We are on the threshold of the Caliphate on the Platform of the Prophet
Nu'man ibn Bashir (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said: "Prophethood will be among you for as long as Allah wills it to be, then Allah will lift it if He wills to lift it, then it will be a caliphate on the platform of prophethood, so it will be for as long as Allah wills it to be, then He will lift it if He wills to lift it, then it will be a forced monarchy, so it will be for as long as Allah wills it to be, then He will lift it if He wills to lift it, then it will be a caliphate on the platform of prophethood" and he fell silent. Narrated by Ahmad, which is good
The history of the Islamic Ummah is divided into five stages, as mentioned by the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, in this hadith:
1- Prophethood (Prophetic Era)
2- Caliphate on the Platform of Prophethood (the era of the Rashidun Caliphs)
3- A biting king (from the beginning of the Umayyad Caliphate until the end of the Ottoman Caliphate)
4- A compulsory monarch (from the era of Kemal Ataturk, who abolished the Ottoman Caliphate until now)
5- Caliphate on the Platform of the Prophet
The Islamic Ummah has so far lived through four of the stages mentioned by the Prophet (peace be upon him), leaving only the last stage, after which he is silent, which indicates the end of the Islamic Ummah and the Day of Judgement.
It is known that in every transition between one of these stages, the Ummah is hit by a severe sedition that makes it move from one stage to another.
Upon the death of the Prophet, the Ummah transitioned to the Caliphate on the Platform of Prophethood with Abu Bakr al-Siddiq's assumption of the Caliphate and the subsequent apostasy sedition and apostasy of most of the Arabian Peninsula from Islam, with the exception of Medina, Mecca and Taif, and the subsequent wars of apostasy.
The Caliphate on the Platform of Prophethood was also transferred to the Al-Malik Al-Adwad after the Great Fitna among the honourable Companions, which ended with the year of the congregation when Muawiya assumed the Caliphate and the subsequent succession to the Ottoman Caliphate.
It was also the transition of the abrogated king to algebraic rule after the Arab Revolt and its alliance with the West against the Ottoman Caliphate, which ended with the defeat of the Ottoman Caliphate until the Caliphate was finally abolished by Mustafa Kemal Atatürk
Now we are on the threshold of the end of forced rule and what we are seeing now is the Dahimah Fitnah, in which the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "Then there will be a Dahimah Fitnah, and whenever it is said that it has ceased, it will continue until there is no house left in Arabia except that it is fought in, not knowing whether it is fighting for right or for wrong, and they will remain so until they are divided into two factions: One of faith in which there is no hypocrisy and the other of hypocrisy in which there is no faith.) The hadith is clear and applies to our situation now. When this sedition ends and the Ummah gathers on the Caliphate on the Platform of Prophethood, the Dajjal will appear, followed by his killing by our master Jesus, peace be upon him, and then the continuation of the Caliphate on the Platform of Prophethood until the resurrection of the Hour, and God knows best.
This is my personal analysis of the situation we are in, and I could be wrong or right, and God knows best.
We ask Allah to keep us steadfast in the truth until we die.
