guys, i am sort of back, i know it took soo long from me to get back onto shiachat. but I really needed it, and soo i decided to get offline on whole sociol media including whatsapp etc.. i was only available for some people. i hope you all dont get mad for my really late reply !! i had so many topics into my head but infortunetally i worked smart (not) and forgot to write them into my notes and later on after my burn out i forgot lots of them... i think i will still not be fully available on shiachat but i am trying to bring the topics as promised back to live that is about imam mahdi,pre-advent,qiyamat e sughra/kubra etc.. for now i got this topic into my head, and i think its an important one to discuss it!!! ----------- As we all have start to see it, lots of young people are trying to become religious scholars,to replace the older merjaa's when they will be gone. There are same people who say trough narations that imam mahdi will fight even the shias when he will come. Some say its sahih and some neglect that idea. The ones who belief lots fake sholars will show up before the advent claim that they will get into huge disagreemant until they will say towards the imam the following :"go back to where you came from we dont need youre imamate" this is quit shocking to read. will imam al mahdi will get a hard time also becuase of the soo called shias(scholars) or are these narations corrupted? btw same story goes with sayeds, that lots of them will turn against imam mahdi (aj) what does ahlalbayt say about the return of imam mahdi aj?? there are narrations when in fact say that imam Mahdi aj will have a really hard time before he will establish his government. its even mentioned he will have it twice as hard as how prophet Muhammed (sawa) himself had.. becuase the difference between the two is that our imam will already have muslims against him..while prophet muhammed (sawa) brought islam to the world and not even 1 muslim could get into disagreement with him. ---------- guys, feel free to get back into the topics about imam Mahdi (aj) ,lets make the comment section blow up. may Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَ تَعَالَى) make us amongst his soldiers

I just want to ask a quick question, now there are many protests happening in the United States for Palestine. I usually avoid going to protests even the one for Iraq last year I just stayed home. Do you guys think its best to not go and stay home? what are your thoughts on this?

Many people here on SC accept the official narrative of the main stream on life. They agree with the governments and media. As long as a marja says something, it’s not even questioned regardless of what our intellect says. We have a small minority of brothers and sisters who question the mainstream reports and seek alternative views to broaden their scope of understanding. When alternative views are presented it’s labeled as disinformation or its automatically discarded when someone calls it a conspiracy. Conspiracy literally means a secret plan by a group to do something unlawful or harmful. As a Shia how can the word conspiracy alone make you think it’s nonsense when we all know about Saqifa. They get bashed and ridiculed by other members, even moderators. How can we not even question the main stream view when “main stream islam” has been lying about the Shia for centuries. How can we attack our fellow Shia for having alternative views when alternative views are why Shia Islam has grown so much. Lots of people leave Shia chat because of this, some just stay quiet. I ask all those who are staying quiet to come forward and discuss how we can unite under the banner of preparing for our beloved Imam Al Mahdi. Lets share main stream and alternative views while we discuss ways to really and thoroughly research all matters with an encompassing view. Will Shia chat ever have a mod who doesn’t just accept the mainstream? Both sides of each argument must always be looked at carefully. In his letter to Malik al Ishtar, Imam Ali says ”Then choose to judge among men him who in your sight is the most excellent of subjects, i.e., one who is not beleaguered by (complex) affairs, who is not rendered ill-tempered by the litigants, who does not persist in error, who is not distressed by returning to the truth when he recognizes it, whose soul does not descend to any kind of greed, who is not satisfied with an inferior understanding (of a thing) short of the more thorough, who hesitates most in (acting in the face of) obscurities, who adheres most to arguments, who is the least to become annoyed at the petition of the litigants, who is the most patient (in waiting) for the facts to become clear...” If moderators are allowed to judge the information and remove post this criteria should be followed.

Dajjal’s plan (potentially) unveiled:

