However, they are trustworthy, truthful and loyal.

However, they are trustworthy, truthful and loyal. I also find people who consider you as their guardians and \u2018A\u2019immah -asws but are not trustworthy, loyal and truthful.\u2019 \n \u2018Abu\u2019 Abd Allah -asws then sat in an upright position and turned to me as if upset, and then said, \u2018One who follows the religion of Allah -azwj under the guardianship of an unjust imam who does not possesses Divine Authority, has no religion.

One who follows the religion of Allah -azwj under the guardianship of an Imam -asws who is just in his dealings and possesses Divine Authority, will suffer no negative effect.\u2019 \n \u2018I then asked: \u2018Do those, in fact, have no religion, and these face no destruction?\u2019 The Imam -asws said: \u2018That is correct.

Those have no religion and these face no destruction.\u2019 Then, the Imam -asws said: \u2018Have you not heard the words of Allah -azwj : \u2018Allah is the Guardian of the believers and it is He who takes them out of darkness into light. … \u2018 (2:257) .

It means that He -azwj Takes them out of the darkness of sins to the light of repentance and forgiveness because of their love for us -asws and their being under the guardianship of the just \u2018A\u2019immah -asws (plural of Imam) who possess Divine Authority. \n He -azwj has also said: \u2018 The Devil is the guardian of those who deny the Truth and he leads them from light to darkness …. \u2018 (2:257) .

It means that they were in the light of Islam but when they accepted the guardianship and the leadership of every unjust imam who possessed no authority from Allah -azwj their guardianship took them out of the \u2018Noor\u2019 of Islam to the darkness of disbelief (Kufr). Allah -azwj then Made it necessary for them to suffer in Fire along with the unbelievers, \u2018 … these are the dwellers of hell wherein they will live forever (2:257) \u2019.
