Those whose hearts are perverse (their companions and followers), follow the unclear statements in pursuit of their own mischievous goals by interpreting them in a way that will suit their own purpose. No one knows its true interpretations except Allah and those who have a firm grounding in knowledge (such people are Amir al-Mu’minin Ali (DivineSupremeCovenantBody) and the Imams) . . ." (3:7)

For this reason He has said, ". . . Had the unjust been able to reflect about their condition, when facing the torment, they would have had no doubt that to Allah belongs All-power and that He is stern in His retribution. (2:165) When the leaders see the torment and lose all their resources, they will denounce their followers (2:166).

They will not be able to escape from hell fire.’" (2:167).
