His style of relating this seems to imply that he also believes in this interpretation. Banu Amin attributes this verse to the hereafter and all that we cannot perceive through our senses, but also to the occultation of the Mahdi that she explains in more weighty terms. Tabataba’i gives a broad meaning to the verse, implicitly suggesting that the Mahdi may be one among many other meanings embedded within the verse.

In the tafsir of the Qur’an 34:51, the three authors report traditions from different sources concerning the rise of the Sufyani and his being swallowed up by the earth in Bayda at the time of the Mahdi . They thus agree that the verse concerns one of the signs of the time of the Mahdi . Concerning the Qur’an 4:159, Majma ’ discusses the faith of the People of the Book in ‘Isa, suggesting that it concerns the time of the Mahdi 's reappearance. Al-Mizan offers the same tafsir as Majma’.

The author of Makhzan does not mention the Mahdi in her tafsir . In the Qur’an 8: 39, Tabarsi and Tabataba’i confirm that the verse refers to the time of the Mahdi , and that the people of the time of the Mahdi will understand the ta’wil of this verse. Banu Amin does not offer an interpretation of this verse. For the Qur’an 9: 33, Tabarsi sees the verse as a prediction of the Qur’an and interprets it as concerning the time of the reappearance of the Mahdi .

Tabataba’i interprets it without doubt as the rise of the al-Qa’im and reports this tafsir from several commentators. The Makhzan al-‘Irfan offers no interpretation for this verse. For the Qur’an 11: 8, Majma ’ considers the verse as referring to the Mahdi and his while al-Mizan confirms Majma's tafsir and those of other mufassirin . The Makhzan offers no interpretation concerning the Mahdi .

For the Qur’an 41: 53, al-Mizan reports two tafsir s concerning this verse and considers one of the two as concerning the Mahdi according to references gleaned from other commentators. The Majma ’ and the Makhzan have no tafsir for this verse. In the Qur’an 48: 28, Tabarsi reports two interpretations for the verse, one of them concerning the time of the Mahdi 's reappearance. Al-Mizan and Makhzan offer no tafsir concerning the verse.

The Qur’an 97: 5, and the Qur’an 61: 9, are only interpreted by Banu Amin as concerning the Mahdi . Neither al-Mizan nor Majma ’ offer an interpretation concerning the Mahdi .
