Useful timestamps: 36:28 Is it permissable to curse the Sahaba? 40:38 Do Shias think that Sunnis are proper Muslims? 42:31 Message to Sunni Muslims 48:01 Shia books to read for more information 51:00 Khomeini and Taqiiyya 1:01:33 Shia scholar on Abu Bakr and Umar 1:02:53 Are Shias a homogenous group? 1:03:56 Umayyid's cursing Ali 1:07:00 Shias have the same Quran 1:07:46 Similarities and Differences It was a nice conversation overall though a bit dry. I have known Shias all my life so many things were not new to me. Thank you Brother Paul for building bridges and having the courage to post this video. Some Muslims have a conversation with a non-Muslim but not a Shia astaghfirullah. I was about surprised that the issue of Aisha r.a. was not mentioned but then again maybe that was for the best.

@@zainiabdullah621 No, they have the same kaaba as us. The main difference is that annualy they visit Imam Hussein's Tomb in Karbala in a pilgrimage called Ziyara. I went to Ziyara it was nice. Food was served for free and to those who walked the whole distance, Homes were opened and tents were sat up for those who wanted to rest. In fact here in Iraq people race to host those who go to commemorate the tragedy of Imam Hussein's death with his family and relatives.

"Some Muslims have a conversation with a non-Muslim but not a Shia" - Non-Muslims are mostly ignorant of Islam and need dawa to be educated, but the Shi'a rafidhi scholars (not the laymen) are educated; yet they curse the sahaba and the wife of the Prophet (saw). They believe that Omar (r) killed Fatima (ra) and humiliated Ali (r), among other blasphemies, astaghfirullah. What this guy did is Taqiya, they (rafidhi) believe that they can hide their beliefs. What do you have to discuss with someone who believes that he can lie to you without consequences ?

@@human0_0skullby Logica we are no different because you don't accept that a person has a right to choose the successor(shura) , for you it's doctrine. That's why you can't accept someone who challenges they don't believe Abu Bakr is a successor, if you really believe he was chosen by vote (shura) then you will automatically understand others will differ who they believe is suitable to be the next caliph and accept it. Yet you accuse Shia as rafidhi and you are no different. You think Shia not Muslims because not accepting abu Bakr. Yet you claim he was appointed to be 1st caliph by vote . If it was shura then you accept there are other will who chose someone else as a successor... Like any elections. But both Shia and Sunnah have the same fundamentalism but don't realise it.

I grew up in a Shia family and later became Sunni during personal study. Whenever I hear Sunnis say Shias aren’t muslim, that they’re liars, that they’re evil etc I think back to how loving my own family is. The truth is everyone is trying to please Allah ‏ﷻ, and He will adjudicate between us and whoever is sincere. It’s not just having correct theology but also proper character and mercy and gentleness. Advise and communicate and then leave one another to good works, and let Allah ‏ﷻ deal with whoever however He wants to. And also remember I suppose Allah ‏ﷻ accepts the sincere - not those who theologically debated and humiliated everyone else.

Many Jews and Christians are also loving towards their family and practice worship of God. What takes them away from true belief is their decision to follow rabbis and imams over divine scripture. This is especially obvious when you see Shias curse important companions and family of Muhammad (saw) who gave their lives for spreading Islam.

It's true that Shias are not the same just like all Sunnis are not the same. Each has sub-sects or subdivisions. In regards to Shi'ism, there is difference between their learned Imams/leaders who wrote their books and instituted their beliefs and average shia persons who has no knowledge of Quran and Sunnah. The fundamental principle is that the ignorant is excused until the truth is made clear to him. When we say Shias are like this or like that, we are talking about their beliefs or theology and not each and every Shia individual. Everybody deserves kindness and good advise regardless of his or her beliefs. And as in regards to most Shias being good normal people; we say all humanbeings are capable of being kind and good, but that does not make their beliefs valid. There are good Christians and Jews also. Not all Jews hate Muslims. There are Jews who protect Palestinians. This is a fact.

