(Explanation of the Imam of the Strangers) Blessed are they, and their Imam is above all others *** He who came with faith and the Criterion, and by Allah, they did not follow anyone other than him *** except when he guided them with clear explanation

The Shaykh :"Blessed are they, and their Imam is above all others *** He who came with faith and the Criterion
and by Allah, they did not follow anyone other than him *** except when he guided them with clear explanation"
This means: that these people who hold fast to the Hadith and the clear verses of the Qur'an, their Imam above all people is Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), and they did not follow anyone other than him. Rather, he was the Imam to be followed in matters of creed, character, and actions, both in what is done and what is left.
