So if they formed a consensus upon a man and named him as an imam, there was (supposed) to be a Pleasure for Allah -azwj with that. So if he were to exit from their matter, either by an objection or an innovation, he would be returned to what he had exited from. So if he were to refuse, they would kill upon (an accusation) that he follows other than the way of the Momineen [4:115] , and (thus), Allah -azwj Turned him to what he had turned towards.
