AN IMAGE SHAPED LIKE A HAND WILL APPEAR IN SPACE, AND THIS IS A PORTENT OF THE COMING OF HAZRAT MAHDI (AS)
... Asma bint Umays says: THE PORTENT OF THAT DAY [THE COMING OF HAZRAT MAHDI (AS)] IS A HAND EXTENDING FROM THE SKY AND PEOPLE TURNING TO LOOK AT IT.
Hadith Collected by Jalaluddin As-Suyuti, Portents of the Mahdi of the End Times, Ali Ibn Hasamaddin Al Muttaki, p. 69
... AT THAT TIME [OF THE APPEARANCE OF HAZRAT MAHDI (AS)] A HAND WILL BE SEEN REVEALING ITSELF FROM THE SKY...
Hadith Collected by Jalaluddin As-Suyuti, Portents of the Mahdi of the End Times, Ali Ibn Hasamaddin Al Muttaki, p. 51
Conflict and disputes will persist until A HAND APPEARS FROM THE SKY and a voice cries “The Mahdi is your amir.” THE SIGN OF THAT DAY: A HAND WILL EXTEND FROM THE SKY and people will look at and see it.
Ahmad Ibn Hajar al-Makki (Haytami), Portents of the Anticipated Mahdi, Al-Qawl Al-Mukhtasar Fi alamat Al-Mahdi Al-Muntazar, p. 53
These hadith transmitted from our Prophet (saas) speak of a “hand” being seen in the sky, and say that this is a portent of the coming of Hazrat Mahdi (as). It appears that disputes will continue until that time and that Hazrat Mahdi (as) will constantly be a matter of discussion.
A picture of space taken by NASA’s Chandra X-Ray Observatory shows a mass of neutron stars shaped like a hand appearing to close round another star mass. The reference to a hand in the hadith may be suggestive of this image in the indicated meaning, described by NASA as the “hand of God,” giving rise to a celestial phenomenon. (Allah knows the truth.)
The shape of a hand formed by the stellar mass is in complete agreement with the description of its extension as given in the hadith. The photograph taken by NASA shows a hand stretching out somewhere. In addition, the way that people were able to see and observe this celestial phenomenon by means of telescopes thanks to the advanced space and astronomical technology in the time of Hazrat Mahdi (as) is also in complete agreement with the expressions employed in the hadith.
As stated in another hadith, the portents of the coming of Hazrat Mahdi as "… may be expected to take place one after the other like beads on a necklace whose string has snapped” (Abu Huraira (ra), Tirmidhi) and have been taking place one after the other over the last 30 years, and are still going on today. The latest, which happened when the two-tailed comet Lulin came closest to the Earth on 24 February, 2009, also appears to match a hadith narrated by Imam Rabbani: “a double-toothed light shedding horn will appear in the East” This, followed now by a celestial phenomenon in the shape of a hand referred to in the hadith in terms of “a hand extending from the sky,” is all evidence that Hazrat Mahdi (as) has already appeared and begun his work, and that he will soon be recognized by people. (Allah knows the truth.) | |
