The word raj`at, meaning of turning back of a group of people to the world after death and before resurrection, is one of the Shiite teachings which is inextricably tied with Mahdism, apocalypse events, emergence of Imam Mahdi and his insurrection. To prove this teaching, the Shiite scholars have proposed valid reasons from which we can refer to verse 83 of Surah An-Naml. According to the Ahlul-Bayt’s narrations, this verse points to unity of a group of people in this world. By the help of Imamiyah narrations and consensus this verse is interpreted as a valid Quranic text referring to rij`at; however, for Sunnis’ commentators, the verse is a reason of resurrection. In accordance with the rest of the Quran verses, all human beings are gathered in the great resurrection; therefore, the day in which all creatures are gathered is separate from the day in which members of a group are gathered.