I'm a Sunni Muslim, but I have to state that the massacre at Karbala was an absolutely disgraceful episode in Muslim history. Frankly I'm shocked that all Muslims at that time did not reject and bring to justice the perpetrators. That the Muslims allowed these despotic aggressors to continue being in power is totally shameful.

@@timothyroy6234 Well the Shia understanding is in the Quran. There are so many instances of Allah appointed people in positions of leadership, such as King Saul, Prophet Harun, Prophet Adam, etc. Nowhere in the Quran does it say to elect a leader from yourselves. Prophet Musa (as) left for what he thought was 30 days, but he still went ahead and placed Prophet Harun as the final authourity. And still somehow those Bani Israil who were saved from slavery and experienced so many miracles still managed to apostate. So why would the Last Prophet (saww) of Allah (swt) leave his ummah with no leadership after he died? He wouldn't come back right, and there was no other Prophet to come after him. This creates the need for appointment. If you read the sermon of Ghadeer, no matter the narrator, there is this one line that reads Man Kuntu Mawla fa hadha Aliyun Mawla. Now Sunnis like to say Mawla means friend, but based off of the context and the word used in the Quran, that makes no sense at all. First of all this was during his farewell sermon. They stopped int he middle of the burning desert, called all who were ahead to come back and all those behind to catch up. Then they built a pulpit for the Prophet to stand up on and give an hour long speech known as the Farewell Sermon. He had known he would die soon, so he made it clear who would succeed him. He raised Imam Ali's arm up and said that line. If you read the text of the whole sermon, it is very evident. Also Sayyidah Fatimah (sa)'s sermon of Fadak in the court of Abu Bakr also reflects this position giving to Imam Ali (as) by the Holy Prophet (saww). Now the Quran also uses a similar word to Mawla, Wali. it shares the same root word. In the Quran, Allah says إِنَّمَا وَلِيُّكُمُ اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا الَّذِينَ يُقِيمُونَ الصَّلَاةَ وَيُؤْتُونَ الزَّكَاةَ وَهُمْ رَاكِعُونَ ‎﴿٥٥﴾‏ Only your Wali is Allah, His messenger, and those who believed, establish the prayer and give the zakaah while in ruku' 5:55. This last criteria only applies to Ali ibn Abi Talib (as). There is no other evidence pointing to anyone else at the time. Allah also says ۞ وَإِذِ ابْتَلَىٰ إِبْرَاهِيمَ رَبُّهُ بِكَلِمَاتٍ فَأَتَمَّهُنَّ ۖ قَالَ إِنِّي جَاعِلُكَ لِلنَّاسِ إِمَامًا ۖ قَالَ وَمِن ذُرِّيَّتِي ۖ قَالَ لَا يَنَالُ عَهْدِي الظَّالِمِينَ ‎﴿١٢٤ When his Lord tested Abraham with certain words and he fulfilled them, He said, ‘I am making you the Imam of mankind.’ Said he, ‘And from among my descendants?’ He said, ‘My pledge does not extend to the unjust.’ 2:124 يَوْمَ نَدْعُو كُلَّ أُنَاسٍ بِإِمَامِهِمْ ۖ فَمَنْ أُوتِيَ كِتَابَهُ بِيَمِينِهِ فَأُولَٰئِكَ يَقْرَءُونَ كِتَابَهُمْ وَلَا يُظْلَمُونَ فَتِيلًا ‎﴿٧١ The day We shall summon every group of people along with their imam, then whoever is given his book in his right hand-they will read it, and they will not be wronged so much as a single date-thread. 