Pre-Reappearance Iran:

Iranians will make two attempts to restore their right; then they will get ready to fight the enemy in the land of Palestine.

۱. Among the pre-reappearance events and incidents in the view of Sunni and Shia schools, is the uprising that takes place by the people of the east to facilitate and hasten the process of reappearance.

۲. The authentic Hadith on the people of the east’s revolution in the book al-Ghayba by al-Nu’mani:

۳. A group will rise (uprising and revolution) from the east; they demand their due right from the enemy, yet it is not granted to them. Once again, they demand it from the enemy, yet they are denied again, at this point they hang their swords from their shoulders (a metaphor for military-strength showoff or attacking the enemy); thus they will be offered what they had demanded but they (Iranians) refuse to take it this time and they rise and hand over the flag of their government to the Imam al-Mahdi. Those killed in this movement are martyrs and let it be known, if I were at that time, I would have certainly reserved myself for Imam al-Mahdi. (Source: al-Nu’mani, al-Ghayba p.۲۷۳)

۴. The phrase “they rise from the east:” technically, rising means uprising, revolution and endeavor to establish a government, and since this movement is regarded as just and rightful (hence the phrase: those killed in this movement are martyrs), uprising and revolution against an unjust ruler fits such definition very clearly.

۵. “the people from the East:” according to both Shia and Sunni Hadith, the pre-reappearance flags of the east that pave the way for Imam al-Mahdi’s rule have three very important characteristics, namely: being Twelver Shia, belief in the Imamate of the twelfth Imam (hence the phrase “[they will] hand over the flag of their government to the Imam al-Mahdi); and being Iranians (the kin of Salman) and having the goal of freeing Palestine.

۶. “[D]emanding their due right:” since it is said they first demand their right and then start a military phase, so it means they demand their right that had previously been denied by the enemy. (It was the enemy who first denied them their right.)

۷. And who are the ones in the opposite front? Clear and obvious, the enemies of Islam, Shia and the twelfth Imam’s rule, that is the wicked triangle alliance of “the Western bullying powers, the Zionist regime and their regional Arab allies.” Especially the Zionists and their western supporters will make the arrogant front against the revolution/resistance from the east, and refuse to give Iranians’ their due right.

۸. The phase of “demanding the right;” this has two stages in which Iranians demand their right through negotiations, after these two stages and once they are disappointed to get their right that way, they take a different measure in the third step, that is, they use military strength to get their right.

۹. The stage of “swords;” once they realize their enemies are not going to give them their right, Iranians will demand their right for the third time, not through negotiations, but military strength.

۱۰. Then, and after some incidents, the enemies will have no other choice but to recognize Iranians’ right; surprisingly, although they insisted on taking their right in the two previous phases, this time Iranians will refuse to accept it.

۱۱. The phase of “they rise;” in contrast, they get ready for a comprehensive and fateful battle with the enemies –according to the verses of the chapter of Isra in Qur’an- near Palestine; and based on Qur’an’s prophecies in the beginning verses of the chapter Rome, and by taking into account the phrase “they will fight and prevail,” the Shia pivot with Iranian leadership will prevail in the future battle with the Zionist regime before the reappearance. However, these developments will not be very long before the reappearance.

۱۲. It seems the time of war between Shia and the enemy will be after “chaos in Rome” and before the presence of “Roman outlaws.”

۱۳. The phrase “they only hand their flag to Imam al-Mahdi” obviously indicates that the fall of Iranians’ government before the reappearance is a delusional and disturbed fantasy that will never be realized and the Iranian revolution will meet the global rule of Imam al-Mahdi

۱۴. But the decisive question remains, if this is the age of reappearance, which phase are we currently in? The phase of “they hang their sword from their shoulders,” or the phase of “they are offered their right?”
