Q&A⚖️ Fiqh & Law

I would like to ask about the meaning of (heresy) in our Shiite doctrine? One of the scholars used to say that Allah commanded the Messenger (PBUH&HF) to announce the Imamate of the Commander of the Faithful (PBUH), and then he changed His command. For this reason, Imam Ali (PBUH) was not the first caliph?

Answer

In the name of Allah, heresy is incorporating things in religion which are not part of that religion. The Messenger (PBUH&HF) announced the Caliphate of Ali (PBUH) on Al-Ghadeer Day and other days and he did not retreat on that. How would you say this? Allah is the Guide.
