Can there be a Greater Lie in the Universe? Mudassir Faruqi

Image
Some of our people live with the illusion that perhaps there are some Shias who respect the Ṣaḥābah raḍiyallāhu ‘anhum and consider tabarra bad. Some of them are very clever and talk about the unity of the Ummah day and night.   Look, the Unity of the Ummah Conference is being held. Shia and Sunni scholars are hugging each other, praying behind each other, going to each other's madrasas and making statements of unity!   I am addressing all such people (simpleton Sunni brothers) today.   Let us proceed with knowing the following fact: According to the Rawāfiḍ, until a person does not accept the "Imamat" as prescribed by Allāh (obligatory by Allāh) and places the first crown of this Imāmat on the head of Sayyidunā ‘Alī raḍiyallāhu ‘anhu and declares "absolution and disavowal" (tabarra) from the khilāfat of Sayyidunā Abū Bakr Siddīq raḍiyallāhu ‘anhu, then his faith cannot be complete.   Yes, what you have read above is certainly correct.   What...

Khamenei’s Fatwa: A Political Tool

Image
  1          Introduction Shias and Shia apologists are hasty to quote a verdict issued by Khamenei, ostensibly denouncing cursing of the revered figures of Sunnī Islām when questioned about this controversial issue. Does this verdict stand the test of reality? Is this verdict implemented as is, or are there nuances that the Muslims are kept in the dark about? Does the verdict of Khamenei undo all the harm caused by the fundamental Shia teaching of tabarra, i.e., disassociation? Does the fatwa of Khamenei override the verdicts issued by the Shia clergy? Does the fatwa of Khamenei contain political twists? Does the fatwa of Khamenei remove all the grievances that the Shia world have against the blessed and noble companions of Rasūlullāh sallallahu 'alayhi wa sallam  and his blessed family? 2          Muslim Position The Muslim Ummah holds all the Ṣaḥābah radiyallahu 'anhum  and th...

How was Sunni Muslim Iran converted to Shiasm?

Image
    From the Islamic conquest to the rise of the Safavid dynasty Before the Safavid dynasty, from 21 AH to 907 AH (642 CE to 1501 CE), Islam entered Persia during the reign of Caliph Umar ibn al-Khattab raḍiyallāhu ‘anhu, and Iran became part of the Islamic state.     For the next nine centuries, most of Iran's population adhered to Sunni Islam, and Shafi'i and Hanafi schools of thought were widespread in most cities, while limited Shi'a communities existed in certain areas.      The most prominent Shi'a centres before the Safavids were Qom, Kashan, Rayy (at certain times), Tabaristan (parts of it), and parts of Khorasan.      Despite the existence of these centres, most of Iran's major cities, such as Isfahan, Shiraz, Tabriz, Hamadan, Qazvin, Nishapur, Yazd, and Kerman, remained predominantly Sunni until the beginning of the 16th century. Shia States Preceding the Safavids ·        The Buyid State (334...

NAMING THOSE WHO SLAYED SAYYIDUNĀ ḤUSAYN RAḌIYALLĀHU ‘ANHU

Image
1.       Shamr bin Dhil Jaushan     2.       Sinan bin Anas an-Nakha’ī These are the 2 people directly involved in the killing of the blessed and beloved grandson of Sayyidunā Muḥammad Rasūlullāh ṣallallāhu ‘alayhi wa sallam. The people who invited Sayyidunā Ḥusayn raḍiyallāhu ‘anhu over to Kufa, the Shia, were the ones who abandoned him and deceived him. Many of the people who wrote letters to Sayyidunā Ḥusayn raḍiyallāhu ‘anhu were involved in the killing. Muḥsin al-Amīn, a Shia scholar, states that 20 000 people had pledged allegiance to Sayyidunā Ḥusayn raḍiyallāhu ‘anhu, and when he arrived, they deceived him, abandoned him, and fought him! Study the following references, in which the Shia admit to slaying Sayyidunā Ḥusayn raḍiyallāhu ‘anhu: مرتضى المطهري في كتابه (الملحمة الحسينية): يقول والعجب أن الحسين قتل على يد المسلمين، بل على يد الشيعة Murtaḍā al-Muṭahhirī says in al-Malḥamah al-Ḥusayniyyah, ‘and, astonishin...
