🔴 I don’t know who the speaker is, but he is saying something very true.

Even I myself had never really paid attention to this—

visiting the Noble Lady, the mother of Imam al-Mahdi, may Allah hasten his noble reappearance, and the daughter of the Roman Emperor.

🔻 From now on, whenever we go to Samarra, we will pay much more attention to this.

➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖

🗣️ “O people!

Why do you stay in Karbala for three or four days, and in Najaf for three or four days, but when you come to Samarra, you stay for only an hour?

Samarra is the home of your Imam al-Mahdi, may Allah hasten his noble reappearance.

It is the resting place of two infallible Imams and two noble ladies: Lady Hakima Khatun and Lady Narjis Khatun, the mother of Imam al-Mahdi, may Allah hasten his noble reappearance.

You pass by the grave of this noble lady, perhaps take just one picture, and recite Ziyarat Jami‘ah al-Kabirah, which was taught by Imam al-Hadi, but you don't even recite a ziyarat for Lady Hakima Khatun.

Stay there. Spend the night. Rest.
Then, with a refreshed spirit and a joyful heart, go and visit these holy personalities.

Regarding the Sacred Cellar (Sardab) of Imam al-Mahdi, may Allah hasten his noble reappearance, Sayyid Ibn Tawus relates:

اللهم شيعتنا منا، خُلِقوا من فاضل طينتنا...

O Allah, our Shi'a are from us; they were created from the remainder of our clay.

O Allah, these Shi'a of ours have committed sins. Some of their sins concern Your rights, while others concern the rights of Your servants.

Those whose sins concern Your rights—forgive them for our sake. And those whose sins concern the rights of others—take from the surplus of our khums and distribute it among those whose rights have been violated.’


Look at how compassionate and merciful the Imam is toward his followers. ❤️

So why don't you stay in Samarra?

Why don't you speak with your Imam al-Mahdi, may Allah hasten his noble reappearance?

Why don't you open your heart to him and share your pain?
Why don't you place your difficulties before your Master?
Why don't you ask him for your needs?

O my Master, O son of al-Hasan, may Allah hasten your noble reappearance, forgive us. 🤲

Forgive us if we came to Samarra but did not properly visit your father, your grandfather, your mother, and your aunt.

And forgive us if, even in the Sacred Cellar, we did not offer you the ziyarat you truly deserved.

O Sahib al-Zaman, may Allah hasten your noble reappearance… forgive us. 🖤

🔴 The Lineage of Imam al-Mahdi: From Prophet Muhammad and Prophet David

✍️ Mostafa Amiri

🔻 According to Jewish and Christian beliefs, the Messiah and end-times savior must be a descendant of Prophet David.

▪️ On the other hand, the mother of Imam al-Mahdi, may Allah hasten his noble reappearance, was a Roman princess and the daughter of the Roman Emperor.

Lady Narjis Khatun, also known as Malika, belonged to the Byzantine royal family of the Roman Empire. On her father’s side, she was the granddaughter of the Byzantine king, while on her mother’s side, she was descended from Simon (Sham'un), regarded in Christian tradition as the first Pope and the successor of Prophet Jesus.

▪️ Simon’s mother was the sister of the father of the Virgin Mary:

«شَمْعُونُ بْنُ حَمُّونَ الصَّفَا ابْنُ عَمَّةِ مَرْيَم»

📚 Majlisi, Bihar al-Anwar, Vol. 25, p. 186.

▪️ Therefore, the lineage of Imam al-Mahdi, may Allah hasten his noble reappearance, reaches Prophet Muhammad through his father’s lineage, while through his mother’s lineage, he is also descended from Prophet David.

✨ Therefore, the status of the Shi'a Messiah / promised savior corresponds with prophecies mentioned in the scriptures and traditions of all three Abrahamic religions: Islam, Christianity, and Judaism.

For he is descended both from the Noble Prophet Muhammad and from Prophet David.

▪️ Through this divine and wise arrangement, the proof has been completed upon the followers of all three Abrahamic faiths.

🔻 Therefore, according to this argument, Jews who firmly adhere to the belief that the Messiah—the promised savior—must be a descendant of David would have reason to consider the claim regarding the Shi'a awaited savior.

This is because, according to the lineage presented above, Imam al-Mahdi, may Allah hasten his noble reappearance, is connected to Prophet David through his mother’s lineage.

