Thinkers and scholars from 20 countries are taking part in the event.
According to Islam, Mahdisim is a belief in the 12th imam of the Muslim Shia household, who is expected to emerge from occultation to fulfill his role and lead the faithful to salvation.
The belief varies under different names in different religions. The fundamentals of different religions show a recurring theme the Messiah; the one who is anticipated as the savior and liberator. This belief can be found in Islam, Christianity, Judaism and Zoroastrianism as well as a host of other religions too.
People always dream of better things: like better things to eat and a better life with no social problems; According to religious teachings when the Savior emerges the world will become full of all these “better” concepts.
But the main question, which remains to be answered, is that why mankind waits for a savior in this world.
The international conference on Mahdism doctrine will further discuss practical ways to prepare the ground for the reappearance of the savior of mankind.

No. The concept of a savior, referring to the one who will come to save the people from oppression and injustice, is common amongst various theologies, though they differ about who the savior is. The savior in Zoroastrianism is known as “Sosyant”, in Hinduism as “Kalki”, in Buddhism as “Maitreya”, in Judaism as “Moshiach”, and in Christianity as “Messiah”. The savior in Islam is known as “Mahdi”, and all the Muslims, regardless of their sects, believe in him. There are frequent narrations from the Prophet about the Mahdi in ‘Kutub al-Sittah’, the primary books of narrations in the Sunni sect of Islam. Also, various books have been authored throughout history by non-Shia Islamic scholars about the Mahdi. All of the Muslims believe in the Mahdi, who is from the progeny of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), and has the same name as him. The Shia Muslims believe in the Mahdi as their 12th Imam, who was born in the year 256 Hijri in Samarra, and is still alive.
