What is the sect of the Prophet of Islam Sayyadi Rasul Allah (sm)???? What is the sect of first 4 righteous Caliphs?? Shia or Sunni??

Every army fighting in ME is relying on religious narrative - Christian/Jewish Zionists waiting for Messiah, Shias & Sunnis for Mehdi..

You cannot define this latest Crusade in simple narrative - It has deep religious roots but oil, gas, pipelines & land also tag along!
The tragedy is that a bloody Shia-Sunni sectarian war is raging on expected "Mehdi" but no one knows his whereabouts or time of arrival. And when the Mehdi will come eventually, still Shias & Sunnis will fight yet again, as both expect him to be from their sect. He wont be :-)

In this frenzied, fanatic mindset of extreme positions, both Shias & Sunni hardliners fail to see that the status of Mehdi is above sect!

Shias will fight against Iman Mehdi. Yes, they will. Because he will NOT be a typical Shia of today. Same crisis will be faced by Sunnis too.

As far as Khawarij are concerned, they are neither Shias NOT Sunnis. ISIS, TTP are NOT Sunnis. But these Khawarij benefit in this sect war. Khawarij & Jews are both enemies of Shias & Sunnis. But both sects are exhausting their energies in fighting each other.This is real tragedy.

Iqbal is the only Muslim thinker, visionary who have properly understood the complex soul of the phenomenon of Mehdi. Everyone else is confused. Iqbal's understanding of "Mehdi" is stunning, dynamic, full of action, struggle & clarity of vision. It is NOT confused, vague or foggy. You can imagine the confusion within Shia doctrine of Mehdi that once Shias kept horses ready outside a cave for 300 years, waiting for him. Even now, the war frenzy in Syria & Yemen has again ignited the euphoria in Shias that the promised Mehdi is about to emerge, creating chaos.
"The one who is inspired first by God to lead the revival of the Ummah in darkest of times against heaviest of odds,will be the Mehdi" Iqbal

According to Iqbal, instead of waiting for the promised Mehdi, one should rise and become the "Mehdi" of the time to revive the dead Ummah. Like the promised day of judgement, it will come indeed, but for a man, his day of judgement is his death for which he must act NOW.

Iqbal has drawn his concept of "Mehdi" from the Hadees of the Prophet, where the first rightly guided caliphs have also been called "Mehdis"
