Khalifah al-Mahdi

Khalifah al-Mahdi is a title used in Islamic tradition, meaning "Rightly Guided Caliph." It refers to a leader believed to be divinely guided to restore justice, moral order, and true faith during times of chaos or corruption. The concept holds particular significance in Shia Islam, where al-Mahdi is regarded as the awaited savior who will return before the Day of Judgment to bring peace. Different Muslim communities have varying beliefs about his identity and time of arrival, but generally, he symbolizes hope for divine justice and spiritual renewal.
