Abstract:
Relying on Islamic mysticism and philosophical bases and through a deep viewpoint and in a dialectical method، it is tried to clarify the fact that Existential structure of Mahdist civilization is a structure beyond arbitrary، and the relation of Imam to its people is like the relation between soul and the body. All the fruitful outcomes of Mahdist civilization is because of this deep bond between Imam and the people. Hence، the relation of soul and body is analyzed in philosophy and Islamic mysticism in the first place. We define the difference between the elemental body and purgatory body based on Sadra school of thought and then conclude that elemental body is related to soul in position of active destruction and the purgatory body is related to soul in a position of essential destruction. Then based on this analysis، the quality of the relation between the body and soul is clarified. In Mahdist civilization that infection and love toward Imam Mahdi(A.S) is pivotal and the members of it reach to the position of active annihilation in relation to Imam and as a result in a way beyond symbolic، social life as elemental body for Him is a place for appearance of His perfect attributes. Finally، after defining the relation between Imam and people as the relation between body and soul in Mahdist civilization، we mention some of its fruits and results. And then we ontologically analyze some of the great changes in Mahdist civilization.
Machine summary:
This is the stage that can be termed the actional fana of that lower rank in relation to the higher rank; meaning, the stage at which the egoism existing within the sphere of its actions dies, and it realizes that its actions are attributed to a superior being and are realized through Him. Now, this truth also applies to the relationship between the soul and the body; because according to the proofs of Transcendent Wisdom, the body is the descended reality of the soul (Mulla Sadra, 1363: 87-88; ibid.
What was stated regarding the nature of the connection between the soul and the body, as well as the way human life is realized, was to prove this truth: that the relationship of Hazrat Hujjat(aj) with the ideal Islamic civilization is more than a metaphor; it is like the relationship between the soul and the elemental body, and by considering philosophical and mystical nuances, the existence of identical existential rules can be demonstrated in both.
Now, with the realization of the Mahdavi civilization, the Wilayah of Hazrat Hujjat(, which is hidden in the essence of his existence and holds the unseen and the inner reality of all matters, manifests in this world; and just as by seeing any body, one perceives the existence of the soul that governs it, the Mahdavi civilization provides the conditions through which the general public becomes aware of the station of the Divine Wilayah of the Perfect Man; because this Wilayah has emerged from the unseen of the world.
