IDEALISM THE PHILOSOPHY OF THE MATRIX AND THE TRUE NATURE OF MATTER

http://en.harunyahya.tv/videoDetail/Lang/4/Product/8904/IDEALISM_THE_PHILOSOPHY_OF_THE_MATRIX_AND_THE_TRUE_NATURE_OF_MATTER<O></O>

Many of the movies that have hit the big screen over the last few years share a common subject as part of their storyline. These films question reality—or the real world, as we know it—pointing out that artificially created dream worlds or worlds produced by simulations can actually be quite realistic.
These films also deal with suggestions, thus far represented only as food for thought at scientific gatherings, of how these questions could affect our lives.<O></O>
What is real? How do you define "real"? If you're talking about your senses—what you feel, taste, smell, or see—then all you're talking about are electrical signals interpreted by your brain.<O></O>
Doubtless one of the foremost reasons why these films, based on scientific explanations, captivate the attention of millions is the fact that people now question the reliability of the external world's assumptions and preconditions.<O></O>

2007… The Atlas of Creation permitted the people of Europe to see the facts for the first time because the Atlas laid out a reality – the fossil record, which annihilated all the claims of the theory of evolution. Not only is this giant book, consisting of the highest quality photographic illustrations, convincing and impressive in appearance, it also has attracted considerable attention because of the proofs of Allah's sublime creation and the scientific information refuting the theory of evolution that it contains.<O></O>
2008 … Reports of the collapse of Darwinism are pouring in from all over the world! Public opinion polls in 34 major countries show that belief in Creation is snowballing and that the theory of evolution is on its last legs! In addition, many scientists are turning towards Allah and saying that all of life was created. The numbers of the proponents of evolution are declining day by day. The people of Europe are turning to Allah in waves.<O></O>

This film, produced by the Science Research Foundation, a Harun Yahya institution, presents the Muslim response to and denunciation of terrorism. Beginning with the event of September 11, the film explains that all kinds of violence against civilians are crimes against humanity and grave sins in religious terms. It is also stressed that terrorism is an inherent feature of secular ideologies like communism, fascism and racism. In contrast, all theistic religions - Islam, Christianity and Judaism - are opposed to terrorism and their ultimate goal is to bring peace and brotherhood to mankind.

In this film we shall be examining the true origin of Freemasonry, in other words the Knights Templars, which had been kept secret for hundreds of years. To date, a great deal has been said about the Knights Templars, and a great many books written about their activities. Who were these Templars? Where did they come from? What were their aims? How did they turn into Freemasonry? How did they manage to continue their activities, carried out so silently and secretly, right up to the present day? We need to seek the answers to all these questions in the pages of history.<o></o>

Fossil – Museum


Fossil – Museum

http://www.fossil-museum.com/

Darwinism, which maintains that life and the entire universe are the work of blind chance, is the main foundation for all the damaging trends that have inflicted terrible disasters on mankind in our age. The purpose of this site is to reveal the scientific evidence that demolishes Darwinism, which is being attempted to be kept alive out of ideological concerns despite having been scientifically utterly invalidated, and to warn people against this theory’s sly indoctrination.

 

Confessions of the Evolutionists



Confessions of the Evolutionists

http://www.confessionsofevolutionists.com/

Ever since it was first put forward, certain materialist circles have attempted to portray the theory of evolution as scientific fact. In fact, however, the theory, which claims that life emerged as the result of chance processes, has been utterly disproved by various branches of science. Over the 150 or so years separating Charles Darwin, the founder of the theory, and the present day, such scientific fields as paleontology, biochemistry, genetics and anatomy have demolished the theory’s assumptions. The more the details of nature have been revealed, the more extraordinary characteristics have been discovered that can never be explained in terms of chance. For all these reasons, in the words of the famous molecular biologist Professor Michael Behe, evolution is “A theory in crisis.” From time to time, this crisis leads scientists who support the theory to make a number of confessions. They reject the theory not despite their materialist preconceptions, but because they realize that it flies in the face of scientific findings. In this book you will find statements made by these evolutionist scientists regarding the theory they believe in. Hundreds of evolutionists, from Charles Darwin to eminent present-day supporters of his theory, such as Richard Dawkins, Stephen Jay Gould and Richard Leakey, have admitted that it is groundless, incorrect, and even ridiculous. If you want to see why not even Darwinism’s most determined proponents believe in it, you must see this site.

