in 1981 (Hijri 1401) on the 15th day of Ramadan, and a solar
eclipse on the 29th day of the month. There was a "second"
lunar eclipse in 1982 (Hijri 1402) on the 14th day of
Ramadan, and a solar eclipse on the 28th day of the month.
It is also particularly significant that in that particular
instance, there was a full lunar eclipse in the middle of
Ramadan, a most striking prophecy.
The occurrence of these incidents during the same pe-
riod coinciding with the signs of Hazrat Mahdi's (as) emer-
gence, and their miraculous recurrence at the onset of the
Islamic 1400s for two consecutive years (1401-02) makes it
possible for these events to be the signs foretold in the ha-
diths.
Moreover, an astoundingly similar eclipse occurred in
the years 2002 and 2003.
