WE BELIEVE that the traditions and orders of the innocent Emams are all taken from the prophet, through their fathers, and are all to be obeyed. There is a famous tradition related by successive witnesses:_
I have left among you two heavy things to prevent you being misled:_ The Book of Allah and my nearest KINS.(1) On the other hand, whatever the siants have said, are narrations from the prophet: The prophet foresaw the future and to solve its problems, laid the key in the hands of his nearest kins, and THE BOOK OF ALLAH; and how can a true Muslim ignore such a firm and important Hadis!? if the above tradition was considered precisely, our present difficulties in faith, comments, and the disputes in jurisprudence, would not exist.
