The Savior in Islam
The Psalms, the Torah, the Bible…
The only religion whose divine teachings has not been changed and distorted is "Islam." The promised person and savior of Islam for Shiites and Sunnis is called #Mahdi. He is best known as Mahdi.
In this regard, Imam Baqir said: “Rightly he is called the “Mahdi”, because he is led to a secret knowledge.” He will bring the Torah and other Divine books from a cave in Antioch.
The book of “Al Ghaybah”, p. 237; Ilal al-sharayi , vol. 1, p. 161
Imam Hussain (PBUH) is highly regarded by Muslims and many non-Muslims because he refused to pledge allegiance to Yazid the Umayyad caliph, because he considered the rule of the Umayyads unjust. As a consequence, he left Medina, his home town, and traveled to Mecca. There, the people of Kufa sent letters to him, asking his help. So he traveled toward Kufa. At Karbala his caravan was intercepted by Yazid’s army. He was killed and beheaded in the Battle of Karbala in 680 (61 AH) by Shimr Ibn Thil-Jawshan, along with most of his family and companions. The annual memorial for him, his family, his children and his companions is called Ashura (tenth day of the month Muharram) and is a day of mourning for Muslims and many non-Muslims.

Imam Reza (PBUH) (8th Imam of Shia, from the descendant of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)) has said, in the course of a Hadith, “The Imam after me is my son, Muhammad (Imam Muhammad Jawad), and after him his son Ali (Imam Ali Hadi), and after Ali his son, Hassan (Imam Hassan Askari), and after Hassan his son Hujjat Al-Qa’im (the risen reason), who is awaited during his occultation and obeyed during his manifestation. If there remain from the life of the world but a single day, Allah (God) will extend that day until he becomes manifest, and fill the world with justice in the same way that it had been filled with iniquity. But when? As for news of the hour, verily my father told me, having heard it from his father who heard it from his father who heard it from his ancestors who heard it from Imam Ali (PBUH), that it was asked of the Holy Prophet, “Oh Prophet of Allah, when will the “Qa’im” (the Risen) who is from thy family appear?” He said, “His case is unknown like the Resurrection day. He will manifest it at its proper time. It is significant in the heavens and the earth. It cometh not to you save unawares”
(Holy Quran, Surah Al-A’raf, verse 187)
Jesus In The Quran
"Behold," the angels told Mary , "God has given you the glad news of the coming birth of a son whom He calls His Word , whose name will be Messiah , Jesus , son of Mary , who will be a man of honor in this life and the life to come , and who will be one of the ones nearest to God .
He will speak to the people while in his cradle and preach to them when he will be a man . He will be one of the righteous ones .
(Mary) said , "How can there be a son for me when no mortal has touched me ?" The angel replied , "That is how God creates whatever He wants . When He decides to do something He just orders it to exist and it comes into existence .“ God will give (Jesus) wisdom and teach him the Book , the Torah, and the Gospel . Sura / verse : AL-E-IMRAN 45_46_47_48
In Shia narrations it is prophesied that Imam Mahdi and Prophet Jesus (PBUT) will return together to reform the world. To know more refer to “the secrets of the Bible”, “Imam Mahdi (PBUH) in Other Religions”, “The Promised in Christianity“, “Ahl Al-Bayt promised in Gosple“
There are numerous Hadith (prophetic sayings) cited in Sunni and Shia sources from Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and his descendants (Ahl Al-Bayt) concerning the appearance of Imam Mahdi (PBUH), such as that he is of the progeny of the Prophet (PBUH) and that his appearance will enable human society to reach true perfection and the full realization of spiritual life. In addition, there are numerous other traditions concerning the fact that Imam Mahdi (PBUH) is the son of the eleventh descendant of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), Imam Hassan Askari (PBUH). They agree that after being born and undergoing a long occultation Imam Mahdi (PBUH) will appear again, filling with justice the world that has been corrupted by injustice and iniquity.
People’s lack of need
The holy Prophet Muhammad about the people’s abundance after the Reappearance says:
1- “ (Mahdi) gives an abundance of wealth among them so that a person who wants to give alms, gives some property to the people and says: "I do not need them" ”
Musnad Ahmad ibn Hanbal, vol. 2, p. 530
2-People will seek for someone to accept a gift from them, they will separate the Zakat of their wealth but they won’t find anyone to accept it because all the people will be needless out of God’s grace.”
Al-dhaam al Naseb, p. 230
The religion that shines after the Reappearance
The translation from a verse of the Quran: “Are they seeking a religion other than that of Allah, and to Him whosoever is in the heavens and the earth has submitted willingly and unwillingly…” [The Quran - Surah 3 - Verse 83]
Rifa'a said that he heard from Imam Sadiq that he said: “The interpretation of this verse is that when our Qa’im rises, there will be no land that the clause “There is no God but Allah, and Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah” has not been said there.”
Tafsir Noor al-Thaqalayn, vol.1, p. 362
The news of the birth of Imam Mahdi
The holy Prophet Muhammad and the Imams have informed us about the birth of a child from Imam Hassan Askari that will be out of sight after his birth. The statistics of collected sayings in the book of "Kamal al-Din" in this regard is as follows: 45 Hadiths from the Holy Messenger, 4 hadiths from Lady Zahra , 2 hadiths from Imam Hassan, 5 hadiths from Imam Hussein, 9 hadiths from Imam Sajjad, 17 hadiths from Imam Baqir, 57 hadiths by Imam Sadiq. Total narrations in “al-Kafi, Al-Ghayba, Kamal al-Din,…” books are more than thousand hadiths.
Blameworthy Opponents:
1- The first person who denied the birth of Imam Mahdi due to his ignorance of his birth was "Jafar" (Imam Mahdi’s uncle). He strongly prevented the circulation of his birth news!!
2- Muhammad Isaf Nashashibi says: “Imam Askari didn’t have any son or daughter.”
According to several sources of Shiites and Sunnis about his birth, not only are these words not accurate historically but also are they originating from bias.
Ayatollah Muhammad Baqer Irawani’s article - Journal of Entezar Mouood, No.5-Milad, collections of articles, page 45.
the occultation of Imam Mahdi (PBUH) is, divided into two parts: the first, the minor occultation (Ghaybat Sughra) which began in 872 and ended in 939, lasting about seventy years; the second, the major occultation which commenced in 939 and will continue as long as God wills it.
During the major occultation till the time of his reappearance, no one has been his special representative, and there will be no one in the future, and the people have the duty to refer to the Quran, Ahl al-Bayt’s Hadith and “Fuqaha” (Jurists), those excelling in knowledge of the shariah (Islamic laws), and the narration of Hadith who are specialized in the matters of the religion.
Believe in the reappearance of the expected Mahdi (PBUH) the universal reformer is not confined to the Shia Muslims. Other Islamic groups and even non-Islamic groups like the Jews and the Christians and some of the great world intellectual figures believe in the appearance of a great spiritual reformer.
