ምእመናን ማለት እነዚያ በአላህና በመልክተኛው ያመኑት ፤ ከእርሱ ጋር በሚሰበሰብ ጉዳይ ላይ በኾኑ ጊዜ እስከሚያስፈቅዱ ድረስ የማይኼዱት ብቻ ናቸው ፡ ፡ እነዚያ የሚያስፈቅዱህ እነርሱ እነዚያ በአላህና በመልክተኛው የሚያምኑት ናቸው ፡ ፡ ለግል ጉዳያቸውም ፈቃድ በጠየቁህ ጊዜ ከእነሱ ለሻኸው ሰው ፍቀድለት ፡ ፡ ለእነሱም አላህን ምሕረትን ለምንላቸው አላህ መሓሪ አዛኝ ነውና ፡ ፡
Only those are believers , who believe in Allah and His Messenger : when they are with him on a matter requiring collective action , they do not depart until they have asked for his leave ; those who ask for thy leave are those who believe in Allah and His Messenger ; so when they ask for thy leave , for some business of theirs , give leave to those of them whom thou wilt , and ask Allah for their forgiveness : for Allah is Oft-Forgiving , Most Merciful .