True Facts About The Fictitious ‘Missing Link’ Ida

STOP LYING!
Darwinists are wretched out of desperation!

​

They attempted to show the complete lemur fossil named Ida--which is an extinct species--as a transitional form.

And about 90 percent of the animal and plant species on earth became extinct.[1] There are 99 species of lemurs. And 16 species of lemurs became extinct and many other species are now being determined as extinct. And many more species have been lost. All the extinct species are all perfect living forms with no sign of the so-called transitional forms.

Ida, is one the extinct species of lemur. It is a perfect developed lemur and it shows no sign of intermediary form. It is an evidence of creation.

THE TRUE FACTS ABOUT THE FICTITIOUS 'MISSING LINK' IDA THAT DARWINISTS NEVER MENTION >>>

Nobody Attaches Any More Credence to Evolutionists’ False Evidence!

* Darwinism is now finished. Darwinists and materialists have been belittled in the public eye. They must now renounce their meaningless pride and obstinacy and free themselves from the spell of the last 150 years. Life did not come into being by chance, and living things are not descended from one another. Almighty Allah (God) created the universe and everything, living and inanimate, within it.

* Evolutionists who invent lie after lie and keep raising false evidence in order to keep the theory of evolution alive are being humiliated in the public eye. The latest evolutionist false evidence is the fossil dinosaur known as Tyrannosaurus, depicted as the “ancestor of birds.” The results of a study conducted on proteins obtained from this fossil, discovered in the state of Montana in the USA in 2003, were again made public in a sensational manner. Evolutionists compared the proteins they obtained from this fossil with those of 21 modern species of bird and came up with the lie that this creature was directly related to the chicken and the ostrich.

* The fact is, however, that the idea that birds evolved from dinosaurs is an invention opposed by leading ornithologists who produce clear evidence to back their case. Similarities among living things represent no evidence for the theory of evolution. It is of course utterly normal for there to be molecular similarities among living things, because they are made up of the same molecules, use the same water and atmosphere and consume nutrients made of the same molecules. It is perfectly natural for their metabolisms and therefore their genetic structures to resemble one another.

* If attempts are made to prove evolution on the basis of molecular comparisons, the picture that emerges leaves evolution in a totally helpless position. When evolutionists’ illusory family trees are prepared in the light of molecular comparisons, all previous family trees have to be thrown away and it even has to be maintained that there is an evolutionary link between human beings and the potato.

* Based on findings from the field of microbiology, the renowned biochemist Prof. Michael Denton makes this comment:
“Each class at a molecular level is unique, isolated and unlinked by intermediates. Thus, molecules, like fossils, have failed to provide the elusive intermediates so long sought by evolutionary biology… At a molecular level, no organism is "ancestral" or "primitive" or "advanced" compared with its relatives…” (Evolution: A Theory in Crisis, London: Burnett Books, pp. 290-91)


* The oldest-known bird fossil is Archaeopteryx, which dates back some 150 million years. With its perfect flight muscles and feathers ideally suited to flight, this animal was a flying bird. The dinosaur fossil in the latest study seeking to establish a relation with birds is only 68 million years old. This means that birds were in existence some 80 million years before this dinosaur. For that reason, the idea that there is an evolutionary link to this dinosaur, and that birds “evolved from dinosaurs” is a fantasy.

* These efforts are all in vain. Modern science has revealed that the extraordinary complexity in the origin of life cannot be explained from a materialist perspective. Reports of this kind on the press are just hopeless and misleading tactics on the part of various circles holding a materialist world view. Living things were created through Almighty Allah commanding them to “Be!” not through a chance process of evolution.


The newly announced Tyrannosaurus fossil, which is claimed to have a familial link to birds, is 68 million years old. Yet the fossil known as Confuciusornis, shown above and belonging to an extinct species of bird, is fully 120 million years old.