17:71 وَجَعَلْنَاهُمْ أَئِمَّةً يَهْدُونَ بِأَمْرِنَا وَأَوْحَيْنَا إِلَيْهِمْ فِعْلَ الْخَيْرَاتِ وَإِقَامَ الصَّلَاةِ وَإِيتَاءَ الزَّكَاةِ ۖ وَكَانُوا لَنَا عَابِدِينَ ‎﴿٧٣﴾‏ We made them imams, guiding by Our command, and We revealed to them [concerning] the performance of good deeds, the maintenance of prayers, and the giving of zakat, and they used to worship Us. 21:73 إِنَّ عِدَّةَ الشُّهُورِ عِندَ اللَّهِ اثْنَا عَشَرَ شَهْرًا فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ يَوْمَ خَلَقَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ مِنْهَا أَرْبَعَةٌ حُرُمٌ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ الدِّينُ الْقَيِّمُ ۚ فَلَا تَظْلِمُوا فِيهِنَّ أَنفُسَكُمْ ۚ وَقَاتِلُوا الْمُشْرِكِينَ كَافَّةً كَمَا يُقَاتِلُونَكُمْ كَافَّةً ۚ وَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّ اللَّهَ مَعَ الْمُتَّقِينَ ‎﴿٣٦﴾‏ According to ibn Mansur's Lisan al-Arab, another word for Shahr is scholar. This ayah says there are 12 shuhoor, and that this is the upright religion. But are the number of Months really that important that it is a core aspect of Islam? The 5 times this phrase is mentioned ( ذَٰلِكَ الدِّينُ الْقَيِّمُ‏‏) show the 5 usul of Din according to Shia theology and aqaid. If we were to take the meaning of scholar, then the ayah would read that there are indeed 12 'scholars', referring to the 12 Aimmah of Ahlulbayt. Allah also says إِنَّمَا يُرِيدُ اللَّهُ لِيُذْهِبَ عَنكُمُ الرِّجْسَ أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ وَيُطَهِّرَكُمْ تَطْهِيرًا ‎﴿٣٣﴾‏ Indeed Allah desires to repel all impurity from you, O People of the Household, and purify you with a thorough purification. 33:33 which already proves their infallibility. Even in Sunni ahadith, there is a sahihi hadith which reads مَنْ مَاتَ وَلَمْ يَعْرِفْ اِمَامَ زَمَانِه مَاتَ مِيْتَةً جَاهِلِيَّةً “He who dies without knowing the imam of his time dies the death of ignorance.” This shows the importance of an Imam. Who will guide us then? Fallible people will only lead to corruption, as is clearly evident in history. Umar created so much bid'ah which was then built upon by the Umayyads. They persecuted the Shia and killed the Aimmah of Ahlulbayt. This is why Shia is correct. Here is also Imam Mahdi (ajtf) in sunni ahadith: www.al-islam.org/shiite-encyclopedia/sunni-documentation-imam-al-mahdi I suggest you read these: www.al-islam.org/imamah-and-khilafah-murtadha-mutahhari/imamah-quran en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imamate_in_Shia_doctrine#:~:text=By%20the%20verse%20Quran%2C%202,can%20be%20without%20an%20Imam. www.zurarah.com/ As for shia corpus lacking, that is a huge misunderstanding on your part. First you have to actually observe, then make judgement. But let me ask you this. Abu Hurayrah narrated 5374 ahadith while only spending 2 or 3 years with the Prophet. Is that not absurd? www.al-islam.org/shiite-encyclopedia/abu-hurairah-or-paul

