In this regard, the news and narrations related to Imam Ali (AS) have a special place. This research seeks to answer the following question: What is the necessity of Mahdism and its nature in the news related to Imam Ali (AS)? This is especially true because it seems that the Conduct of Imam Mahdi (AS) is a comprehensive and ideal example that Imam Ali (AS) aimed to realize. Therefore, there is a direct relationship between Mahdavi's world rule and Imam Ali (AS). The results of this research indicate that in the news of Imam Ali (as), Mahdism is one of the most important revelation teachings and learning about it is the duty of religious faith. According to this, Imam Mahdi (AS) is one of the sons of Imam Ali (AS) and Ahlul Bayt (AS) and as the Imam and the divine caliph, he has the status of "Welayat". Also, Mahdism, in all its dimensions, is directly related to the will of God and issues such as "birth", "absence" and "emergence" and "expectation" and so on, are related to God's knowledge and power. Imam Ali (as), by designing Mahdiism, considers the only way of approaching God and prosperity to be monotheistic thinking which entails " Welayat " as its terms and conditions. Therefore, all human beings are invited to follow the Imam Mahdi (AS), and it instructs everyone to deal with the allegations made by the enemies on the promised issue of Mahdiism.
