Lineage
Of Imam Mahdi (A.S.)
The
Holy Prophet (SA.W.S.) said,
"Al Mahdi is from us, Ahlul Bayt."
(Sunan Ibne Majah .VoL2 Pg.23, Al Mustadrak Vol.
4 Pg. 557)
The
Holy Prophet (SA.W.S.) said,
"Certainly, Ali Ibne Abi Talib Alaihis salaam is the Imam of my ummat
and my vicegerant upon them after me. And of his sons is Al Qaem, Al Montazar.
One, through whom Allah will fill the earth will justice and equity like
it would have been filled with injustice and tyranny."
(Kamaaluddin Vol.1 Pg.288. Faraidus simtain Vol.2
Pg. 335/336)
"Al Mahdi is from the sons of Fatima."
(Sunan Ibne Majah Vol.2 Pg.24)
Huzaifa says The Holy Prophet (SA.W.S.) has said,
"Even if one day remains for this world (to come to an end) Allah
will prolong that day until he sends a man from my progeny (sons). His
name shall be (like) my name." Salman
asked, "From which of your sons, O Prophet of Allah?"He (SA.W.S.)
replied, "From this son of mine", and thumped his hands upon
Husain (A.S.)"
(Zakhaerul Uqba Pg.136 & 137: Faraidus Simtain Vol.2 Pg.326)
A Jew, named Nathal asked the Holy Prophet (SA.W.S.),
"Inform me as to who is your successor? Because every Prophet
had a successor and our Prophet Musa Ibne Imran (A.S.) had designated
Yusha Bin Nun as his successor."
The
Holy Prophet (S.A.W.S.) replied, "Yes my Vasi and the caliph after
me is Ali bin Abi Talib and after him my grandsons Hasan and Husain, followed
by nine of the offsprings of Husain. They are the holy Imams."
The
Jew said, "O Muhammed, tell me their names."
'Yes,'
said the Prophet (S.A.W.S.), "When Husain will pass away, then his
son Ali, and after Ali his son Muhammed and after Muhammed his son Jafar
and after Jafar his son Musa and after Musa his son Ali and after Ali,
his son Muhammed and after Muhammed his son Ali after Ali his son Hasan
and after Hasan his son Hujjat Ibnul Hasan. These are the twelve Imams.
Their number is equal to the chiefs of Bani Israel"
(Faraidus Simtain Vol.2 Pg.133, Kifayatul Asar Pg.13
& 14. Yanabiul Mawaddah Pg. 441)
