Abstract:

According to the increasing pace of the phenomenon of globlization, the concept of "global citizenship" is going to create an ethical urban world by removing all limitations , crossing the territorial boundaries and taking advantage of norms and common human values. This concept is remarkably similar to the desired Islamic society , particularly since the Holy Quran introduces the true believers and pious people as the ultimate leaders of the world and gives glad tidings of the oppressed one's inheritance in the earth. Hence the waiters of Imam Mahdi (the universal peacemaker) are known as the Mahdavi community. The people of this community could be considered as citizens whose nationalities are not based on their geographical boundaries but it refers to the territory of their faith and belief. Consequently , waiting for reappearance of Imam Mahdi could be regarded as a city and the waiters as its citizens that their major duty is to prepare and provide the essential conditions for the reappearance of the savior of mankind. This study uses a descriptive _analytical method and a library approach to explain the main components of ethical citizenship based on the Mahdavia Idea and culture. The results show that the citizensip conforms to concepts such as modernity and secularism but the components of the ethical citizenship in the Mahdavia's culture has a broader and deeper meaning.
