The incident of Juhayman Juhaymaan al-Utaibi and his followers, some of whom were students of the Islamic University in Madeenah, started a dawah movement and established various study circles - but their extremist views led them to reject the legitimacy of their government and they began to adopt khawarij-like views. In their enthusiasm, they broke away from the society and started to dwell in the desert where they formed a cult that drew many followers from the Arabian Peninsula and beyond. From those who joined them was a student of the Islamic university, Muhammad ibn Abdullah al-Qahtani, about whom many in Juhaymaan’s group dreamt that he was the awaited Mahdi. This led them to declare al-Qahtani as the Mahdi. Eventually, this group schemed to take over al-Masjid al- Haraam and in the 1980’s they smuggled weapons and explosive into the Haraam concealed in funerals. - 39 -
After Fajr, they began their assault by killing some security guards, locking the gates of the Haraam and taking the worshipers inside as hostages. Al-Qahtani was then declared the Mahdi and the process of Bay’ah (the oath of allegiance) at his hands was initiated. When all efforts to end the crisis were exhausted, intense fighting took place, which led to the death of al-Qahtani following which Juhayman and his followers surrendered to the security forces after two weeks. As for the True Awaited Mahdi, mentioned in the authentic Sunnah, then he will emerge at the end of time before Jesus as a sign of the closeness of the Day of Judgment. The Prophet plainly described the Mahdi as being a regular Muslim from amongst his descendants who will flee from al-Medina to Makkah, his name will be the same as the name of Prophet Muhammad (i.e., Muhammad Ibn Abdullah). He will resemble the Prophet in behavior but not in looks - he will have a high forehead and a hooked nose. People will give him the Bay’ah (the oath of allegiance) in Makkah between al-Rukn and al-Maqam. An army will be sent against him from Syria but Allah will protect the Mahdi and cause the army to be swallowed up in the desert between Makkah and Medina. Every believer will be obliged to support the Mahdi to the extent that Allah’s Messenger said, “…If any of you lives to see this (i.e. the appearance of Mahdi), you should go to him even if you have to crawl across ice.” The Mahdi will rule over the world for seven years and then die. During his rule, he will fill the earth with justice and fairness just as it was filled with injustice and oppression before. - 40 -