Islam came to liberate people from the rule of priesthood. This is the only thing that differentiates Islam from the rest. As a sunni, I even believe those early sunni muslims who fought against the relatives of the prophet were justified in order to prevent Islam to turn into this royal blood related corporation where only the chosen ones get to dictate what is right and what is wrong. With that being said, i respect shias and we can learn from some of their hadeeths and teachings that do not go against the Quran

It is a political issue, Shia believe in genealogical claim to piety as the only claim to leadership. They believe in dynastic rule which they obtained from Iranian kingship model. So the progeny through one of the daughters of the Prophet (saww) as the only legitimate with political and religious authority. Dynastic rule has no place in Islam and per Tabari even Ali (rta) was agnostic whether his group and followers should do allegiance to his son Hassan (rta). Problem is that the three main groups of Shia, the Twelvers, Seveners and Fivers each claim their rulers/Imam were divinely appointed. The embarrassment is that God (nauzubillah) surely could not have erred. Thus Shias opened a back door to a continuation of Wahi. The problem of dynastic legitimacy became acutely problematic when the 12 imam probably was non existent and had to be hidden. Seventy years later the three interlocutors died and another crisis arose . So the greater occultation was invented. Any one knowledgeable of genetics will see through as ignorance because the genetic material is halved with each generation. There is no evidence of appointment of Ali (rta) , he was much junior than the trusted companions of the Prophet (saww) and the community taught the Shura principie were united In the election of AbuBakr, Omar and Uthman. Shiaism first arose as partisans of Ali (rta) as a political party and murdered Uthman. After the tragedy of Karbala it became a religion. The two heavy things are the Qur’an and the Sunnat. Ali (rta) is not mentioned in the Qur’an. The Ghadeer is a minor event . It makes zero sense, because Ghadeer occurred after the final sermon. If it was any consequence the Prophet (saww) would have announced when virtually all the Muslims were present at the hajj. Ghadeer was meant reduce the friction between Ali (rta) and those who felt they had not been fairly treated by him. Shia history is narrated to retrospectly fulfill their ideological position. When given power the Shia have killed Muslims or gone to war against them, but not against non Muslims. The Saffavid brutal rule is testimony to forced conversions, war against the Ottomans and alliance with the Portuguese who were sinking ships carrying pilgrims to Makkah. Recently the Iranian Shia regime collaborated in the occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan and then in collaboration with the torture regime of Assad, unleashed genocide on Syrian Muslims with help of Hizbullah and the Russian war machine . In India they support the Modi govt and demolition of Babri masjid. The Quran considers the wives of the Prophet(saww) as the ahl albayt. Which makes sense because they could not work or remarry and stay at home. Whereas Ali (rta) was a warrior and had his own household, so he was not helpless. The Shia appear to be confused between the ahle bayt in the Qur’an and their interpretation, whereas in 7th Century Arabia, women after marriage were ahle bayt of their husbands. For example Ayesha (rta) is mot referred to as ahle bayt of AbuBakr (rta) rather, as mentioned in the Qur’an , the ahle bayt of the Prophet (saww). Loosely the term can be applied to other related households or clans. The republican impulse of Islam as Shura, as in the Qur’an and in the election of four rightly guided caliphs is absent in the Shia political thought .

intercession is in the Quran: No intercessor can plead with Him except by His permission. [10:3] Who is he that can intercede with Him except with His permission? [2:255] On that Day, no intercession shall avail, except the one from whom Allah, the Most Gracious has given permission and whose word is acceptable to Him. [21:28] None shall have the power of intercession except one who has received permission or a promise from Allah, the Most Gracious.[19:87] Intercession with Him profits none except for those He permits.[34:23] the topic of imamate has been in debate for centuries and its foundations are laid out in the quran what there is a difference on is who fits this role and its conditions. wilayatul faqih is not a theological doctrine, it is a political theory so no need to mention it since its not a part of the faith.

How do Shias reconcile the clear innovations in their practices when the Prophet (SAW) clearly forbade innovation? For example, they add Ali to the Azan, even though that’s not how the Azan was given during the time of the Prophet (SAW). Allah (SWT) says in the Quran (5:3): “This day I have perfected for you your religion and completed My favor upon you and have approved for you Islām as religion” so how can you change something that is perfect? 🤔

I disagree with any teachings that centred itself around mortal figures. In a hadith, the Prophet said "Narrated from Umar, I heard the Prophet (ﷺ) saying, "Do not exaggerate in praising me as the Christians praised the son of Mary, for I am only a Slave. So, call me the Slave of Allah and His Apostle." Sahih Bukhari If we are not supposed to exaggerate in praising the Prophet, what more to say of other non prophetic mortal figures, which according to Sunni understanding, capable of making mistakes and do not received any divine relevations. When the first creation was ever created, the only true reality was and still is, there is the Creator and there is the created. And the Creator is what matter most and never the created, no matter what and who. And it is our duty to exalt Him and Him only.

