A Study on Imam Mahdi’s Weaponry After Reappearance and Women’s Role in the Promised Uprising

According to the Mabollegh Thought and Culture website, the book ‘Signs of the Promised Government’ by Najm al-Din Tabasi, spanning 319 pages, has reached its seventh print through the Boostan-e Ketab Institute.

As reported by Mehr, the establishment of a single, widespread global government is a yearning that all faithful and justice-seeking people await. At every moment, they sincerely call upon God for its realization. But the question is: ‘How will Imam Mahdi (AS) dismantle the world’s diverse political systems and establish a unified global order?’ ‘How will hunger be eradicated and corruption prevented under his rule?’
