A recent and very influential Shi‘ite interpretation of "Ismah" by Ruhollah Khomeini holds that truly faithful and pious Muslims—not just Prophets and Imams—could possess "Ismah", because it could be created by "nothing other than perfect faith." He preached that "infallibility is borne by faith. If one has faith in Allah, and if one sees Allah with the eyes of his heart, like the sun, it would be impossible for him to commit a sin. In front of an armed powerful , infallibility is attained."
