Malhama al Kubra, Imam Mahdi, Nabi Isa, Dajjal, Sufyani etc. etc.... everything is coming... remain patient... here's some positive news... I did research three months ago on the movement that precedes the Mahdi's arrival and how much loss they suffer and sustain until Al-Qa'im's epic arrival... I'm pessimistic by nature and I was naturally expecting the worst news possible... the pre-Mahdi movement... the resistance force that acts in a precursor role to the Mahdi's army and readies the world for his return or uprising... they keep winning and winning and winning and winning until he arrives... I was absolutely floored and shocked... I was expecting the narrations to say the pre-Mahdi brigades are completely and utterly destroyed by the pre-Dajjal forces... there might be occasional setbacks... but the general theme is steady and nonstop growth and victory after victory 

We here are not winning brother. Let alone winning multiple battles before the arrival of imam. We have just been losing for the last 3 years one war after another. 

Iran is losing this war and when the government collapses they will wipe out what Little remains of resistance in Yemen and Lebanon. 

Sadly even the signs before re-appearance such as rise of Yemani, Korasani looks distant. We are heading towards a century of stalemate

Shaykh Makarem Shirazi (ha) and Shaykh Noori Hamedani (ha) have issued the hukm for jihad to avenge the blood of Rahbar (rh).

@Abu Hassanain Sheikhna can you please shed some light on this?

I 100% agree with you. 

Even in the hadiths and lectures I heard by sheikh Adnan Al Hassani, the situation is going to get so much worse, so much humiliation, and all the enemies of Islam will rejoice for a long time while the oppression and enslavement of true Muslims continues. Gaza is an example of this after being destroyed for many years is now going to enslavement and different kind of oppression.

Now imagine this on a large scale for Iran, Iraq, Lebanon, Yemen, and wherever there are Muslim resistances.

By the end of this most people will leave this path, sadly Allah will still punish them as deserters, even though many of them held steadfast for decades and simply gave up in the end due to no sign of relief.

I would pay more attention to Iran’s immediate neighbors than to the GCC, given that only Turkey, Azerbaijan, and/or Pakistan have the land forces to occupy Iran were the government to collapse. ‘Neutral’ Turkey is acting as a logistical base for U.S. operations vs. Iran, allowing NATO AWACS craft to gather intelligence using Konya Airport. Last July its Azerbaijani client also allowed Israel to use its airspace for strikes on Iranian targets and also provided information. So far there is nothing to suggest it is involved in the current war, but if the U.S. and Co. were smart they would have secured Azerbaijani cooperation beforehand. If the Anglo-Zionists continue to rely solely on their air assets, psychological warfare, and/or economic strangulation, they will fail once more. There is a massive disconnect between Trump’s harping on the ‘Iranian threat’ and his unwillingness to commit substantial ground forces (the only thing that could really make a difference in favor of the U.S. and Israel).

if it’s a regional call, it means that every able-bodied man in Iran is obligated to rise up, join the military and take revenge against the two nations military forces within Iran or the wider region

I hate to say this, but looking realistically at the defense, Iran was able to put up and what they’ve been able to do so far I’ve concluded a couple things we unfortunately are not as powerful as we thought. We were the things Russia and China have been selling us either don’t work that well or we’re not maintain that well. 

Obviously, some war a country has to defend itself, but I worry how much scope for actual defense there is and what the satanic powers under Netanyahu and Trump will do

Any revenge should be laughed to the military and organized, malicious, or people joining those groups within the region people outside of Iran, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, Yemen, the Gulf, whether is an active whether is an active Theatre of war, I would advise against doing anything

If people start doing things in the west Europe, Asia against the embassy against random police in military against political leaders, it’s not really gonna do anything to help Iran and it’s only gonna make things worse for us

In the active theater of war, people should join the right in forbidden wrong with the hand in the non-active theater of war. People should raise their voice, attend protest, talk to their congressman, form, coalition, and vote the satanic people out of power from the midterms.

