The Twelve Imams

Al- Kulaini recorded in his book AL-KAAFI attributes and descriptions of the twelve Imams such as would imply their elevation from the human level to that of the gods of ancient Greek pagans. To quote all such fables from AL-KAAFI and other books would require a large volume book. By way of illustration, it will suffice to list some of the quotes from AL-KAAFI:

" The Imams posses all the knowledge granted to angels, prophets and messengers." (Al- Kulaini. AL- KAAFI, p.255)
" The Imams know when they will die, and they do not die except by their choice. " (Al- Kulaini. AL- KAAFI, p.258)
" The Imaams have knowledge of whatever occurred in the past and whatever will happen in the future, and nothing is concealed from them." (Al- Kulaini. AL- KAAFI, p.260)
" The Imams have knowledge of all the revealed books, regardless of the languages in which they were revealed. " (Al- Kulaini. AL- KAAFI, p.260)
" No one complied the Qur'ân completely except the Imams, and they encompass all of its knowledge. " (Al- Kulaini. AL- KAAFI, p.227)
" Signs of the prophets are possessed by the Imams. " (Al- Kulaini. AL- KAAFI, p.231)
" When the Imams' time comes, they will rule in accordance with the ruling of the Prophet David and his dynasty. These Imams will not need to ask for presentation of evidence before passing their judgements. " (Al- Kulaini. AL- KAAFI, p.397)
" There is not a single truth possessed by a people saved that which originated with the Imams, and everything which did not proceed from them is false. " (Al- Kulaini. AL- KAAFI, p.399)
" All of the earth belongs to the Imams. " (Al- Kulaini. AL- KAAFI, p.407)
