If the earth will stay without the imam (hgr)?
One hundred and eighteen narratives have been handed down to us, which point that the Earth would never be without God’s proof.
Allame Majlesi collected these narratives in the chapter “Al-Iztirar Ela al-Hujjah” [Necessity of God’s proof] of BiḥÄr al-ʾAnwÄr
Also the late Kulayni has mentioned such narratives in the book “KÄfÄ«â€; the chapter “Kitab Al-Hujjah”. For example:
Predicates of birth [of Imam Mahdi (hgr)]
Prophet Muhamad (pbuh & h) and Imams have informed about the birth of a baby for Imam Hasan Askari, who has hidden after he was born.
Statistics of collected narrations, in this area, in the book “Kamal Al-Din”, as follows:
From prophet Muhamad (pbuh & h); forty five narrations
From Imam Ali (pbuh)…
From majesty Zahra (pbuh); four narrations
From Imam Hasan (pbuh); tow narrations
From Imam Hussain (pbuh); five narrations
Due to Twelve Caliphs (pbu th) [12 Shiites’ imams)

Sunnis have been unable to introduce these people, but in Shiites’ teaching, these twelve divine caliphs have been known and specified.
The last Savior in the Quran
Throughout history, the masses of people were waiting for “the savior” to get rid of misfortune and suffer!
In the Quran, the word “save” is coming with the same word “Najaynah”… As Noah saved from drowning in the Great Flood! And Lot saved from the city of sinners! And Israelites saved from pharaohs!!
