abjad calculation of the clause "will remain in truth" (when the gemina-
tion mark is counted) gives 1506 (2082); it indicates until that date it will
continue its work of enlightenment evidently and obviously, and maybe

victoriously; then until 1542 (2117) in secrecy and defeat. The abjad cal-
culation of the clause "until Allah's command" (when the gemination
mark is counted) suggests that THE JUDGMENT DAY WILL BEFALL
the unbeliever in 1545 (2120). (Kastamonu Addendum, p. 33)
The great Sunni scholar Al-Barzanji states that the life span of the
ummah will not exceed the year 1500 (Islamic calendar). (Allah knows
the truth.)
THE LIFE OF THIS COMMUNITY WILL EXCEED 1000 YEARS,
YET BE LIMITED TO 1500 YEARS... (Al-Barzanji, Al-Isha'ah li-ashrat al-
sa'ah, p. 299)
Suyuti's statement made on the basis of the hadith handed down
from our Prophet (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) is also that
the life of the Ummah will not go past the year 1500:

THE LIFE OF MY COMMUNITY WILL NOT EXCEED 1500 YEARS.
(Jalaladdin As-Suyuti, Al-Kashf 'an Mujawazat Hazihi al-Ummah al-Alf;
As-Suyuti, Al-Hawi Lil-Fatawi, 2/248; Ismail Haqqi al-Burusawi, Tafsir
Ruh al-Bayan 4/262; Ahmad ibn Hanbal, Kitab al-`Ilal, p. 89)
As is clear from the hadiths of our Prophet (may Allah bless him
and grant him peace) and statements by great Islamic scholars, the Hijri
1400s we are living in are the age of the coming of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh).
The Prophet Jesus (pbuh) will return to Earth during this century,
Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) will appear, and the moral values of Islam will
rule the world.
