The ruling on one who denies the emergence of the Mahdi or his lineage
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
To Naba'ah, until the Hour, no one has accepted it, some have fabricated it,
The Shaykh:
Yes, this came in the hadith, that in the last instance they say, if Allah wills, and when they come, they find it as they had left it, so they break it.
The questioner:
And the other matter, what is the ruling on one who says that the Mahdi is not from Quraysh, but rather from Qahtan, and what is the ruling on one who denies his emergence?
The Shaykh:
They are all liars. Not the one who says they are not from Quraysh, because he is denying the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) informed that he is from the household of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), and not the one who says he is from Qahtan, and how does he know that he is from Qahtan?
