This will not happen until people with stone cold hearts will come and fill the earth with cruelty and tyranny. And few among my Shias, will make claims of meeting with me but, whoever claims to see me before the aggression of Safani, he will be a big liar and filthy accuser. First, we can easily see that there were deputy of representatives of Imam -asws (four in total) and second, there will be no deputy of any kind until the re-appearance of Imam-e-Zaman -asws .

[37] So all these ‘Niab-e-Imam’ and even so-called ‘Imam’ are self-selected pretentious titles, without any real meanings and any relevance to and or endorsement of Imam-e-Zaman -asws . During the early days of ‘major Occultation’, Imam-e-Zaman -asws ’s loyal scholar were quite content with their humble status and titles, i.e., (Mulla Mohammed Baqir Majlasi, Sheikh Yaqub Kulani, Sheikh Sadduq, Syed Murtaza).

Any mujtahid, preset or past, can never ever dare to equate himself with the devout services and breadth of knowledge of above mentioned shia scholars. Final Word – the Solution! Having said all this, reader may ask what is the solution? How one can find the authentic traditions of Masomeen -asws relevant to our day-to-day issues?

All the required knowledge, until the Day of Judgement, has been transferred to us by the Masomeen -asws , any argument creating an element of doubt (i.e., our books were burnt in Baghdad) [38] would be against our basic belief that Masomeen -asws did not leave behind adequate ‘guideline lines’ (traditions) which would be followed by their Shia during the time of major occultation of Imam-e-Zaman -asws , or all or part of those traditions were lost (Nouzobillah!).

Unless we vigorously deny these myths, we are along the lines of Sunnis, who are convinced that Prophet Mohammed -saw did not leave behind his vicegerent who would lead his followers after him [39] .

Having established a firm belief that whatever was required by followers of Rasool Allah -saw has been revealed in the Book of Allah -azwj and Ahadith of Masomeen -asws , we endeavour to cite traditions of Masomeen -asws related to the plausible questions which may arise in this context: Whatever people need is present in Quran and Traditions?
