I'm a Shia and i really appreciate Dr. Ally's fair treatment of the subject. I'm so tired of hearing uneducated people claim that Shias were founded by Abdullah ibn Saba' and all this other nonsense. He is very objective in his response and very kind in extending his hand towards Shias to work towards the common good. May Allah SWT reward him.
Brother we like to come together. But there are some people who consider themselves Shia curse the companions and curse our mother Aisha . Not only that they call oh Ali instead of Allah. How do plan to fix them?
@@talalal-fahmi5746 I don't plan on fixing them, I plan on fixing you. Learn to tolerate religious differences and differences of opinion. In the West, we have Muslims living side by side with atheists, jews and christians, yet the Shia who fulfill all of the pillars of Islam, have the same Qiblah etc, are so radically different that you can't work with them? Also, tawassul is not a sunni-shia issue, it's a salafi vs everyone else issue.
@@AbeAlJ you know they are wrong . So it's OK to curse the companions of the prophet ? It's OK to curse the wives of the prophet? Also there's a difference between tawasul and what we see some Shias do . And if I ask some Shias what are the five pillars of Islam they won't say it like other Muslims They would say al wilayah not Haj . . All the Muslims don't have this exempt Shias. You hate salafies why ? Give me a good reason. They follow the Quran and the othintec hadeth.
@@talalal-fahmi5746 "And if I ask some Shias what are the five pillars of Islam they won't say it like other Muslims " That is simply a difference in name or classification. Shias say the 5 usool of Islam are tawheed, adalah, nubuwwah, imamah and qiyamah. These are aqaa'id or beliefs. Shias say the furoo' are: salaat, sawm, hajj, zakaat, khums, jihad, amr bil maroof, nahi an al-munkar, tawalaa, tabaraa. Every Muslim agrees on the wujoob of these acts. As for the Shahadatayn, even if it is not listed here, shias also believe that is what enters one into Islam and shias say it in every salat. I don't hate all salafis, but I find they tend to be the most aggressive, vitriolic, and unjust group towards their opponents and also the dumbest. They do not follow the sunnah because the sunnah is "I was sent to perfect moral character."
@@AbeAlJ all the five pillars are in the Quran even Jihad and khumus except Imamah it's not there . Also they curse the wives of the prophet and they curse the companions. There's also many biddah they do . You don't talk about these wrong doings and you just say that salafis are herd on them ? The salafis always speak with evidence from the Quran and the authentic hadeth. If you really want to know who's ignorant then they are the ones who curse the companions and the wives of the prophet and the one who innovate in Islam like some Shias . Not all Shias are like that but most of who are known.
Mashallah! I'm a shia and I'm very impressed at the fairness, coherence, and the respect presented in this video. Alhamdulillah for educated and fair people like this who exist on both sides.
“You Ali are to me in position that Harun was to Musa, except that there is no prophet after me" "Of whomsoever I am the Master (Maula) Ali is his master (Maula) too.” -- Prophet Muhammad
You start reading, ok Prophet did say that about Ali, not Omar. صحيح البخاري، ج 4، ص 1602 صحيح مسلم، ج 4، ص 1870 صحيح مسلم، ج 4، ص 1870 صحيح مسلم، ج 4، ص 1870 الاستيعاب، ج 3، ص 1097 و تهذيب الكمال، ج 20، ص 483 و 484
This is the Shia position as tuz345 mentioned. Hazrat Ali being the first Imam. It must be added there has always been an Imam e Mubin - a living or manifest Imam. "We Allah) has vested/kept everything in the Manifest Imam" Qur'an sura Ya Sin 36:12.
Salam. I am Shia and I have had the honor of being a colleague of a good number of Sunni brothers. I have not had any single problem with them. I even feel closer to a few of them more than I do to my Shia friends. Shia and Sunni are very similar in fundamental principles. I wonder why some people try to accentuate the differences rather than the commonalities. Even the siblings born to the same parents think differently. Why should we expect everyone to think alike?
Can I ask u why u believe in concept of the 12 divinely appointed infallible Imams? No concept of such leadership exists on the Quran www.shia.bs How can Shia believe in an article of faith nowhere in the quran
@@aliansari3060 Ali, because of people like you, the shia-sunni split continues to cause harm and stir up conflicts. You wrote out of your petty, small mindedness to a well meaning comment. That's just pathetic.
Sunni Muslims strictly follow and abide by the teachings of Prophet Muhammad PBUH ....Ben Khalid Mohammed is an amazing Muslim profile on Facebook and this brother is inspiring millions of people to embrace Islam Alhamdulila
Now I love Shabir Ally; he is my favorite scholar. However I was bit disappointed by this talk of his. He mainly focused on the "political" divide between Sunni and Shi'a and he failed to go in depth of the religious divide/differences such the unforgivable amount of shirk and and negative bid'ah which has arisen from the Shi'a side.
This is a question for Dr. Shabir Ally. if you read Quran itself and what Allah ordered then we should be MUSLIMS ONLY. Any sectarian in Islam is prohibited and will have (Great Punishment) as Allah said Himself. So WHY you don't tell the people the TRUTH which Allah ordered you to tell the people? These are Allah's orders and I'm waiting for your answer. Thank you: Quran 6:159 Indeed, those who have divided their religion and become sects - you, [O Muhammad], are not [associated] with them in anything. Quran 30:31-32 do not be of those who associate others with Allah. Of those who have divided their religion and become sects, every faction rejoicing in what it has. Quran 3:105 And do not be like the ones who became divided and differed after the clear proofs had come to them. And those will have a great punishment. Quran 3:19 Indeed, the religion in the sight of Allah is Islam. And those who were given the Scripture did not differ except after knowledge had come to them - out of jealous animosity between themselves. And whoever disbelieves in the verses of Allah , then indeed, Allah is swift in [taking] account. إِنَّ الَّذِينَ فَرَّقُوا دِينَهُمْ وَكَانُوا شِيَعًا لَّسْتَ مِنْهُمْ فِي شَيْءٍ ۚ إِنَّمَا أَمْرُهُمْ إِلَى اللَّهِ ثُمَّ يُنَبِّئُهُم بِمَا كَانُوا يَفْعَلُونَ سورة الأنعام ١٥٩ مُنِيبِينَ إِلَيْهِ وَاتَّقُوهُ وَأَقِيمُوا الصَّلَاةَ وَلَا تَكُونُوا مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ .مِنَ الَّذِينَ فَرَّقُوا دِينَهُمْ وَكَانُوا شِيَعًا ۖ كُلُّ حِزْبٍ بِمَا لَدَيْهِمْ فَرِحُونَ سورة الروم ٣١-٣٢ وَلَا تَكُونُوا كَالَّذِينَ تَفَرَّقُوا وَاخْتَلَفُوا مِن بَعْدِ مَا جَاءَهُمُ الْبَيِّنَاتُ ۚ وَأُولَـٰئِكَ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ عَظِيمٌ. سورة آل عمران ١٠٥ أَقِيمُوا الدِّينَ وَلَا تَتَفَرَّقُوا فِيهِ ۚ كَبُرَ عَلَى الْمُشْرِكِينَ مَا تَدْعُوهُمْ إِلَيْهِ ۚ سورة الشورى 13 إِنَّ الدِّينَ عِندَ اللَّهِ الْإِسْلَامُ ۗ وَمَا اخْتَلَفَ الَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْكِتَابَ إِلَّا مِن بَعْدِ مَا جَاءَهُمُ الْعِلْمُ بَغْيًا بَيْنَهُمْ ۗ وَمَن يَكْفُرْ بِآيَاتِ اللَّهِ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ سَرِيعُ الْحِسَابِ . سورة آل عمران ١٩ فَإِنْ حَاجُّوكَ فَقُلْ أَسْلَمْتُ وَجْهِيَ لِلَّهِ وَمَنِ اتَّبَعَنِ ۗ - سورة آل عمران ٢٠ إِذْ قَالَ لَهُ رَبُّهُ أَسْلِمْ ۖ قَالَ أَسْلَمْتُ لِرَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ. سورة البقرة ١٣١ فَلَا تَمُوتُنَّ إِلَّا وَأَنتُم مُّسْلِمُونَ البقرة ١٣٢
With all respect , Shia today has nothing to do with Islam. They committee shirk in their practice, and most of their practice have no thing to do with Islam. Yes at the beginning it was political matter, but eventually has become a different religion has no thing to with Islam. What Shia almost believe about Ali is the same Christians belief about Jesus. Moreover, they have no traditions or sayings for prophet Muhammad, and some of their scholar do not believe in Quran as authentic book because they think Quran has been corrupted by prophet's companions! Therfore, Shia today has nothing to do with Islam.
