Enlightened rants...

[Mystic]

Doing away with hadiths does away with the whole talk of Aaron in Quran as if not important and doing away with succession does away with too many verses in Quran as if not important, and doing away with the family of Mohammad does away with all talk about divinely chosen families in the past.

Divinely chosen families... come on, man. Use your brain!

Divinely chosen families?!?!
Let me guess - those families came out claiming they had been divinely chosen, right? RIGHT?!
A bit self-serving, wouldn't you say?

What could go wrong with such a claim?
It's not like god will punish them, huh?

There is a whole wisdom to this in Quran.

It's a tautology, that chosen ones that succeed each other in the divine mission of teaching a people after the founder, are closest to their founder and each other regardless of blood ties. But God due to them being spiritual closest, also in his wisdom, makes them biologically somehow related to each other.

And one reason is that if a follower of Mohammad or Abraham is more pious than a blood relative of theirs, the pious one due to their station with God and humanity, would be closer to them.

This is not true of normal humans. I would consider my parents closer to me, than more pious adults. Or my brothers closer to me, then more pious friends.

Family relationship, in God's book, some are closer to each other. And the closest to each other are the chosen ones who are partners in each others affair of guiding and leading and navigating humanity and manifesting God's Glory and Beauty.

It's a tautology, and if they weren't relatives in physical sense as well, people will ask, why not? So your damned if you do and damned if you don't, but there is more wisdom in making them blood relatives to limit the amount of people who can fabricate leadership (see Zakariyas prayer in Suratal Mariam).
