I have a question about Imam Mahdi. I read that every Imam has to be buried by another Imam and that when the 12th Imam dies apparently Imam Hussein will come back to bury him. My question is, how will Imam Mahdi’s death happen and how will the burial be? Will we be able to witness Imam Hussein as burying him?
We don’t have many details of the events. What some narrations say is that the Imam will be killed and Imam Hussayn will wash his body and bury him. Some narrations suggest he will be killed. If we are alive at the time perhaps we will see.
