mahdaviyat

Hujjat al-Islam Ja’fari explains:

How to distinguish Imam al-Mahdi from false claimants?

“Mahdawiyah (Messianism) is an issue of belief and perspective and the future reappearance of Imam al-Mahdi is based on prophetic narrations and is a divine promise to the believers and a emblem of the correct path,” he said.
