Usool-a-Kafi mentions Imam Ja'far Sadiq initially chose Imam Ismail as his successor. However, the concept of infallibility means understanding whether this choice was final or subject to change is key. The discussion around Imam Musa Kazim's role reflects different interpretations within the Shia community.

It’s important to engage with historical and religious texts critically and contextually. The discussions around Imam Ismail and the interpretations of Usool-a-Kafi often reflect deep theological debates. The varied perspectives on Imamate and the criticisms of texts like Usool-a-Kafi are part of broader discussions within Shia scholarship. It’s beneficial to consider these issues in the context of both historical interpretations and modern scholarly reviews.
