They command the people for obedience of Allah and restrain them from His disobedience. They introduce the divine command and religion to them. He sent down the Book on them and sent angels towards them so that they may be mediums and channels between the Almighty and the prophets. Among the prophets there is someone for whom Allah made the fire, cool and mercy and made him His friend and confidant.
Among them was one such that Allah spoke with him emphatically and openly made his staff into a python. Someone from them is such that enlivened the dead and cured the born blind and the leper. Someone from them is such that Allah taught him the language of the birds and he was given everything. And after that He sent His Eminence, Muhammad (a.s) the mercy for the worlds. And by him He completed the favor and ended the series of prophets and sent him for all the people of the world.
And (he) demonstrated and explained his truthfulness, his signs and his prophethood to the people. At last, he, who was a praiser of Allah Almighty, fortunate and successful, he also met his Lord. On this point, he entrusted the affairs to his brother, cousin, legatee and inheritor, that is Ali Ibne Abi Talib (a.s) and after that to his successors from the sons of His Eminence one after the other. And revived His religion and perfected His light through them.
He accorded them a clear distinction among their brothers, cousins and other family members so that they may be recognized as the proof of Allah and leaders among the common people. In such a way that He made them (Prophet and his legatees) free of all sins and defects and pure from impurity. And also, the Almighty Allah made them the custodians of His knowledge and wisdom and the center of His secrets and confidential matters and supported them with proofs and arguments.
And if He had not done so, all the people would have been same from all aspects indeed; truth and falsehood, knowledgeable and ignorant would not have been distinguished. Therefore, know that this false man has associated falsehood to the Almighty God. And that what he claims (in this letter) is falsehood and fabrication, I don’t know on what he relies to prove his claima On his deep understanding of the religion of Goda By Allah!
He is not capable to discriminate between legal and illegal and incorrect from correct.