1. Not one single protein can come into being by chance.
Proteins are complex molecules that both represent the building blocks of living cells and also assume various functions within the cell. When the chances of an average protein molecule emerging by chance are calculated, the result is a number consisting of 10 followed by 950 zeros. In practical mathematical terms, such a figure represents “zero probability.”

2. Irreducibly complex organs refute evolution.
Irreducible complexity is a characteristic that invalidates the claim of gradual development that lies at the basis of the theory of evolution. For example, there is irreducible complexity in the eye and in wings. It is impossible for the organelles that combine to make up the eye, such as the tear gland, the retina and iris to form individually by chance. Because sight will only occur when all the components of the eye are all perfectly formed. The same thing applies to the wing.

3. The inconceivable amount of information in DNA repudiates chance.
The information concerning all characteristics, from a person’s physical appearance to the structure of their internal organs is encoded by a special system in their DNA. If we were to try to put the genetic information in DNA down on paper, we would need to create a huge library of 900 volumes of 500 pages each. But this inconceivable quantity of information is contained in those parts of DNA known as “genes.” And it is an absolute fact that DNA cannot emerge by chance.

4. The fossil record points to Creation.
Although some 100 million fossils belonging to 250,000 different species have been unearthed, not even one supports Darwinism. Each one of the fossils discovered, belongs to fully formed and flawless organisms. Were evolutionists’ claims true, a large part out of so many fossils should belong to “intermediate life forms,” though not a single one actually does.

5. Life forms appeared suddenly in the Cambrian Period.
Nearly all the main physical structures in living things (categories such as arthropods, chordates etc.) emerged in the Cambrian Period, some 530 million years ago. While only 1 or 2 of these main categories existed prior to the Cambrian, more than 50 emerged suddenly in different parts of the world during the Cambrian Period. Pre-Cambrian life forms have simpler structures, while those from the Cambrian are incomparably more complex. For example, there is no difference between the structure of the eye of the trilobite, which emerged during this period, and that of eyes today.

6. “Living fossils” are a response to evolutionist myths.
Living fossils are striking proof that, totally demolish the theory of evolution’s claim of “gradual development.” The reason why they are known as “living fossils” is that despite being hundreds of millions of years old, they are identical to specimens living today. There are many specimens of living fossils, from ants to trees and from bats to sharks. This is definitive evidence that no evolution ever took place in the course of natural history.

7. Reptiles are not the ancestors of birds.
Evolutionists are no longer able to point to Archaeopteryx as an intermediate form between reptiles and birds. Examinations of this fossil shown that it is not a transitional form, and that it is an extinct bird with a few different features to those of present-day birds. The presence of a breastbone indicating powerful flight muscles and an asymmetric feather structure identical to that in modern-day birds show that the animal was able to fly to perfection.

8. Fish did not emerge onto dry land.
Evolutionists used to point to the fish known as the Coelacanth as evidence for the myth of a transition from water to dry land. It used to be thought that the Coelacanth represented an intermediate form between fish and amphibians. However, a “living” specimen of a Coelacanth was caught in the Indian Ocean in 1938. More than 200 other specimens have been caught since. Examinations of living Coelacanths revealed that it is a perfectly structured fish and that all the previous conjectures about the fossils was mistaken.

9. Mutations do not form new species.

Mutations are breakages or dislocations occurring as a result of radiation or chemical agents in the DNA molecule in the nucleus of the living cell that carries genetic information. DNA has a highly complex structure. Therefore, any random change in the molecule will be damaging to it. Mutations usually lead to irreparable damage and deformity, and even to death. The people exposed to the disasters at Hiroshima, Nagasaki or Chernobyl are living indications of this. The claim that mutations are an evolutionary mechanism is proof of the dead-end in which the theory of evolution finds itself.

10. Natural selection does not lead to evolution.
Natural selection is an expression of the survival of strong living things best suited to their surroundings. But this does not give rise to any new species. For example, in a herd of zebra under threat from predators, those zebras able to run fast will survive and the herd will eventually come to consist of fast-running individuals. But this process is a limited one and cannot turn the zebra into any other species. Because zebra have their own unique skeletal structure and physiology recorded in their DNA, and the struggle against predators cannot alter that information nor bestow any new genetic information on the zebra.