It was narrated that al-Bara’ (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) say: “The Ansaar: no one loves them but a believer and no one hates them but a hypocrite. Whoever loves them, Allaah will love him, and whoever hates them, Allaah will hate him.” Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 3672; Muslim, 75. If a man who hates the Ansaar cannot be a believer and that makes him a hypocrite, then how about one who hates the Ansaar and Muhaajireen and those who followed them in truth, and slanders them, curses them and denounces them and those who love them as kaafirs - as the Raafidis do? Undoubtedly they deserve more to be regarded as kaafirs and hypocrites, and of not being believers. Al-Tahhaawi said, discussing the beliefs of Ahl al-Sunnah wa’l-Jamaa’ah: We love the companions of the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and we do not neglect to love any one of them, nor do we disavow any one of them. We hate those who hate them and who criticize them, and we only mention them in good terms. Loving them is part of religious commitment, faith and ihsaan, and hating them is kufr, hypocrisy and wrongdoing.

Great discussion. Most scholars would say the source books of shia Islam are not authentic. Even Khomeini stated that Sahifa Sajjadiya is not sound in its transmission. Also, with all love and respect to our Shia brethren, just as the trinity is not found in the Bible, Imamiya is not found in the Quran, but eisegesisly forcibly read into it. No one who picks up the Quran for the first time would ever gain an understanding of anything Imamiyya related. For such a central tenant of faith it's simply not found in the Quran.

Excellent point and my argument as well for so long, why if imamah is a central doctrine of belief that it is not clearly and explicitly explained like surah ikhlas? Very trinity like argument indeed. Check all the converts, that point is very good that converts never pick up imamah or the ahmadi group's khilafa or other ideas when they read the quran, they pretty much always take the straightforward meaning and just become Muslim. For imamah and other sects someone has to manually make the case and explain to them

It is good that this guest is trying to put a moderate point of view of shias, but my own experience (as being raised in Iran) was different. Our shia teacher was saying: "If you don't believe in 12 imams as being infallible and true successors of Prophet Muhammad, then basically you are not Muslim. We might consider Sunnis as Muslim in the appearence but not from inside." Unfortunately, cursing/insulting Sahaba is an integral part of Shia faith. Their extremes utter insults openly but their moderates keep themselves away from it. It is impossible that hearts come closer together if one group loves a figure/individual while the other group hates and curses that person. That is my realistic conclusion. Nevertheless, we should not fight or kill one another because of these historical issues.

Thank you Paul for making your platform accessible to the Shi'a point of view. 'Ikhtilaaf' is fine, afterall, each one of us will enter our own grave, alone, and answer for our own aa'maal, hence no point cursing each other or fighting unnecessarily. A primary point of ikhtilaaf between the sects is that the Shi'a view themselves as following the Prophet's (PBUH) true teachings as narrated through his family (Imamate). While the Sunnis follow the narrative of the Sahaba. Similar to how Christians dont follow James (Christ's brother and appointed) and follow Paul instead. We can dialog on this peacefully, without resorting to violence, and leave the ikhtilaaf to academic discussions and not extend betond that. Insha'Allah.

At the end of the day, they are not the Jama’ah (Majority/main body of Muslims). I converted to the Shia sect ten years ago after being showed “proofs” from Sahih Bukhari and attracted to their adab (manners). I asked about tatbir and the cursing of the loved ones (رضي الله عنهم) of Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) and was taught that it was the ignorant and extreme members of the Shia sect that did that. I wasn’t Shia for an whole hour, after converting, and takfir was made on our Sayyid Umar ibn al-Khattab (رضي الله عنه) by one and the rest laughed in agreement. That experience was enough for me to dissociate myself from that sect.