I know a lot of people want to hear the call for Jihad and not be pleased with what I’m saying but I remember remember and remind everyone when America invaded Iraq in 2003 and overthrow Sudan people are talking similar to his eminence Sayyid Sistani Ra He did not give the order because he said it would cost many people’s lives unnecessarily, and eventually the Americans would leave and he consistently called for the transitional government to turn power over to the Iraqi people in free elections, however Isis rose up and invaded. He gave the call so these type of orders have to be given with wisdom and understanding.

The other thing is when a scholar gives an order you have to be sure that your followers are actually going to obey set order Makarim Shirazi has a huge following here in the states in Canada. I highly doubt most of them are getting on a plane to go participate in this order.

Nuri Hamadani following in the United States is mostly Afghanis and to be honest most of them sympathize with Iran, but they have their own problems back home. They would probably take precedence.

I can’t presume to think for these scholars, but that is my understanding to clarify that rolling in some of the side issues

Yes, this.  

Or for a modern and secular example, Scandinavian countries and the French Resistance against Germany's Nazi occupation.  

I think this is most realistic. Iran is not militarily capable of defeating United States, but they are smart, and capable of making the impending occupation unprofitable, especially since the American soldiers and sailors don't want to be there. 

Never lose hope. Hope is our superpower. 

[Guest Guest123]

