He has blessed us with Quran and Quran is going to follow us in such a way that neither we will depart from it nor Quran will deviate from us. As per Rasool Allah -saww ‘s tradition, we will (be together) until we both meet Rasool Allah -saww at the Spring of Kausor. Hence only one sect out of 73 will manage to escape the hell-fire, which is worst then all turmoil, troubles and is beyond one’s imagination.

(Our followers) are indeed destined for paradise, they are only 70,000 in numbers and will enter into paradise without being quizzed (on deeds). All the remaining ones are on the wrong path and are aides to Satin. Satin and his associates have taught them and they are the enemies of God -azwj , Prophet -saww and momaneens [6] .

They will be sent to hell fire without any judgement/reservation, they have noting to do with Allah -azwj and Rasool -saww , they have worshiped others along with Him -azwj and hence committed ‘Shirk’ and have became non-believers. Although they assume that they are on the right path as they take oaths in front of you. They will also say the same on the day of Judgement, O! Lord -azwj , we swear by Your Name, we were not among ‘Mushriks’, they will keep reiterating these words.

They have the perception that they have proofs to support their beliefs but be aware! They are liars. Amir-ul-momaneen -asws was asked. How about that fellow who neither obeyed you nor kept any grudges against you and remained in the state of ‘Intermission’ [7] ? And never committed anything to annoy you but did not love you and rejected your enemies? Amir-ul-momaneen -asws replied, ‘I do not agree that such a person exits’, if so (we assume there is one) then he is not among those 73 sects.

Rasool Allah -saww has mentioned 73 sects, among them are the deserters (in majority) and a successful one ‘ The Naji’ [8] . The others are those who have first made themselves famous and then started inviting people to their faith. Only one among (these sects) has truly embraced Allah -azwj ’s ‘Deen’ [9] , whereas the remaining 72 are the followers of Satin’s teachings, Satin really likes them and fights against all those who reject the 72 sects.

Imam -asws explained, if a person believed in One God, has faith in Rasool Allah -saww but was not aware of our ‘Wilayat’ (mastership), was unaware of our enemies, kept hinging onto the unjust faith but did not invent a new religion, neither converted hallal into harram nor harram into hallal.
