Abstract :

The theory of Mahdism has very wide and unknown dimensions due to its extent and universality.One of the most important examples in Islamic mysticism is the issue of the end and Mahdism, which is stated with titles such as perfect man, the owner of the inner aspect esoteric province, etc. This research uses a descriptive and analytical method and a library method to express a mystical interpretation of the issue of Mahdism. It is necessary to mention that despite different interpretations of mystical concepts and various interpretations of theoretical and practical principles, mysticism is irrefrangible linked with the ideal Mahdavi society. The lesser known position of the theory of Mahdism in mystical topics and Persian research and the conformity of the views of this theory and idea with the original mystical terms, which generally developed significantly after Ibn Arabi, prompted the author to undertake this research.
