Holy Quran 3:33 ------------------ ۞ إِنَّ اللَّهَ اصْطَفَىٰ آدَمَ وَنُوحًا وَآلَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَآلَ عِمْرَانَ عَلَى الْعَالَمِينَ
Indeed, Allah chose Adam and Noah and the family of Abraham and the family of 'Imran over the worlds - Holy Quran 3:34 ------------------ ذُرِّيَّةً بَعْضُهَا مِن بَعْضٍ ۗ وَاللَّهُ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيمٌ Descendants, some of them from others. And Allah is Hearing and Knowing. Holy Quran 32:23 ------------------ وَلَقَدْ آتَيْنَا مُوسَى الْكِتَابَ فَلَا تَكُن فِي مِرْيَةٍ مِّن لِّقَائِهِ ۖ وَجَعَلْنَاهُ هُدًى لِّبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ And We certainly gave Moses the Scripture, so do not be in doubt over his meeting. And we made the Torah guidance for the Children of Israel. Holy Quran 32:24 ------------------ وَجَعَلْنَا مِنْهُمْ أَئِمَّةً يَهْدُونَ بِأَمْرِنَا لَمَّا صَبَرُوا ۖ وَكَانُوا بِآيَاتِنَا يُوقِنُونَ And We made from among them leaders guiding by Our command when they were patient and [when] they were certain of Our signs. Holy Quran 33:40 ------------------ مَّا كَانَ مُحَمَّدٌ أَبَا أَحَدٍ مِّن رِّجَالِكُمْ وَلَٰكِن رَّسُولَ اللَّهِ وَخَاتَمَ النَّبِيِّينَ ۗ وَكَانَ اللَّهُ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عَلِيمًا Muhammad is not the father of [any] one of your men, but [he is] the Messenger of Allah and last of the prophets. And ever is Allah, of all things, Knowing. > On 23-Aug-2022, at 7:16 PM, Henrik Ohrstrom <henrik.ohrst...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > Why would the position as religious leader be inherited? > What does the quran say about that? > /Henrik > > Den tis 23 aug. 2022 15:17Samiya Illias <samiyaill...@gmail.com> skrev: >> Prophet Muhammed was the Head of State of Medina and the surrounding Muslim >> areas. >> He was succeeded by his close companion Abu Bakr Siddiq as the first Caliph >> of the Muslim State. >> Umar became the second Caliph after him. >> Uthman became the third Caliph after Umar. >> Ali became the fourth Caliph after Uthman. >> >> All of the above had great mutual respect for each other, and worked for the >> greater good. >> >> Shias are of the opinion that Ali should have succeeded Prophet Muhammed as >> the first Caliph, as he was his cousin, and married to his daughter Fatima. >> >> The political gap between Sunnis and Shias became ugly when the Prophet’s >> grandson, Ali and Fatima’s son: Hussain was murdered at Karbala, Iraq.
