The book features nearly two-hundred scholarly statements supporting this notion and illustrates the perishing of many past nations, such as the People of Jāhiliyyah, because they relied on large numbers to infer the truth. In fact, it explains that although Muslim minorities are frequently ostracised, oppressed, and deemed peculiar, they are often correct, rightfully earning them the title: The Strangers. It concludes that only textual evidence unveils the truth; therefore, Muslims must only rely on textual evidence to ascertain the truth. Hence, relying on popularity, for example, which many Muslims use as a gauge to determine the truth, is wrong since popularity entails following the masses, yet the people of the truth in most generations are scarce.
