Message to the sincere Shia
you guys and Christians have the same issue, providing vague verses to prove imamate and trinity. Can you provide us with a verse mentioning 12 imams, let alone their names? We are confused here due to the fact that there are some shias that believe that there are more imams and some believe there are less? I'm pretty sure you don't need Sistani on the day of judgement. You should be able to provide this to us easily since it's one of the main differences between the two of us.
You are blinded by your false faith so you automatically go into attack mode. The main difference between me and you is the belief in 12 divinely appointed imams. I'm just asking you to provide clear evidence fron the Quran.
Now before you go on and attack other irrelevant differences between us, let me be clear. The belief in divinely appointed imams is not the same as other small issues such as not agreeing with saying Ameen (which many Shia scholars consider to be fine) or preferring Ali claiming he was the most beloved companion. If this was the only difference between us then I would not argue with you and we would have been brothers with different opinions.
But when it comes to aqeedah then it must have proof from what we both agree on, I assume, the Quran. All I'm asking is where are these divinely appointed imams (12 of them) mentioned? I'm not debating with you, I'm just asking you a simple question. If you can't and you will never be able to give a verse (since it doesn't exist), then please open your heart and mind and ask yourself how you will answer to Allah on the judgement day.
Number is important because there are other shias that believe in different numbers of imams. Asking a shia about evidence of imamate is like asking Christians about evidence of trinity, you both struggle and interpret verses to justify your false beliefs.
You will be questioned on the day of judgement so fear the day you will be questioned about these false beliefs.
The Christians, when questioning their beliefs, resort to misinterpreting the Quran to justify their own beliefs. Strange.
I invite you to leave that falsehood and come to the truth. Read the Quran without shia or sunni perspective and you will see the truth.
Ask yourself if a non Muslim reads Quran will they be guided towards wilaya or imamah? I don't want to argue with you but instead discuss with you to realise the truth and falsehood of Shiism. Let's unite together under what was revealed to the prophet صلى الله عليه و سلم
Now, we will demonstrate that the Shīʿahs are obligated to provide evidence from the Qurʾān alone to support their fabricated foundations.
Narration 1:
Ahmad ibn Muhammad narrated to us from ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn Abī Najrān from Yunus ibn Yaʿqūb from al-Ḥasan ibn al-Mughīrah from ʿAbd al-Aʿlā and ʿUbaydah ibn Bashīr, who said:
Abū ʿAbd Allāh (ʿalayhi al-salām) said:
“Starting from myself, by Allāh, indeed I know what is in the heavens, what is in the earth, what is in al-jannah (Paradise), what is in al-nār (the Fire), what has been, and what will be until the establishment of the sāʿah (the Hour).”
Then he said:
“I know this from the Book of Allāh. I look at it like this,” then he spread out his palms and said:
“Indeed, Allāh says:
(Indeed, We have sent down to you the Book in which is the clarification of everything.)”
[Basaʾir al-Darajāt, vol. 1, pg. 351]
Narration 2:
And from him, from ʿAlī ibn Ḥadīd from Marāzim from Abū ʿAbd Allāh (ʿalayhi al-salām), who said:
“Indeed, Allāh, Blessed and Exalted (tabāraka wa-taʿālā), has revealed in the Qurʾān the clarification (tibyān) of everything. By Allāh, He has not left anything that the servants need except that He has revealed it in the Qurʾān.
No servant (ʿabd) can say, ‘If only this had been revealed in the Qurʾān,’ except that Allāh has already revealed it therein.”
[al-Maḥāsin, vol. 1, pg. 416]
