Nice to see you again Sayed may Allah protect you inshAllah

Welcome back

[@MM-rb6lu]

The very fact that our Shia brothers and sisters reject Muawiya and the evil Ummayad Dynasty founded by Muawiya outright clearly indicate that they truly honor our beloved Rasulullah and Ahlul Bait. 🎉Countless UnQuranic absurdities have been attributed to our beloved Rasulullah by the scoundrel Muawiya and his cronies. These outrageous absurdities abound in Ibn Katheer, Bukhari etc. 😢

[@rouhoullahdiomande3970]

Surah 17 Verse 71 : "The day (of Judgement), We'll call each people with their Imams".

It is a hadith from Holy Prophet (S).

Asalamualikum Warahmatullah, is it possible for you to make more videos on supposed tahrif of the quran, specifically hadith from imam Mohammad Baqir, for example the hadith that states the removal of Amir ul Mumineen from the quran

[@alawibhb]

Just a quick question here, If the justice ('Adl) of Allah (SWT) necessitates the presence of an external source of guidance (Hujjah) to counteract the external force of misguidance (Shaytan), what about communities that did not directly receive guidance from a Hujjah? For instance, in the case of Prophet Ibrahim (AS), he was sent to guide a specific group of people. How, then, would others, who could not physically experience the guidance of Prophet Ibrahim (AS) or Prophet Muhammad (SAWW), contend with the external influence of Shaytan? Is the guidance of a Hujjah not confined to their physical presence, just as their sustenance to the world is not limited by it? If so, how does the guidance of a Hujjah reach those who are physically distant from them?

[@salihtuma7195]

It's a good question but you have to remember that there isn't a group of people that guidance hasn't reached as we have 26 prophets named but a total of 124000 prophets sent down. Today, guidance is not beyond reach as everything is online.

[@alawibhb]

@ Thank you for your response. However, I believe there’s been a misunderstanding. My question wasn’t about whether or not guidance reaches all people, as I fully acknowledge that Allah (SWT) has sent 124,000 Prophets and continues to guide humanity. Rather, my inquiry is about the mechanism through which the guidance of a Hujjah (Divine Proof) reaches those who are physically distant from them. For example, when Prophet Ibrahim (AS) or Prophet Muhammad (SAWW) were sent to specific communities, how did their guidance counteract external misguidance for individuals outside their physical proximity? Is it correct to say that the influence of a Hujjah extends beyond their immediate presence in a way similar to how sustenance is distributed universally?

[@Thaqlain]

Salaam Alaykum. The need for guidance to reach everyone would have been a part of Allah's justice if those unable to experience guidance were judged without considering their ignorance. However, that is not the case. What Sayed is trying to explain here is that as long as there is a physical presence of evil on Earth, it is necessary for Allah's justice that a source of goodness is also present in some form, even if not all people can benefit from His guidance.

[@alawibhb]

@@Thaqlain Wa Alaikum Salaam. Thanks for your response! But my question is: if external forces like Shaytan affect everyone, how is it fair for communities without access to a Hujjah to face external evil without external guidance? Is the guidance of a Hujjah not bound to their physical presence, or is external deviation not judged at all, and only actions stemming from the nafs are taken into account since they lacked an external guide?

[@Thaqlain]

Indeed it's the second case. Their external deviation won't be judged. So for example, if someone lives in a remote village with no access to external guidance, he won't be judged by Allah on this matter as this is beyond his capacity. We have covered this to some extent in the chapter related to Allah's justice.

Many people are not guided and are promoting ideas of holidays not revealed to the prophets. This year they are using them to speculate about the End Times, but we in Islam have plenty of guidance to not fall into such and Divine Justice implies that there was always enough of the guidance being lived and passed on.

[@nf2458]

But there have been almost 1,200 years now without a physical living imam present on earth, the only creed to attest to a present physical living imam is the Ismaili sect. How do you reconcile your very well made points in this video with the last nearly 1,200 years? Thank you in advance.

[@Thaqlain]

Salaam Alaykum. An Imam must possess certain qualities that extend beyond mere lineage and physical presence. For instance, the Imam should be the most knowledgeable person, drawing from divine sources rather than worldly ones. These qualities, among others, are often not found in the Imams of Ismailism. In addition to the well-documented Ghayba of Imam Mahdi, which is supported by narrations from the Prophet and earlier Imams of Ahlulbayt, we have logically demonstrated in the forthcoming episodes that physical presence does not necessarily guarantee the ability to see the Imam.

[@nf2458]

@Thaqlain Whilst your first point can be refuted, I'll have a search for those later videos reconciling this physical dichotomy. Thanks.

[@Thaqlain]

We will urge you to watch the Prophethood and Imamah chapter as well. Because they explore the qualities of divine representatives in detail.
