The idea of the existence of a model once and for all for human-being is the product of the imagination of modern utopias. This kind of imagination has mobilized all political philosophies to the quest for eventually establishing this model. Modern ideologies have tried to mobilize the masses for the efforts of restoring back this model. However, as much as people have thought to have approached the fulfillment of this model, they have been disappointed for they indeed have realized the fact that this closeness is just an illusion. The attempts to restore a historical experience assumed as once and for all are typified as Zionism. The strive of the Jews for restoring their motherland on the base of being “promised” has caused much pains for humanity, and a melancholia filled of tension on themselves. In fact, however, it is impossible to catch back that imagined model. Islamic philosophy of history is assumed to take hijrah as its existential base and by so doing it proposes more realistic and touchable experience. Thus, it is argued in this article that Islam does not sacrifice the real for the sake of an imagined Zion, a promised golden age or ideal experience so that it put the political against the melancholia.