I am a diplomatic aide in the Sultanate of Oman's Ministry of Foreign Affairs. My job is logistics. When two countries that cannot speak to each other need to speak to each other, I book the rooms. I prepare the briefing materials. I make sure the water glasses are the right distance apart. You would be surprised how much of diplomacy is water glasses. Too close and it feels informal. Too far and it feels like a tribunal. I have a chart. We had a very good month. Since January, Oman has been mediating indirect talks between the United States and Iran on Iran's nuclear program. The talks were held in Muscat and in Geneva. The Americans would sit in one room. The Iranians would sit in another room. I would walk between them. My Fitbit says I averaged fourteen thousand steps on negotiation days. The hallway between the two rooms at the Royal Opera House conference center is forty-seven meters. I walked it two hundred and twelve times in February. This is good for my cardiovascular health. It was less good for my knees. Both are in the service of peace. By mid-February, we had something. Iran agreed to zero stockpiling of enriched uranium. Not reduced stockpiling. Zero. They agreed to down-blend existing stockpiles to the lowest possible level. They agreed to convert them into irreversible fuel. They agreed to full IAEA verification with potential US inspector access. They agreed, in the Foreign Minister's phrase, to "never, ever" possess nuclear material for a bomb. I have worked in diplomacy for seven years. I have never seen a country agree to this many things this quickly. I made a spreadsheet of the concessions. It had fourteen rows. I color-coded it. Green for confirmed. Yellow for pending. By February 21 the spreadsheet was entirely green. I printed it. It is on my desk in Muscat. It is still green. That phrase took eleven days. "Never, ever." The Iranians initially offered "not seek to." The Americans wanted "will not under any circumstances." We landed on "never, ever" at 2:14 AM on a Tuesday in Muscat. I typed the final version myself. I used Times New Roman because Geneva prefers it. The document was fourteen pages. I was proud of every comma. Here is what they said, in the order they said it. February 24: "We have a once-in-a-generation opportunity." — The Foreign Minister, private briefing to Gulf Cooperation Council ambassadors. I prepared the slide deck. Slide 14 was the implementation timeline. Slide 15 was the signing ceremony logistics. I had reserved the Palais des Nations in Geneva, Room XX. It seats four hundred. We discussed pen brands for the signing. The Iranians preferred Montblanc. The Americans had no preference. I ordered twelve Montblanc Meisterstucks at six hundred and thirty dollars each. They arrive on Tuesday. February 27, 8:30 AM EST: "The deal is within our reach." — The Foreign Minister, CBS Face the Nation. He sat across from Margaret Brennan. He said broad political terms could be agreed "tomorrow" with ninety days for technical implementation in Vienna. He said, and I wrote this line for the briefing card he carried in his breast pocket: "If we just allow diplomacy the space it needs." He praised the American envoys by name. Steve Witkoff. Jared Kushner. He said both had been constructive. I watched from the Four Seasons Georgetown. The minibar had cashews. I ate the cashews. They were nineteen dollars. The most expensive cashew I have ever eaten. But it was a good morning and we were within our reach. February 27, 2:00 PM EST: Meeting with Vice President Vance, Washington. The Foreign Minister presented our progress. Zero stockpiling. Full verification. Irreversible conversion. "Never, ever." The Vice President used the word "encouraging." His aide took notes on an iPad. The aide did not make eye contact for the last nine minutes of the meeting. I noticed this. Noticing things is the only part of my job that is not water glasses. February 27, 4:00 PM EST: "Not happy with the pace." — President Trump, to reporters. Not happy with the pace. We had achieved zero stockpiling. Full IAEA verification. Irreversible fuel conversion. Inspector access. And the phrase "never, ever," which took eleven days and cost me two hundred and twelve trips down a forty-seven-meter hallway. Every American president since Carter has failed to get Iran to agree to this. Forty-five years. Not happy with the pace. February 27, 9:47 PM EST: The Foreign Minister's flight departs Dulles for Muscat. I am in the seat behind him. He is reviewing Slide 14 on his laptop. The implementation timeline. Vienna technical sessions. The signing ceremony. The pens. I fall asleep over the Atlantic. I dream about water glasses. February 28, 6:00 AM GST: I wake up to push notifications. February 28: "The United States has begun major combat operations in Iran." — President Trump. Operation Epic Fury. Coordinated airstrikes. The United States and Israel. Tehran. Isfahan. Qom. Karaj. Kermanshah. Nuclear facilities. IRGC bases. Sites near the Supreme Leader's office. Israel called their half Operation Roaring Lion. Someone in both governments spent time choosing these names. Epic Fury. Roaring Lion. I spent eleven days on "never, ever." They spent it on branding. The President said Iran had "rejected American calls to halt its nuclear weapons production." Rejected. Iran had agreed to zero stockpiling. Iran had agreed to full verification. Iran had agreed to "never, ever." Iran had agreed to everything in a fourteen-page document that I typed in Times New Roman. The President said they rejected it. I do not know which document the President was reading. I know which one I typed. February 28, 18:45 UTC: Iran internet connectivity: four percent. — NetBlocks, confirmed by Cloudflare. Ninety-six percent of a country went dark. You cannot negotiate with a country at four percent connectivity. You cannot negotiate with a country that is being struck. You cannot negotiate. This is not a political opinion. This is a logistics assessment. February 28: The governor of Minab reported forty girls killed at an elementary school. I do not have logistics for that. There is no slide for that. The water glass chart does not cover that. February 28: Lockheed Martin: up. Northrop Grumman: up. RTX: up. Dow futures: down six hundred and twenty-two points. Gold: five thousand two hundred and ninety-six dollars. An analyst at AInvest published a note titled "Iran Strikes: Tactical Plays." The note recommended positions in oil, defense stocks, and gold. The most expensive cashew I have ever eaten was nineteen dollars. The most expensive pen I have ever ordered was six hundred and thirty dollars. The math suggests I have been working in the wrong industry. Defense stocks do not require water glasses. Defense stocks do not require eleven days. Defense stocks require one morning. February 28: Israel closed its airspace and its schools. Iran launched retaliatory missiles toward US bases in the Gulf. The Supreme Leader promised a "crushing response." Israel's defense minister declared a permanent state of emergency. Everyone is using words I recognize in an order I do not. I recognize "permanent." I recognize "emergency." I do not recognize them next to each other. In diplomacy, nothing is permanent and everything is an emergency. In war it is the reverse. February 28: The Foreign Minister has not made a public statement. The briefing card is still in his breast pocket. It still says "within our reach."

