Sayings of Imam Ahmed Al-Hassan, p. 1 Also displayed at "How to Join the Ahmadi Religion of Peace and Light: A Step-by-Step Guide" I do not accept at all that any child under the age of 14 holds or uses a mobile phone for any reason whatsoever. It is haram (forbidden) for them to do so. I do not accept it at all, ever, ever. Whoever wants to destroy his or her child give them a cell phone. This is such a bad thing that absolutely destroys a child's behaviour because the child by mistake can come across very bad clips on the phone which can shock the child and ruin his or her behaviour, and it is difficult to fix the matter in this age. These scenes will be engraved in their memories forever.

Abdullah Hashem Aba Al-Sadiq, The Goal of the Wise, Door 40, page 572 He labeled the corrupt clerics from Hawza the Hawza as "non-working scholars," describing them as “treacherous,” “silent idols”, and that they do not want the appearance and rise of the Mahdi, as that would mean the end of their status as Marjas.He warned the people that the religious establishment would be the primary enemy of the Mahdi upon his rise, referring to narrations from Mohammed and the Family of Mohammed stating that the scholars of the End Times are the "most evil religious scholars under the shadow of the sky."In addition to this, he criticized Wilayat Al-Faqih (Rule of the Jurisprudent), which gives scholars religious and political leadership in the absence of Imam Mahdi, arguing that scholars had falsely claimed the same authority as Prophets and Messengers in order to centralize power and money. He also declared that the system of Taqleed, which requires laypeople to blindly follow a scholar, is a false innovation used to strip away the authority of the Imam and make the scholars themselves into "idols" or "gods."
