This paper is a short investigation of the book Integrity of Islamic world, which deals with the Islamic world from futurological aspect. It was written by Sayed Yahya Safavi in four chapters and three appendixes. We will try to have critical review upon this book.

The Imamt of Ali (A.S) the commander of the faithful is founded upon the exact texts (Nosus) of many books and traditions. verses like: the verse of Vilayah (The Guardianship, Maida 5:55) the verse of the completion of religion(Maida 5:3), the verse of propagation (Maida 5:67), the verse of Mubahila (Al –i- Imran 3:61), the verse of Ulil Amr (Those charged with authority, Nisa 4:59) as well as narrations such as :Hadith of Ghadir, Hadith of Manzilat (The Rank), Hadith of Yawm Aldar , Hadith of Thagalain (Two weighty Trusts), Hadith of Noor (The Light), hadith of similarity with the prophets, hadith of Madinat ol ilm (The City of Knowledge) and so many other verses and numerous narrations which are presented in the books of speculative philosophy (Kalam) and beliefs (Agaeed) of Shiites; Among these, some of people of hadith and a group named Bekriya put forward verses and narrations as the texts of the succession of Aboobakr, and some other speculative philosophers of the sunnies, who do not believe in the wordings of the succession of Aboobakr, consider these verses and narrations as the opposition with the clear and exact texts of Alis leadership. In this writing, I will talk about the analysis and the criticism of these claimed texts.

The “future Studies ” is the recognition of the future about different social, cultural, economical, political and technological subjects and phenomena which paves the way for the possibility of selecting, planning and consciously and strategic encountering with them properly and efficiently.
The future studies, In reality, is to establish foresightedness and futurology about the different levels of human beings life in order to show the importance and necessity of attention to the worlds events and changes as well as providing capability of reasonable and appropriate behavior or to provide acceptable patterns or scenarios. Since attention toward future and necessity of preparation, planning or preparing the ground for an “Ideal Future” is one of the important sections of “Mahdism Doctrine”, it would have some links with “future studies”. Moreover, its being combination of studying factors and research about future can form a new field of study with the name of “Mahdavi future studies. This study is in charge with presenting these two sections: namely, analyzing the entity of future studies and formation of Mahdavi future studies.

Mingling of Mahdism with warp and woof of Shiites life and having decisive belief in the Mahdi of the last era (Armageddon) is the conclusion of the infallible Imams extensive efforts to establishing Mahdism. To know the authentic Mahdism traditions would help us to get acquainted with this fundamental notion and its basic axis and pivot.
Mofazzal-ibn-omar is one of the narrators who have narrated numerous narrations from Imam Sadiq (A.S) in the field of Mahdism. In addition to recognizing the narrators, knowing Mofazal-ibn-Omar is necessary from two aspects: his abundant narrations from one side, and his being taunted from the other side. This incompatibility and instantaneous vicissitudes has made it difficult to study and analyze his character and personality. These heterogeneous approaches and judgments in the book of Rijal (Transmitters of Hadith) made me to clear the dust of ambiguity and even accusation from his presence.

Sheikh Toosis book of Geyba (Occultation) is one of the precious heritages from Imams that have been originated from weighty and authentic origins. Today, we are heirs of this unique and matchless treasure that is considered truly as one of the most appropriate praiseworthy Hadith references.
In composing this book, Sheikh Toosi is benefited from very reliable sources of Shiite and organized its foundations that some parts of it are available for us today and unfortunately the other parts are not so.
In this writing, we are to find the major sources of Toosis book of Al-Geybah and we try our best to etymologize the compatible relationship between the origins and the book of al-Geybah and also to present its state of adoption.

The international humanitarian law is one of the significant subjects of the contemporary world. This law which has been entered into the international law after the states certification is actually the achievement of human beings thought. It, globally, has the privilege of the popular, national and international support as well as the United Nations’ endeavor for its stabilization. Various scientific seminars are hold in many countries and the researchers try to analyze or criticize them. Do these laws reasonably reduce the sufferings of the people? According to the researchers, by now, such achievement has not been attained.
This research’ hypothesis is going to demonstrate the instruction of Mahdism is to be represented accordingly; therefore, whether it is possible to reduce the sufferings of the human society under its influence or not, is questionable. The main statement is whether in the instruction of Mahdism, providing the rights of human being is accessible or not? Studying the sources of Mahdism instruction is to present this reality that the aim of human beings rights is attainable in its framework. For this reason in the instruction of Mahdism, it is recommended to leave possible crisis and to remain in the traditional Holy Prophet’s way of life. (PBUH)). Also the growth of the thoughts of the society at the end of the history makes the accelerated recognition of Monji (Rescuer) and finally the belief in Imam who expands the justice provides the major background for rescuing human beings. As a result, if there is a war and during it to avoid the international oppositions and also the governing of the basic items of faith and the acquisition of the moral generosity would keep the human beings generosity by the recognition of Deliverer Imam (Monji) and the acceptance of Imam Zamans calls. Consequently, the human beings rights have been provided in its best way.