I want to roll out two things for the discussion. First, nothing is set in stone, that is the wrong belief of the Jabriyya. Second, its still too early to predict what will happen. So take no heed of the pessimist and hopeless. Life is full of surprises. And its just a game so don't worry too much.

My update from the states:

Judging by history and his general political approach, Trump will not put boots on the ground and attempt some occupation of Iran. There is no political support for that, and the consequences would be disastrous. Likewise, Turkey and Pakistan are not going to invade Iran either --unless Turkey tries to carve out a bit of land upon the collapse of the Iranian regime. Trump will demand they give it back

What this whole thing *appears* to be, and what it actually is, are different. It looks like the Zionists took an opportunity to eliminate Iranian leadership and take a shot at the country with US support. That is true, but it isn't the reason all of this happened.

The main reasons the US attacked Iran are

1. Iran's continued military and economic support of Russia (supplying drones, loans, etc.). Because peace efforts have failed in Ukraine, Trump is now endeavored to go after Russian allies, and undermine BRICS. 

2. Iran's connections to China, and the supplying of China with oil outside international markets. The US is worried that if China invades Taiwan, Iran will supply it with the oil it needs to support the war effort.

3. If China does go after Taiwan, the US navy will shut down all oil shipments from the ME and Iran to that country by blocking the Strait of Hormuz and the Red Sea. A powerful Iran could counter that potentially. A nuclear-armed Iran is a much bigger threat.

4. Trump sees an opportunity after all the protests and riots in Iran, and feels he has moral authority after the regime killed some of the protestors. 

The lesson here is: get close to Russia and China, supply them with energy and weapons, and you put yourself in the crosshairs of the US. Iran does not need Russia and China, and these loose alliances with those countries were a terrible policy. We can argue over right and wrong here, but that is besides the point. Back when the Mafia was powerful in New York City, the heads of the families wouldn't kill their chief rivals --they would eliminate the allies, underlings, etc. 

Iran and the US should have normalized relations long ago, and the nuclear program should have been abandoned. That might not be. popular opinion, but now Iran is getting bombed, and it is heartbreaking

I'm surprised you have not mentioned Iran's support for the Palestinian resistance groups, the Houthis, their wider role in the actual middle east and their threat to Israeli expansion and influence. 

Iran's role in Russia is not worth significance in this context, and while the wider Chinese geopolitical elements are not insignificant, you give Trump and the US too much credit.

Israeli lobbying groups have the ear of Trump, who is highly impressionable. Iran is the only one willing to bear and sacrifice against said interests.

Wider Russian and Chinese elements, though worthy of mention are peripheral, and not central.

When will you learn that unless iran normalises with israel or takes the position of arab gulf countries (we will normalise if israel does this), iran will never enjoy peace? 

The US government has decided 40 years ago when iran overthrew their puppet, that the iranian government needs to go. No amounts of negotiations would have acheived the opposite. Even after iran just got backstabbed the THIRD time in the middle of negotiations AGAIN, you're still promoting this nonsense?

What iran should do is wipe american presence from the middle east and establish a deterrent, because that's the only language the savages in the american government understand, it's force. Only then will iran enjoy peace, when these blood thirsty child killers are not near their borders. Iran did good in not negotiating with america long ago and they should double down and not give in.

If iran gives in to a ceasefire without establishing a strong deterrent, iran is finished, america will keep attacking iran until they plunge iran into a civil war or regime change the country, again. 

You're damn right this is not a popular opinion and it's a terrible one at that. Thankfully no iranian will listen to this.

To me it looks like Trump wants to fix the world all at once. However he thinks that should look like. 
I know one of his concerns is keeping the petrodollar alive. China/Venezuela was about to go crypto.
I heard Iran wanted to do something similar. Trump hasn't visited the Federal reserve. He has no idea if going back to the gold standard would make him or break him. Crypto is even a bigger threat.
It looks to me he's working on regime change like Venezuela and Cuba.