No one actually worships graves. That's a really dumb thing to accuse anyone of. I've been to the main Shi'a shrines and they don't worship the dead or believe that those in the tombs are deities. Why do you spout such slander against people who believe and declare in their prayers, day after day, La Ilaha Il-Allah, Muhammadur Abduhu wa Rasuluh? It is a blasphemy to accuse a self-professed Muslim of not being a Muslim.

Dialogue in an atmosphere of brotherhood is the way forward rather than falling into fighting and killing...the hallmarks of the Khawarij. Congrats to Br. Paul for this excellent discussion.

I don’t have to be Phd to understand the simple fact that Allah Swt condemned the divisions in the Deenul Islam. It’s the brainchild of shaitan and the benefactor of this division could be someone whose background could be traced to having a strong connection to the tribes of Jews at the times of the Prophet, pbuh. I don’t think that those who have divided the Deen into sects have anything to do with the Prophet and forfeit shifa/ intercession of the Prophet pbuh. They have weakened the Ummah, and they will have to pay the price for it. Mind you Allah Swt is Tauwabur Raheem and Afuwan Gafoor for those who turn to Him in repentance.

Remarkably well presented by Dr. Jaffer. Indeed, Seyyed Hossein Nassr is a jewel amongst scholars whose work transcends 'sectarian' divides - his works certainly inspired me towards Islam (I am a revert, Sunni). I don't think any discourse on the historical differentiation between Sunni and Shia on the social (and eventually sectarian) level would be possible without a discussion on the political (and therefore social) dynamics of the medieval period, especially during and after the Ummayads, Dr. Jaffer alluded to this, but I don't think many people realize the long-lasting effect that it had. An honest historical perspective is important.

I'm glad to see such a civil discussion. Thank you Paul for bringing on a prominent Shi'a Muslim American academic and community leader. I hope you will invite more Shi'a Muslim leaders and thinkers onto Blogging Theology. Please watch the video before commenting! For all Muslims here, please calmly reflect before commenting, and refrain from expressing hatred toward people! Please know that to cast doubt on and reject the stated, declared Islam of one who says and believes themselves to be a Muslim is a kind of blasphemy. By calling a self-professed Muslim a non-Muslim, you dare to say that that person is outside the fold of Islam according to your own parameters of what Islam should be, and those scholars and the tradition (Sunni or Shi'a) you choose to follow and respect. You are not God; you do not know another person's mind or heart, and to presume that you do is extremely arrogant, prideful, and patronising. If someone freely and voluntarily affirms that there is no deity but the one God, and that Prophet Muhammad (may God bless him and grant him and his family peace) is His servant and Messenger, that persons understands himself or herself to be a Muslim, a submitter to, recognizer, and worshipper of the one God (called in Arabic, Allah, The God). If that person believes in the God who sent down the Qur'an that *all* Muslims use and recite and read from today, if that person loves Prophet Muhammad and all the Prophets venerated and revered in Islam (may God bless them all with His peace), they are by their own will a Muslim. You can choose to disagree with a person's view of the intended succession to Prophet Muhammad (p), you can passionately believe that you are correct and they are wrong, that your view of history and the narrations you follow and believe in are more accurate and more truthful, and that theirs is misguided, but to dare to say to a self-professed Muslim "you are not a Muslim because of X, Y, and Z" is to dare to say that you know a person's mind and heart better than they do. This is a huge sin, and extremely indecent. Nowhere in God's Word to us does He clearly say "if you believe this about Prophet Muhammad's companions, or this about his family, you leave Islam". If this was a matter of salvation, of our very souls depending on accepting the only one possibly true version of Islam on the question of sacred and political authority after the death of Prophet Muhammad (p), God in His Mercy would not have allowed these two distinct traditions to develop as they have over 1,400 centuries.

