Publisher's Description: According to Islam, this concept represents a time, near to Doomsday, when - Qur’anic morality will come to prevail all over the world. In the first stage of the end times, mankind will move away from the purpose behind its creation, leading to a terrible spiritual emptiness and moral collapse.

In the wake of great disasters, wars and suffering, mankind will seek the answer to just one question “Where does salvation lie?” At that very moment of despair, God will charge a “spiritual entity” to call mankind out of the chaos and onto the true path: The Mahdi.

This progression in the end times was described in some detail by the Prophet Mohammed (peace be upon him) in the hadeeths 1,400 years ago, and in the works of various Islamic scholars. In our time the portents of the end times are actually coming about, one after the other. This fact announces an important truth to all mankind:

The time of the coming of the Mahdi is here.
