Qualifications of Wilayat al-Faqih 3item Concerning the issue of Guardianship of the Jurist are the following arguments, please enlighten: The Prophet has been entitled the status of wilayat for his infallibility and wahy-based knowledge. Given the Shia belief regarding the infallibility of the Shia Imams (free from mistake, inaccuracy and divine knowledge) entitling them with welayat due to their knowledge and infallibility is reasonable. Now in this context, how is it possible for a person to be accredited with Welayat Faqih when he isn’t infallible and as knowledgeable as the Imams nor is he protected from mistake! How is it acceptable to give someone who doesn’t possess any qualities such as infallibility and wahy the authority of God, His Prophet and Imams? He has not been chosen by an Infallible Imam nor is he safe from mistake! Can a non-jurist serve as an Islamic ruler acting on judgments produced by his contemporary religious scholars and jurists? What will be fate of an Islamic state if there is no qualified jurist?
