“Deviation in Mahdī sm”

Keysaniye believed in ” Muhammad ibn al-Hanafiyyah”‘s Imamate.

After his death, some denied it and said, “He is alive but absent, he is hidden in Rizwa mount until the day, he will be commanded and will emerge.”

Actually they respected him as the Imam whom was awaited!

Zeidieh [was a group who] believed that Zeid; Imam Sajjād’s son, was the promised Mahdī (hgr). Because they heard prophet (pbuh&th)’s narration, “Mahdī (hgr) is from Hussain’s children, he rises with sword [kills the tyrants]. His mother will be the best of slaves”. [Imam Mahdi (hgr)’s mother; Malika “Narjis” was captured by Arabs, Befor getting married with Imam ‘Askari].

[Zeid] He revolted against the oppressors and Umayyad caliphs and was martyred in 122 AH.

Bāqiriah [was a group who] believed in Imam Bāgher (pbuh)’s return and they respected him as the Imam whom was awaited!

Isma’iliyah [was a group who] also believed Isma’il; Imam Sādiq’s son, was the Imam Qā’em [Mahdī] (hgr) who will fill the world by justice.

The stories of Nawusiah, Musawia, Muhammadiyah and Askaria were nearly the same thing!