11. Human beings never evolved, but were created as humans.
It has emerged that the human family tree is a diagram drawn up solely in the light of evolutionists’ imaginations. Evolutionists maintained that human beings emerged gradually in the following line of progression: "Australopithecines > Homo habilis > Homo erectus> Homo sapiens" They sought to give the impression that each one of the life forms in that list was the forerunner of the one after it. But the discovery of these life forms, which evolutionists portray as one another’s ancestors, right beside one another has demolished this family tree. The latest discoveries by paleoanthropologists show that Australopithecines, Homo habilis and Homo erectus existed at the same time in different parts of the world.

12. Evolutionists resort to frauds.
Evolutionists also resort to frauds in order to “prove” their theory. To date, there has been a great deal of such evolutionist fraud as that in embryo drawings and in fossils being hidden away or destroyed. The most striking example is the Piltdown Man fraud.
It was suggested that a skull discovered in 1912 near Piltdown in England belonged to an “ape-man.” This fossil, the skull of which exhibited human features and the jaw those of an orangutan, was displayed in the famous British Museum for 40 years. However, it was finally exposed as a forgery in 1953. The fossil had been produced by evolutionists who combined a human skull and an orangutan jaw and used chemicals to give it an aged appearance.

 

Swineflu Is One Of The Reasons Why Allah Has Made Eating Pork Unlawful


Pork is one of the foods that Allah makes unlawful in the Qur’an. A true Muslim will demonstrate determination in abiding by Allah’s commands and prohibition even if he is unaware of the wisdom behind them. But if Allah so wills He can also show us the wisdom behind the things He has prohibited. The recent rapid rise in cases of swine flu, a lethal disease, is one of the reasons why the eating of pork is unlawful.

Swine flu is a disease caused by the virus “H1N1” and can be passed from person to person through the air. Like the flu virus in human beings, the swine flu virus constantly changes in pigs. Pigs’ respiratory passages contain receptors that are sensitive to viruses such as swine, human and bird flu. For that reason, pigs increase the possibility of new viruses emerging in the event they are transmitted simultaneously. The A/H1N1 virus, a combination of human, swine and bird flu viruses, only appears in the receptors in pigs’ respiratory passages; in other words, pigs serve as hosts for viruses to combine together in. Because human beings have no natural immunity to the virus and since it spreads very fast, the World Health Organization has warned that the disease is about to spread out of control as an epidemic.
One of the most frightening aspects of the disease is that it is the same as the “Spanish Flu” that led to the deaths of more than 50 million people between September 1918 and June 1920. It is the AH1N1 virus that causes the disease in both cases. Spanish flu was also first transmitted to human beings from pigs in America, from where it spread across the world, becoming one of the worst epidemics in history. Therefore, in the event that swine flu cannot be brought under control, there is a danger that it will spread all over the world.

The Hadith Indicate That Pigs Will Be Destroyed in the End Times

Fourteen hundred years ago, our Prophet (saas) indicated that pigs will be destroyed in the End Times:
Hazrat Mahdi (as) will come as a just judge… he will slay the pig and distribute goods and possessions, but because of their abundance nobody will accept them. (Al-Qawl al-Mukhtasar fi Alamat al-Mahdi al- Muntadhar, p. 31)

This hadith suggests that there will have to be a mass slaughter of pigs in the time of Hazrat Mahdi (as). Indeed, states may have to resort to the mass slaughter of pigs in order to prevent the spread of swine flu if it becomes an epidemic threatening the whole world. Egypt has in fact already begun slaughtering pigs in order to protect itself against the disease. The hadith of our Prophet (saas) state that it will be essential to slaughter pigs, the source of swine flu, in the same way the authorities dry up the swamps that constitute the breeding grounds of mosquitoes, which also constantly spread disease.

