Uğur Dündar: To understand ISIS we should know their aims and the hadiths

In his interviews, Mr. Adnan Oktar is saying from the beginning of the acts of ISIS that the rise of ISIS with their black banners are the signs of Hazrat Mahdi(as) heralded in the hadiths of our Prophet(sav).

After Mr. Oktar’s explanations, some people from different groups also made same explanations by giving examples from the hadiths. Uğur Dündar also wrote in his column that to understand ISIS, we should know their aims and the hadiths and he gave examples from the signs of Doomsday.

ADNAN OKTAR: Our Prophet (sav) says about the gang that showed up in Syria and Iraq that, ‘...they will establish a state’. And now they are establishing a state. ‘They are the people of a state’. ‘They will have their own nicknames’. For example, the name of the man is Ebu Turab, they don’t use their own names really. For example, Ebu Turab is one of the leaders of ISIS who has written on Twitter that they will destroy the Kaaba. Our Prophet (saas) says about ISIS that, ‘...their hair will be droopy like the hair of a woman’. So, it their hair will not be tidied. And all the ISIS members are like that. Not only one, two, three or four of the hadiths are congruent, but many of them are. Now, he is saying that, ‘...they are terrorists’. At that time, there will be terrorists all around the world, anyway. The world shake with terror, the antichrist will dominate. The one who says ‘I am a Muslim’ will terrorize, and the one who says, ‘I am not going to be a Muslim’ will terrorize. Of course there will be ones who will stay away from terror. But terror will cover the whole world. So, this gang which is mentioned in the hadith will of course terrorize. But the Prophet (saas) doesn’t speak English, he speaks Arabic. He says, ‘There will be violence, there will be bloodshed, they will kill the people, they will kill tens of thousands of people’. So what does that mean? Isn’t that terror? ‘But at the end, they will obey Hazrat Mahdi(as)’. This is very important. For example; our Prophet (saas) says, ‘They will act swiftly’(al-Ghaybah Nomani, p. 327). He says, ‘They will seize Kufa and Basra in one night’ (Qitab al-Haft al-Sharif, p.174). And it is also true that they act very swiftly. He says, ‘The cities they enter will almost be presented to them’. ‘Once something is not presented to them, they will gain a victory by waging war and what they desire will be presented to them’ (Meclisi, Bihar al-Anwar, v.51, p.87). The cities are immediately presented to them. They accept that immediately. ‘His (the commander of those with black banners) soldiers’ hair and moustache will be very long, their clothes are black and they are the men of those with black banners (al-Ghaybah Nomani, p.303) Isn’t that very clear? ‘They will massacre them (those opposing them) without making any differentiation. (al-Ghaybah Nomani, p.303) So, this is terror. ‘Those with black banners, will come down to Kufa…’(Hadith from the Compilation of Jalâleddin Suyuti, Ahir Zamân Mehdisinin Alametleri, p.61, hadith no. 7.12) Jalâleddin Suyuti says that.  And they already came down to Kufa. ‘A great war occurs. Ultimately the black banners gain victory. The forces of Sufyan run away. Then people will start to ask for Mahdi and look for him’ (Hadith from the Compilation of Jalâleddin Suyuti, The Portents of the Mahdi of the End Times, p.61, hadith no. 7.26). That means that they are not happy with these men. He says, ‘They will come under the obedience of Mahdi’ (Imam Suyuti). But they won’t accept it and GRANT IT TO MAHDI (AS) WHO IS FROM MY LINEAGE…(Mejlisi, Bihar al-Anwar, v.51, p.87) Hz. Ali(ra) is saying, ‘When you see the black banners you hold the ground you are standing on tightly’. And don’t leave it. ‘Do not move your hands and feet’. Do not fight with those men, do not resist. What we are saying? We are saying the same thing.

ADNAN OKTAR: As told by Nuaym bin Hammad, our Prophet(sav) said, ‘Black banners of Ben-i Abbas appear’. So, black banners from Arabs will appear. ‘Again from the East’, that means the Middle East. ‘This time a smaller group with black banners will appear and they will fight against a man from the lineage of Abu Sufyan. Who is Sufyan? Hafez al- Assad. From the lineage of him, they will fight against Bashar al-Assad. How clear. ‘They will come under the obedience of Mahdi’. At the end they become connected to Mahdi. Otherwise, if they stay the master of their own power, than that would destroy the world. But because they will come under the obedience of Mahdi, there would be no problems. First Al-Qaeda’s big black banners showed up. Big black banners. And now, a smaller group; ‘...again from the East, this time a smaller group with black banners will appear, and they will fight against a man from the lineage of Abu Sufyan’. And now this is happening. ‘They will come under the obedience of Mahdi’. I said everything is connected to Hazrat Mahdi, but they pretended not to understand. Our Prophet (saas) says, ‘After these three signs, wait for the coming of Imam Mahdi’. They are asking our Prophet: ‘What are these signs?’ ‘The conflict between Syrians.’ Most of the groups have conflicts. ‘… and after that the appearance of the black banners and fear in Ramadan’. How many days are left to Ramadan? Isn’t that true? It is true. Muhbir-i Sadık.

Uğur Dündar also wrote in his column that to understand ISIS, we should know their aims and the hadiths, and he continued as follows; ‘According to a hadith, when  doomsday is close, the river Euphrates will dry up and a mountain of gold will be unveiled because of the changes on the river basin. There will be fighting between the people who want to have them. The Anatolian land where the river Euphrates begins and the cities of Ayn al-Arab, Cerablus and Rakka, where it enters Syria, are the most important regions ISIS should capture. Rakka and Cerablus were invaded in 2013. Rakka became the capital of the Islamic State. Now there is Kobani next. And also according to Baghdadi, if these targeted places are not captured, then the establishment of the Islamic State wouldn’t be completed, doomsday wouldn’t come, Mahdi wouldn’t come, and the words of Allah and our beloved Prophet (sav) wouldn’t be proved.’
