'''Raj’a''', the belief that a group of people will return to the earth after death, is a belief particular to the Shias. The period of this incident will begin shortly after the reappearance of the twelfth Shia Imam, Al-Mahdi, and end before his death and the final resurrection. A number of evildoers will be resurrected so that they may taste the punishment of their actions in this world, whilst a group of righteous people will be brought back to life so that they may witness this act of justice. | '''Raj’a''' (Arabic:رجعة), the belief that a group of people will return to the earth after death, is a belief particular to the Shias.