tornado 1 sunnis believe of muhammad like christians to. They make the hadiths an obligation. If somebody dont follow the hadiths, he is not a muslim for them. So they make muhammad a divine man. Sunnis are no better then shia, friend, so judge yourself before judging others.
Itd only make sense for the most pure and rightous muslim to lead the muslim world since in quran 33:33 mentions only ahlul bait and the prophet are pure muslims and not prone to sins and ahlul bait were purified by Allah himself so obviously theyd have had Ali as the first caliph how hard is that to understand logically speaking itd make more sense for him to be the successor of the prophet pbuh when even your first three caliphs went to Ali for guidance
I almost cried after listening to this speech. Finally, someone who understands and agrees with me and others who see that each side has partial truths. I myself was born a Shia, yet after moving to North America I became so confused with this whole Shia/Sunni debate. I have lived in torment, and I DO MEAN TORMENT, for almost 4 years now because I myself don't have the resources to fully understand and make a decision about this. All I want to do is perform good deeds, and make Allah Happy.
Jazakallah khair brother, I personally dont refer to myself as sunni or shia, i think labeling ourselves as anything other than muslims kinda changes the message of the quran, but like you i want peace between our differences, people just need to stop preaching hate
Brother if read the some Shias books you will find that it goes against what Islam is . But I really do hope that our brothers from the Shias side open their eyes and stand for the truth
Mashaa'Allah, brother Shabir Ally is an aluable asset to our Muslim community. Allah has granted him wisdom and kubul (Aura of benevolence and charisma). I appreciate his contributions...
Salam. By Islamic standard, when someone proclaims that Allah is one, and the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) is his Last Messenger and believes in the hereafter, that person is a Muslim. I am surprised to see a so-called "Muslim" accuses Shias of being evil-worshipers. Even if there be some erroneous in a sect, we are not allowed to ex-communicate the followers of that sect as followers of evil. May Allah (SWT) guide all of us to the right path.
Write In Sha Allah all three separately, because according to some scholars if written together it could mean something which could be associated with shirk...
The messenger of Allah (saww) said: "I am leaving for you two precious and weighty Symbols that if you adhere to both of them you shall not go astray after me. They are, the Book of Allah, and my progeny, that is my Ahlul-Bayt. The Merciful has informed me that These two shall not separate from each other till they come to me by the Pool (of Paradise)." Sahih al-Tirmidhi, Volume 5, Page 662-663 Sahih al-Tirmidhi, Volume 5, Page 328 Al-Mustadrak, by al-Hakim, Volume 3, Page 109 ...and much more
There has already been a discussion between the sunnis and shias in a book called 'peshawar nights' which was banned from being published in certain muslim countries because of the victory of the shias in the debate which was a debate regarding everything
Prophet muhammad said Whom ever im mola Ali is his mola after me So simple it is well known hadees in sunni n shias Why not propher said abubakar umar usman ?
@@aadeshsingh1816 _ And it is interesting that when Abu Bakr uses this it means "king, successor and master" and not friend! - But when it is used about Ali it just simply means "friend"!
As a shia myself i have long been searching the truth, I guess I will only get to know the truth on the day of judgement. May Allah forgive us and guide us before that day comes.
Don't give up! Look into what the Shia books says, they are doing shirk, so please only worship Allah and don't give his attributes to others, please. A single second in jahannam is terrible enough
I am not a shia, I am a muslim, and this is what you should be saying too brother, if someone asks what are you, should say you are a muslim brother as it says in surah ali imran chapter 3 verse 103- And hold firmly to the rope of Allah all together and do not become divided
Quran 2:154 "Never say about those who are killed in the way of Allah "dead"; Nay they are ALIVE but you cannot feel it" So never says the DEATH of the Prophet. As for Ali in the Quran see 5:55-56 and join the Party of Allah if you are truthful. God >
Six months passed and imam Ali a.s. did not give any Baiah or allegiance to Abo Bakr,here Abo Bakr sent Omar and his soldiers to the house of Fatima a.s(Daughter of Mohamed s.w.) and imam Ali a.s.,Omar pushed the door of the house while Fatima was behind the door ,and he broke her ribs and she lost the baby in her belly ,Ali a.s. did not fight back because he did not want to make a division in the muslim nations and take it through wars.Fatima died angry 2 months after&was burried secretlyWHERE?
This is a great video, I am part of a Shi'a family and technically follow the Shi'a doctrine, but I don't claim to be part of any sect. Although I do hold the view that Imam Ali was the Prophet's rightful successor, I do so whilst never showing disrespect towards the mothers of believers, the first 3 Caliphs and my Sunni brethren.
ALLAHU AKBAR if we consider what shia means it means follower all muslims are followers of the prophet and worship Allah. Did you just say muslims are not muslims?
