Sunnis believe the identity of the alleged 12th imam is a moot point, because there is no legitimate 12th imam. Mohammed was the seal of the prophets, and apart from the caliphs there is no legitimate imam, Shi’ite or otherwise, to succeed Mohammed.
Wasuni wanaamini kuwa utambuzi wa mtu anayedaiwa kuwa ni Imamu wa 12 ni jambo lisilokuwa na maana kwa sababu hakuna Imamu halali wa 12. Muhammad alikuwa ni hitimisho la manabii, na mbali ya makhalifa hakuna imamu halali, Mshia au mwingineyo yote wa kumrithi Muhammad.
