After Maghrib
About this episode

In this episode, we’re thrilled to host Sayed Abdullah al Nakeeb, a close friend of the podcast, as we explore the complex concept of "The Raj'ah" in Shiism. This belief, which involves resurrecting or returning to life after death to fight against, or join alongside Imam Mahdi (ajf), is both profound and delicate, often surrounded by taboo. We discuss how the Raj'ah relates to the "Ghayba" (the occultation of Imam Mahdi) and what it means for Shiite spirituality and eschatology. Don’t miss this deep dive into a topic that intersects faith, mystery, and the anticipation of the end times.
