Significant advancements in empirical sciences have intensified feelings of self-forgetfulness, emptiness, meaninglessness, stress, and loneliness in humans. As a result, individuals in our time more than any other time need a solid foundation for guidance. The belief in "Mahdism," which is a common belief among all Abrahamic religions and has a special prominence in Shia Islam, can serve as a strong and salvific foundation against cognitive, ethical, and psychological crises with utmost effectiveness. In this article, we delve into the various dimensions of this idea from the perspective of Quranic verses and Islamic narrations and its role in addressing various crises in modern society, as well as addressing some intellectual doubts rose against this idea. By referencing religious and rational sources, we will analyze and elucidate the Islamic perspective on the Mahdi and his revolutionary efforts.Modern humans desire peace, wisdom, and justice, which are lofty ideals. Based on historical texts and religious narrations, Imam Mahdi is a figure who will realize these ideals and overthrow the adversaries. Imam Mahdi will establish a government based on justice that will encompass the entire world. He will actualize the Quranic invitation: "Say, O! People of the Book come to a word that is equitable between us and you." (Quran, 3:64).Religious evidence indicates that Imam Mahdi establishes an ideal relationship among individuals and eliminates discord, oppression, and ignorance. He establishes a government based on kindness and mercy by actualizing the Quranic verse "The believers are brothers" (Quran, 49:10). There are over three thousand hadiths from the Prophet of Islam (PBUH) and the impeccable Imams specifically related to the topic of the Imam of the Time. These hadiths can be found in Shia and Sunni texts. It is noteworthy that many renowned Sunni scholars have published specialized books on the topic of the Imam Zaman (AS). Throughout history, the concept of anticipation and hope for a brighter future has been a common belief among nations and religions and will continue to be so. This outlook is intrinsic to humanity. However, the difference lies in the representative of civilization and the leader of global sovereignty. Within the framework of Shia thought, emphasis is placed on the honorable Imam who experiences the hardships of life like any other individual. He holds authority among the people and is a partner in their joys and sorrows. There are two distinct forms of anticipation. The first type is recognized as effective, empowering, and enduring anticipation, which can even be considered a form of selflessness and service to the truth. On the other hand, the second type of anticipation is deemed sinful, destructive, and paralyzing, ultimately leading to captivity.In the contemporary era, there is an increasing consensus that a global leader is necessary to address the multiple crises we are facing. This leader will have the ability to eradicate wars, conflicts, power abuse, colonialism, and other forms of injustice and inequality. However, it is essential to identify an individual with the necessary qualities to fulfill this important role. The global leader who will bear this immense responsibility must serve as a role model.Critics of Shiism believe that according to the beliefs of this school of thought, the hidden Imam must now have lived for almost twelve centuries, which is impossible for any human being. In response, it must be clarified that this criticism is merely based on the improbability of such a scenario, not its impossibility. In fact, a lifespan of this length or even longer is usually impossible, but not logically impossible. However, those who delve into the hadiths of the Prophet of Islam and the impeccable Imams find that they describe this life as miraculous. A miracle is by no means impossible, and it cannot be refuted with scientific arguments. Furthermore, it is strange that these criticisms arise from the People of the Book, including Jews, Christians, and some Muslims, as they themselves accept the miracles of the prophets of God based on their holy scriptures.According to the Islamic traditions and Quranic verses, it can be concluded that Imam Mahdi will appear to restore the position of the heavenly book and the teachings of the Prophet of Islam. He will establish global justice and renew the spiritual essence of the religious community. These are issues that no prophet has succeeded in fully realizing. The real life of the book and tradition lies in implementing global justice. The ultimate goal and purpose of God in creation will be fully realized through the most selfless servants, reformers, and devoted followers of the Prophet of Islam.Imam Mahdi will begin his mission by inviting people to a healthy and civilized life through faith. People worldwide, tired of the trials and tribulations of life and disillusioned with the emptiness of human ideologies, will respond eagerly and wholeheartedly to the call of Mahdi and strive to develop their mental powers and deepen their religious knowledge. Therefore, with determined resolve, leadership, and steadfast support from his loyal followers, Mahdi is poised to create a fundamental framework for a global governing body that upholds justice. The ultimate goal of Islam is to establish global justice (Quran, 57:25). God's definitive promise of victory guarantees the completion of Islam's historical philosophy, especially the triumph of the oppressed: "We wanted to bestow favor upon those who were oppressed in the land and make them leaders and inheritors." (Quran, 28:5) Belief in the Mahdi not only guarantees a hopeful outlook on the future of the world and humanity but also signifies a fundamental progress towards intellectual growth and maturity

