From the foregoing: that the Banu Mutayyim are among the fiercest people against the Antichrist, and before that they supported the Mahdi... along with a group of Arab tribes, such as Qays, Thaqif, 'Adwan, and Al-Harith.
(The arrival of the Mahdi) (A month) It appeared that the matter of a man would emerge at the forefront of his people, the Banu Mutayyim, and the pledge of allegiance to the Mahdi. (And a month) It is 6. (Years) There is no one today who rules, even by a thread, from the Banu Mutayyim, except (Mutayyim bin Muhammad), the ruler of Qatar, as the second lineage belongs to them. From the Banu Mutayyim.
(Mutayyim) ruled in 1402 AH, which corresponds to 1982 AD. If we add 6 years, then the pledge of allegiance to the Mahdi would be approximately 1402 AH, which corresponds to 1982 AD. And the year 1408 AH, so the emergence and pledge of allegiance to the Mahdi would be between the years 1402 AH and 1408 AH.
From Umm Sa'id, Al-Khumayriyyah, she said: I said to Ibn 'Abd Allah (May I be sacrificed for you, O son of the Messenger of Allah, place a sign in my hand of the emergence of the Qa'im, peace be upon him). She said: He said to me: O Umm Sa'id, when the moon is eclipsed on the night of the full moon in Rajab, and a man emerges from beneath it, then that is at the emergence of the Qa'im, peace be upon him. (The Explanation of the Imams, by Muhammad Mahdi). And he published an article by the astronomer Ordain (Imad Al-Ruhaymi), which, in his opinion, reveals the date of the Mahdi's emergence, down to the day, month, and year. He set the date 20/12/2042 AD as the date for the emergence of the Mahdi, peace be upon him. His argument is that he accessed the table of total lunar eclipses from 2026 AD to 4000 AD, and found that the moon will not be totally eclipsed except on that date.
From Imam Muhammad Al-Baqir, peace be upon him, he said: (I see the Qa'im [meaning the Mahdi] on the day of Ashura, and it is the day on which Al-Husayn bin Ali, peace be upon them, was killed, and I see him on Saturday, the tenth of Muharram, the Qa'im of Banu Al-Rukn and Al-Qiyam. (Compendium of Hadiths of Imam Mahdi, by Al-Kurani). If this narration is authentic, then it would be on Saturday, which falls on 20/02 Muharram (Ashura), and it would be in the year 1446 AH, corresponding to the year 2024 AD.
