“Al-Fusul al-Muhimma” articulates a plethora of attributes ascribed to the Imams, ranging from their infallibility to their moral rectitude. This section invites reflection on the interplay between human agency and divine decree. If the Imams embody perfection in virtue, does this imply an unattainable ideal for ordinary believers? Furthermore, how does the perception of infallibility influence the community’s interaction with contemporary leadership figures?
The text systematically categorizes the attributes into sections that enhance understanding, listing qualities such as knowledge (‘ilm), piety (taqwa), and justice (adl). Each characteristic can serve as a model for personal conduct and communal life, positioning the Imams as exemplars for which Shia Muslims aspire to emulate.
