85, h 1 Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad fromMuhammad ibn Sinan from abu Salam from Sawra ibn kulayb who has said the following: "Once I asked abu Ja'far, recipient of divine supreme covenant, about the words of Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Gracious: 'On the Day of Judgment you will see the faces of those who had invented falsehood against Allah blackened. . . .' (39:60) The Imam said, 'It refers to those who claim to be the Imam but in fact, are not the Imam.

' "I then asked, 'Even if he is of the descendents of Ali, recipient of divine supreme covenant?' He replied, 'Yes, even if he is of the descendents of Ali, recipient of divine supreme covenant.' I then asked, 'Even if he is of the sons of Ali ibn abu Talib, recipient of divine supreme covenant?' He said, 'Yes, even if he is as such.'" This is also found in Tafseer Qummi, Tafseer Ayyashi and Tafseer Saafi for these Verses: [Shakir 28:41] And We made them Imams who call to the fire, and on the day of resurrection they shall not be assisted.

[Shakir 28:42] And We caused a curse to follow them in this world, and on the day of resurrection they shall be of those made to appear hideous. AL KAFI - H 952, Ch.

I will forgive all those (citizens) who live a religious life in Islam with belief in and acknowledgement of the guardianship of an Imam who is just in his dealings and possesses authority from Allah, even though such followers in their dealings are unjust sinners.'" AL KAFI - H 956, Ch.
