Why only God should determines Imam?
[Once I was at Imam al-Askari (pbuh)’s house]. I asked his son; [Imam] Mahdi (mgehr),
âWhy arenât people permitted to choose their Imam by themselves?â
He stated, âWho do you mean? A righteous or a corrupted Imam”?
I said, âI mean the Imam and leader who is righteous.â
He stated, âYou are not aware of other people’s thoughts!â
