A Person Without An Imam Appointed By Allah

بسم الله الواحد القهار

Sheikh Hadi An-Najafi:

Al-Kulayni narrated from a number of our scholars from Ahmad Ibn Mohammad Ibn Khalid from Ibn Abi Nasr from Abil Hasan ( عليه السلام ) about the statement of Allah, Mighty and Majestic: "And who is more erring than he who follows his low desires without any guidance from Allah?" He said: "It refers to a person who takes his own opinion as his religion without  ( taking guidance from) an Imam from the Imams of Guidance."

Grading: its chain is Sahih (authentic).
