What are the different types of Wilayah?

 

According to the use of Wilayah in the holy Qur'an, it can be said that the word Wilayah can be divided into Satanic Wilayah and Divine Wilayah:

" One who accepts Satan as his guardian, instead of Allah, has certainly incurred a great loss upon himself "[1]

"Allah is the Guardian of those who believe. He brings them out from darkness into the light"[2]

But in the words of the scholars, when describing the types of guardianship,They express the divine guardianship, which is a real and inherent guardianship and belongs to Allah in essence, and Allah has given this guardianship to His prophets and imams. Therefore, it is stated that there are two types of guardianship: Takwiniyyah (natural), and Tashri'iyyah (legal).

Wilayah at-takwiniyyah means that the Prophet and Imam have extraordinary power and can take over the world of creation, like giving life to a clay bird and making it come alive.[3]

Wilayah at-tashri’iyyah means that the Prophet and the Imam are recognized by Allah as the owner of the Sharia law and are allowed to legislate and express the rulings.

"It is not for any believer man or woman to have the choice in the affair when a matter is decreed by Allah and His Prophet...."[4]
