¶ The Events of the Rise
¶ “And by the Promised Day.”
Imam Ahmed Al-Hassan (From Him is Peace) spoke to me about the events of the Rise. He spoke to me about what would come before, during, and after the Rise. He spoke to me about great prophecies that were never spoken of before, some of which concerned the world in general, and other prophecies were pertaining to me specifically. In 2015, Imam Ahmed Al-Hassan (From Him is Peace) prophesied to me some things that would happen to me over the course of the coming years. Much of it came to pass. Imam Ahmed Al-Hassan (From Him is Peace) said,
Our first house of worship where God shall be worshiped with His true religion will be in Europe. My son, you are approaching a clear opening. Your matter shall grow large and rise high by the permission of God. No oppressor shall welcome you. No one in reality will welcome you but in the apparent they will deal with you in accordance with the principles of their so-called democracy. It is your land, son, all of it shall be under the rulership of God, choose the appropriate place for you and all of it is appropriate God-willing. At first, you shall be in occultation for a while, then you shall openly announce [the religion] with a group of pure ones whom you shall meet over there, and your mention shall rise, and your command shall be obeyed. Over there you shall meet your brother and you shall meet your sister, and you shall meet Umm Mohammed and her husband Aba Mohammed, the parents of Mohammed (PBUH) who will rule the entire universe, God-willing, in his time, Mohammed son of Al-Zahra (PBUH). You now have one abode over there in one of the European countries and more shall follow God-willing, this is all from God Almighty. You remain steadfast in what you are doing and your direction and do not worry about what I shall do. You shall be comfortable God-willing, and you shall be extremely surprised due to what you shall see of things that you did not expect.
Indeed, the first house of worship for God was established in Europe. Indeed, I met those pure individuals who stood with me over the past years and still stand with me, sticking by my side and never leaving it, my family and community. I also met those other individuals and some of them indeed surprised me with their betrayals and actions that I did not expect. Now God-willing, we are raising the words and teachings of Imam Ahmed Al-Hassan (From Him is Peace) and are approaching the clear opening.
¶ The Plan of God
Imam Ahmed Al-Hassan (From Him is Peace) said,
Now, let us leave the speech about you and I and let us direct our focus to the battlefield, the land that every Prophet, Vicegerent, Messenger, and Caliph of God has been waiting for, the battle of truth against falsehood. This battle has several aspects to it. A group of you shall be in Europe. A group of you shall be in Iraq, and Mecca, and Egypt. It is a circle like the beads of a necklace, all are tied together, each completing the other. You have entered Egypt and established the Platform of Egypt. Now you shall leave it, and return to it as an opener, God-willing. The day shall come, God-willing, and you shall see how God is Great and you shall see how perfect His plan is and how it would never cross the mind of a creature, and so all praises due to God.
¶ Close Signs of the Rise
I said, “What are some of the close signs of the Rise?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “A shoe will cause a great war to take place between two tyrannical countries and both sides will be destroyed.”
I said, “Glory be to God.”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “Many great tribulations will strike the Earth and much real estate will not be worth anything in that time. Look closely to Mecca.”
I said, “Tell me more, may I be your ransom.”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “Seagulls will go extinct. And many other species will go extinct, and many new species will be discovered.”
I said, “Glory be to God!”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “A science experiment goes wrong and causes a lot of damage, and a very small animal will cause an international incident [We now know this animal to be the coronavirus, these prophecies were given in 2015]. Many world leaders and Arab leaders will die in a short time period from one another.”
¶ We Are in the Rise Right Now
I said, “So did the Rise begin with the death of king Abdullah and the appearance of Imam Mahdi (PBUH)?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “Yes, son.”
I said, “So we are in the Rise right now?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “Yes, as Prophet Mohammed (PBUH & His Family) said: ‘My religion did not rise except through the wealth of Khadijah and the sword of Ali ibn Abi Talib.’ As such, 40 percent of the Rise is raising funds and 60 percent is physical.”
