| Abstract | ||
| Anyone who is familiar with doctrine’s truth of extremist Sufism and the truth of the doctrines of extremist Shiism will find that the two doctrines stem from almost the same origin and ultimately aim at one goal and share the general beliefs and laws that each of them impersonates. Both extremist Shiites and Sufis claim that they have special knowledge that distinguishes them from all other Muslim sects, and they are not accessible to the public. One of the most dangerous issues to which both extremist Sufis and Shiites are exposed is the issue of guardianship. What the Shiites claim about their imams is the same as what the Sufis claim about their guardians. The doctrine of the extremists of Sufis and Shiites was built on the belief that the imams and saints are people chosen by God Almighty to lead the nation after the Messenger, and that they therefore possess special worldly knowledge, and therefore they don’t make mistakes or forget, and they have their status before God which they deserved by merit, gift, specialization, and observance. Then they went to extremes in These imams made them gods and lords in every sense of the word. Hence, the wrong interpretations of the concept of guardianship among extremist Sufis and Shiites have opened a wide door through which many evils have entered upon Muslims, such as the glorification of the imams of extremist Sufis and Shiites, added to many misguidances, deviations, and heresies that may expel their owner from Islam. | ||