LOTS of people are stressing and panicking that the antichrist is closer to us than we tought! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Top Rabbis: Look at the Signs, Messiah is Coming! He’s already at the door, according to leading Israeli Torah scholar. August 3, 2020 | Ryan Jones A+ A- Hadas Parush/Flash90 Israel is about to go to the polls for a third election in less than a year. It’s an unprecedented, and frankly embarrassing situation. But several top rabbis say there’s a silver lining: Such turmoil must herald the coming of the Messiah. Rabbi Shlomo Amar, the former Sephardic Chief Rabbi of Israel, told a gathering earlier this month that the list of significant signs over the past year simply cannot be ignored. Israel seems unable to elect a government; US President Trump, the most powerful leader in the world, has, like King Cyrus, endorsed Jewish sovereignty in the Promised Land; The kings of the world came up to Jerusalem last month to honor the Jewish people. “These are things we never dreamed of!” exclaimed Rabbi Amar. “How can these things be if not as preparation for the coming of the Messiah?” Messiah is at the door Rabbi Amar went on to recount a recent encounter with the rabbi who was his spiritual adviser 51 years earlier at yeshiva. That rabbi is still closely connected with Rabbi Chaim Kanievsky, who attended the same yeshiva and is today considered one of the leading Torah scholars in the ultra-Orthodox Jewish world. According to Amar’s former spiritual adviser, he was just about to leave for a trip abroad recently when Rabbi Kanievsky stopped him, saying, “You are going abroad? You don’t know that the Messiah is standing at the door?” Signs of the times Rabbi Amar went on to say: “All the great rabbis of this generation are saying that the Messiah is about to reveal himself. All the signs the prophets gave, all the signs predicted in the Gemara, the Mishnah, the Midrash, everything is taking place, one by one. All we need is to remain strong for a little bit longer.” He then urged Jews everywhere to commit themselves to Torah observance, in particular keeping the Shabbat. Orthodox Judaism has long taught that Messiah will only come once all Jews are sanctifying the Shabbat. It is notable how closely Rabbi Amar’s exhortation echoes that of Yeshua (Jesus): “Stay dressed for action and keep your lamps burning, and be like men who are waiting for their master to come home from the wedding feast, so that they may open the door to him at once when he comes and knocks. …You also must be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.” (Luke 12:35-40) Start praying Just days after Rabbi Amar made those stunning remarks, Rabbi Avner Efghin expressed a similar view in an interview with the religious Israeli news portal Kikar Hashabbat. Efghin is one of the world’s top Kabbalist rabbis, and, according to Kikar Hashabbat, a spiritual leader to a growing number of Orthodox Jews across Europe and the United States. He likewise believes that “what has happened here over the past year is most definitely a sign of [the coming of] Messiah. …It would be advisable [at this time] to study Torah and pray.” scource: https://www.israeltoday.co.il/read/top-rabbis-look-at-the-signs-messiah-is-coming/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We all know that the jews will be the ones who will follow the antichrist because they are the ones who did not belief that the Messiah was born yet. they belief that the messiah will appear soon and they recomend all the other jews to prepare for his apereance! lots of christians are panicking because they know everything about the Antichrist who should return before the real Messiah. On sociolmedia it seems like lots of muslims are restless and some even preparing for the return of the mahdi who will be the ultimate sign before the antichrist arives. BUT some muslims even belief and mention that the Antichrist can appear before the Mahdi which causes lots of muslims to panick because of uncertainties of what really should happen. who is the Antichrist? where will he raise? were will he come from? will he be a jew? will he be a basic human being? when will imam mahdi (aj) appear?what exactly does islam say about the antichrist and what are the signs of it? what are youre toughts and knowledge about it ? commend down below!

Salam guys! So as you can tell with the title I'm directing this question to Sunnis on this website: Do you believe in a Mehdi as we do?? For us Al Mehdi or Al Hujja is the last Imam of the 11 imams after Ali (عليه السلام) he is over 1000 years old and has a group of followers (the 313) whom will cleanse the world of Kuffar and Mushrikeen. He will cure sickness and help those in need. But how does that work for our Sunni brothers? Do they even believe in a Mehdi??

i never understood the meaning of ghaibat some say he has a special dress that makes him completally invisible for the human eye (and het cant be seen by anyone) and there are also saying that he dwells trough the world but isn't getting recognised, I also heard that our imam (عليه السلام) is not only in occulation for the human eye but also for the unmaterialistic- life such as djins.. and what we often forget how about khidr (عليه السلام) i know allah sends khidr when as company to not feel lonely.. but is he himself too in a ghaibat?

Salam Alaikum, For many years I have been praying to the God of Mohamed ((صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم)) to make me a part of the solution to the corruption of the world, which is to be among the forefront of the 313. My personal interpretation of the Quran makes me believe that what we ask Allah for, He will bring. The reason why I asked for this most ambitious task is none other than not finding a reason not to. As they say: "Aim high, aim for the moon! And if you miss, you'll be among the stars." Some people pray for money, success for this thing or that. I pray for these things too, but I pray for worldly things only in context to my goal of specifically being among the best humans (and creatures) that Allah has/had/will ever create. This was never kept a secret, and I often challenge everyone openly to join me in this race towards goodness. So, I've been wondering if there are any other people who have prayed for the same, or plan on praying for that from all their hearts. Thank you,

are there any shia datawebs were you can surf on to search for extensive information which you cant find easily only at google. i only know wikishia please help me out