🔴 A Response to the Channel’s Recent Post: This Argument Is Not Binding on Followers of Other Abrahamic Religions

✍️ Mostafa Amiri

🔻 The previous post on the channel was well received by our audience. However, when I consulted AI, I realized that my argument faces a serious challenge from the perspective of Judaism, because Jewish tradition generally emphasizes paternal lineage when it comes to the Davidic dynasty and the right to the Davidic throne.

Here is the issue:

In my previous post, I had written:

“Imam al-Mahdi, may Allah hasten his noble reappearance, is descended from David through his mother; therefore, he fulfills the requirement of the Messiah.”

However, from the Jewish perspective, this argument faces a serious challenge, because Judaism generally emphasizes paternal lineage.

Nevertheless, from a Christian theological perspective, my argument remains valid and potentially acceptable.

🔹 A further explanation:

The claim that the lineage reaches Prophet David through Simon al-Safa (Peter) is mentioned in Islamic sources. However, in Jewish and Christian traditions, the Davidic ancestry of Simon Peter is not established.

Even if this assumption were accepted, Jews and Christians would not necessarily regard this genealogical chain as authoritative, because it comes from sources outside their own scriptures and traditions.

Therefore, the argument that they “must necessarily believe” is not persuasive to Jewish or Christian audiences. The criteria for the Messiah in each religion are defined according to its own scriptures and traditions.

Consequently, a claim of maternal Davidic lineage based on a narration found only in Shi'a sources cannot be considered authoritative evidence for Jews. Rather, an argument intended for a Jewish audience would need to be established from Jewish texts and sources themselves.

Moreover, the central objection from a Jewish perspective is this:

🔻 For the Messiah to be considered Davidic, the Davidic lineage must come through the father, not the mother.

Jewish sources state that the kingship and right to David’s throne are transmitted through the paternal line—unlike Jewish identity, which is traditionally transmitted through the mother.

Thus, according to the Jewish criterion, the Messiah must be a descendant of David through the paternal line.

🔻 From the perspective of Christian theology, however, our argument does not face the same paternal-lineage obstacle found in Judaism.

Nevertheless, establishing the historical genealogical chain from Simon Peter to Prophet David would still require independent evidence from Christian sources and texts.

🔴 A Further Thought: What If Simon’s Father Was a Descendant of David?

Afterward, another thought occurred to me:

Perhaps Simon’s mother was the one through whom he was connected to David, while his father may himself have been descended from Prophet David.

If that were the case, then perhaps the requirement of the Messiah being Davidic through the paternal line could still apply to the Shi'a awaited savior.

🔹 The answer:

In Jewish tradition, being “a descendant of David” does not mean that having any paternal connection somewhere within one’s ancestry is sufficient. Rather, the person himself must belong to a direct paternal line descending from the House of David.

For example:

Simon’s father → paternal grandfather → father of the paternal grandfather → … → David

But if the lineage were:

Simon’s mother → maternal grandfather → maternal ancestors → David

then, according to traditional Jewish understanding, this would not constitute the Davidic royal lineage required for the Messiah.

🔻 But there is a more important point:

If it could be established that Simon’s own father was a descendant of David, then the situation would be completely different.

In that case, Simon would be Davidic through his father, not through his mother.

And if Lady Narjis Khatun was descended from Simon, then Imam al-Mahdi, may Allah hasten his noble reappearance, would also trace his lineage back to Prophet David through that paternal Davidic line.

So the key question in resolving this issue is:

❓ Do any Jewish, Christian, or Islamic sources state that Simon Peter had a paternal lineage that can be traced back to Prophet David?

At this point, I cannot go any further myself. This question should be addressed to specialists in comparative religion and religious history.

Perhaps we can explore this issue at another time.

🔴 The Islamic Savior: A Descendant of Imam al-Hasan or Imam al-Husayn?

✍️ Mostafa Amiri

🔻 Sunni Muslims identify the Promised Mahdi and the Islamic savior as a descendant of Imam al-Hasan, whereas in Shi'a tradition, Imam al-Mahdi is regarded as a descendant of Imam al-Husayn.

However, Imam al-Mahdi, may Allah hasten his noble reappearance, can be considered a descendant of both Imam al-Hasan and Imam al-Husayn.

🔹 The explanation:

All of the Imams after Imam al-Baqir are descendants of both Imam al-Husayn and Imam al-Hasan.

This is because the wife of Imam Zayn al-Abidin (Imam al-Sajjad) was a daughter of Imam al-Hasan.

Therefore, all the descendants, grandchildren, and Sayyids descending from Imam al-Baqir, including Imam al-Mahdi, the son of Imam al-Hasan al-Askari, are descendants of Imam al-Husayn through Imam al-Sajjad, while also being descendants of Imam al-Hasan through Imam al-Sajjad’s wife.

