Mahdism (65) | The Role of Women in the Rise and Rule of Imam Mahdi a.j (Part 2)
When it comes to shaping an Islamic society and fulfilling God’s purpose, the Holy Quran outlines core duties like practicing Taqwa (God-consciousness), encouraging good, standing against wrong, and guarding one’s chastity.

Mahdism (64) | The Role of Women in the Rise and Rule of Imam Mahdi a.j (Part 1)
Much like the men of society, women too must exert their utmost effort in fulfilling their role toward the realization of divine objectives, as the fulfillment of divine promises will certainly not be possible without their active participation. It is for this very reason that Almighty Allah commands both men and women to adorn themselves with spiritual values, for it is only righteous individuals and a righteous society that can become the inheritors of the earth.

Mahdism (60) | The Consequences of Deviant Movements and How to Counter Them
Even with all the hate and pushback against religious teachings lately, belief in Mahdism is actually growing every single day.

Merely being “oppressed” is not the reason for victory over enemies and ruling upon the earth; rather, the presence of faith and the acquisition of merits are also necessary, and the oppressed of the world will not achieve rule over the earth until they revive these two principles.