As has already been stated, pigs’ respiratory passages play the main role in the emergence of this dangerous disease. That is just one of the reasons behind Allah’s prohibiting the consumption of pork. There are many other pieces of wisdom behind Allah’s making the consumption of pork unlawful. Some of these may be set out as follows:

Pork contains high levels of sulfur

Since pork contains high levels of sulfur, when it is eaten a large amount of sulfur is absorbed by the body. Excessive amounts may lead to various diseases, such as joint infections when it accumulates in cartilage, muscle and nerves, calcification and hernia. In the event of regular pork consumption, soft connective tissue from the pig replaces the hard cartilage in the body. As a result, the cartilage becomes unable to bear the weight of the body, which in turn leads to joint deficiencies.

Pork contains excessive amounts of growth hormone

Excessive amounts of growth hormone ingested through pork leads to tissue swelling and deformations. It can lead to sudden and extreme fat accumulation. People who eat pork generally have a higher risk of obesity. It may lead to abnormal growth of the nose, jaw, hand and feet bones. The most dangerous aspect of excessive growth hormone is that is prepares the way for cancer.

Eating pork leads to skin diseases

Substances known as “histamine” and “imtidazole” in pork cause excessive itching. They also prepare the way for infectious skin diseases such as eczema, dermatitis and neurodermatitis. These substances also increase the risk of boils, appendicitis, gall bladder diseases and arterial infections. Doctors therefore advise heart patients to avoid eating pork.

Eating pork spreads trichina

Trichina worms ingested through pork enter the blood stream through the stomach and intestines and spread throughout the body. Trichina worms particularly settle in muscle tissue in the jaw, tongue, neck, throat and chest regions. They lead to paralysis of the chewing, speech and swallowing muscles. They also cause vein obstructions, meningitis and brain infections. Severe cases may even end in death. The most dangerous aspect of the disease is that there is no cure for it. Trichina outbreaks have been observed from time to time in Sweden, Britain and Poland, despite tight veterinary controls.
Pork is very fatty and contains poisonous substances

Pork is very fatty. When ingested, the fat enters the blood stream and leads to hardening of the arteries, raised blood pressure and coronary infarct. In addition, pork contains a toxin called “Sutoxin.” The lymph glands have to work extra hard in order to expel these toxins from the body. This manifests as swelling of the lymph glands, especially in children. If the disease progresses, all the lymph glands swell up, temperature rises and pain begins.

These are just a few aspects of the wisdom behind Allah’s making the eating of pork unlawful. Allah is also showing us the wisdom of this prohibition by creating swine flu in the End Times. For a sincere believer, even not knowing why Allah has prohibited anything, his main responsibility is to maintain the bounds set by Him. But with the epidemic over recent days Allah is telling believers of yet another element of that wisdom.

 

Hazrat Mahdi Will Emerge From İstanbul- Turkey

The hadith of our Prophet (saas) provide a lot of information showing that Hazrat Mahdi (as) will emerge from Istanbul. One hadith states that Hazrat Mahdi (as) will appear from Turkey and will never leave it until the end of his struggle:

THE MAHDI WILL NOT LEAVE RUM, THE TURKS (because Turkey used to be known as region of Rum).

(Tilsimlar Magazine narrated from Ish'afu'r-Ragibin, Bediuzzaman Said Nursi, p. 212)

HAZRAT MAHDI (AS) WILL EMERGE FROM THE FORMER CENTER OF THE CALIPHATE
Hazrat Mahdi (as) and his system represent the central point of the hadith concerning the events of the End Times. Most of the major incidents in the End Times will revolve around Hazrat Mahdi (as). There are various accounts concerning the location of these events, but Bediüzzaman Said Nursi clarifies the issue by saying:

Now, the difference in the narrations about individuals like the Mahdi, and their meaning, is this: those who expounded Hadiths applied the text of the Hadiths to their own interpretations and commentaries. For example, since the centre of power at that time was Damascus or Medina, they imagined the events connected with the Mahdi and Sufyan in places like Basra, Kufa, and Syria, which were in the region of those centers, and expounded them accordingly.”(The Words / Twenty-Fourth Word - Third Branch - p.355)
In another passage Bediuzzaman Said Nursi says on the issue:
Since in early times the centers of the Caliphate were in Iraq, Damascus, and Medina, on their own interpretations, the narrators showed these events as occurring close to the centre of Islamic government, as though it was always going to remain thus, and said Aleppo and Damascus. They added their own details to the succinct predictions of the Hadith.