The Quran offers us a more detailed understanding of Where (and Who) Allah is.  "Certainly your Lord is Allah, Who created the heavens and the earth in six yaum (days or periods of time), and then He Istawa (rose above) the Throne. He brings the night as a cover over the day rapidly, and the sun, the moon, the stars subject to His Command. Surely, His is the Creation and the Commandment. Blessed be Allah, the Lord of the universe!" [Noble Quran 7:54]  "Indeed, your Lord is Allah, Who created the heavens and the earth in six yaum (days or periods of time), and then He Istawa (rose above), the Throne, disposing the affair of everything. No intercessor (can plead with Him) except by His Permission. This is Allah, your Lord, so worship Him. Won't you then remember?" [Noble Quran 10:3]  "It is Allah who erected the heavens without pillars that you [can] see; then He Istawa (rose above) the Throne and made subject the sun and the moon, each running [its course] for a specified term. He arranges [each] matter; He details the signs that you may, of the meeting with your Lord, be certain." [Noble Quran 13:2]  Who created the heavens and the earth in six yaum (days or periods of time), and then He Istawa (rose above) the Throne. The Most Beneficent! Ask Him, as He is Al-Khabir (The All-Knower of everything). [Noble Quran 25:59]  Who created the heavens and the earth in six yaum (days or periods of time), and then He Istawa (rose above) the Throne. You (mankind) have none, besides Him, as a Wali (protector or helper etc.) or an intercessor. Won't you then remember (accepting admonishment)? [Noble Quran 32:4]  And indeed We (Allah uses the word "We" in the royal sense like the king who says, "We decree the following...", this is not in the plural) created the heavens and the earth and everything in between in six days and fatigue never touched Us (again, this is the royal "Us" not plural). [Noble Quran 50:38]  He is the One Who created the heavens and the earth in six yaum (days or periods of time), and then He Istawa (rose above) the Throne. He knows what goes into the earth and what comes forth from it, what descends from the heaven and what ascends up to it. And He is with you (by His Knowledge) where so ever you may be. And Allah is the All-Seer of what you do. [Noble Quran 57:4] We observe from these statements a very logical approach to understanding the nature of God without comparing Him to creation or putting Him in His creation.
I am a sunni.I embraced Islam few years back.Just one advice.Brother Shabbir is not trying to inflame Shia-Sunni divide.He just tried to strenghten Shia-Sunni Unity.THere are differences but better talh about similarities.
May Allah reward Brother Shabir Ally abundantly for his sincere, just and open-minded expositions of Islamic issues, such as this one and those concerning Prophet Isa (a.s.) and the claims of Christianity. I pray that he be granted jannah for his work to humanity.
Exactly Thats the beauty of the Noble Quran. It distinguishes between those who believed and those disbelieved and trangressed among the children of Isreal. Phenomenal
There are also massive theological differences between us. Number one twlevers do not believe in predestination. Within their books they grant almost god like qualities to their imams. They use people who have passed away dead people ie the great imams as a intercessor between them and god and ask them to speak to god on their behalf. I was going to be shia I've seen it myself. All I could hear in my head as I saw this was you alone we worship you alone we ask for help. I've never looked at the shia religion since
brother youtube 'how Islam was corrupted' it exposes the 'sunni' religion which claims Allah (SWT) has a body with fingers and shins as said in their 'sahih' Muslim and Bukhari. To answer your question, the main difference between 'sunni' and Shia is that we curse the killers of Fatima al-Zahra (as) while they praise them, what Umar and Abu Bakr (la) did to Fatima al-Zahra (as) is in their own books. Sallam
IDK if this relates to the subject at hand. There is a gesture I have seen fellow Muslims do at the end of their prayers. Apparently they blow on their hands and pass both hands over the head and down their beards. I have not found this gesture referenced or mentioned anywhere. Does anyone know anything about this? Is it a gesture unique to Sunni or Shia?
achi instead of judging people by their appearance judge him by what he is doing and saying. He did not speak ill of Shias,he did not attack them Why don´t you look what this GUY is doing for ISlam.He is an exellent debater and is doing live debates with Christians jews atheists. He is very succesful in DAwa Calling people to Islam.And defending the honor of Islam and the prophet! He is even a respected person among shia scholars because they see what he is doing for Islam BE respectfull
Back to Joseph 90 years old marrying Mary 12-14 years old . Catholic Encyclopaedia says : , " When 40 years of age , Joseph married a woman called Melcha or Escha by some , Salome by others ; they lived 49 years together & had 6 children , 2 daughters & 4 sons . A year after his wife's death , as the priests announced through Judea that they wished to find in the tribe of Juda a respectable man to espouse Mary .
as a shia, i can say that although he is a little bias when he talks about shias and their beliefs but ahlamdulilah he is a little open minded and accepting within reason... mashallah.. unity for al muslims inshallah! jazkumullah khairan for the upload
Your question can be answer by another. What was Ali behavior when the Sahabahs took from him the right to lead the muslims?? He simply accepted it as long as it was for the good of a United Islam and its extension and Good Shias will do the same and respect the Sahabahs. Any one telling you something else doesn't understand shiism. And just like we have "bad" shias, there are bad "sunnis". Why don't you get it? Now question: What do you celebrate on the 10th of Muharam?
Hussein (ra) was living in Makka,he was invited to be imam by shias in Kufa,this is where he was betrayed by them and killed. Out of 18000 who made oath of allegiance with him fled & left him with 71 men from Makka...until today they regret what they have done to him. Had they only displayed that same spirit of compassion for Al-Husain when he was so much in need of it ,the history of Islâm might have taken a different course...They did the crime of deserting Al-Husain (ra).
My Allah ... Everything has to be so complicated for the people !!! I don't care about political dispute, I just wan't to earn my place in Haven... I think that following holy Quran, doing good deeds, and fearing Allah is a way to do... And who was right and who was wrong ... Well ... Allah will inform us all for sure!!! And Allah knows the best!!
Sunnis say that when Angel jibreel came to Mohamed s.w. for the first time,Mohamed s.w. was illiterate while Shias say he was literate .Sunnis say he was scared, Shias say he was not .Sunnis say he was trying to commit suicide ,Shias say he was not because was expecting Angel Jibreel appearance in any day.Quran says Ali is waliu Allah,Ayat or verse Alwilaia,"innama waliakum Allah warasoulah waallathina Amano Allathin yakimon alSalat wayaatoon al Zakat wahum Rakioon"Revealed in Ali givingHis ring
Quran " Alyawm Akmalto Alaikum Niimati wa radito lakum al islam deenan".And today i completed my bounty upon you, and i am satisfied that i chose islam as your religion".By appointing imam Ali a.s. Successor islam was completed and Allah s.w. would protect you Oh Mohamed s.w.(yasimoka min al Naass)means protect you from people.
John: 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God.3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made."29The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world."
Bro, there are AUTHENTIC narrations that the Prophet (saw) instructed by Allah gave the 10 Asharah Mubasharah glad tidings of paradise. Sayyidina Ali (ra) was included. This is like a fundamental aspect of our Deen. Umar (ra) had such a status in the Prophet's sight that he claimed that had there been a Prophet after him it'd have been Umar. How can you overrule what the Prophet said?
Dr. Shabir said it is political difference actually it is not.In Bokhari and Musnad Ahmad and many other sunni authentic books of hadiths or narrations say that the prophet s.w. said that there would be 12 khalifas or khalifs from the sons of Fatima a.s. the daughter of prophet Mohamed s.w.the shias follow the 12 imams while the sunnis count their first 4 khalif and stop because khalif number 5 was Moawia who was behind poisoning imam hassan peace be upon him the grandson of prophet Mohamed s.w.
