Centuries ago, the preliminaries to establishing the divine civilization were under way with the formation of God’s party and Satan’s party. The ummah of prophets and the ummah of paragons had played their key roles in holding the preliminaries to establishing this civilization. Those setting the scene for the advent were also able to lay the bricks of the wall of the new civilization with coherent and prudent organizations.
The most influential group who diligently and honestly shined in this divine organization were Iranians. A nation whom Imams (PBUT) had counted on, to reap the results of the formation of an ummah that would be a preliminary to the advent of Imam Mahdi (PBUH). These fortunate and hard working nation were able to carry out a great revolution. They ultimately, brought about the results of the formation of an ummah who set the scene for the advent of Imam Mahdi (PBUH). They were the first cohesive Shia society who formed a divine revolution that inflicted the last wound on the front of polytheism…
This revolution was expected to take important steps to achieve the ideals of a divine civilization. It had to design a systematic organization based on the religious instructions and the religious leadership thought. So it was headed to built the pillar of the powerful and executive arm of the system, to finally become an exemplar country with the two wings of Islam and Mahdism. The final stage of building a model country was the reproduction of a modern Islamic civilization with two important dimensions: The hardware and the appearance dimensions of civilization, which includes material developments, and its software and real dimension, which is the growth of human values and their implementation deep down in people’s lives and government officials. The development of human values was the most important dimension and the goal of the formation of this civilization.
This small replica of the divine government was the result of the formation of the ummah who prepared the ground for the advent of Imam Mahdi (PBUH), and provided the human and social conditions on the earth for the coming of the promised saviour. In this section, we examine the results of the formation of this ummah for the advent of Imam Mahdi (PBUH) in dealing with the revolution of Iran and the various details of its formation, the details that we have heard and read less about.
