Recently returned from N. Cyprus May 07 where Maulana Sheikh Nazim al-Haqqani is still preparing to be succeeded by al Mahdi who will prepare for the Descent of Jesus Christ on the Western Minaret at the Ummayyad Mosque at Damascus. Sheikh Nazim is now 85 years old so one feels these events could be with us soon and as I have said a Second Coming would be opportune just as Muhammad's was and Christ's and Moses, Joseph etc. There appears to be required a particular concatenation of circumstances for the miraculous to occur and with the rampant materialism of the West and the problems that Muslims and Christians face in understanding eachother maybe the time is nearly right, maybe.