I'M neither Sunni nor Shia I'm a more Qurani if that make sense. I believe that quran is a complete book and guidance for mankind. Its clear and simple. You don't need Hadith and History to understand the Quran or qualify it. Just read it yourself and have some more peace.
We need more Muslims (Sunni or Shi'adWe need more Muslims (Sunni or Shi'a) like Shabir Ally. I have Shi'a roots, but I consider myself Muslim first. During the time of the Prophet Muhammad, there were no Sunnis our Shias, just Muslims.
The differences are like Shabir Ally says political, more so than interpretive. They have to do with dynasties, etc. Kitab ul Kafi and Bukhari/Muslim are even for the most part identical. These differences should not be so relevant today. They should be like how one Sunni or Shi'a has a different madhab from another. There are so many Sunnis that I love and respect, that I can't let something mideaval like that prevent me from loving someone who has good and solid character.
The question isn’t “did some people believe Ali RA should have been the next caliph”. The question should be “Did Ali RA himself believe he should have been the next caliph”? Why didn’t he just give bai’ah to Abu Bakr in the beginning? I am a Sunni Muslim but none of the Sunni Muslim scholars have given me a satisfactory answer on this? I believe I have been brought up with the wrong narrative about shia Muslims. We have been told that shia Muslims are those who believe Ali RA as the final messenger of Allah. The real reason behind the conflict of shia and Sunni has never been told us. Also, my cousin who is a scholar living in Saudi Arabia has stopped talking to me after we had a conversation about sunni vs shia. He believes that I have astrayed somehow for having these questions and he couldn’t give me a straight answer to my questions except that there’s a hadith which says that prophet SAW said there’d be 73 sects and only one of them will be going to heaven. And that sect is somehow sunni and if I’m not following the Sunni sect I’m going to hell.
The point is who are we to ask questions on the internal matter of sahaba... When علی ra accepted the bayah and after that he accepted the 3 caliph and from hadith it is clear that he respected the companions and the caliph then why put emphasis on an event on which Ali ra himself didn't put any emphasis?? So Shiaism is not Islam the 12 infallible Imams belief of Shiaism is no where mention in the quran... Yet its there main aqeedah in their books most famous in Al kafi that there are 12 infallible imams who knows everything .. Now, everyone knows that even prophets don't know the future unless ALLAH tells them through revelation etc so how can Imams know everything etc.. Then Shia curse the sahaba امیر معاویہ رضی اللہ عنہ Yet imam hasan according to Shia imam حسن رضی اللہ عنہ was infallible imam yet he did peace treaty with ameer muaviya ra... And Shiaism views on mutah marriage and further more etc Shiaism deviant views etc... You should study them if your sunni and confused ..
Islamic message it’s not an internal matter if it divided the whole of ummah. I’m not a Shia and neither do I curse any of the sahabas. I don’t care about the infallible imams either. My question is very simple. Did Ali RA believe he should have been the first caliph or not? If yes, then why was he voted out? And what was the reason he didn’t give bai’ah to Abu Bakr RA. Let’s say that the matter was resolved after he gave bai’ah to Abu Bakr. But then, after the assassination of Usman RA, did not Mu’awiya assassinate so many sahabas and took so many innocent lives when he rebelled against Ali RA? How can you not talk about the assassination of Hassan RA? and Hussain RA? They are the grand sons of prophet SAW! How can you resolve the issues between Sunni and Shia while you guys are scared to speak out the truth? All I’m asking is for Shia and Sunni, to speak out the truth! Because truth matters to Allah!
let me be honest I am atheist (no I don't hate god, I just don't believe he exists) but I have to concede this guy is very well educated and from what I have heard from him so far he seems to put forward rational and logical arguments. I'm gonna listen more...
We don't hate him. look this is simple and I can testify in front of shias. US simple mortals don't have the right to disrespect the first 4 califs of Islam. Whoever says the opposite let him talk. Now we have our hadiths about somethings Abu Bakr (as) has done that were wrong and we consider that he was not the one appointed to lead the muslims after Al Nabi (as). BUT Imam ali (as) accepted it and respected it so we Shia have to do the same. that's it.Respect must remain.
I never seen shabir go extreme in anything we really need bright people like him , i like his academic informed approache to the issues he talks about , God bless Him In the end of the day we all need guidance,May God Shows us The right Path ,Amen
Let the Quran speak? Why don’t you discuss subjects from the Quran only? I want to learn about the Quran only Your show should be called “let Islam speak” i don’t want to know what Islam says I’m only interested in what Allah has to say from Quran.
What If I say Wahabis or Suffis are Sunnis? Who agree on that? Don't mix up everything, yes some Shia's have taken another path but don't judge all Shia's. Dr Shabir Ally is a great man and he certainly deserves one of the best places in heaven for trying to Unite, not Divide and criticize because there are as much critics that can be done from both sides based on all books, hadith and Coran Kareem. I wish a Ramadan Kareem to all my muslim brothers by the way.
The answer of shik Shabir is diplomatic. We have to understand our religion first before saying who is doing right and who is doing wrong. Shiaats sometimes curse close companions to the prophets ( the carrier of the religion) for whom verses are revealed to show their supreme position. They base their "religion" on non authenticated narrations and mis-interpretations of the Quran texts. This so obvious. In order for us to Unite, We have to Unite on the rightful understanding of the religion
This is important...Watch..."OpenLearn: History Unit -- The Enlightenment #1 ".......All this that happened with us in the west is now happening to the Ummah. Thing's will never be the same.

Rather than read the Arabic Version of the Quran, I prefer to read the Quraysh Version. Bukhari: V4B56N709 "Uthman called Zaid, Abdallah, Said, and Abd-Rahman. They wrote the manuscripts of the Quran in the form of a book in several copies. Uthman said to the three Quraishi persons, 'If you differ with Zaid bin Thabit on any point of the Quran, then write it in the language of the Quraysh, as the Quran was revealed in their language.' So they acted accordingly."
NOT TRUE, THIS IS NOT A POLITICAL DIFFERENCE, THEIR RELIGION/FAITH IS TOTALLY DIFFERENT. DR. DOES NOT KNOW THAT SHIA GIVE HIGHER GRADE TO HAZRAT ALI (RA) THAN THE PROPHET. THEY ABUSE UMMAHAT-UL-MO'AMENEEN HOW CAN THEY BE MUSLIM?
