14:56
Q. It is obvious that the above verse refers specifically to the family of Hazrat Ibrahim, in which nobody else can participate either actually or potentially, so what is the means of salvation for other people?
A. Those who follow the Prophets and the Imams become their spiritual children, and as Hazrat Ibrahim says: "So, whoever follows me, he is surely of me." (14:36). Just as we see that Hazrat Nuh’s son was not considered to be his child because of his disobedience, we also see that Salman-i Farsi was considered to be part of the ahl-i bayt because of his obedience. From these examples it is clear that according to the principles of religion it is possible to be expelled from the family of the Prophets and Imams by disobedience and to be included as spiritual children by obedience to them.
