Abstract

This dissertation aims to raise different interpretations of the verses of the Quran, especially on topics pertaining religious ideologies outside of Islam, such as messianism awaiting the arrival of the Savior. The verses of the Quran do not indicate the arrival of the Savior at the end of time, since this news is only found in the Hadith of the Prophet. In contrast to this perspective, Makarim Syirazi, a marja’ taqlīd scholar, was of the opinion that the Al-Quran covers many verses about messianism, particularly through verses, which he considered as verses of raj’ah. These two contradictory views raises the following academic questions: What is the messianic ideology in Makārim Syirazi’s thought? How is the interpretation of Makārim Syirazi in raj`ah verses? How important is Makarim Syirazi’s messianic thinking in the Iranian Islamic revolution? This is a library research with an intellectual historical approach applying the theory of Jurgen Moltman’s theology of hope along with the theory of Islamic Messianims by A. A Sachedena. The results of this study prove that: Makārim Syīrāzī’s messianic thinking as seen in his interpretation of the verses of raj’ah is inseparable from the common messianic discourse. His thinking about the characteristics of Imam Mahdi (messiah) as a saint who is a descendant of the Prophet (ahl Bayt), for example, actually bears a resemblance to the figure of the messiah described in the Judeo- Christian tradition. The characteristics of the messiah in the latter tradition must also be a descendant of the Prophet David. Likewise, the concept of God’s Justice regarding the resurrection of al-Mahdi at the end of time shares similarities with the resurrection of Jesus. In Makarim Syirazi’s thought, God’s Justice believes that everyone who is wronged will receive divine justice through a resurrection, while those who wrong them will be punished by God. In the Christian tradition, God’s justice manifests itself in the resurrection of Jesus the Savior to atone for human inherited sins.