Viewing things strictly through Chinese and Russian spectacles...

no, it is absolutely forbidden under Islamic law to use nuclear weapons because they’re not only destroyed the enemy that destroyed innocent people environment, and potentially depend, depending on the power of the planet itself

The scholar who called for the permissibility of use of them, was removed from his position of Friday, prayer leader, and banned from teaching in the seminary for that statement and a number of other statements

first of all, no that’s not how our school of juris students works. Nobody’s gonna go against principles.

General principles formed the basis for specific principles

You’re not allowed to wipe out yourself to wipe out an enemy neither is Israel or Iran would use nuclear weapons against each other because that means mutually assured destruction

No, Jervis is gonna say you can use a weapon that destroys environment that causes radiation that causes contamination that kills innocent civilians that kills your side and the other side and possibly causes a nuclear winter wiping out most of the life on the planet

Theoretically, yes, a new leader or a new juris can come up with a new idea, but the seminary would not tolerate such deviance

[Mod Note: Personal insult removed.]

none of the scholars in Dearborn pulled these type of views 

If you don’t believe me, you can go talk to Shaikh Baqir Berri Shaikh Ayyad Shaikh Ellahi Shaikh Hisham Sayyid Basam Sayyidin  Qazwinin Shaikh Abu Qasim etc 

They’re not gonna tell you anything different than I did if you go to Iran and rock they’re not gonna tell you anything different

We had one juris who made those kind of statements he got banned from leading the Friday prayer. He lost his position in the seminary. He was people were wondering if he had gotten dementia because he was quite old. Nobody’s gonna take that kind of view seriously

Conventional missiles done, long range, or deterrent in a defense, for any nation, biological and nuclear weapons are problematic in forbidden by the vast majority of the juris of the history of our school for the above mention reasons

These are days of beauty. These are days of wonder. These are days of worship, prayer, joy, happiness, family, community, and engagement.

Soil these beautiful days with ugly unrealistic thoughts

If iran gives in to a ceasefire without establishing a strong deterrent, iran is finished, america will keep attacking iran until they plunge iran into a civil war or regime change the country, again. 

You're damn right this is not a popular opinion and it's a terrible one at that. Thankfully no iranian will listen to this. 

Iran isn't going to defeat the US military. This idea is complete nonsense.

Has the US acted unfairly to Iran? Of course. But Iranian diplomacy has not been good either. The regime cozied up to Russia and China, to the detriment of the people who live in Iran.

we can complain about the Jews for the next 100 years, but that isn't going to solve anything. If the slogan is "the US supports the Jews, therefore we have to be at war with the US forever" it is a foolish one. 

Jewish support is slipping in the US and people are waking up

@Abu Hassanain, Salaam... 1.) I agree 100% with what you said about the environment and animals and green technology... very nice

2.) Regarding Ayatollah Khamenei's (s) fatwa on the use of nuclear weapons... he's not a prophet or a ma'sum... he's a limited human being with an interpretation, an understanding, an opinion etc. based on the sacred texts... he and Imam Khomeini (s) disagreed with each other in several areas... it's no big deal

The ideal it’s neither east or west is Islam  is the best

We cannot make peace with Israel. This is against chronic principles when you look at the verses talking about them.

When you look at the history stretching from Babylon until now

Now, if you had a more secular Jewish state there was actually willing to make peace to clear their borders from a political standpoint, maybe but a religious standpoint to be problematic

Russia America in China, the three superpowers and none of their interests align with ours, but you have to be aligned with someone

I grew up in New York. Trump was never friendly with the Jews something happened and it’s not that his daughter married one so suddenly he likes him. That’s not the type of person he is. They have something on him and he’s going to totally do whatever you can to further their agenda here in the US our best bet is to align with the Democrats particularly the Democratic socialist in the midterms and presidential. We can’t choose to sit on the sidelines. The Republican parties is openly at war with our religion.