Absolute nonsense! They do not abuse the ummahaat ul mo'minee nor do they place Haz. Ali over the Porphet! As far as ummahaat ul mo'minee go, if anything, they are following the Quran, Surat Tahreem. Any good tafseer by our classical scholars (al-Tabari, al-Raazy, al-Zamakhshari, al-Qurtubi, al-Suyuuti etc.) will tell you which two of the ummahaat ul mo'minee are being reprimanded here for disobedience! Surat ut taHreem سُوۡرَةُ التّحْریم بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ يَـٰٓأَيُّہَا ٱلنَّبِىُّ لِمَ تُحَرِّمُ مَآ أَحَلَّ ٱللَّهُ لَكَۖ تَبۡتَغِى مَرۡضَاتَ أَزۡوَٲجِكَۚ وَٱللَّهُ غَفُورٌ۬ رَّحِيمٌ۬ (١) قَدۡ فَرَضَ ٱللَّهُ لَكُمۡ تَحِلَّةَ أَيۡمَـٰنِكُمۡۚ وَٱللَّهُ مَوۡلَٮٰكُمۡۖ وَهُوَ ٱلۡعَلِيمُ ٱلۡحَكِيمُ (٢) وَإِذۡ أَسَرَّ ٱلنَّبِىُّ إِلَىٰ بَعۡضِ أَزۡوَٲجِهِۦ حَدِيثً۬ا فَلَمَّا نَبَّأَتۡ بِهِۦ وَأَظۡهَرَهُ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيۡهِ عَرَّفَ بَعۡضَهُ ۥ وَأَعۡرَضَ عَنۢ بَعۡضٍ۬ۖ فَلَمَّا نَبَّأَهَا بِهِۦ قَالَتۡ مَنۡ أَنۢبَأَكَ هَـٰذَاۖ قَالَ نَبَّأَنِىَ ٱلۡعَلِيمُ ٱلۡخَبِيرُ (٣) إِن تَتُوبَآ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ فَقَدۡ صَغَتۡ قُلُوبُكُمَاۖ وَإِن تَظَـٰهَرَا عَلَيۡهِ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ مَوۡلَٮٰهُ وَجِبۡرِيلُ وَصَـٰلِحُ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَۖ وَٱلۡمَلَـٰٓٮِٕڪَةُ بَعۡدَ ذَٲلِكَ ظَهِيرٌ (٤) عَسَىٰ رَبُّهُ ۥۤ إِن طَلَّقَكُنَّ أَن يُبۡدِلَهُ ۥۤ أَزۡوَٲجًا خَيۡرً۬ا مِّنكُنَّ مُسۡلِمَـٰتٍ۬ مُّؤۡمِنَـٰتٍ۬ قَـٰنِتَـٰتٍ۬ تَـٰٓٮِٕبَـٰتٍ عَـٰبِدَٲتٍ۬ سَـٰٓٮِٕحَـٰتٍ۬ ثَيِّبَـٰتٍ۬ وَأَبۡكَارً۬ا (٥) Surah At-Tahrim In the name of Allah Most Gracious Most Merciful. O Prophet! Why bannest thou that which Allah hath made lawful for thee, seeking to please thy wives? And Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. (1) Allah hath made lawful for you (Muslims) absolution from your oaths (of such a kind), and Allah is your Protector. He is the Knower, the Wise. (2) When the Prophet confided a fact unto one of his wives and when she afterward divulged it and Allah apprised him thereof, he made known (to her) part thereof and passed over part. And when he told it her she said: Who hath told thee? He said: The Knower, the Aware hath told me. (3) If ye twain turn unto Allah repentant, (ye have cause to do so) for your hearts desired (the ban); and if ye aid one another against him (Muhammad) then lo! Allah, even He, is his Protecting Friend, and Gabriel and the righteous among the believers; and furthermore the angels are his helpers. (4) It may happen that his Lord, if he divorce you, will give him in your stead wives better than you, submissive (to Allah), believing, pious, penitent, devout, inclined to fasting, widows and maids. (5) Most people neither read the Quran AND its tafseer nor enough history which is why there is so much confusion about these issues.
Muslims Umma has to make peace between them selves and we have to follow the basics of our religion, try to become better human and make peace with others.
Part 1 Jesus administrative life was only three year, that means he was only in the public arena from the age of 30 to 33. He did not speak like a politician, only a few word were enough, but his actions did the rest, he was sinless, he healed the sick, he gave the blind sight and the culmination to willingly lay down his life as a ransom for the sins of mankind and then rose again on the third day and will come back to judge the living and the dead. His action spoke louder than words.
Part 1 Two can play the same game. Sunan Bayhaqi and Al Halabi According to this hadith, a (gay) man named Zahir, who used to say, “The prophet loves me,” said that one day Muhammad crept unawares behind him and put him in a bear-hug. Zahir, alarmed, yelled, “Get off me!” After turning his head and discovering that it was Muhammad, he stopped struggling and proceeded to “push his back into the prophet’s chest.”
purpose of being Muslim, why are we Muslims, Allah created us who among us are best in deeds, meet Allah, earn success. Objectives defined very clearly in the life of the prophet by the prophet (UIHBP) in his life time of 23 years from first the 1st revelation to the time he passed away. Scope of the message has a start & end with the 23 years life of the prophet. Rest does not matter to Allah. What matters to Allah is good deeds, good intention. Many labels today did not exist in the 23 years.
they are talking about Wahhabis, the ones in action, this is why he says the Wahhabi the wahshi the arhabi (terrorist), it is permissible to kill terrorists. Would you not kill one who has killed many Muslims? Sallam
It is silly to be caught up in these ethnicity based in-fights.Instead, any disputes concerning religion or history should be deferred to the Day of Judgment (if you're believers),&efforts should be made towards peaceful cooperation and mutual support against more hostile and dangerous enemies. Various religious views should be considered schools of thought and again kept as personal issues with neither group flinging public insults towards any school of thought, awaiting resolution at Judgment.
Because there is very important narration in Al kafi: Reported by ja'far bin abi talib that he said "For men Whoever hits himself in the head with a sword 1000 times on the day of muharram will have all his sins of the past removed. And For Women whoever hit herself on her breasts 1000 times will have all her sins from the past removed.For a baby, if the head of the baby is bleeding, this blood will beg to help his parents enter jannah on day of judgement" [صحيح] Suicide for Hussein is halal...!
People are just ignorant, and they do not think that at the end of the day we all are Muslims, we believe in the same prophet, and we believe in the same ALLAH.
What do you mean when they came into existence? Check on wikipedia :Hadith_of_the_Twelve_Successors It is in all hadiths, sunni and shia, even in the bible. Then remember the last public words of our porphet (as). What did he leave us? Coran in one hand and Ahlul bayt in another. The twelvers are Ahlulm Bayt. How many Califs do you count After Abu Bakr (as)? Now for you to decide who you want to refer to...
It's just as what Prophet Mohammed,Peace be upon him, said -what means" Verily, the children of Israel were split into72 sects and my nation will split into 73 sects, all of them are in the Hellfire except one.” They said, “Who are they, O Messenger of Allah?” He said, “Those who follow me and my companions.”
