it would not have endured the preservation of anything, and that light is inscribed like the inscription in a garment, and it is His saying, the Exalted:
[And he for whom God has not made a light - for him there is no light] 1 , and by this light the judge judges with truth, and by his departure from this light he judges with falsehood, as it was said: Among them are Imams who guide to falsehood, and Imams who guide to the Truth, Possessor of Majesty and Honor.
[5]Just as our master, the Commander of the Faithful, His glory is magnificent, said: The best of God's servants is a just Imam [who was guided and who guided] 2 , so he established a known Sunnah and destroyed an [unknown] 3 [innovation] 4 . [And indeed, the Sunnahs are illuminating, having clear signs, and indeed, innovations are manifest, having clear signs] 5 . And indeed, the worst of people in the sight of God is a tyrannical Imam, who destroyed an [accepted] 6 Sunnah [and established] 7 an abandoned innovation.