I said, “So right now the one who abandons his post and position and work in this Call is like the one who abandons his post in the Rise with the Riser/Qaim?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “Absolutely, there is no difference, we are in the Rise right now.”
Bida’a
I said, “Is there any Bida’a [changes to a matter after it has been ordained] that will take place in regard to the Rise?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “Yes son, there has happened a lot of Bida’a in this matter. It happened, my son. Bida’a happened several times.”
I said, “Could it happen that Bida’a takes place, and the Rise does not take place in our time?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “It’s possible, my son.”
I said, “How is that the case, my Father, when you are the First Mahdi?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “There is no such thing as ‘how’, my son, I mean in regard to the timing, and not in regard to the matter.”
I said, “No, I mean is it possible that the Rise does not happen during your life?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “No, my son, that is not possible.”
¶ Is It a Military Rise?
I said, “My Father, does the Rise start as a military rise?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “Depends, it is not a condition.”
I said, “Or does the Rise happen as an intellectual one and, for example, an entire country comes to believe in this religion.”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “It depends on the faith of the believers and their intentions and the amount of their submission and obedience. For every event there is a speech.”
I said, “Can the Rise be delayed?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “It can be canceled and not delayed.”
I said, “Canceled? Do you mean that there could not be a Divine Just State altogether on Earth ever?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “No, son, no. It is possible that the Rise which was meant to take place in a certain part of the Earth is canceled and goes to another land and instead takes place on another spot on this Earth.”
I said, “I am speaking about it not happening at all on our Earth because of the believers being weak or traitors or or. For example, like what happened with Jesus the son of Mary (PBUH), he was supposed to rule Jerusalem and the world as the Jewish Messiah, or Mohammed (PBUH & His Family) who was supposed to fill the Earth with justice and equity and then because of the people, the matter was delayed in both their cases.”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “The matter can be a bit later but to not happen altogether, that is not possible.”
I said, “When you say it can be a bit later, do you mean that it would be delayed until the time of another Mahdi other than this time in which you are currently present?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “No, son, no, don’t go far in your thinking.”
I said, “Even if it were the case, I would remain patient and working between your hands, I only care about you being pleased.”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “Blessed you are! O pure one! Blessed you are!
O beloved of your Father!”
I said, “My Father, could the Rise happen through the purchase of vast amounts of land and then declaring a nation-state and through a declaration of independence?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “They won’t let you be, and they will not lay the ground with roses for you.”
I said, “Yes, they do not even let us be now, so how would it be if we have a state.”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “Exactly.”
I said, “So now, from where is it meant to begin?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “Iraq or Hijaz.”
I said, “Glory be to God.”
¶ The Process
I said, “How much of the world shall be in the Divine Just State?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “A lot, but it is not the size that you imagine.”
I said, “So how many for example?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “The Arab countries and parts of others, and others in their entirety.”
I said, “So, it will encompass a third of the world for example or a fourth?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “What stage are we talking about so that I can answer you precisely?”
I said, “Rulership and true Kingship was never taken away from you in order that it be returned to you and the entire planet is yours. Everything is between your hands, but from what I understand, the Divine Just State shall continue to grow throughout the periods of the Mahdis until the entire Earth is in the Divine Just State in the time of the Twelfth Mahdi, Mohammed son of Al-Zahra (PBUH) and there is not a single country out of it. So, during the time period of Dawn (Fajr), which is Imam Mahdi, and Noon (Dhuhr), which is Imam Ahmed Al-Hassan, which countries will be in the Divine Just State?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “My son, it is a matter of attack and retreat. We shall take a piece of land and lose another, until we control all of it and have control over all parts of the globe. This shall happen between the first and throughout all of the periods of the Mahdis until the last Mahdi.”
I said, “All praises due to God.”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “The worst time period will be the rule of Adam (PBUH) [The Fourth Mahdi].”
I said, “From which aspect is it the worst?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “In terms of treachery and backstabbing.”
