Abstract

Uncertain beliefs and thoughts in the atmosphere of Mahdism, which is full of social relations with the category of Mahdism, need to be assessed and can be investigated in two formats: matching with reality and explaining the facts. Uncertain beliefs or concepts in Mahdism have the ability to be studied in three basic axes These are: 1- Conformity of the image with reality and truth 2- Possibility of induction of truth in history 3- Consequence measurement and impressions. The study of these three axes requires a distinctive method to distinguish the conceptuality of the subject from the certainty of the doctrine. This method is carried out in six stages, which include: 1- Ideation 2- Gathering sources 3- Evaluation of sources 4- Evaluation of text 5- Content analysis 6- Consequence measurement and the sum of the six stages is the answer to how to study. The history of images are placed in Mahdavitism. Using the method of studying the history of concepts, all propositions of a concept in Mahdism are studied in order to discover the origin of the concept, its impact from social conditions and forces, and its threatening consequences.
