Signs of reappearance of Imam al-Mahdi (a)

Another salient societal sign is the emergence of the “Sufyani,” a tyrannical figure who will arise in the Arabian Peninsula, embodying oppression and chaos. His actions are prophesied to incite widespread conflict, ultimately driving the global community to seek a unifying savior. This sign accentuates the need for critical engagement with historical and contemporary political realities, urging the faithful to develop political awareness and activism, ensuring alignment with divine justice.

Natural Signs

Nature, too, is said to reflect the cosmic significance of the Mahdi’s return. Various narrations cite unusual phenomena in the environment, such as earthquakes, floods, and climactic disturbances. These natural disruptions serve as metaphors for the tumultuous moral and social landscape, embodying the urgent need for reform. Such phenomena remind believers of the interconnectedness of the created order and the divine purpose, motivating adherents to reflect on human actions and their consequences on the environment.
