Shaykh Abu Ja’far said that our belief about the purity of the essence and physicality was that they were all infallible and free of any kind of sin and errors. They neither committed minor nor a major sin nor disobeyed God. On the other hand, they acted as they were advised. Anyone who declined their stature in any way was ignorant of their standing. Anyone who was unaware and impolite about their status was a kafir.

We also believed that these people were free of sins from the beginning of their creation. They were gifted with all decorum of knowledge and piety, and they were never associated with ignorance and sin at any stage of their life.
