In this episode of the BeQuran Podcast, Ali and Fatima explore one of the most defining beliefs of the Imamiya Twelver Shia school the concept of divinely appointed succession through the Twelve Imams. Drawing from a lecture Naming the Twelve Imams by Name by Sayyid Moustafa Al-Qazwini, he breaks down the three foundational pillars of this belief: explicit prophetic naming, divine infallibility (ʿIsmah), and unparalleled superiority of the Imams in knowledge and piety.

The episode also investigates two widely accepted hadith Hadith al-Thaqalayn (The Two Weighty Things) and Hadith al-Safina (The Ark) and discusses Sunni scholarly struggles with the hadith of “twelve successors.” Ultimately, this conversation leads to a powerful reflection on imtihan divine testing and the personal responsibility each seeker bears in pursuing truth, even when it challenges the majority view.
