Page 37 - Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) is a Descendant of the Prophet Abraham (pbuh)

The line of the Prophet Abraham (pbuh) continued with his two
sons, the Prophets Ishmael and Isaac (peace be upon them). Throughout
the course of history, a large number of Prophets descended from the
Prophet Isaac (pbuh) came to the Israelites: the Prophets Jacob, Joseph,
Moses, Aaron, Jonah, Job, Elijah, David, Solomon, Zaccariah, John and Je-
sus (peace be upon them). Descended from the line of the Prophet Ish-
mael (pbuh) are the Prophet of Islam, Muhammad (may Allah bless him
and grant him peace), teachers from his line and finally the Imam
Muhammad al-Mahdi (pbuh). In addition, Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) comes
from a line stretching back as far as the Prophet David (pbuh).
