Concept of Wilayat - e - Faqih
 Islam is a comprehensive religion, providing laws on politics, society, economy, etc. It is admitted that the Divine commandments are applicable to all societies in all eras.

- Religious commandments are not useful unless they are applied to form a state on the basis of 
Divine guardianship.

- Moreover, in order to protect the Islamic system, control the borders of Muslims from any encroachment by the enemy, and prevent chaos in Islamic society, it is necessary to form an Islamic government. Therefore, the reasons underlining the role of an Imam in the society stand for the formation of a government in the absence of infallible Imams (a).

- The leadership of an Islamic government has been specifically entrusted on a particular person in the absence of Imam Mahdi (ATF). But since the government is an Islamic in nature, its ruler should possess at least the following two qualifications: command over religious laws (fiqh); and he should be a just person.

- The scholar must be a just individual, and must be also pure and pious. The Guardian has to be an outstanding candidate, and as a result the most learned of all other candidates in order to be elected to this post. This position makes Him the leader of all the Ummah, not only the Shia, and he has to make decisions and lead on behalf of the Ummah. Of course not all of the Ummah follow the Guardian, however that is what is intended to happen.

This position was intended by Imam Khomeini (RA) to be one that can unite and lead the Ummah to glory, until the return of Imam Mahdi (ATF). In no way is this position more powerful than the leadership of Imam Mahdi (ATF), and is not intended to be so. it is simply a temporary position until His return, so that in the 
time of His occultation the Ummah is not divided and doesn't go astray, because the Muslims of the world always need strong leadership.