Family, always, everywhere and in all human societies, has been considered as the basic social institution and community infrastructure and the source of culture, civilization and human history. Addressing this fundamental and sacred structure, and supporting and guiding it towards its rightful place, has always modified the large family of humans, whereas human negligence regarding this concept leads humans away from real life and results in falling into ruin and destruction. People affect each other in their lives, in a family, both parents and children are effective in shaping each other’s characters and temperaments. The social environment, community, media, press and all members present at the scene of the community in relation to the individual have an effect on the development of one’s mood and character. In short, this flow is evident in all aspects of human life, however, it may be concealed in many cases. Many factors contribute to the vitality of family bonds, the most important of which are discussed in this paper; Suitable familial relations, discipline, the spirit of counseling, patience and persistence in life, forgiveness, the rule of honesty in the family, avoiding suspicion, the pest of envy, confidentiality and loyalty, peace and opposition of arrogance, patience, fear of divine retribution, avoiding extremes, humility, avoiding waste and kindness to parents, are all factors which reinforce families. This paper reviews the factors strengthening the family in Islamic culture, using resources of Islam and Islamic scholars.

Allah (God) is in the view of the Qur’an the Almighty above everything and anything who is never limited in any of his names. His being is far from any confinement, limit, and condition, and describing Him with numerable oneness and plurality, i.e. oneness and plurality in terms of numbers, is never possible, which is stated in the Holy Qur’an. The reason is that the one whose oneness is in terms of numbers is necessarily confined and conditioned by limits of time and space and probably by many other limits, and will necessarily be conditioned and affected by actions of another being who is aware of him. In the view of the Qur’an, God is far above being affected or conditioned by anything. This does not however imply that human thought is absolutely incapable of knowing God, which is what Sceptics claim. As understood from the Divine Wisdom and Revelation, human thought is unable to reach in its intellectual course to a full understanding of God’s names, including His Oneness (Tawhīd). However, although incapable of reaching a full understanding, the human thought is capable of reaching a limited understanding. In other words, the human is surely capable of knowing God and His names within the limits of his human power of thought and understanding, though not as would suit His Glory, Majesty and Splendour.This paper aims to give an interpretation of two names of God, the One (‘Ahad’) and the Unique (Wāhid), and by way of this interpretation concludes that God is One in His very essence, and His Oneness is His very being and not an attribute assigned to Him.Other forms of oneness and unity, including numerable oneness, therefore never suit God.

Modern man, especially modern youth, suffers from numerous moral and psychological problems due to cultural invasionsand secular propaganda. These problems are due to the fact that, man, in the modern era, has not understood his human truth or has ignored it and has forgotten his source of peace which is God and His teachings. The only way out of these problems is to return to the true religion, to understand it and to put its teachings into practice. Islam, as the last and the most comprehensive religion, can play a pivotal role in educating man and saving him from further crises. The teenage years and youth are decisive and critical in shaping man’s personality. To make the best use of his youth, man should turn to a knowledgeable guide who knows the way; someone who is devoid of error and mistakes and the best such guide is the holy Qur’an and the correct traditions of the immaculate Imams (PBUT). What lays the foundation and paves the way forany progress and refinement is correct knowledge and understanding. It is education that guarantees such knowledge and understanding and can reinforce self discipline. The most effective and in fact the sole factor in healing moral and psychological problems is thus following religious teachings and practicing them sincerely. Therefore, the aim of Islamic education is educating Islamic individuals. This paper, with reference to the holy Qur'an, the traditions and documented proofs, examines the above-mentioned issues.

Existence is the starting point for proving the world being created. Visible creatures in the world are possible which are the effect of these changes, and for all there must be a cause. Since God is the primary existence and absolute perfection, it is necessarily the cause of everything that exists. Theologians call this "ex-nihilo". In their views, whether the world is temporal or eternal, it has been created by God. The world has been created accrording to the science of God which is, therefore, a free Act. In addition, the only end through which we can imagine the will of God is his special existence. Hence, creation is God's grace. The casual and independent creation are specific to God, because only God is existence and his essence is the same. Theologians in response to the question of If God has created the world based on perfection where the evil originates from state that evil can not basically be found in the world, and what is considered as evil is non-existence, conditioned and accidental. This paper is aimed at discussing the issue of creation from point of view of Muslim and Christian theologians and thinkers, especially Aquinas and Allame Tabataba'i. Despite the differences in the Christian theology of the medieval centuary and the Islamic theology, in principle, they are so close because both theologies revolve around Allah though Christian theologians and thinkers of the medieval centuary knew and used the works of the Islamic theologians such as Avicenna andAI-Farabi. Therefore, they share a similar theme and linguistic style.
