چکیده:
The ‘End of Times’ – a period studied
in the eschatologies of the dominant world religions –
refers to the world’s state of affairs before and after the
coming of Imam Mahdi, when worldwide justice and
peace will be established. The previous articles in this
series presented an outline of the concept from the
viewpoint of the major world religions. The Islamic
perspective is also given, using the Qur’an and hadith
as sources to visualize future events, and with the
purpose of increasing our knowledge on the advent of
Imam Mahdi to establish a positive relationship with
the Imam, and preparing for his return. Topics such as
the quality of the people during this time, including
their intellectual condition and scientific and
technological advancements were explained. This part
includes the people’s cultural, moral, and religious
condition during the End of Times, explaining what
will arise concerning family relationships, youth,
women, mosques, Islamic law, and the general
representation of Islam.
