Imamate: Difference between revisions

Infallible imams (s) had some other knowledge beside those they had heard directly or indirectly from the Prophet (s). That knowledge is among extraordinary knowledge which they have been given through inspiration and intuition such as those given to [[Khidr]], [[Dhu l-Qarnayn]], ]]Virgin Mary (a)]] and mother of [[Moses (a)]]. It was having such a knowledge that made some Imams (a) reach imamate in young ages. Thanks to this knowledge, they were aware about anything they needed for the guidance of people and carrying out their duties and did not need to learn them from others.<ref>Misbah Yazdi, ''Amuzish-i 'aqa'id'', p.321-322</ref>
