ADNAN OKTAR: Our Prophet (saas) says; "Some people from the East will come out and pave the way for Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh)"  in page 21 in the Portents of the Awaited Mahdi (pbuh). Who are those? Bediuzzaman and his followers.  What does he say? He says; "I am a vanguard soldier of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh)" He says he is the pioneer soldier of him. "They will come in spring, I came in winter," he says. "I am one of his rearguards who pave the way for him," he says.  Has this hadith been realized exactly as it is?

OKTAR BABUNA:Yes it has Master.

ADNAN OKTAR: It has.. "Flags will come out from Khorasan, they will come as far as Jerusalem," says our Prophet (saas). So it means that the last place of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) will be Jerusalem. Jerusalem is defined as the last point. Who will help him? People from Khorasan;  Turks.   

OKTAR BABUNA: Insha'Allah, Master.

ADNAN OKTAR: For instance, if I were to say; people from Ankara will help Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh). What would you understand?

OKTAR BABUNA: That the Turks will help.

ADNAN OKTAR:  Turks.. That is exactly the same. At that time, Khorasan was the homeland of Turks, they had not yet come to Anatolia then. Our Prophet (saas) mentions their homeland at the time. They had not yet come to Anatolia at that time. He mentions those people. I mean he says that they will come from amongst the Turkish people. You know that our forebears came here from Khorasan; they came to Turkey, to Anatolia, insha'Allah. By referring to our forebears at that time, he [our Prophet (saas)] says that they [the helpers of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh)] will be from amongst the Turkish people.
