Who Are the Spiritual Fathers?
Silet ar-Rahm is Wajib and Qat’a ar-Rahm is HarÄm towards our spiritual relatives also. Our Holy Prophet (S) and our Imams (a.s.) are our spiritual fathers. So, the descendants of our Holy Prophet (S) and the Imams (a.s.), that is the SadÄt, are our spiritual relatives. Also, since the Holy Prophet (S) and the Imams (a.s.) are the spiritual fathers of all believers and Shias, we all are related to each other, and are like brothers of each other.
“Certainly the Believers Are Brothers of Each Other.”
(Surah al-HujurÄt 49:10)
The verse clearly indicates that everyone is somehow related to a common spiritual father.