That's one of the most unintelligent things I've ever read, by which you reveal your ignorance. In Shi'a books the Prophet Muhammad (S) did clearly mention the 12 Imams, though you'd obviously reject the authenticity of those books. Circular logic that you follow allows you to only accept Sunni books, and that the Shi'a books that clearly show 12er Imams laid out by the Prophet Muhammad (S) are all fabricated. I imagine it would make you very uncomfortable to even consider the idea that the Sunni hadith books are inaccurate and that a lot of authentic things were suppressed, kept from them, or censored from them by the Abbasid regime. If Twelver Shi'a Islam as it exists today was proved incorrect, I'd still remain a Muslim, and Imam Ali's merits stand unto themselves. But if Lady Fatima was correct in her dispute over Fadak with Abu Bakr, would you honestly remain a Muslim? Can you even bear the thought of being wrong? Many Sunnis over the centuries were convinced that Imam Ali was the most superior of the companions, and didn't hate the first three caliphs. I myself don't hate them because Imam Ali obviously did not rebel against their de facto political power; he at least tacitly acknowledged them as legitimate by refusing to oppose them by force of arms. Please be aware that not all Shi'a curse the first 3 caliphs or Lady Aisha (in fact, almost all Shi'a I know in real life don't do these things, and I know dozens upon dozens of Shi'as, have seen them at prayer, etc).

This man is mostly speaking individually and very little about Shia Fiqh. No doubt there are sincere good people within Shia Islam but the majority loves to curse and ridicule the companions of the Prophet. It's a trend among the younger ones (teenagers) and they try to outdo one another in vile curses. The way they use Taqqiyah is also an extremely perverted version of Ammar bin Yasir's. He only lied to save his life but it wasn't part of his heart, after that he participated in the battle of Badr. The Shia sect is comparable to Christianity (trinity), it has too many shirk pitfalls so the followers are more prone to shirk, even if they perceive it not. There are entire groups within the 12er Shiasm that commit flat out shirk (Ghalis, Alawis, Ismailis etc). They consider most companions bad even though we have verses in the Quran like this: *As for the foremost-the first of the Emigrants and the Helpers-and those who follow them in goodness, Allah is pleased with them and they are pleased with Him. And He has prepared for them Gardens under which rivers flow, to stay there for ever and ever. That is the ultimate triumph*. Allah also promised the expansion of Islam, ALL of it was done by "Sunnis" while Shia were causing trouble from within and starting dynasties with convert or die policy (Fatimids) against Sunni muslims. Alhamdulilah for Islam.

​@@_Gunner_ people like you spread all these misinformations of Shia Islam. First of all, we should not ridicule anyone. That is not the behaviour of the Prophet (saww) and Ahlulbayt (ams). We do la'nah on the enemies of Allah just as He has done in the Quran. Taqiyyah has been used because we Shia have been targeted by almost every single ruler in history. First Abu Bakr killed Shias in the Ridda Wars, then the Umayyads, then Abbasids, Mughals under Aurangzeb, Ottomans under Selim I, etc. Taqiyya was required to save the lives. And even now, in countries like Saudi and Malaysia, Shias are still in danger, which makes taqiyyah required. How do you know how we use Taqiyyah? The misinformation people like you spread causes people to think Shiaism is Shirk. Wallahil Adhim Shiaism in not shirk. Tawassul is allowed in Islam, but no one prays to anyone other than Allah. If you have a problem with tawassul, then that is a different issue that we can address. But as per shirk, there is no shirk in Shiaism. The fact that you claim that Ismailis and Alawis are parts of Twelverism just shows your ignorance and lack of knowledge. I won't even comment about that because that is just pure ignorance on your part. There were muhajirs and ansar who were not the foremost of them that were hypocrites after them. The Ayah could mean a number of things, but there are historical examples and mentions of hypocrites everywhere then. Hypocrite could refer to you, because how can you claim that All expansion was done by Sunnis while the Shias had 'convert or die policy'? That is retardedness at its fineness. Sunnis were the ones who used convert or die, like the Umayyads, Abbasids and especially the Mughals under Aurangzeb. Fatimids aren't even real Shia, they are just Ismaili descendants of the Prophet who abused thier lineage and claimed Imamah when Imamah didn't even go through Islmail but through Musa ibn Jafar (as). Shias have always been oppressed by everyone, while Sunnis have been doing the oppressing. Look at Daesh, ISIS, and taliban. Are those Shia? No, they are sunni

Taqiya is a touchy subject. Let's get it out in the open and talked about. And thanks to br. Paul for this podcast.

