Al Imran verse 103 : And hold fast all together by the rope which Allah (stretches out for you) and be not divided among yourselves; and remember with gratitude Allah's favor on you; for ye were enemies and He joined your hearts in love so that by His grace ye became brethren; and ye were on the brink of the pit of fire and He saved you from it. Thus doth Allah make his signs clear to you: that ye may be guided.
well another religious person throwing their own Bible out the window and doing whatever they want ... go get in line its over there -------->
Why don't you read the whole Surah to understand what it means to hold on to the rope of God and not be divided. For example, if you lived during Yahya, would you stick to the majority of people who don't follow him or would you stick to the community that follows him as he is part of the path of submission to God?
It's the same with divinely appointed leaders after, sticking to them is holding on to the rope of God (the book and divine guides). The Quran emphasizes majority of the people of book were disgraced except through the a rope from God and rope from humans.
The Quran emphasizes in context of emphasizing of the family of Ibrahim, their divine authority, and the eternal consequences of turning away from it, to obey God and to obey the Messenger and those who possess the authority from us.
It's clear enough for sincere people wanting to know the truth. People wanting to stick to their religion they are born with, that's a whole different story.
did Prophet Muhammad himself select this " divinely appointed leader " ? if not how can you say that he is divinely appointed unless Muhammad chose him ? it is the choice and interpretation of humans who are not Prophets right just some religious person so how should they know what God wants ?
did Prophet Muhammad himself say that this is an issue - that if not agreed upon - should be fought over? or did you Muslims decide that on your own ?
