:Imam Hadi(PBUH) said
In the occultation of our Qa’im, if there weren’t any scholars and sages who invite people to Imam Mahdi or any defenders of the religion or helper to save unable people from evil’s and enemies’ traps, all people would stop following God’s religion and would become a pagan
Scholars and sages, who save weak and poor Shia Muslims like a captain who guides a ship, are better and beloved ones for God
Al-Ihtijaj, volume 1, page 18
Emam bagher, peace be upon him said:
Man's smile to his (fellow) brother as well as wiping brushwood (hurts) out of him are generosity and the most beloved invocation before Allah is to make a believer happy.

:The translation of verse 18 of Surah An-Naba
“The Day the Horn is blown and you will come forth in multitudes”
Imam Sadiq was asked: Is the return (i.e. return to the world) right
The Imam said: Yes
Asked: Who is the first person who comes back
The Imam said: Hussein ibn Ali, who exits after the uprising of Al-Qa’im
The man asked: “Are there people accompanying him? He said: “No, as Allah says (in the Quran): they come in groups and respectively, nations after nations
The book of Alvafy, vol. 2, p.267
:The second reason is the necessity of knowing the Imam of each era
"It is a sign of faith"
Aban ibn Taghlib says: I asked Imam Sadiq: Is a person faithful if he knows all Imams except for the Imam of his own era? The Imam said: “No.” I asked again: Is he considered as a Muslim
The Imam answered: Yes
The Source: Kamal al-Din and Tamam Al-Nimeh
:The important lesson
"Every Muslim is not considered as a faithful one"
The difference that we Shiites have with other Islamic and non-Islamic sects is that we know this dear and great person; his name, his date of birth, his parents and his beloved ancestors, we know his “concerns”, but others do not know these... That's why Shiites’ resorts are "livelier" and "more enthusiastic" and "more meaningful" and "more focused
The basic principle of Mahdism principle is agreed on among all Muslims... But in the main part which is the "the knowledge of the Savior himself" there is inconsistent insight. Shiites, through their certain news, know the Savior by his name, specification, and his date of birth

:Imam Sadiq’s (PBUH) warnings
I swear to God, you will break undoubtedly such as shattering of a glass but glass can be recycled (by melting and reproducing). I swear to God you will break like pottery, very truly it does not return to original condition
I swear to God you will be screened and distinguished from each other undoubtedly and you will be selected until a few of you remain
Al-Qaibat Na´mani, page 307
The Holy Prophet said:
“In the era of Imam Mahdi (PBUH), the earth puts out its treasures such as pieces of gold and silver,
The thief comes forward and says:
“Was my hand cut for a thing like this?”
The murderer comes forward and says:
“Did I commit murder for such an object?”
The one who hasn’t maintained ties with his family says:
“Did I cut the ties (with my relatives) for such a thing?”
Then these pieces of gold and silver remain on the ground and nobody has the slightest desire to take them.”
Besharat al-Islam p.71
What sufferings (hardships) are incurred by Imam Mahdi (PBUH) who is the owner of the whole planet earth and how does he feel and how do we feel? He is in prison and is not happy and we are absolutely ignorant
In Bahjat’s Company, vol 1, p106
My friend, think about your Leader’s exile during which this vast world has become a jail for him
Jesus Christ says about the Apocalypse: “Nations will be at war! Famine, pestilence and earthquakes will occur! People will hate each other! The sun will darken and the moon will have no light!”
Matthew, chapter24, verses 1to6
Whatever is said, this prophecy is much scarier than the terrible flood of Noah and the tale of Lot's folk!!! More importantly, humanity must experience and pass through all these calamities so that it can acquire the "merit" of believing in "the belief of salvation"! It is here that God does not get involved directly in "Saving" but sends his messengers to save the believers! Such as sending Moses, like sending Jesus
?Is it not the time for our "Savior Seeking" to get deeper
Throughout history, in order to survive the catastrophes, people were waiting for a "savior"! Like Noah who saved people from drowning in a storm! Saving Lot from the city full of lustful people! Saving the Israelites from Pharaohs
Therefore, due to this, God removed people with lustful life off the history; those who rejected Noah were destroyed! People of Sodom (Lut’s Tribe) were burned by the lightning! And also the drowning of Pharaohs in the Nile
Therefore this whine of those who wait for a savior “Where is the destroyer of the buildings of hypocrisy and blasphemy? ” has a Quranic root
