'''Al-Qāʾim''' (Arabic:{{ia| القائم}}; literally meaning: who stands up) is a title of [[Imam al-Mahdi (a)]] indicating his promised [[Imam al-Mahdi's (a) uprising|uprising]] in the [[End Time]]. Although in many [[hadith]]s the title refers to Imam al-Mahdi (a), in others, it refers to other [[Imams (a)]] as well, which means a person who stands up for [[God]]'s orders. Some [[Shi'a]]s in 2nd/[[8th century|eighth]] and 3rd/[[ninth century|ninth]] centuries thought that some Imams or their children were the promised al-Qa'im and were expecting their reappearance.

During the lifetime of [[Imam al-Kazim (a)]], many people expected him, as the "Qa'im Al Muhammad", to found the right government that the society was expecting for years.

'Ali]]<ref>Masūdī, ''Murūj al-dhahab'', vol. 3, p. 230; Mansūr bi-Allāh, ''al-ʿAqd al-thamīn fī aḥkām al-aʾimma al-ṭāhirīn'', p. 197.</ref>, [[al-Nafs al-Zakiyya]]<ref>Abū l-faraj al-Iṣfahānī, ''Maqātil al-ṭālibīyyīn'', p. 207, 210-219.</ref>, and other leaders of Zaydiyya.<ref>See: Mūsawīnizhād, "Mahdawīyya wa firqa-yi Ḥusaynīyya-yi Zaydīyya", p. 127-162. </ref>

* [[Isma'iliyya]] which was formed after the martyrdom of [[Imam al-Sadiq (a)]] was branched into two groups: some of them accepted the imamate of Muahmmad, the son of [[Isma'il b. Imam al-Sadiq (a)|Isma'il]], and some of them stopped at the [[imamate]] of Isma'il and believed in his Mahdawiyya. They believed that Isma'il did not die; rather his father, Imam al-Sadiq (a), had hidden him from people in order to protect him from harms. They believed that he would live until he takes over the whole Earth. These are pure Isma'iliyya.<ref>Nubakhtī, ''Firaq al-Shīʿa'', p. 67-68.</ref> However, some of the followers of Muhammad b. Isma'il believed in his Mahdawiyya and stopped at his imamate.<ref>Nubakhtī, ''Firaq al-Shīʿa'', p. 73.</ref>
