[Pooya/Ali Commentary 20:135] Refer to the commentary of Bara-at: 52. After showing the right path and identifying the divinely commissioned guides to be followed after the Holy Prophet a general respite was given to the people, with a free choice to either follow the right guides (Imams) identified by Allah and His last prophet, or go astray and choose those guides who will lead to hell. Call to mind that which has been mentioned in the commentary of several verses so far studied from al Fatihah to this surah to establish clearly and positively the imamah and wilayah of Ali ibn abi Talib and the Imams of Ahl ul Bayt in his progeny (the twelve divinely chosen and appointed guides) and then read the following verses: Say: "Of your associate-gods, is there any who can guide to the truth?" Say: "It is Allah who guides to the truth. Is then He who guides to the truth more worthy to be followed, or he who cannot find the right path unless he is guided? What ails you? How (ill) you judge?" (YUNUS: 35) Is he who goes groping on his face more rightly guided, or he who walks upright on straight path? (MULK: 22) Verily, We have shown him (man) the way, whether he be grateful (follow the guidance), or ungrateful (disobey). (DAHR: 3)
