Many Western thinkers subscribe to the theory of Pluralism. This idea is based on the assumption that there are different ways of salvation. The religion of Islam has a monopoly on the path to the truth. Some verses of the Holy Quran with emphasis on the verses "Islam prevails over all religions" can be used as an intra-religious response to the notion of pluralism. This research has tried to explain the degree of recognition of the plurality of religions in the age of advent. As such, the author has attempted to represent the age of [Imam Mahdi's] appearance according to the ninth verse of Chapter As-Saff. Based on the findings of the research, the Holy Quran predicts that truth will surpass the falsehood and Islam will prevail over other religions. For Islam is the only way to the truth in achieving salvation. At the advent age salvation will be realized under the leadership of Imam al-Asr (May Allah hasten his appearance].
