2014-2019 Islam�s (Shiite) countdown to the 12th Imam Mahdi

Many Shia Muslims are waiting for a European to emerge as anti-Christ, who starts out peacefully, and then wages war. There is already a plan in place, which Islam admits to, where a world war will take place to convert the world to Islam. When is the 12th Imam Mahdi showing up?

****While various leaders and countries may have conspiracies and plots to dominate the world, this is to get people to look around at all possibilities.

**** From a few comments, This �Mahdi� is a Shia belief, and only represents about 10% of Muslims, from what 2 readers have told me so far. The Shias are located primarily in Iran.

The Sunnis represent about 90% of the Muslim population.

*** From another comment, each group has a Mahdi figure, but its manifestation is different for each group. One is in �occultation.� - -

Who is the Imam Mahdi � according to Shia Muslims?

Reference: http://www.islam.tc/prophecies/imam.html -

The term �MAHDI� is a title meaning �The Guided one�.
Hadhrat Ali (R.A.) 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 Dawood) -

His Features
Hadhrat Abu Saeed Khudri (R.A.) 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:

- - For Emergence and rule, see reference. - -

Numerology predictions.
Muslims believe in numerology, or the study of number combinations. Whether this is logical to us does not matter, because it is to them. They act in accordance to what their holy numbers tell them. So it is good to be aware of what influences them. -

2014 is a target date possibly for the Imam. It is called the �historical year.� See here.

They are following a timeline as much as possible to introduce their Imam Mahdi, who is expected to occur in 2014. Reference:

The Time-Period

(a possible timeline scenario)

Conversion to Islam � The Plan for The Entire World
Infidel�s Must Convert to Islam
2001 � WTC announcement/awakening to shake the world [the New Millennium began in 2001and marked the beginning of the Islamic countdown; a pled disappearance coinciding with the Jewish Rosh ha Shanah];
2003 � Ramadan (Ramazan) � Imam Mahdi anouncement proclaimed to the world [the splitting of the Moon/lunar eclipse(s) of Ramadan; Al Mahdi is invisible and in hiding/seclusion]. The double eclipse occurred Nov 9 and 23rd. Both eclipses occurred during Ramadan 2003 between Oct 27 thru Nov 27th.
2004 � 2005 Ramadan � Mahdi�s emergence revealed (the two eclipses of 2003 to 2005)
From 2003 to 2005 � the only befitting time-frame for this part of Islamic eschatology to begin unfolding. There will be no other time-frame that even comes close to this for several thousand years; many significant �signs in the sky� will point to this time-period as the most historically prophetic time in Islamic history.
2006 � 2007 + Mahdi emerges from hiding/seclusion as the new Khaleefah [1427] to rule for seven (7)yrs.
He will be revealed first to the Inner Circle of 12 and then to the 313 Mujahidin of the Mahdi (or Taliyah Al-mahdi);
2013 � Mahdi�s armies will fight Dajjal and his army in a great battle [Sura al-Qiyamah Ayaat 7-9];
2014 - Mahdi/Islamic followers seek to conquer the world for Islam � as a result, all people will recite and follow one Kalimah [word] and one religion [Islam]
I wonder if they think they are on schedule. I have not seen an Imam Mahdi yet. Notice he is to rule for 7 years. Does this sound familiar to Christians?
The Imam Mahdi is predicted to appear during 2 eclipses � first is the eclipse of the moon on the first night of Ramadan, and second is the eclipse of the sun during the middle of that same Ramadan.

So, when is Ramadan in the years of interest ahead? How do eclipses match up?

Ramadan seems to start anywhere from the end of May and lasts until the end of August.
Eclipses in 2008 and 2009 precede Ramadan.
For years 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, there are no matches during Ramadan for eclipses in these years.
For 2018, eclipses occur in mid July to the end of July (partial sun and total moon).
For 2019, eclipses occur in early July to the middle of July (total sun and partial moon).
For 2020, no matches. - -

Will Muslims use the 2018 or 2019 information to wage the final world war? What does this mean for all of us?

Well a lot has transpired since July 2008. Here is a question that maybe everyone should ask!
�Q. Is Barack Obama the �promised warrior� coming to help the Hidden Imam of Shiite Muslims conquer the world?
A. This question has made the rounds in Iran since last month, when a pro-government Web site published a Hadith (or tradition) from a Shiite text of the 17th century. The tradition comes from Bahar al-Anvar (meaning Oceans of Light) by Mullah Majlisi, a magnum opus in 132 volumes and the basis of modern Shiite Islam.
According to the tradition, Imam Ali Ibn Abi-Talib (the prophet�s cousin and son-in-law) prophesied that at the End of Times and just before the return of the Mahdi, the Ultimate Saviour, a �tall black man will assume the reins of government in the West.� Commanding �the strongest army on earth,� the new ruler in the West will carry �a clear sign� from the third imam, whose name was Hussein Ibn Ali. The tradition concludes: �Shiites should have no doubt that he is with us.�
In a curious coincidence Obama�s first and second names�Barack Hussein�mean �the blessing of Hussein� in Arabic and Persian. His family name, Obama, written in the Persian alphabet, reads O Ba Ma, which means �he is with us,� the magic formula in Majlisi�s tradition.�
