'''Rajʿa''' (Arabic:رجعة), the belief that a group of people will return to the Earth after death, is a belief particular to the [[Shi'a]]s. The period of this incident will begin shortly after the [[reappearance]] of the [[Imam al-Mahdi (a)|twelfth Shia Imam, Al-Mahdi (a)]], and end before his [[martyrdom]] 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. | '''Rajʿa''' (Arabic:رجعة), the belief that a group of people will return to the Earth after death, is a belief particular to the [[Shi'a]]s.
