Evaluating the Relation between Mahdism and the New Islamic Civilization within the Intellectual Framework of the Esteemed Leader

Today, discussions on "Modern Islamic Civilization" and "Mahdism Studies" are being introduced in a fragmented manner, with researchers in each field separately developing their own topics. It is natural that the ambiguity in this relationship and the existing connection between them will lead to the scattering and parallelism of research between the two fields. Moreover, in the intellectual system of the esteemed leadership, the new Islamic civilization and Mahdism have a close relationship. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze and elucidate the relationship between these two concepts from his perspective. In this work, the method of "descriptive-analytical" is employed to address this matter. The outcome of the work at hand is that within the intellectual framework of the esteemed position of the Supreme Leader, the complete and perfect realization of new Islamic civilization occurs in the era of appearance. Within this context, the goal of the Islamic Revolution is achieving a new civilization; therefore, as the foundation of this civilization is laid, the preparatory stages for the appearance will advance in its own longitudinal course. Thus, the new Islamic civilization is not only the most important but also the ultimate facilitator in the pathway to the facilitation of the appearance.
