Futures studies, as an emerging field of knowledge, addresses the future of societies. This knowledge seeks to identify, invent, present, test, and evaluate possible and probable futures in order to choose the preferred future based on the values of society and help in building the most optimal future. Islamic futures studies follow the same goal, centered around Islamic teachings. Islamic texts, particularly books like the Holy Quran and Nahj al-Balagha, discuss various types of desirable and undesirable futures, detailing the preferred future and explaining how to achieve the desired future while avoiding the undesirable one. In this paper, written using a documentary and analytical-descriptive method, the future is examined from the perspective of Nahj al-Balagha. In Nahj al-Balagha, the future is divided into two types: deterministic (certain) future and non-deterministic (uncertain) future. The deterministic future includes the Resurrection, the Return (Raj'ah), the return of the righteous, and the appearance of the Savior. It is beyond the control, planning, and choice of individuals and societies; however, it cannot be excluded from futures studies because individuals and societies have the freedom to choose how to confront these inevitable futures. Planning for how to achieve the desirable deterministic futures is part of this knowledge. Non-deterministic futures, which are further divided into divinely hidden non-deterministic futures and rational-pragmatic non-deterministic futures, refer to futures shaped by human intervention, choice, and planning, and there is no doubt that futures studies apply to them. In Nahj al-Balagha, Imam Ali (AS) refers to all the types of futures mentioned above.
