Imam Mahdi رَضِیَ اللہُ تَعَالٰی عَنْہُ is to appear on the scene at a time when Islam vanishes from everywhere and becomes confined within the limits of Hijaaz (Arabia) Only. the world will then be full of infidels. In such a compelling and humiliating situation, the Saints (Awliya) رَضِیَ اللہُ تَعَالٰی عَنْہُ and all the righteous and Allah-Fearing people will leave their respective countries for refuge at the holy cities of Makkah 'the Ennobled' and Madinah 'the Illuminated'.
During the month of Ramadan, Imam Mahdi رَضِیَ اللہُ تَعَالٰی عَنْہُ will be amongst the people performing Tawaaf around the Holy Ka'bah. The Saints and pious Muslims will recognize him and immediately beseech him to accept their allegiance. Imam Mahdi رَضِیَ اللہُ تَعَالٰی عَنْہُ will first decline their request but will ultimately comply in following a commanding voice from the Unseen, "He is Mahdi, the Khalifah (vicegerent) of Allah (عَزَّوَجَلَّ). Listen to what he says and follow him." All will then proclaim their faith and allegiance to Imam Mahdi رَضِیَ اللہُ تَعَالٰی عَنْہُ who will lead them to Shaam (Syria).
