Translated by: Haidar Mazen
This research examines the progeny of Prophet Muhammad for the purpose of knowing The Mahdi. The research cites a lot of textual evidence (recorded by Muslims from all sects) that reveals the true progeny of The Prophet. This research defines this vocabulary (al-Etra) that the offspring of Prophet Muhammad is his family from the first Imam، The Commander of the Faithful (Ali bin Abi-Talib) to the last Imam، Muhammad al-Mahdi.
The research highlights much of what senior Muslim scholars have said praising each member of this progeny. By citing an ample number of texts by Sunni Muslim scholars، the research، finally، proves the birth of The Mahdi and addresses a number of genealogists’ sayings that confirm his birth.
