Alot of communities, countries place a lot of faith and trust in their leaders/imams/bosses.
But at the end of the day those people are still humans and face the same problems/temptations and issues. We forget that.
So sometimes for example they will see their imam played lottery, or their leader was seen in a adult club, or they found their boss doing some fraud.
IN most cases the people will them condemn and forskae those leaders.
But we should treat them like other people. A leader is the best of people and hence we expect them to set the best example to follow but does this mean they have to completely perfect?
On the other hand we also have people who arent leaders however they bring the truth and good knowledge but modern society or those in authority tend to persecute these people aswell as what they say usually contradicts and threatens the systems in place, for example Jesus, his views did not fit into the system of authority and he was persecuted. Same with Moses/Musa.
For what its worth,in this usury system where fiat money rules, scum normally floats to the top.
