"Al-Nahiya al-Muqaddasa" means "The Sacred Zone". The term was used by the Shi'a since the first half of the 3rd/9th century, during the [[imamate]] of Imam al-Hadi (a) until the end of the Minor Occultation (329/941), because of tough political and social circumstances of the Shi'a and restrictions placed by [[Abbasid Caliphs]] on social communications of Imams. When they cited the sayings of or talked about Imam al-Hadi (a), Imam al-'Askari (a) or Imam al-Mahdi (a), the Shi'a used the term "al-Nahiya al-Muqaddasa", instead of the Imam's (a) name. Thus, the use of this term to refer to Imam al-Mahdi (a) or his [[Special Deputies]] is believed to be out of [[taqiyya]] (or dissimulation). | "Al-Nahiya al-Muqaddasa" means "The Sacred Zone".<ref>Dihkhudā, Lughatnāma, Under the word {{ia|ناحیه}}.</ref> The term was used by the Shi'a since the first half of the 3rd/9th century, during the [[imamate]] of Imam al-Hadi (a) until the end of the Minor Occultation (329/941), because of tough political and social circumstances of the Shi'a and restrictions placed by [[Abbasid Caliphs]] on social communications of Imams.

The term was used during the Minor Occultation as a title for Imam al-Mahdi (a).

Some letters are cited in Shiite [[hadith]] collections written to or received from "al-Nahiya al-Muqaddasa".

There are two [[ziyarah text]]s of [[Imam al-Husayn (a)]] narrated from [[Imam al-Mahdi (a)]], known as "Ziyarah al-Nahiya al-Muqaddasa". One of which is referred to as the well-known Ziyarah al-Nahiya al-Muqaddasa, and the other is known as the lesser known Ziyarah al-Nahiya al-Muqaddasa. The well-known ziyarah was transmitted by one of the [[Special Deputies]] and is cited in a number of sources, including ''[[al-Mazar (by al-Mufid)|al-Mazar]]'' by [[al-Shaykh al-Mufid]], ''[[Al-Mazar al-kabir (book)|al-Mazar al-kabir]]'' by [[Al-Mazar al-kabir (book)|Ibn al-Mashhadi]], and ''[[Bihar al-anwar]]''. The lesser known Ziyarah al-Nahiya al-Muqaddasa is also known as [[Ziyarah al-Shuhada']] (Ziyarah of the Martyrs) because Imam al-Husayn's (a) martyred companions are mentioned therein.