Establising a network It has been said as long the 313 aren’t collected then the return of imam al Mahdi will also be extended.. trough all the technology we have it’s much more easier to get into a communication with people who live on the other side of the world.. technically we don’t have a reason to not create a network and preparing for his pleasant return. if we would start to create a network than its not really that important to have seen each other in real live... trough social network we can do its actually easier and much more save.. if we Got connected To each other trough socialmedia like;twitter,Instagram,Facebook,tiktok etc... we could easily work together by creating group chats and working together to spread the messegas of ahlalbait!! for example I was downloading TikTok with an intention to post about Shia Islam and spreading it and showing that Shia Islam isn’t a kuffar religion etc... I found out that I was not only one with such idea... i saw how lots of people spreaded Shia Islam in no time.. and people constantly asking who the halal Bayt actually are... so social network makes it so much easier to spread knowledge and get in contact with people from the other side of the world!! no one can be left alone coz everyone can safely join it!! Either anonymously or without Btw I really want to be clear!! Everyone who doesn’t want to join then ignore the post and if you are interest than please let’s help each other to create a huge social network from different countries all over the world..let’s not forget that’s its our future and it can get destroyed if we wouldn’t work together because of the satanical world we start to live in with lots of legalizations of disguising things.. please remember our future and the next ones.. you’re thoughts??

Its disguisting how the world started hating the muslim society (especially shia-islam) at once! for example: we all know in the western culture that someone can be rejected for work on application interview only because his foreign islamic name or even of their appereance like a hijab. Or if we take it more worse like being rejected for a study only with a hijab on!!! -> lately a lot of schools/universities are opening a new law for students to not wear a hijab and if you don't agree then you should get off the school! that means its getting more and more tight for the muslims these days especially women with a hijab on! I will put down below some of the hijab-bans from this year ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1,Macron's anti-Islam remarks trigger far-right policies in Franc French President Emmanuel Macron's recent remarks that target Islam triggered far-right groups in the country to implement anti-Muslim policies, especially against Muslim women who wear headscarves. Macron recently claimed that some Islamic religious practices are "separatist" because they carry the threat of seceding from French institutions and rules. scources:https://www.dailysabah.com/world/europe/macrons-anti-islam-remarks-trigger-far-right-policies-in-france France, Oct. 7, 2020. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2.BRUSSELS Some 1,000 people took the streets in the Belgian capital on Sunday to advocate for the right to wear headscarves at universities. scources:https://www.aa.com.tr/en/europe/belgian-protest-for-headscarf-rights-at-university/1900618 Belgium 05.07.2020 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- countries with hijab ban 1.Kosovo (since 2009) 2.Turkey (gradually lifted) 3.Azerbaijan (since 2010) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- there are multiple hadith saying that the muslims in the end of time will experience a really hard time, since the begin of 2000 the world turned step by step more arrogant towards an inocent religion and is busy accusing the muslims of alots of attacks (9 11-building) which we haven't done.. if you look at the difference of life before 2000 then everyone will say it was unjust BUT never against islam as much as now.. what are youre toughts???

We do hear and sometimes read precisely about 313 companions of Imam (A.S). I tried to find online book regarding 313 companions of IMAM (A.S) in english but unfortunate I didn't find any book. Kindly if someone can share a LINK or PDF Book online regarding 313 companions of IMAM (A.S).

Hi guys, I saw this chat group and it was about Mahdi and number 313. What's the connection? I'm curious because one of the important battles in Babi and Baha'i history was the battle of fort tabarsi, where 313 Babis were fighting against thousands of shahs army, and they won.

A miracle of Imam Mahdi (atf) told by Sayed Ammar Nakshawani

Salaam. Hypothetically, if you had the option of either being one of the 72 of Imam Hussain (as) or one of the 313 of Imam Mahdi (as), which option would you choose and why?

https://discord.gg/yGq5sU guys, there is a discord channel, which has a lot of Sunnis. They have a lot of questions to us, and there are not that many here. Please join in, and help to defend tawheed! HALP

Salam Aleikum. Since our ultimate goal in this life is to establish truth and eradicate injustice, we should all long for the reappearance of our Savior Imam Al-Mahdi ÚÌøá Çááøå ÝÑÌå ÇáÔÑíÝ. But the Imam does not appear unless his truthful 313 companions are ready... What are the significant attributes of these 313 and how could we be a part of them. Are these 313 chosen by Allah or does every one of us have the potential to be among them? If anyone could refer some narrations from the Ahlulbayt(as) concerning this i would be grateful. Jazakallah khair jaz'a.