🔻 Therefore, Imam al-Mahdi, may Allah hasten his noble reappearance, traces his paternal lineage back to Imam al-Husayn, while through his maternal lineage, he also traces his ancestry back to Imam al-Hasan.

🔴 Jordan’s King: The West-Backed “Jewish Blue-Eyed” Monarch

✍️ Mostafa Amiri

🔻 Among the kings of Arab countries, the King of Jordan is different. The distinctiveness of King Abdullah II is not merely due to the fact that he is described as the only “blue-eyed” monarch in the Arab world. His Jewish mother, his political conduct, his hostility toward Shiites, his alliance with Israel, and other factors are also presented as distinguishing him from other Arab kings.

The Hashemite Dynasty (Arabic: الهاشميون) is a dynasty of Sunni Arab rulers who claim descent from the Sayyids and the Prophet Muhammad.

The Jordanian royal family claims to be descended from the Hashemite family. A genealogy is also reportedly available on the official website of Jordan, tracing his lineage through Imam Hasan back to the Prophet Muhammad [1].

Interestingly, Sunni tradition identifies the awaited savior as a descendant of Imam Hasan, whereas in Shiite tradition, the awaited savior is regarded as a descendant of Imam Husayn.

King Abdullah of Jordan received his education in Britain and the United States.

He was the first person to raise the issue of the threat posed by the “Shiite Crescent” at the beginning of the Syrian crisis.

The King of Jordan was also the first to propose the establishment of an “Arab NATO” toward the end of the Syrian crisis, aimed at confronting Iran and Shiite resistance.

🔻 There has also been extensive effort to portray the Jordanian royal family as an alternative or false messianic figure, based on the claim that the Jordanian royal family is descended from Imam Hasan.

🔻 Yasin Ajlouni, described as one of the court-appointed religious scholars of Jordan, states:

“In the near future, we will witness the return of the Hashemite Caliphate, and the conquest of Jerusalem and its liberation from the Jews at the hands of the King of Jordan.” [2]

🔴 Is the King of Jordan Descended from Imam Hasan?

✍️ Mostafa Amiri

🔻 The image shows the genealogical tree of the Jordanian royal family, which claims descent from the Banu Hashim and the progeny of the Prophet Muhammad, with the lineage of the family ultimately tracing back to Imam Hasan.

Source: The official website of the Jordanian Royal Court (link).

▪️ I wonder why, despite the large number of Shiite scholars, no one has so far undertaken a serious investigation to determine whether the Jordanian royal family's genealogy is authentic or fabricated.

▪️ On this matter, an investigation and inquiry should be directed to Seyyed Mehdi Rajaei, a prominent expert in genealogy (ʿilm al-ansāb) and the head of the Research Institute of the Sayyids in Qom. He was a student of Ayatollah Marashi Najafi, the renowned genealogist.

🔴 The Answered Prayer of the Martyr Leader of the Revolution for the Noble Leader of the Revolution

❇️ The Martyr Leader of the Revolution, in a handwritten dedication on the occasion of presenting the book Fara’id al-Usul to Ayatollah Sayyid Mojtaba Khamenei, wrote:

“I have presented this valuable work to my dear beloved, Mojtaba Hosseini, the apple of my eye. I pray that God may grant Islam and the Muslims benefit through him, guide him, make his steps firm and steadfast, and protect him from every kind of error and misstep in word and deed.”


📝 P.S.

The expression “ʿAsamahu Allah min al-khaṭaʾ wa’l-zalal” (“May God protect him from error and misstep”) in this dedication may allude to a noble narration attributed to Imam al-Rida (peace be upon him):

When God chooses a servant to administer the affairs of His servants, He grants him expansion of the heart, causes springs of wisdom to flow within him, and teaches him His knowledge through divine inspiration—so that he is never left without an answer to any question or inquiry, nor does he become lost concerning truth and reality. And because he receives divine assistance and support, he is protected from error, misstep, and wrongful conduct.

▪️ The Yamani is “the most rightly guided of the banners,” and of course, it is not necessarily required that he be from Yemen.

▪️ He may originally be Yemeni, but be in Iraq.

▪️ The battle between the Yamani and the Sufyani takes place in Iraq.

✅ Postscript:

🔻 Regarding the location of the Yamani’s uprising, there are different views. The third view is a synthesis of these perspectives and will be explained in the next post.