¶ Death of the Mahdis
One day I was asking Imam Ahmed Al-Hassan (From Him is Peace) about some narrations, and I asked, “The narration which says the Mahdi is scared and on the lookout, this is about Moses (PBUH) correct?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “Yes, this is about Moses. Fajr (Dawn) is Imam Mahdi (PBUH), Dhuhr (Noon) is the first Mahdi, Asr (Mid-day) is you, Maghrib (Dusk) is Moses and Isha (Night) is Adam.”
I said, “Will darkness and oppression return to the Earth in his time and in the time of Adam (PBUH), night?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “Yes, it begins in the time of Moses, and it worsens greatly in the time of Adam. Adam will lead a great war in which hundreds of thousands will die.”
I said, “There is no power nor might except with God. Who will this war be against, Father? Will it be against a particular country?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “It shall be against the enemies of the rulership of God and the supporters of evil.”
I said, “May God curse them. Adam will remain until that time in his current body, not in a new incarnation I mean?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “If I answer that now you shall be confused and it shall harm you, because my answer is not what you expect or imagine. You shall know, but not now.”
I said, “Will America remain after you? Because in the Sermon of Hajj you say, ‘America, Rome, behind it’ ”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “As for the Romans, their remnants will remain then they shall become strong and deceive the people once again, but that shall not be for long. The Sixth and Seventh Mahdis shall completely destroy them along with the Eighth, Ninth, Tenth, and Eleventh (PBUT) until there comes the final Mahdi Mohammed (PBUH & His Family), the Seal of the Mahdis, that shall fill the Earth with justice and equity and will rule for many years.”
I said, “My Father, can you tell me something?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “What is it?”
I said, “How will I be killed? By the sword or by poisoning?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “You will be killed by the sword and by poisoning, may my soul be your ransom, both of them, you will be poisoned and killed.”
I said, “By the Romans?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “By the miserable, the traitors.”
I said, “There is no God but God, the hypocrites?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “The hypocrites.”
I said, “Will Moses take revenge for me?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “God-willing. My son, leave this speech for now, please.”
I asked the Imam (From Him is Peace), “What about Moses and Adam (PBUT)?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “My son, pretty much everyone is killed by hypocrites and traitors.”
I said, “God’s curse be upon them.”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “Fever always comes from the feet.”
I asked, “My Father, why do people kill the Mahdis and one of them is slaughtered like Al-Hussein (PBUH)?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “My son, this matter is painful, it is because of deep envy against the Family of Mohammed (PBUT) and revenge, those things make some people go back from their faith.”
I said, “And what about after Mohammed son of Al-Zahra (PBUH)? Shall the conditions become stable in the period of the Hadun?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “The greatest period is the period of Mohammed son of Al-Zahra (PBUH). He shall fill the Earth up with justice and equity.”
I said, “And how long does it remain as such?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “17 years. The rule of Mohammed (PBUH & His Family) is 17 years. However, justice and equity shall last much longer than that. After that the matters shall remain good.”
I said, “Shall you return? As one of the Hadun?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “You mean Ahmed Al-Hassan?”
I said, “Yes.”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “My beloved son, can I refrain from responding?”
I began to weep and I said, “You are breaking my heart.”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “It is for that reason that I do not want to answer.”
I said, “You have broken my heart! Ahmed Al-Hassan never returns?”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “I apologize, O light of my eyes.”
I continued to weep profusely.
The Imam (From Him is Peace) said, “Peace be upon you, O beloved of your Father, and the mercy and blessings of God, O light of my eyes.”
The Imam (From Him is Peace) got up and walked away.

The opposite of Bida’a is Mahtum, which means firmly ordained and unchangeable. An example of Bida’a would be the delays in the flood of Noah (PBUH). The flood was delayed for the purpose of sifting the believers. Examples of Mahtum signs are the Rise of the Yamani, the Sufyani, the Sayhah (Call from the sky), and the Hand in the sky.
