Abstract
Ibn Khaldun is one of the few Sunni scholars who, despite many hadiths about Mahdism and the formation of the government by Imam al-Zaman (as) in the authentic books of Sunni narration, has denied it and cited his "theory of nervousness" which he It is considered definite; Denies the possibility of forming a government by Imam al-Zaman (as). He considers the formation of the government based on the theory of nervousness as proportion and considers the Imam of the Age (pbuh) in the end times as lacking its support. The purpose of the present study is to critique the Qur'an and the validity of Ibn Khaldun's theory of nervousness in the formation of the Mahdavi government, and for this purpose, this theory has been examined with a false and correct assumption. Given the assumption that the theory is correct, the research results state; The Holy Qur'an emphasizes the continuation of the generation of the Prophet (PBUH) and is undeniable, so Imam al-Asr (AS) can form a world government with the help of his relatives in the end times, and this does not contradict Ibn Khaldun's theory of nervousness. Assuming the theory is wrong, it states the results; Ibn Khaldun has erred in his argument. Although this theory has historical documents, but throughout history, many cases can be named that have been formed outside the framework of the theory of nervousness, such as the events of early Islam and the Quraysh opposition to the Prophet (PBUH).
