15:15 Prophets are the explainers of revelations
Explanation of the revelation by the prophets is binding on the people
17:55 Is unconditional obedience to the Prophet necessary?
Quran: \"We haven’t sent a prophet that he shouldn\'t be obeyed\"
Allama Tabatabie commentary on obedience
Obey the prophets in the aspect of him being a law giver
Obedience in the aspect of social and political rule
25:35 Is the sunnah of the Prophet binding on us?
Words of the Prophet
Actions of the Prophet

QA about Imam Mahdi (AS): Is the Mahdi a Concept Made-up by the Shia Scholars? - English

Due to the importance of this concept, there are thousands of narrations from Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and each of the Shia Imams about Imam Mahdi, his occultation, and his reappearance. The belief in Imam Mahdi has been an essential part of Shia theology since the time of the Prophet. There are many historical records and narrations to validate his Imamat and occultation. The Shia scholars had spread the narrations about Imam Mahdi even before his birth. Some of them also authored specific books about Imam Mahdi and his occultation. The names of about 30 such books, written before the birth of Imam Mahdi, are available in history. For example, Fazl ibn Shazan, a great scholar in Khorasan who passed away during the Imamat of Imam Askari, wrote multiple books about Imam Mahdi and his occultation.
The belief in the Mahdi is not just specific to the Shia Muslims; all the Muslims believe in the Mahdi, who is from the Prophet’s descendants. There are various narrations from Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) about the Mahdi, which have been recorded in top narration books of the Sunni sect of Islam. The Sunni scholars have also authored various books about the Mahdi throughout history. Many non-Shia Muslims have tried to misuse the concept of the Mahdi to their own benefit throughout history. They would not have tried to misuse this concept if it was not important and well-known to the Muslims. For example, Mansur, the second Abbasid Caliph, named his son Muhammad and called him by the title of Mahdi. Mahdi then replaced his father as the third Abbasid Caliph. Other examples of famous people who falsely claimed to be the Mahdi in our contemporary time are Muhammad Ahmad in Sudan, Ali Muhammad Bab in Iran, Mirza Ghulam Ahmad in India, and Muhammad ibn Abdullah al-Qahtani in Saudi Arabia.

Muawiya ibn Abi Sufyan\\\'s hatred for Imam Ali - Seyyid Kamal Haydari [ENG SUBS]

In this segment we attempt to bring to light the true face of Mu\'awiya ibn Abi Sufyan. A man who is praised by so many Muslims. Given the title of \"Ameerul Mo\'mineen\" by certain Muslims.
This segment focusses on his attitude towards Imam Ali (as) from Authentic Narrations only.
We find that there is an overwhelming number of Authentic Narrations about his hatred towards Imam Ali (as). His hatred led him to abuse Imam Ali (as) and order others to do so too, including ordering fellow companions.
Mu\\\'awiya\\\'s hatred for Imam Ali (as) has led to Ibn Katheer and Imam Dhahabi amongst others acknowledging that he is a Nasibi. His aiders were Nasibis and so were his companions Nawasibs.
Hating Imam Ali (as) is a sign of Hypocrisy as stated by the Beloved Prophet (saw). In fact, hating Imam Ali (as) is hating the Beloved Prophet (saw) himself and Allah (swt).
It is the same Mu\\\'awiya who fought Imam Ali (as) in the battle of Siffeen! The battle in which he caused the death of plenty Muslims including noble companions such as Ammar ibn Yasser.
Yet, despite his hatred for Imam Ali (as), his war on Imam Ali (as), his killing of Muslims and companions, his abandoning of Sunna, he is still praised by certain Muslims.
The same scholars who admit he is a Nasibi praise him.

No. The concept of a savior, referring to the one who will come to save the people from oppression and injustice, is common amongst various theologies, though they differ about who the savior is. The savior in Zoroastrianism is known as “Sosyant”, in Hinduism as “Kalki”, in Buddhism as “Maitreya”, in Judaism as “Moshiach”, and in Christianity as “Messiah”. The savior in Islam is known as “Mahdi”, and all the Muslims, regardless of their sects, believe in him. There are frequent narrations from the Prophet about the Mahdi in ‘Kutub al-Sittah’, the primary books of narrations in the Sunni sect of Islam. Also, various books have been authored throughout history by non-Shia Islamic scholars about the Mahdi. All of the Muslims believe in the Mahdi, who is from the progeny of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), and has the same name as him. The Shia Muslims believe in the Mahdi as their 12th Imam, who was born in the year 256 Hijri in Samarra, and is still alive.

The Shias refer to their scholars to interpret Islamic beliefs during the occultation. The Shias follow the Quran and the traditions of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) as the essential part of their belief. They also follow the 12 Shia Imams from the progeny of the Prophet, who continued the message of the Holy Prophet. There are no differences or contradictions between the teachings and the traditions of the Prophet and the 12 Shia Imams. Thus, the Shias are blessed to have divine guidance and teachings from the generations of 12 Imams who lived among the Muslims for about 250 years after the demise of the Prophet. There are countless narrations from the Shia Imams about every aspect of the Islamic teachings and laws. The history of these 12 holy individuals is full of wisdom for any person’s life, with lessons for overcoming any challenges. The Shia theology is unique among the other Muslim sects in having access to the precious historical resources from the Prophet and the 12 Imams. As a result, the Shias are proud of having a doctrine in every aspect of the Islamic sciences.
The massive collection of the narrations and historical records from the Prophet and the 12 Shia Imams have survived through history. They are used by Shia scholars in seminaries to defend the Islamic principles and to respond to any new questions regarding Islamic laws. The Shia Imams would always encourage their followers to refer to the trusted Shia scholars for their Islamic affairs. The efforts of the Shia Imams in training scholars, spreading their knowledge, and establishing a network organization of their representatives among the Shia communities were all towards preparing the Shias for their future. This policy was also approved and prescribed by Imam Mahdi. In one of his letters during the minor occultation, Imam Mahdi explicitly referred his Shia followers to the scholars by writing, “In the events that happen, refer to the narrators of our traditions (scholars), because they are my proof upon you, and I am God’s proof upon them.”. Thus, the Shias refer to their scholars to acquire their Islamic knowledge and interpretations during the occultation.
