Does the Islamic Ummah await the Rightly Guided Caliphate, and will the Awaited Mahdi come from Jerusalem and its environs?
The Muslim nation must strive to achieve victory and empowerment for the religion by following the means to do so: sincere faith, military preparedness, loyalty to believers and enmity towards disbelievers, patience in the face of enemies' plots, and unity, avoiding disunity. The sum of all this is returning to the Qur'an and Sunnah according to the understanding of the Salaf of the Ummah. The Mahdi will emerge from the East, so pledge allegiance to him, even if you have to crawl over snow.
