Imam Ali (AS) said, They are the supports of Islam and those entrusted with its protection. Through them the truth is restored in its rightful place and falsehood is removed from its position with its tongue is severed from its root. They have understood religion through reflection and contemplation, not by mere hearsay and [blind following of] what is narrated.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : هُمْ دَعائِمُ الإسْلامِ وَ وَلائِجُ الإعْتِصامِ بِهِمْ عادَ الحَقُّ في نِصابِهِ وَانْزاحَ الباطِلُ عَنْ مُقامِهِ وَ انْقَطَعَ لِسانُهُ مِنْ مَنْبَتِهِ عَقَلُوا الدِّينَ عَقْلَ وِعايَة وَرِعايَة لاعَقْلَ سَماع وَ رِوايَة
