قادة المهدي خير الناس، أهل نصرته وبيعته من أهل كوفان واليمن، وأبدال الشام، مقدمته جبريل، وساقته ميكائيل، محبوب في الخلائق، يطفئ الله تعالى الفتنة العمياء، وتأمن الأرض، حتى إن المرأة لتحج في خمس نسوة ما معهن رجل، لا تتقي شيئا إلا الله، تعطي الأرض زكاتها، والسماء بركتها
The leaders of the Mahdi are the best of people. The people who supported him and pledged allegiance to him were from the people of Kufan and Yemen, and the Abdal of the Sham (Greater Syria). His leader was Gabriel, and his leader was Michael. He is beloved among creation. Allah Almighty will extinguish blind strife, and the earth will be secure, so much so that a woman will perform Hajj with five women who do not have a man with her. She does not fear anything except Allah. She gives the earth her alms, and the sky her blessing.
