Wrong! We do have a choice not to blindly follow, something the Quran explicitly forbids us from doing so.
This probably the most damming verse and biggest warning to blind followers
Quran 8:22
"Indeed, the vilest of living animals, in God's sight, are the deaf, the dumb and those that do not use their intellect"
And Quran also gives the result of blind following
Quran 6:116
"And if you obey most of those in the earth, they will mislead you from the way of God. They follow but assumption / conjecture and they only guess / lie"
Quran 25.044
"Or do you think that most of them listen or use their intellect? They are only like cattle, nay, they are more astray from the way"
Quran 36:062
"And indeed, he did lead astray a great multitude of you. Did you not, then use your intellect / reason"
And then the blind followers will blame their Mullahs, Moulvis and Aalims but it will be too late by then.
Quran 36:062
"And indeed, he did lead astray a great multitude of you. Did you not, then use your intellect / reason
Quran 33:067
“And they will say: O our Sustainer! Behold, we paid heed to our leaders and our great men, and it is they who have led us astray from the right path”
