Re: Imam
I know where you are taking this conversation. But let me answer your regardless, first let me put the verse in again so you have no trouble scrolling up
002.124 *
**YUSUFALI:* And remember that Abraham was tried by his Lord with certain commands, which he fulfilled: He said: "I will make thee an Imam to the Nations." He pleaded: "And also (Imams) from my offspring!" He answered: "But My Promise is not within the reach of evil-doers."
Not everybody becomes an Imam from those who are not Zalim. Even Abraham had to go through a "trial" to qualify as an Imam, even though he was already a Prophet.
Re-read the verse and tell me.