(The Rays / The Fifth Ray - Second Station - p.107)

Although different cities appear in the hadith, the common feature of the accounts concerning the location of the events of the End Times is that they will take place in the capital of the Caliphate, where the two standards, the sword and robe of our Prophet (saas) are kept. As can be seen from Bediuzzaman's statements, the scholars who narrated the hadith of the End Times spoke of the events of the End Times being based in the centers of the caliphate of their own times. With regard to the place where Hazrat Mahdi (as) will appear from, each scholar has cited places such as Iraq, Damascus, Kufa and Medina as the centers of the caliphate in their own times. That is the reason for the difference in the accounts regarding the location of Hazrat Mahdi’s (as) emergence. Because the knowledge and information possessed by the narrators of these hadith has gradually been added to the accounts (mixed with those of the original transmitters) and thus given them their present form. The capital of the Caliphate has changed several times since the days of our Prophet (saas) – Damascus, Aleppo, Kufa, Mecca and finally Istanbul.
However, the common feature of the accounts regarding the location of the events of the End Times is that they will take place in the center of the Caliphate.
Bediuzzaman also reached that conclusion. The final center of the caliphate was “Istanbul.” The caliphate was officially abolished at the beginning of the last century, and it was never transferred anywhere else after that time. The two standards, sword and robe of our Prophet (saas), together with other holy relics, are kept in Istanbul. In conclusion, Istanbul is the only city to still bear this spiritual title. For that reason, that is where Hazrat Mahdi (as) may be expected to appear from. (Allah knows the truth.)
HAZRAT MAHDI (AS) WILL APPEAR TOGETHER WITH THE HOLY RELICS KEPT IN ISTANBUL
It is narrated from Abdullah b. Surafa that:
Hazrat Mahdi (as) will have an embroidered banner of our Prophet (saas) with him. (Al-Burhan fi Alamat al-Mahdi Akhir al-Zaman, p. 65)
He will appear with the camelhair banner of our Prophet (saas). That banner will have four corners, will be stitchless and black in color. There will be a crescent on it. That banner, never opened since the death of Rasulullah (saas), will be unfurled when Hazrat Mahdi (as) emerges. (Al-Burhan fi Alamat al-Mahdi Akhir al-Zaman, p. 23)
HAZRAT MAHDI (AS) WILL SPIRITUALLY CAPTURE ISTANBUL
It is narrated from Ibn Amr that: Our Prophet (saas) said: O, people! There are six things without which Doomsday will not happen, (the sixth) is the capture of the city.

-He was asked: Which city?
-He replied: Constantinople.
(*) This is the spiritual capture of Constantinople by Hazrat Mahdi (as).

(Muhammad ibn 'Abd ar-Rasul Barzanji, Portents of Doomsday, p. 204 – Ramuz al-Ahadith, p. 296)
Your leader, who distinguishes between truth and error, who does not deceive, who does not steal and who is devoted to his religion [Hazrat Mahdi (as)] will capture Constantinople (Istanbul).

(The Mahdi and the Imam, p. 196)
Even if but a single day remains in this world, Allah will certainly prolong that day so that one from my family [Hazrat Mahdi (as)] can take possession of Mount (or the land of) Daylam and the city of Constantinople (Istanbul).
(Al-Burhan fi Alamat al-Mahdi Akhir al-Zaman, p. 74 / Death-Doomsday-The Hereafter and the Portents of the End Times, p. 440)
Hazrat Mahdi (as) will conquer Constantinople and Mount Daylam.

(Al-Qawl al-Mukhtasar fi Alamat al-Mahdi al- Muntadhar, p. 27)

 

Another Portent Of Hazrat Mahdi (AS) Revealed By Imam Rabbani


ANOTHER PORTENT OF HAZRAT MAHDI (AS) REVEALED BY IMAM RABBANI HAS COME ABOUT: THE APPEARANCE OF A DOUBLE-TAILED COMET RESEMBLING A HORN
You repeatedly ask about A BRIGHT PILLAR BORN FROM THE EAST.