Josephus was a Jewish scholar, born 37 A.D., who wrote rather positively about Christ. "Now there was about this time, Jesus, a wise man, if it be lawful to call him a man, for he was a doer of wonderful works, - a teacher of such men as receive the truth with pleasure. He drew over to him both many of the Jews, and many of the Gentiles. He was [the] Christ; and when Pilate, at the suggestion of the principal men amongst us, had condemned him to
According to this hadith of the ten companions or sahaba that the prophet predicted their entrance to heaven to live in it an eternal life is a Sunni Hadith and it is fake and false hadith and here is the proof ,first,Talha and Zubair who are 2 companions among the ten who fought imam Ali peace be upon him in the battle of soffein and we know prophet Mohamed (s.w.) says if you fight Ali you are fighting me and if you are fighting me you are fighting Allah (s.w.).Also ,if U hate Ali U R HYPOCRITE
Then God said, "Yes, but your wife Sarah will bear you a son, and you will call him Isaac. I will establish my covenant with him as an everlasting covenant for his descendants after him. And as for Ishmael, I have heard you: I will surely bless him; I will make him fruitful and will greatly increase his numbers. He will be the father of twelve rulers, and I will make him into a great nation. Genesis 17:19-20
Not only was it a custom in the Arab society to engage / marry a young girl , it was also common in the Jewish society . The case of Mary the mother of Jesus comes to mind , in non biblical sources , she was between 11-14 years old when she conceived Jesus . Mary had already been " BETROTHED " to Joseph before conceiving Jesus . Joseph was a much older man . There4 Mary was younger than 11-14 years of age when she was "BETROTHED " to Joseph .
The discussion concerning such a topic is very extensive and this answer cannot incorporate all the details. We shall briefly mention, in two stages (e.g. beliefs and laws), those of the Shiite views which are opposed by Sunnis or a group of them: A) Beliefs and Tenets of Shiite Religion: 1. Although Tawhid (oneness of God) is a principle common between the Shiite and Sunnit schools of thought, Shia believes that God’s attributes are the same as His Essence. (See in this regard: The Mu’tazilite Principles of Faith, question 8864 (site: 8811) ; Types and Degrees of Monotheism, question 1913 (site: 3445) ). 2. According to Shia, God cannot be seen in this world nor can He be seen in the Hereafter. See (Shia and Sunni on Seeing God, question 8408 (site: 8477) ; God cannot be seen as explicitly denoted by verse 54 of Chapter al-Baqarah, question 6477 (site:8498) ; Seeing God, question 5621 (site: 7911)) 3. Unlike the Sunnis, Shia holds that it is not permissible on God’s part to punish an obedient and give rewards to a sinner. (In this regard, see: Justice according to Shia and Mu’tazilah No. 5923 (site: 6122) ). 4. Shia does not believe in determinism and compulsion. (In this regard, see: Man and Freedom, question 51 (site:287) ; God’s Foreknowledge and Man’s Free-will, question 2084 site: 2135) ; Man, Predestination and Free-will, question 1896 (site: 2718) ; Determinism and Free-will, question 2035 (site:2085) ; Rejection of Determinists’ Arguments, 528 (site: 576) ; The Concept of al-Amr bayn al-Amrayn, question 58 (site: 294) and also numbers: 1221 (site1217) and 130 (site:1237) and 1550 (site: 1570) and 2035 (site: 2085) ). 5. The most important Shiite belief is the belief in Imamate. Shia holds that Imamate is a part of the fundamentals of faith and the successor of the Prophet must be inerrant and infallible and it is precisely because of infallibility, which is known by none other than God, that the imam (leader) after the Prophet should be appointed by God and that the Islamic governments should lead to Wilayah. 6. Obeying an oppressive and unjust sovereign is not permissible according to Shia. 7. Shia believes that Ahlulbayt in verse 33 of Chapter al-Ahzab refers to Fatima (daughter of the Holy Prophet (pbuh)) and the pure Imams (a.s.). 8. Shia is of the view that the prophets are infallible. They do not commit any sin, whether capital or minor. 9. Bada, Raj’at (return) and intercession are also some of the Shiite beliefs. For further information, see: Bada, Tablet, Book, question 65 (site: 306) ; Raj’at (Return) and Its Features); question 5774 (site: 6014) and 3006 (site: 3578) ; The Return of Prophets, Imams, question 5884 (site: 8995)). 10. Shia does not consider all the companions of the Holy Prophet (pbuh) as just. There were different types of people amongst the companions. Some were just and some were hypocrites. Their fatwa (verdict) are not authoritative and valid for anyone. For further reading vide: Justice of All the Companions, question 5920 (site: 6136)). B) Laws: 1. Taqiyah (dissimulation) is permissible according to Shia. For more details see: Tarawih Prayers and Taqiyah, question 7286 (site: 7804) ; Reasons behind Taqiyah of the Imams (a.s.) question No. 1779 (site: 2132) ; question 3022 (site: 4099) . 2. Mut’ah (Fixed-time marriage) is permissible according to Shiite viewpoint. For further explanation, see: A Study of the Ahadith (Traditions) on Mut’ah, question 3320 (site: 4098) ; Fixed-time Marriage and Peacefulness, No. 2925 (site: 3130) ; Fixed-time marriage in the Quran and Sira of the Infallibles No.6146 (site: 6348). 3. The gate of Ijtihad is open according to Shia. 4. Shia does not accept ta’sib and awl [1] in inheritance. 5. According to Shia, combining between two prayers is permissible. For further explanation, see: The Sira of the Prophet and the Imams in combining between Zuhr and Asr prayers, 9346 (site: 9329). 6. “Hayya ‘ala Khayril ‘Amal” (Hasten to the best acts) is a part of the Adhan. 7. It is permissible to visit the Infallible Imams’ graves (we believe that not only visiting graves is not shirk (idolatrous) but it is very much a monotheistic act and there is a lot of reward in it.). For further explanation, you can refer to the following answers on our website: “The Differences and Commonalties between Shia and Sunni Schools of Thought on Mahism, question 1425 (site: 1708) ; Particulars and Features of Shia, question 4942 (site: 9686); and also books written in this regard including: Al-Jawame’ wal-Fawareq bayn al-Sunnah wa al-Shia by Muhammad Jawad Mughniyah; Ma’a al-Shia al-Imamiyah fi Aqaedehim, by Ayatollah Ja’far Subhani, Islamic Beliefs in the Light of the School of Ahlalbayt by Ayatollah Ja’far Subhani. [1] - The principle of 'awl (proportionate reduction) is applied by Sunni jurists when the estate of the deceased is 'oversubscribed' by Quranic heirs. Ta'sib is applied by Sunni jurisprudence to give priority to male agnates as heirs, and this results in many mathematical complexities in their system of inheritance. The only really significant difference between the Shi'ah and Sunni schools of jurisprudence in the laws of inheritance concerns the principles of "'awl" and "ta'sib". The Imamiyah jurisprudents have proved by means of ahadith from the Ahlu 'l-bayt (a.s.) that there is no 'awl or ta'sib in the matter of inheritance. This was also the opinion held by the great companions of the Holy Prophet. The well-known statement of Ibn 'Abbas in which he speaks against 'awl and ta'sib can be taken as authoritative. There are also other grounds of proof for negating these two principles.
