Im talking about somebody else. He isnt the Imam mahdi from the 12th imam of shias. This one is also refered to Mahdi Alaihis Salam. He will actually die after defeating the dajjal and Jesus/Hazrat Esa will perform his funeral prayer.Who Is Imaam Mahdi?Please do not confuse Imaam Mahdi with Hadhrat Eisa (Jesus) alayhis salaam. They are two different persons, and both will come during the last days. According to Hadeeth, Imaam Mahdi will appear first, and Hadhrat Eisa alayhis salaam will appear during Imaam Mahdi's lifetime. Furthermore, only Hadhrat Eisa alayhis salaam will be able to kill Dajjal (the "anti-Christ").The term "MAHDI" is a title meaning "The Guided one".Hadhrat Abdullah bin Mas'ood radhiyallahu anhu says that Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wasallam said, "This world will not come to an end until one person from my progeny does not rule over the Arabs, and his name will be the same as my name."(Tirimdhi)Hadhrat Ali radhiyallahu anhu narrates that Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wasallam said, "Even if only a day remains for Qiyamah to come, yet Allah will surely send a man from my family who will fill this world with such justice and fairness, just as it initally was filled with oppression."(Abu Daawood)His FeaturesHadhrat Abu Saeed Khudri radhiyallahu anhu relates that Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wasallam said, "Al Mahdi will be from my progeny. His forehead will be broad and his nose will be high. He will fill the world with justice and fairness at a time when the world will be filled with oppression. He will rule for seven years."Other ahadeeth inform us that:He will be tallHe will be fair complexionedHis facial features will be similar to those of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wasallamHis character will be exactly like that of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wasallamHis father's name will be AbdullahHis mother's name will be AaminaHe will speak with a slight stutter and occasionally this stutter will frustrate him causing him to hit his hand upon his thigh.His age at the time of his emergence will be forty yearsHe will receive Knowledge from Allah.His Emergence and Rule
