In today’s world, we understand the immense challenges people face. Poverty, famine, and wars of all sorts. The reality is humanity is not alone. Beyond the hopes of a savior to fill the earth with equity and justice, Imam Mahdi lives amongst us and sustains us in the darkest times – just as the sun radiates even behind the clouds. Learn more about Imam Mahdi, at the Muslim Convention, and see how he is truly our Living Hope.