Narrated Aisha: Once the Prophet was bewitched so that he began to imagine that he had done a thing which in fact he had not done. Sahih Bukhari, Volume 4, Book 53, Number 400 Sahih Bukhari, Volume 4, Book 54, Number 490 Sahih Bukhari, Volume 7, Book 71, Number 660-661 Sahih Bukhari, Volume 7, Book 71, Number 658 Sahih Bukhari, Volume 8, Book 75, Number 400 Sahih Muslim, Book 26, Number 5428-5429 you are not, [O Muhammad], by the favor of your Lord, a madman. Quran 68:1-2
Exactly. Allah protected Muhammad pbuh all his life, there is no way he would've let Abu Bakr (ra), Umar (ra) and Uthman (ra) near him if they were evil and plotting to steal the Caliphate. Astagfirullah. These people need to remember Ali (ra) named three of his sons after the first three caliphas.
I'm a Shia and i really appreciate Dr. Ally's fair treatment of the subject. I'm so tired of hearing uneducated people claim that Shias were founded by Abdullah ibn Saba' and all this other nonsense. He is very objective in his response and very kind in extending his hand towards Shias to work towards the common good. May Allah SWT reward him.
Brother we like to come together. But there are some people who consider themselves Shia curse the companions and curse our mother Aisha .
Not only that they call oh Ali instead of Allah.
How do plan to fix them?
@@talalal-fahmi5746 I don't plan on fixing them, I plan on fixing you. Learn to tolerate religious differences and differences of opinion. In the West, we have Muslims living side by side with atheists, jews and christians, yet the Shia who fulfill all of the pillars of Islam, have the same Qiblah etc, are so radically different that you can't work with them? Also, tawassul is not a sunni-shia issue, it's a salafi vs everyone else issue.
@@AbeAlJ you know they are wrong . So it's OK to curse the companions of the prophet ? It's OK to curse the wives of the prophet? Also there's a difference between tawasul and what we see some Shias do . And if I ask some Shias what are the five pillars of Islam they won't say it like other Muslims
They would say al wilayah not Haj . . All the Muslims don't have this exempt Shias.
You hate salafies why ? Give me a good reason. They follow the Quran and the othintec hadeth.
@@talalal-fahmi5746 "And if I ask some Shias what are the five pillars of Islam they won't say it like other Muslims "
That is simply a difference in name or classification. Shias say the 5 usool of Islam are tawheed, adalah, nubuwwah, imamah and qiyamah. These are aqaa'id or beliefs. Shias say the furoo' are: salaat, sawm, hajj, zakaat, khums, jihad, amr bil maroof, nahi an al-munkar, tawalaa, tabaraa. Every Muslim agrees on the wujoob of these acts. As for the Shahadatayn, even if it is not listed here, shias also believe that is what enters one into Islam and shias say it in every salat.
I don't hate all salafis, but I find they tend to be the most aggressive, vitriolic, and unjust group towards their opponents and also the dumbest. They do not follow the sunnah because the sunnah is "I was sent to perfect moral character."
@@AbeAlJ all the five pillars are in the Quran even Jihad and khumus except Imamah it's not there . Also they curse the wives of the prophet and they curse the companions. There's also many biddah they do .
You don't talk about these wrong doings and you just say that salafis are herd on them ?
The salafis always speak with evidence from the Quran and the authentic hadeth. If you really want to know who's ignorant then they are the ones who curse the companions and the wives of the prophet and the one who innovate in Islam like some Shias . Not all Shias are like that but most of who are known.
Mashallah! I'm a shia and I'm very impressed at the fairness, coherence, and the respect presented in this video. Alhamdulillah for educated and fair people like this who exist on both sides.
“You Ali are to me in position that Harun was to Musa, except that there is no prophet after me"
"Of whomsoever I am the Master (Maula) Ali is his master (Maula) too.”

Master word is only for Allah (in the first Sarah of Quran)
He said this thing to omar bin alkhattab , not Ali, stop changing the prophet's hadiths
You start reading, ok
Prophet did say that about Ali, not Omar.

This is the Shia position as tuz345 mentioned. Hazrat Ali being the first Imam. It must be added there has always been an Imam e Mubin - a living or manifest Imam. "We Allah) has vested/kept everything in the Manifest Imam" Qur'an sura Ya Sin 36:12.
Peace and Allah's blessings to all sisters and brothers in Islam and the People of the Book.
Salam. I am Shia and I have had the honor of being a colleague of a good number of Sunni brothers. I have not had any single problem with them. I even feel closer to a few of them more than I do to my Shia friends. Shia and Sunni are very similar in fundamental principles. I wonder why some people try to accentuate the differences rather than the commonalities. Even the siblings born to the same parents think differently. Why should we expect everyone to think alike?
Can I ask u why u believe in concept of the 12 divinely appointed infallible Imams?
No concept of such leadership exists on the Quran www.shia.bs
How can Shia believe in an article of faith nowhere in the quran
Ali Ansari it is in Hadith and the prophet spoke of them coming. Same can be said for sahaba?

Now I love Shabir Ally; he is my favorite scholar. However I was bit disappointed by this talk of his. He mainly focused on the "political" divide between Sunni and Shi'a and he failed to go in depth of the religious divide/differences such the unforgivable amount of shirk and and negative bid'ah which has arisen from the Shi'a side.
i wish there were more sheikhs like him among sunnis and shias, then wahabis and salafi wouldn't be able to hurt islam as much
wali bak stole the words from my mouth bro
I enjoy listening to Dr. Ally. He speaks very intelligently & I learn a lot from him.
Thanks!
I'll visit your website
I am a Sunni Muslim and the people insulting Shia's need to go learn more about our religion.
This is a question for Dr. Shabir Ally. if you read Quran itself and what Allah ordered then we should be MUSLIMS ONLY. Any sectarian in Islam is prohibited and will have (Great Punishment) as Allah said Himself. So WHY you don't tell the people the TRUTH which Allah ordered you to tell the people? These are Allah's orders and I'm waiting for your answer. Thank you:
Quran 6:159 Indeed, those who have divided their religion and become sects - you, [O Muhammad], are not [associated] with them in anything.
Quran 30:31-32 do not be of those who associate others with Allah. Of those who have divided their religion and become sects, every faction rejoicing in what it has.
Quran 3:105 And do not be like the ones who became divided and differed after the clear proofs had come to them. And those will have a great punishment.
Quran 3:19 Indeed, the religion in the sight of Allah is Islam. And those who were given the Scripture did not differ except after knowledge had come to them - out of jealous animosity between themselves. And whoever disbelieves in the verses of Allah , then indeed, Allah is swift in [taking] account.

With all respect ,
Shia today has nothing to do with Islam. They committee shirk in their practice, and most of their practice have no thing to do with Islam. Yes at the beginning it was political matter, but eventually has become a different religion has no thing to with Islam. What Shia almost believe about Ali is the same Christians belief about Jesus. Moreover, they have no traditions or sayings for prophet Muhammad, and some of their scholar do not believe in Quran as authentic book because they think Quran has been corrupted by prophet's companions! Therfore, Shia today has nothing to do with Islam.
