Black banners coming from the direction of Khurasan

Q: Below is a statement by a sincere friend of mine is it inconformity with what comes in the kitabs? “If you see the black banners coming from the direction of khurasan,then go to them,even if u have to crawl, because among them will be allah’s caliph the mahdi”.

A: Yes, this appears in the hadeeth and it refers to the time when Mahdi (Radhiyallahu anhu) will appear.

و عن ثوبان قال : قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم : ” إذا رأيتم الرايات السود قد جاءت من قبل خراسان فأتوها فإن فيها خليفة الله المهدي ” . رواه أحمد والبيهقي في ” دلائل النبوة ” (مشكاة المصابيح)