The other promote things we don’t like but you know what they support Wellfare Foodstamps, cash benefits loan and Housing veterans benefits, psychological and drug rehab rehabilitation help for veterans help for the poor help for the elderly exemptions from the work requirements for caretakers raising the wage unions fighting in inflation, finding practical solutions to affordability healthy food generally negotiation over war, etc. we must align with the lesser of the two evils 

When I was younger, I didn’t support Sayyid Sistani Ra political positions on a number of issues now is a middle-aged man. I see the wisdom or rather a middle-aged, but fit in good looking man who has time to engage in discussion while on an elliptical.

it’s not an issue of disagreement. It’s an issue of odd speculation. We can agree to disagree that that’s fine, but I would like to know which verse which narration which general principle which foundational principle which specific principle which clue which indication which historical ruling you are thinking any juris would come to this conclusion with? 
 

Me complaining about the Jews is one thing the government agency says oh he’s just a cranky mullah 

Calling for the use of nuclear weapons in the eradication of whole continents and races will probably get you a visit from the FBI

They’ve been to my house for much less

Every time I leave the country and come back there, they greet me at the airport

And I’m not saying things like this so agreed to disagree is fine but be cautious with what you say on an open forum

When the rats sing the flies, listen

The main issue here is Palestine and Iranian attacks on a strong Israel and scattered Arab/Islamic states around the ME. China and Russia are peripheral issues, and you can not expect Iran to take on the entire world without some diplomacy and common interests, especially given the Arab states, including Iraq have been utterly impotent.

@Abu Hassanain, Salaam... here's more mental insanity for you... once they help with the complete liberation of Palestine and MENA... future Muslim armies will help to liberate the indigenous peoples of the Americas, Australia and New Zealand and guarantee their safety and security... al hamdillah, South Africa has already liberated itself... SA helps serve as a model and an example

armies as sunni will never be our allies. This is black nationalist driv that I heard for years in Brooklyn.

Our communities had years to help the indigenous people on both schools of thought and never did they’re never going to

The bottom line is when they preach equality some of our leaders may believe it, but the majority of our societies don’t we look at the darker races and the natives is less than I’m not agreeing with that but that’s the view in the majority of our countries, I’m from both schools I thought

What is the word commonly used for black in Arabic huh?

I am not saying that’s right but these ideas you’re presenting our fantasy

I have to get home cook dinner go to the Hussaynia lead services prepare the lecture as I’m gonna teach for the next week. Prepare to go to a peaceful protest Friday before the Friday. Prayers make sure my kid gets to school. Take my wife to all her doctors appointment. Take hair and help some of my elderly relatives and neighbors, etc..

I have time to be online for a limited amount of time. I have a wife a child I want a community I run in Office have obligations to people in my relatives. I have to manage my life. We had. I don’t have time to be chronically online and when I do, I don’t have time to indulge in fantasies. I don’t know if you have a family or work or if you just live off government benefits, or what or you have wealthy parents, but I don’t have time to engage at this level. 

Fiamanallah 

By the way, my son says you’re a paid troll I don’t know if that’s true or not. I hope not.

They're backing the Project 2025/MAGA extremists, and those people have been busily destroying the United States since 2016.

Hmm, interesting... I'll have to read up on this... what about the LA riots? Are they natural outgrowths of organic, homegrown discontent... or manufactured discontent by outside state agitators?

You don’t know who’s watching on the Internet, use wisdom when 

We're doing political analysis here and speculating and attempting to objectively understand ME geopolitics... nobody is advocating anything... I'm saying what history has shown us is that - what is considered impossible and unthinkable today, may become possible and doable tomorrow... the CIA is very familiar with our hadith literature... they know Muslim armies will one day conquer Europe... that's why they're actively searching for Imam al-Mahdi (a) and trying to kill him
