The appearance of the Mahdī is counted among the great signs. His name is given as Muḥammad and his father’s as ʿAbd Allāh. He will be a descendant of Fāṭimah through the line of al-Ḥasan, may Allah be pleased with them.
He will be associated with Madinah. His emergence does not begin a new prophethood; rather, it marks leadership within the community of Muḥammad ﷺ, characterized by justice and guidance.
