In other words the Holy Imams explained to the people the divine laws they had received from the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) and they made them aware of the foundations and meanings of the holy religion. It is said that if the one explaining the laws of religion is not infallible the people will not be able to completely rely on him and trust his words and the aim of selecting him will not be realized.

Second Human beings due to their natural makeup and circumstances and as result of their carnality are always involved in a tussle and contradictions. This matter could be perceived through conscience and can also be seen with the eyes. Therefore it is the demand of divine grace that for removal of conflicts and differences He must appoint someone who is perfectly cognizant of the reality and facts so that people may refer to him in every age and take his help in their conflicts and problems.

And as a result everyone will obtain their rights and divine justice shall be established among the people. One whom the Almighty Allah selected for removing differences and conflicts is that same Imam to whom the people are obliged and to whom they must refer in their different matters and they must rely upon him.

If you have a doubt that: The Holy Imams (as) during their times never commanded except on the basis of apparent rules, and in other words they issued orders according to the same set of rules that religious scholars follow in the period of the occultation of the Imam. Then how can it be claimed that it is demand of divine grace to appoint the Imam so that he may act on the reality and facts? I say: This practice was due to the obstacle from the side of the people themselves.

Such that the obstacle of the reappearance of the Imam was also from the people’s side. Thus in such circumstances no objection could be made against them and in no way could one imagine such a matter to be opposed to divine grace.

That which proves this claim are traditional reports that are related from themselves and which explain clearly that if they are given absolute rulership and caliphate comes to them with authority over the world they would govern according to the system of Prophet Dawood and they would make the realities known to the people.
