Maktabah Al-Imām Al-Ghazālī

  A great Mujahid and a magnificent leader, Ismail Haniyeh rahimahullah was barbarically martyred in Iran in July 2024.  Iran outwardly makes a display of support for Hamas and the cause of Palestine. But is this really the case? From the outset, it must be clear that Iran, a majority Twelver Shia country, has nothing to do with Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa, nor do the Shia believe it to be of any significance.  Ismail Haniyeh was living in Doha, and he would travel to other countries too. He went to Turkiye, Russia, Egypt etc. But when he went to Iran, it was a totally different puzzle.   When a noted leader is martyred, then every minute detail is flashed all over the media. Where was the person located? Who was he with? What had happened? How did he lose his life?  The media went into a frenzy when other world leaders were killed, but here? It was said that Ismail Haniyeh rahimahullah was martyred by a guided missile. It stands to reason that if a missile hits a bu...

Shiasm is, in essence, built upon abuse and revilement; if cursing, condemnation, and vilification were removed from it, nothing substantial would remain. Under the name of tabarra (disavowal), this ill-fated sect engages in endless foul speech, and every major and minor Shi‘i book contains these things in great detail. Some people are acting shocked by the ranting of the Kuwaiti cleric Yasser al-Khabith, whereas in reality there is nothing surprising about it. The vulgarities he spews are not even a fraction of the disbelief and absurdities found in Shi‘i literature itself. The disagreement between people like Yasser al-Khabith and Hassan Allahyari and many within their own sect is precisely over this: how long should silence under the guise of taqiyyah (dissimulation) continue? If this is how we are described in the books, why hesitate to present it openly before people? And once they are free from the “expediency” of concealing their religion, you can clearly see how the true face o...

  The Shia are very quick to shout 'sectarian' when their reality is unveiled. However, if we think properly for a few moments, we understand that the Shia they are the real sectarians and the real people who create divisions and unnecessary strife. 1. If we look at the children of Sayyiduna Muhammad Rasulullah sallallahu 'alayhi wa sallam, then the Shia refuse to accept the sons and three daughters of Rasulullah sallallahu 'alayhi wa sallam. So, who is creating division and who is pulling people into their sect of Shia? 2. If we look at the wives of Sayyiduna Muhammad Rasulullah sallallahu 'alayhi wa sallam, then the Shia do not accept them as Ahl-ul-Bayt and falsely accuse Sayyidah 'A'isha radiyallahu 'anha? So, who is creating division and sectarianism in the Ummah? 3. If we look at the Sahabah radiyallahu 'anhum. The Shia utter profanities towards them, write filth about them, and spread lies about them. So, who is creating division and who is se...

  What will you say, O Muslims who promote unity and love for the Shia, O 'Ulama who chant unity slogans from the Mimbar,  1. To Allah Ta'ala, when he asks you why you united with, loved, and chanted support for those who bombed and destroyed Masajid in Syria? 2. To Rasulullah sallallahu 'alayhi wa sallam, when he asks you why you united with and loved those who swore at and accused his most beloved wife, Umm-ul-Mu'mineen Sayyidah A'isha radiyallahu 'anha? 3. To Sayyiduna Abu Bakr radiyallahu 'anhu, when he asks you why you united with and supported those who reviled him day and night? 4. To Sayyiduna 'Umar radiyallahu 'anhu, when he asks you the reason for you uniting with, loving, and supporting those who celebrate his demise in Iran? (The Shia celebrate the demise of Sayyiduna 'Umar radiyallahu 'anhu annually in Iran) 5. To Sayyiduna 'Uthman radiyallahu 'anhu, when he asks you to give evidence for uniting with and supporting those ...

  One of the worst rotten stinking lies being peddled all around us today is that Iran is the "only" one doing something.  Iranian rhetoric is filled with political and religious references to Palestine, Al-Quds day, and the march to Jerusalem. The minds of the masses have been geared into thinking that there there is no country more dedicated to the liberation of Palestine than Iran.  Does this match the on-the-ground reality? Is it factual?  Despite all the Iranian rhetoric and theatrics, Iran and its militant proxies across the Arab world and beyond are responsible for countless horrendous atrocities against PALESTINIAN REFUGEES, and Palestinians that they deem to be the wrong type of Palestinians. This was clear as daylight following the US led invasion and occupation of Iraq in 2003. The US led invasion of Iraq was actively supported by Iran.  In 2006, Human Rights Watch released a series of reports. One of these reports is called 'Nowhere to Flee: The Peri...

  The Shia are Persian Iranian Zoroastrians who sought to destroy Islam from within. They outwardly embraced it, transforming their rituals into Zoroastrian traditions in the name of Islam, thus tarnishing Islam with this disgrace and stabbing it in the back. The Shia praise and venerate only Sayyiduna Husayn [radiyallahu anhu], excluding the other sons of Sayyiduna Ali ibn Abi Talib [radiyallahu anhu]. Why? Have you ever asked yourself this question? Have you ever wondered about this? The answer is a fact that may shock you, many Muslims worldwide, and especially Arab Shia. Before answering this question, consider this information about the sons of Sayyiduna Ali ibn Abi Talib [radiyallahu anhu]: 1- Al-Hasan ibn Ali ibn Abi Talib 2- Al-Husayn ibn Ali ibn Abi Talib 3- Al-Muhsin ibn Ali ibn Abi Talib 4- Al-Abbas ibn Ali ibn Abi Talib 5- Hilal ibn Ali ibn Abi Talib 6- Abdullah ibn Ali ibn Abi Talib 7- Ja'far ibn Ali ibn Abi Talib 8- Uthman ibn Ali ibn Abi Talib 9- Ubaydullah ibn Ali i...

Over the last few days, there has been a clamour about Shia Sunni unity. This hullaballoo, to our great dismay, was also spread from the Masjid Mimbar in South Africa. To Allah alone is our complaint.  Nevertheless, have the Muslim public of South Africa and around thought for a few moments over what the Shia actually believe and say about the Muslims, i.e., the Ahl-us-Sunnah wal Jama'ah.  If you are not aware, or have not been made aware, then please do take some time out to read, reflect, and understand the matter at hand. Study the following references from the Shia sources, and decide for yourself if you are being duped or not. Are the Shia and their fanboys really interested in unity, or, is the unity call itself a misnomer and a lie? 1. What do the Shia believe about the Muslims? The Twelver Shia believe that Sunnis are infidels, including Hanafis, Malikis, Shafi'is, Hanbalis. Their most dangerous enemy is the one who is knowledgeable about their doctrine and their pract...

Recently, many have cited the incident from Surah Ar-Rum—where the Sahaba rejoiced at the Roman victory over the Persians—to justify supporting Iran in its current conflict with Israel. The argument suggests that because Iran is allegedly "closer" to Muslims in belief than the U.S. or Israel, they deserve our support. While the validity of that theological proximity is a separate debate, it raises a critical question: even if we assume they are closer in belief, is religious affinity the sole criterion for deciding whom to support in a geopolitical conflict? If Israel were to attack Japan or India tomorrow, would we side with Israel simply because they are Ahl al-Kitab (People of the Book) and theoretically closer to us in faith than the "Mushrikeen" (polytheists)?  Or, conversely, if Japan or India attacked Israel, would we support Israel for the same reason? Absolutely not. When deciding whom to support in a conflict, there are far more critical factors to conside...
