Abstract
Believing in the rise of the Savior is an old belief in humanity. And through The study of religions we focus on this point. It is Worth mentioning that althyall religions agree on the rise of that Savior, yet they disagree on naming, the rising time, qualities, and tasks of that savior. And the Savior was mentioned by ancient Egyptians, Persian, Indians ,Chinese, and some others. And Muslims are no exception, they ,too, believe in the rise of the Savior since he was mentioned in the holy Quran and the Hadith.
There is a big number of studies that discussed the rise of the Savior in Islamic ideology. And there are university research that discuss this topic. But the topic of this research is completely different, as it discusses The comparison between beliefs of Yazidis and Shia. And as I wrote this research I didn’t count on any other academic research that discussed this topic. And I believed that this topic is worth researching since both believes have similar and different ideas simultaneously about the savior. And I focused on Al-Ithna Ashary ideology since it focused on this topic more than the other ideologies of Shia, and because it is more spread globally than the other ideologies.
