Waiting for Imam Mahdi (AS) from the point of view of Allameh Jafari and Professor Carbon

Today, in addition to pursuing welfare and material issues and progress in various fields, human beings are always in search of spirituality and religious knowledge. Many scholars and scholars in Islamic and Eastern countries are working on religious issues. Orientalists have always paid attention to this issue for many centuries and have presented different, opposing and even distorted views and works, and sometimes in accordance with religious foundations. This contradiction has many causes, one of the most important of which is the lack of access to firsthand sources and Muslim scholars. The main subject of this research is comparing the views of Professor Henry Carbon with Allameh Jafari on the issue of waiting for the Twelfth Imam of Shiites and proving this indisputable principle of Shiite belief in their views, which has been done comparatively and analytically by library studies. If the originality of the sources is observed, almost the same opinions for fair scholars can be obtained with the opinions of Islamic scholars, as compared to the issue of waiting for Imam Mahdi (as) from the point of view of these two thinkers, this assumption has been proven.
