Abstract

One of the divine promises to the prophets in the Quran is the subject of obedience, which can be generalized to the righteous global government after the emergence of Imam Hujjat (a.s.). The global government of Imam Mahdi (a.s.), as the last divine government and the end of other governments, will utilize all existing and unknown capacities to defeat the currents of anti-righteousness and right-evasion by the government of truth. This research was conducted using the qualitative content analysis method and library resources and seeks to explain reasonable life outside the earth and the scope of the Imamate of the remnants of Allah (a.s.) over them. It seems that the existence of extraterrestrial beings cannot be denied, considering the implications of the Quran and the clarification of the narrations. On the other hand, according to the narrations, the Imam of the Age of the Pole of the World of Possibility (a.s.) has the responsibility of guidance and Imamate over all beings in all celestial spheres, from the earth to the beyond. Since the creational guardianship is the tool and prerequisite of this global management. With this guardianship, they can be influential and guide affairs throughout the universe, so divine guardianship and management in the system of creation during the periods of occultation and reappearance are in their hands.
