He claimed to have a copy of the book "Al-Jahfar," and that a man would appear in a land whose letters were "T. Y. N. M. L." (Tinmel). He also claimed that his greatest companion would be a man named 'A. B. D. A. L. M. W. M. N. (Abd al-Mu'min), and that his time was near. Through his cunning, he met a capable man named Abdullah al-Wansharisi, who was learned and eloquent in Arabic and Berber. Ibn Tumart accompanied him and instructed him to feign ignorance and indifference until the appointed time, when he would be instructed to use his eloquence and knowledge. His sheikh claimed this as one of his miracles. This happened. He accompanied him and went to the far west, and spoke of changing the state with his inner circle. He advised the king and his minister to be cautious before the matter escalated, and not to spend too much today, because if he delayed, all the money would not resist it. Ibn Tumart objected to the king that wine was sold openly, pigs walked among Muslims, and the property of orphans was taken. His companions advised him to take refuge in a mountain in a nearby town. He asked them for its name, and they told him the name he had seen in "Al-Jahfar." There was a house among the mountain people for departure and armament until they believed in him, and he was able to equip an army of ten thousand men, armed with weapons.
