1168 - المُضِلُّونَ‏

1168. THOSE WHO LEAD OTHERS ASTRAY

3754.الإمامُ عليٌّ عليه السلام : إنَّ شَرَّ الناسِ عندَ اللَّهِ إمامٌ جائرٌ ضَلَّ وضُلَّ بهِ، فَأماتَ سُنَّةً مأخوذَةً (مَعلومَةً)، وأحيا بِدعَةً مَتروكَةً .1

3754.Imam Ali (AS) said, ‘Verily the most evil of people in the sight of Allah is the tyrannical leader who himself has gone astray and through whom others go astray. He abolishes established practices and revives abandonned innovations.’2

3755.الإمامُ عليٌّ عليه السلام : إنّ أبغَضَ الخَلائقِ إلى اللَّهِ رَجُلانِ : رَجُلٌ وَكَلَهُ اللَّهُ إلى‏ نَفسِهِ، فهُو جائرٌ عَن قَصدِ السَّبيلِ، مَشغوفٌ بكَلامِ بِدعَةٍ ودُعاءِ ضَلالَةٍ، فهُو فِتنَةٌ لِمَنِ افتُتِنَ بهِ، ضالٌّ عن هَديِ مَن كانَ قَبلَهُ، مُضِلٌّ لِمَنِ اقتَدى‏ بهِ في حَياتِهِ وبعدَ وَفاتِهِ، حَمّالُ خَطايا غَيرِهِ، رَهنٌ (رَهِينٌ) بخَطيئَتهِ .3

3755.Imam Ali (AS) said, ‘Verily the most detested of all people in the sight of Allah are two: the man whom Allah has relegated to his own carnal self, so he has deviated from the straight path and is passionately fond of talking about innovations and misguiding others towards the wrong path. He tempts those who are charmed by him. He himself has strayed away from the guidance of his predecessors, and misleads those who follow him during his life as well as after his death. He carries the burden of others’ sins and is entangled in his own misdeeds…’4

3756.الإمامُ عليٌّ عليه السلام - في صِفةِ المنافقينَ - : اُحَذِّرُكُم أهلَ النِّفاقِ؛ فإنّهُمُ الضالُّونَ المُضِلُّونَ، والزّالُّونَ المُزِلُّونَ .5

3756.Imam Ali (AS) said in his description of the hypocrites, ‘I warn you against the hypocrites, for verily they are themselves misguided and they misguide other people. They have slipped and they cause others to slip too.’6