ASAK gentleman. Thank you for such a reasonable, respectful and interesting discussion providing alternative perspectives on various events after the demise of the Prophet (PBUH). I was especially interested in the ‘Spiritual Pslams’ mentioned as written by the 4th Shi ite Imam? and the relationship mentioned between the 6th Shi ite Imam & Imam Abu Hanifa too. I also understand the 6th Imam was at one time the respected ‘Mufti of Medina’ and there are narrations in Sunni hadith books attributed to him. I also heard that his lineage goes back to both the Prophet (PBUH) and Abu Bakr (RA) & perhaps why he is respected in both traditions? I know traditional Sunni Islam also has a particularly respect for the near family of the Prophet and Ali Fatemah Hassan & Hussain although that emphasis seems strangely to have declined in more recent times (30/40 years) with a greater emphasis on the Prophets companions. It was particularly interesting to hear that the split between Sunni & Shia was exaggerated during the times of Safavid dynasty and the modern day sectarian polemics were not so overtly prevalent during the formative years? Something that both Shia & Sunni as Moslems could & should reflect on! Thx again for an interesting discussion.

Respect to you that you took this opportunity to bring forth understanding of Shia from a Shia scholar on the channel but I would strongly request you delve in this research more since most of this is a watered down presentation of Shia’s outlook which Shia scholars usually present to not stir up controversy when discussing about their viewpoints and usually they will say we are alike but this is far from the truth.

My View is, is we come to a common understanding and be not devided amongst ourselves, unite over the commonality and not divide over our personal theological differences and beliefs Both communities have a single common historical person at a single point in time, Hazrat Ali RA, a leader accepted by both communities, as Caliph, the common Root, accepted 100% at one point in history by both communities, ruler of the 100%, Ameerul mumineen, Ashra al mubashara...WOW...a beautiful man....for Sunni's and Shias I feel a good reason to unite

Ali 'Imran 3:103 And hold firmly to the rope of Allāh all together and do not become divided. And remember the favor of Allāh upon you - when you were enemies and He brought your hearts together and you became, by His favor, brothers. And you were on the edge of a pit of the Fire, and He saved you from it. Thus does Allāh make clear to you His verses that you may be guided.

Shia Rafidha and Sunni Islam are two distinct religion Main differences among them are as follows 1. Their Belief Concerning The Twelve Imāms Of The Shi’ah The foremost Shi’ite cleric Al-Kulainī mentioned in his book, Usūl al-Kāfī (1/258-260): “If the Imāms desire to know something, they come to know it. They know when they will die - and none of them dies unless they choose to do so themselves.” 2. The Shi’ite Belief Regarding The Noble Qur’ān. The Rāfidah claim that the Qur’ān that is with the People of Sunnah is not that which was revealed to Muhammad (salallāhu ‘alaihi wasallam). They claim it has been altered, changed and added to. Indeed the vast majority of their clerics and scholars believe the Qur’an has been altered and distorted from the original, as has been mentioned clearly by their cleric, An-Nūrī at-Tabrīsī (d. 1320 AH) in his book, Fasl ul-Khitāb fī Ithbāt Tahrīfi Kitāb il-Arbāb. 3. Their Belief With Respect To The Companions Of Allāh’s Messenger (salallāhu ‘alaihi wasallam) And His Wives “All the people apostated after the Prophet (salallāhu ‘alaihi wasallam) except for three, those being: Miqdād ibn Aswad, Abu Dharr al-Ghifārī and Salmān al-Fārisī.” (Rijāl al-Kashshī, p.6, Al-Kāfī Kitāb ar-Rawdah, 12/312,322, with Sharh Jāmi’ of Māzindarānī)
