In the verse (19:50) God says: "And We made for them a highly exalted tongue of truth". That is to say, that We made them forever alive in the light of Intellect, so that, they may explain the sublime realities to their successors, as the Prophet, according to His command is witness (shahid or shahid) against the just ummah (i.e. the Imams, 2:143). To be witness is not possible for someone who is absent, it is valid only if someone is present. This shows that the Prophet witnesses the Imams and the Imams are witness against the people of their respective time and therefore, God on the Day of Resurrection, summons the people of the time, with their respective Imam. (17:71).
