The people whom Allah has Chosen and has Made the Heirs of His Book are the Imams عليه السلام

3. Al-Husayn ibn Muhammad has narrated from Mu‘alla ibn Muhammad from al-Hassan from Ahmad ibn ‘Umar who has said that he asked abu al-Hassan al-Rida عليه السلام about the meaning of the words of Allah, the Most Holy, the Most High. “We gave the book as an inheritance to Our chosen servants. .” (35:31). The Imam عليه السلام said such people are the children of Fatima عليه السلام, those exceeding in virtue are the Imams عليه السلام, the moderate ones are those who know the Imam عليه السلام and those who do injustice to themselves are the ones who do not know their Imam عليه السلام.”
