I am Sunni and I love and respect my Shia brothers and sisters, May Allah continue to bless all of the Muslims both Shia and Sunni and unite us all as one ummah. . I have prayed in congregation behind Shia imams as well and respect the love they have for prophet Muhammad saw and the ahlul baiyt .

No need for taqiyyah because some of us who are Sunni pray with our hands down. I'm Sunni and Maliki in fiqh, we pray with our hands downs here in Africa

[@ahmedharajli189]

Hey brother would it be okay if I speak with you? I’ve been trying to find malikis who still pray in sadl and it’s been difficult, most malikis I know there days fold their hands in prayer

[@faizashahrukh2634]

Same I think every sunni prays with thier hands down

[@Oudda_shape]

@@faizashahrukh2634 people who are Hanafi, Shafi and Hanbali in fiqh fold their hands. Praying with your hands down (sadl) is the dominant opinion in the madhab of imam Malik. Folding and letting your hands down are both the sunnah, doing any one of them when you pray won't create a problem with your salah being accepted

[@iciici2859]

​@@ahmedharajli189They have adopted the Salafi school of thought. I have seen many of those people. But people who are truly Malikis pray with their hands along their body

[@sahmedmh]

​@@Oudda_shape'no need for taqiyyah' You won't tell us if it is required, my brother. We will decide that ourselves being Shi'i. Even today people in the Indo-Pak subcontinent, Najd, and many other Sunni lands people ostracise or attack who they find out are Shia. First fix your blood thirsty madhhab which declares us as halaal al dam and then tell us there is no need for taqiyyah.

[@person_onyt]

Maa shaa Allah.

[@AshrafAnam]

*Only we Hanaafis don't recite behind the Imaam. Other madhaahib of Sunnis - the Shaafis, Maalikis and Hanbalis do recite. Also the Maalikis don't do **_qabd_** and leave their hands by their sides.*

Are you not interested in learning history? How would you know Islam correctly if you didn't learn its history? How does Allah actually preserve this religion, does Allah magically make it happen, did Allah not create causes and effects? Does Allah like to leave us hanging without a definite answer? Does Allah instruct us to blindly guess? I am a Muslim and I think we should learn history.

Total misguidance. How can you pray behind someone who doesn't have the same aqeedah as the Prophet ﷺ and the sahaba?

[@sullyqureshi676]

How can i do qunoot and how can i do the raising of the hands for takbeer when concluding the salah when they Sunnis do not do any of these acts?

I also dont understand when or how I should perform qunoot when the sunnis skip this part

[@sullyqureshi676]

@@gr3en_jamfatima295 This Ustadh never spoke clearly about this issue

[@sahmedmh]

You can finish the second surah in the second rak'ah and say the qunoot with your hands to your side. Or you can raise up from the rukoo' and then raise your hands briefly and recite the qunoot. But to be honest this joining of congregation stuff is ceremonial and to promote unity and erase misconceptions, it's not something that is practically possible on a regular basis. So you shouldn't have the qunoot issue quite often.

Should Shia move head right and left at end of prayer like Sunni do and should Shia place forehead on clay tablet or the carpet?

[@faizashahrukh2634]

Hmmm are you a shia or sunni because we as sunni place are foreheads on the prayer mats and we move our heads right and left

[@sahmedmh]

Placing the clay or any other earthly product like wood, sand, stones, etc is compulsory. About saying tasleem at the end, you should do your tasleem like the Shia do and the better thing to do is to do salaam and handshake with the persons next to you once they are done.

[@sullyqureshi676]

@@TheJayair what about qunoot and the conclusion of salah?

[@TheJayair]

@@sullyqureshi676 According to what I have learnt and this is under the Marajah of Sayyid Sistani. Is that when you are praying behind a sunni Imam, if you are praying as a shia. You are not supposed to State your Intentions that you are following the Imam, your Intention is supposed to be that of wanting the union and seeking the rewards of being in a jamaat prayers but you are not supposed to follow the Imam. When It comes the point of performing qunoot. Perform the qunoot and continue with your prayers. Because the idea is that if you place your intention that you are following the sunni Imam, take for instance he starts reciting one of the 4 surahs that you are obligated to go for sajdah. The moment the you are going for sajdah your prayer becomes Batil. So place your intention that you are seeking the rewards of being in a jamaat prayer but you are not following the Imam. Your Intention should be you are performing a Furada Prayer in a jamaat prayer. This is based on my Knowledge, I might be wrong. Consult with your Marajah.

This is assuming the Sunni imam isn't bashing Imam Ali (ع) and the Ahlulbayt (ع)?

[@Al-Madhloom]

@@maxkyrus I grew up Sunni, after hearing a Sunni sheikh bashing the Shia of Imam Ali ع and lying about Imam Ali ع, I researched and discovered the missing piece in Islam. The Ahlulbayt ع.

[@haruna5941]

Have some honor, do not lie. Never in my life have I EVER heard a Sunni Imam bash Hazreti Ali and the Ahlul Bayt. It is FARDH to love Ahlul Bayt in the Qur'an and the Saheeh hadith that Hazreti Ali is the gate of knowledge is more the enough reason for us to love and respect the Ahlul Bayt. May Allah SWT shower his peace and blessings upon them.

[@Al-Madhloom]

@@haruna5941 why would I lie? It is well known that many Sunni sheikhs lie about Imam Ali ع and the Shia...why do you feel the need to falsely claim otherwise? Be a man. Man up and own it. If you have never experienced this yourself, then alhumdulillah. But I remember a packed juma khutba in a Sunni mosque, close to UT campus where many youth and adults would attend, they had a guest sheikh screaming and shouting at the top of his lungs and how he would shout that Ali burned the Shia alive...which sets a very dangerous precedent...I don't lie. I don't even need you to believe it, you can go online and find similar khutbas.

[@yourfitdesiuncle]

What should we do if the imam is reciting a sura that we don't know or they are only reciting part of a large sura?

[@faizashahrukh2634]

Look he said that if imam recites a long surah so we should wait until he says subana rabilal azeem so we will go down to touch our thighs

[@sahmedmh]

First thing is okay, you can just recite a different surah that you know. Second thing is okay too since their madhhab allows this and he is doing this knowing it to be accepted.
