. This sect in opposition to other sects of Zaydiyyah but in accordance with shia, affirms the right of succession after the prophet as the exclusive right of
Ali. Therefore, they do not believe in the succession of Abu Bakr, Umar ibn al-Khattab and Uthman ibn Affan. They believe that there is a hidden text (''nass khafi'') approving of Ali as the right successor to the Prophet. According to Jarudiyah, some traditions evidently designate the succession of
Ali.
Al-Shaykh Al-Mufid believed that only Imamiah and Jarudiyah deserve to be called
Shia. They have two beliefs on the determination of successor by the Prophet:
* One group said that the Prophet had determined Ali as successor by revealed text or ''nass''.
Ali, in turn, designated Hasan as successor and
Hasan ibn Ali orderly determined Hosein as successor.
* Another group said that the Prophet Muhammad treated a revealed text for Ali however the Prophet determined another revealed text for Hasan and Hosein ibn Ali. They believe that there is no other revealed text for other Imams who were not present during the Prophet's era.
As for the knowledge of Imams, Jaroudyyah believes that the Imam has innate knowledge regardless of acquiring knowledge by education. In other words, Imams have inborn knowledge from the very beginning. These beliefs are found among Yemeni Zaydis today.
