Defending the Savior: A Review of Ali Asghar Ridvani’s Difāʿ az Mahdawiyyat
In Difāʿ az Mahdawiyyat, Ali Asghar Ridvani systematically critiques four major claims against the doctrine of the Mahdi, including allegations of political pressure and foreign influence. The work defends Mahdism as a universal human belief rooted in nature, supported by ten Quranic verses and the consensus of all Islamic schools of thought.