Know that,

According to his Companions, the Messenger of Allah (saas) said:

"When Abbasi Malik arrives at Khorasan, one of the signs of the coming of the promised Mahdi, A DOUBLE-TOOTHED (1) LIGHT SHEDDING (2) HORN (3) WILL APPEAR IN THE EAST."

According to the account, that pillar had two heads.

The first birth of this pillar was at the time of the destruction of the people of Nuh (as). The same thing was born when they cast Ibrahim (as) into the fire. It was born again in the time of Pharaoh and his people.

It was born again at the time of the martyring of the Prophet Yahya (as).

Let whoever sees it seek shelter in Allah from the evil of corruption.

That whiteness emerging from the East was formerly in the shape of a radiant pillar. A curvature then came to it, and it took the form of a horn.

It is probable, therefore:

-it is described as double-headed probably because both sides will be thin and resemble a tooth, and it will have a head at both ends. Indeed, if a blade has a cutting edge on two sides,

-They use the term double-headed.

My brother Sheikh Muhammad Takhir Badahshi came from Confor. He says:

-There are two heads on the upper part of that pillar. They resemble two teeth. There is a short space between them.

This was recognized at the desert.

The same report was also given by another community.

But this birth is not that which will appear at the coming of the Mahdi. That is because his appearance will be at the beginning of the century. Eighteen years have currently gone by since the beginning of the century.

The hadith says this about the portents of Hazrat Mahdi (as):

"A TAILED STAR (COMET) WILL BE BORN IN THE EAST AND SHED ITS LIGHT."

That comet has been born. But is it that one, or another similar one?

-That this star is called a comet, is probably based on the following:

-The course of the constant IS FROM WEST TO EAST (4)...

The situation of this star follows this course. In other words, its head faces east and its tail faces west. The long white part is in its rear. Therefore:

-It is appropriate for it to be described as having a tail.

ITS DAILY PASSAGE, ON THE OTHER HAND, IS FROM EAST TO WEST. (5)

Allah best knows the truth.

Imam Rabbani, Maktubat, Letter 381, p. 1184
The expression “a double-toothed, light-shedding horn will appear,“ described by our Prophet (saas) in the hadith as a portent of the coming of the awaited Hazrat Mahdi (as) in the End Times and described in detail by Imam Rabbani refers to the comet Lulin, which came closest to the Earth on 24 February, 2009. The way that the terms in the hadith completely fit the characteristics of the comet Lulin is a great miracle and glad tidings for believers awaiting the coming of Hazrat Mahdi (as).

(1) ... double-toothed...:
The fact that the tail of the comet Lulin is forked completely matches the term double-toothed in the hadith.

(2) ... light-shedding...:
The term light-shedding in the hadith refers to the brightness of the comet Lulin, which exceeded that of six stars as it approached the Earth.

(3) ... a horn...:
The main distinguishing feature between Lulin and other comets is that as well as the comet having a tail in the rear of its body, it also has a tail in the front. Examination of photographs of Lulin and its two tails immediately put one in mind of a horn.

(4) The course of the constant is from west to east...:
The hadith goes on to say that “The course of the constant is from west to east...“ This refers to the movement of heavenly bodies, which information is in full agreement with the astronomical findings of the 20th century. Indeed, all heavenly bodies travel from WEST to EAST.

(5) Its daily passage, on the other hand, is from east to west. ...:
Here the expression “Its daily passage, on the other hand, ...” indicates that the comet Lulin, as opposed to all other heavenly bodies, travel from east to west.

The fact that this characteristic, seen in no other heavenly body, applies to the comet Lulin and that this was described 1,400 years ago by our Prophet (saas) as a portent of the coming of Hazrat Mahdi (as) is a great miracle.

 

An Image Hand In Space, Portent Of The Coming of Hazrat Mahdi (AS)



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.)
