Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, we have a man here with followers who claims that in the year 2006 CE his group will emerge and he will be the caliph of the Muslims, and he bases this on visions and dreams. What is the ruling on this man?

Answer:
Satan is ready for him and those like him; he comes to them with visions, deludes them, and says to them... This is a claim of knowledge of the unseen, which no one knows except Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). This man is either insane and has no mind, or he is misguided, may Allah protect us from that. It is not permissible to claim knowledge of the unseen and that he will be the caliph of the Muslims. This is Satan trying to lure him, may Allah protect us from that. Yes.
