According to Abdullah bin Abbas' account, related in Daylami's Firdaws, the Messenger of Allah (saas) said, "The Mahdi is a handsome young man from the people of paradise."

..It is narrated from Anas ibn Malik (ra) that: I heard the Messenger of Allah (saas) say: We are the senior ones of the people of Paradise, the children of Abdulmuttalib. Me, Hamza, Ali, Jaffar, Hasan, Hussein and the Mahdi.
