Signs of the advent of Imam al-Mahdi (a)

The Shia narrative proclaims that such cosmic upheavals are interwoven with the fabric of human morality and societal conduct. The balance of the cosmos is viewed as intricately linked to the spiritual state of humanity. Thus, the climactic shifts in the celestial realm can be interpreted as God’s call for humanity to prepare for the Mahdi’s just rule.

Prophetic Signs

Among the most compelling signs of the Mahdi’s arrival are prophetic traditions that comprise specific events and personalities whose roles crystallize the timeline of eschatological events. These include the reappearance of significant figures from Islamic history who will align with the Mahdi in his endeavors. The return of Isa (Jesus), alongside the Mahdi, illustrates the deep interconnection between Islamic and Christian eschatologies and demonstrates a unifying pursuit of truth and justice.
