Then, how was it unknown by the Prophet’s companions to say, “The judgment is not yours, O Ali”? Imam Ali (a.s.) reveals to us that they knew the truth, but they wanted the untruth by raising this doubt. Allah the Almighty says in His Book: If you judge, judge between them with equity. Qur'an, 5:42 Surely, Allah commands you to give over trusts to their owners and that when you judge between people you judge with justice….
Qur'an, 4:58 Surely, We have revealed the Book to you with the truth that you may judge between people by means of that which Allah has taught you… Qur'an, 4:105 O Dawud! Surely, We have made you a ruler in the land; so judge between men with justice. Qur'an, 38:26 And that you should judge between them by what Allah has revealed, and do not follow their desires. Qur'an, 5:49 But no! by your Lord!
they do not believe (in reality) until they make you a judge of that which has become a matter of disagreement among them, and then do not find any straightness in their hearts as to what you have decided and they submit with entire submission. Qur'an, 4:65 Surely We revealed the Torah in which was guidance and light; with it the prophets …judged . Qur'an, 5:44 .
After this and through these Qur’anic verses, it becomes clear to us that the mission of the Kharijites was of truth but they did not want it except through untruth and to raise sedition among naive people, who did not know the actual objective of the Sharia. The same can be said about the mission of the Wahabis. It is a mission of truth, but they do not want it except through untruth with which they deceive simple people, who do not know the actual objectives of the Sharia.
They claim that they alone are the true monotheists and the others are polytheists because they call upon human beings with Allah. It is true when they say, “Allah has said - The mosques are Allah’s; therefore, call not upon any one with Allah. Qur'an, 72:18 Say: I only call upon my Lord, and I do not associate any one with Him.
Qur'an, 72: 20 But they intend the untruth when they prohibit the supplicating to Allah with intercession of the Prophet and his immaculate progeny (peace be on them) and deceive people, claiming that this is a kind of polytheism.
