Course Text:  Forty Hadith on Imam Mahdi
Text Author:   Shaykh Abu Nu'aym al Asbahani 

Introduction: There are many Ahadith (narrations) on the personality of Sayyiduna Imam Mahdi Al-Ashari. 40 Hadith on Imam Mahdi is a Arbayn text written by Shaykh Abu Nu'aym al Asbahani. The text delves deep into the different narrations mentioned by RasoolAllah (saw) on the personality and appearance of the chosen Imam Mahdi (as). The personality of the Mahdi will be immense and beautiful. The Prophet once said to Ali (as) regarding the personality of the Mahdi ‘The Mahdi is one of us, a member of my family. Allaah will guide him in a single night.’". But what does it mean to be guided in one night? And is it not that he will know he is the Mahdi? Many questions stem from one hadith. This is why hadith exegesis or analysis is important. The Shaykh (Atabek) will go over the 40 hadith transmitted in the book of Shaykh Abu Nuaym Al Asbahani and explain them using logic and theological arguments. He will relate issues in the world today and relate them to the prophesies mentioned about the Mahdi in Hadith. .
