anas bin Malik (r.a): A group of three men came to the houses of the wives of the Prophet asking how the Prophet worshiped (Allah), and when they were informed about that, they considered their worship insufficient and said, "Where are we from the Prophet as his past and future sins have been forgiven." Then one of them said, "I will offer the prayer throughout the night forever." The other said, "I will fast throughout the year and will not break my fast." The third said, "I will keep away from the women and will not marry forever." Allah's Apostle came to them and said, "Are you the same people who said so-and-so? By Allah, I am more submissive to Allah and more afraid of Him than you; yet I fast and break my fast, I do sleep and I also marry women. So he who does not follow my tradition in religion, is not from me (not one of my followers)." [Bukhari] So what is wrong with Imam AlMahdi (a.s) getting married if Allah (s.w.t) has ordered Muslims to get married and the Prophet (s.a.w) has stated that “he who does not follow my tradition in religion, is not from me (not one of my followers)." And there is no person on this earth who follows Allah s.w.t and his progeny like Imam Al-Mahdi (a.s), so after that would not it seem weirder if he was not married?
