'''Several Returns of Imam Ali (a)''' | |||
According to sixs hadiths, which do not have reliable chains of transmitters, Imam Ali (a) will return several times. And after punishing the enemies, he will rule the earth. | |||
'''The First Returners''' | |||
In ''[[Tafsir al-'Ayyashi (book)|Tafsir al-'Ayyashi]]'', the first returners are said to be Imam al-Husayn (a) and his companions. A hadith in ''[[Bihar al-Anwar]]'', which reports the conversation between Imam al-Husayn (a) and his companions on the [[eve of Ashura]], includes a description of what will happen at the time of raj'a. In another hadith, Imam al-Husayn (a) is with Imam al-Mahdi (a) when the latter passes away; Imam al-Husayn (a) perforsm burial rituals for him and then continues his rule for forty years. | |||
However, according to some other hadiths, Imam al-Mahdi (a) will be the last ruler. | |||
In some other hadiths, the first returner is said to be Imam Ali (a), but considering the hadiths that talk about several returns for Imam Ali (a), it is possible to infer that Imam Ali (a) will be the first returner before the reappearance of Imam al-Mahdi (a) and Imam al-Husayn (a) will be the first returner after the reappearance. | |||