Hassan Ch Tell Just one Hadith with authentic Chains from your tradition?
tornado 1 sunnis believe of muhammad like christians to. They make the hadiths an obligation. If somebody dont follow the hadiths, he is not a muslim for them. So they make muhammad a divine man. Sunnis are no better then shia, friend, so judge yourself before judging others.
Itd only make sense for the most pure and rightous muslim to lead the muslim world since in quran 33:33 mentions only ahlul bait and the prophet are pure muslims and not prone to sins and ahlul bait were purified by Allah himself so obviously theyd have had Ali as the first caliph how hard is that to understand logically speaking itd make more sense for him to be the successor of the prophet pbuh when even your first three caliphs went to Ali for guidance
You clearly a hiding in the dark and didn't study your own(sunnism) book, cuz if you would Allah might guide you my brother , please research more
tornado 1 I'm Shia myself and it's so funny how you know nothing about Shia and just making up stuff about them at your own will 😂
Mashallah tabarkallalah I’m shia and this guy has said it perfectly Mashallah. May Allah bless him and our whole ummah❤️
At the end of the day we are all Muslims. Allah will be the judge in our differences .
I almost cried after listening to this speech. Finally, someone who understands and agrees with me and others who see that each side has partial truths. I myself was born a Shia, yet after moving to North America I became so confused with this whole Shia/Sunni debate. I have lived in torment, and I DO MEAN TORMENT, for almost 4 years now because I myself don't have the resources to fully understand and make a decision about this. All I want to do is perform good deeds, and make Allah Happy.
May god unite all people and help us be more open minded and compassionate towards others. May he guide us from angered conversations
Shabir Ally is a really inspirational man!
Jazakallah khair brother, I personally dont refer to myself as sunni or shia, i think labeling ourselves as anything other than muslims kinda changes the message of the quran, but like you i want peace between our differences, people just need to stop preaching hate
Brother if read the some Shias books you will find that it goes against what Islam is . But I really do hope that our brothers from the Shias side open their eyes and stand for the truth
Mashaa'Allah, brother Shabir Ally is an aluable asset to our Muslim community. Allah has granted him wisdom and kubul (Aura of benevolence and charisma). I appreciate his contributions...
i am a christian but enjoy listening to shabir ally
EXCELLENT! good final message too!
Salam. By Islamic standard, when someone proclaims that Allah is one, and the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) is his Last Messenger and believes in the hereafter, that person is a Muslim. I am surprised to see a so-called "Muslim" accuses Shias of being evil-worshipers. Even if there be some erroneous in a sect, we are not allowed to ex-communicate the followers of that sect as followers of evil. May Allah (SWT) guide all of us to the right path.
that was just what i was about to say :D mashallah inshallah we can all think like this respectful sheikh soon
Write In Sha Allah all three separately, because according to some scholars if written together it could mean something which could be associated with shirk...
The messenger of Allah (saww) said: "I am leaving for you two precious and weighty Symbols that if you adhere to both of them you shall not go astray after me. They are, the Book of Allah, and my progeny, that is my Ahlul-Bayt. The Merciful has informed me that These two shall not separate from each other till they come to me by the Pool (of Paradise)."
Sahih al-Tirmidhi, Volume 5, Page 662-663

...and much more
There has already been a discussion between the sunnis and shias in a book called 'peshawar nights' which was banned from being published in certain muslim countries because of the victory of the shias in the debate which was a debate regarding everything
Victory over who ? Many debates between Shias and suni scholars ended with sunis being right .
Prophet muhammad said Whom ever im mola Ali is his mola after me
So simple it is well known hadees in sunni n shias
Why not propher said abubakar umar usman ?
In Arabic linguistics mola also mean servant there are 20 meaning of mola ok
@@aadeshsingh1816 _ And it is interesting that when Abu Bakr uses this it means "king, successor and master" and not friend!
- But when it is used about Ali it just simply means "friend"!
Allahu akbar! Thank you brother Ally Shabir for clear explanation. May Allah bless you bro!!
As a shia myself i have long been searching the truth, I guess I will only get to know the truth on the day of judgement. May Allah forgive us and guide us before that day comes.
Don't give up! Look into what the Shia books says, they are doing shirk, so please only worship Allah and don't give his attributes to others, please. A single second in jahannam is terrible enough
We are living in a difficult times.He can't dig the well.He just tried to give a diplomatic answer and tried to talk about Shia-Sunni Unity.
I am not a shia, I am a muslim, and this is what you should be saying too brother, if someone asks what are you, should say you are a muslim brother as it says in surah ali imran chapter 3 verse 103- And hold firmly to the rope of Allah all together and do not become divided
Quran 2:154 "Never say about those who are killed in the way of Allah "dead"; Nay they are ALIVE but you cannot feel it"
So never says the DEATH of the Prophet.
As for Ali in the Quran see 5:55-56 and join the Party of Allah if you are truthful.

Six months passed and imam Ali a.s. did not give any Baiah or allegiance to Abo Bakr,here Abo Bakr sent Omar and his soldiers to the house of Fatima a.s(Daughter of Mohamed s.w.) and imam Ali a.s.,Omar pushed the door of the house while Fatima was behind the door ,and he broke her ribs and she lost the baby in her belly ,Ali a.s. did not fight back because he did not want to make a division in the muslim nations and take it through wars.Fatima died angry 2 months after&was burried secretlyWHERE?
This is a great video, I am part of a Shi'a family and technically follow the Shi'a doctrine, but I don't claim to be part of any sect. Although I do hold the view that Imam Ali was the Prophet's rightful successor, I do so whilst never showing disrespect towards the mothers of believers, the first 3 Caliphs and my Sunni brethren.
Thank you .
You are sooo wrong. Not shia not sunni, not Ali, not Omar, Not Bughari..... this is SHIRK..Islaam is Allaah, The Almighty.
Khadija Benassou yes true! Ich bin neue in Österreich and möchte Deutsch lernen :D
Shias did not exist during the time of prophet Muhammad PBUH so Shias are not considered as Muslims....
ALLAHU AKBAR if we consider what shia means it means follower all muslims are followers of the prophet and worship Allah. Did you just say muslims are not muslims?
The Quran offers us a more detailed understanding of Where (and Who) Allah is.

"Certainly your Lord is Allah, Who created the heavens and the earth in six yaum (days or periods of time), and then He Istawa (rose above) the Throne. He brings the night as a cover over the day rapidly, and the sun, the moon, the stars subject to His Command. Surely, His is the Creation and the Commandment. Blessed be Allah, the Lord of the universe!"
[Noble Quran 7:54]

"Indeed, your Lord is Allah, Who created the heavens and the earth in six yaum (days or periods of time), and then He Istawa (rose above), the Throne, disposing the affair of everything. No intercessor (can plead with Him) except by His Permission. This is Allah, your Lord, so worship Him. Won't you then remember?"
[Noble Quran 10:3]

"It is Allah who erected the heavens without pillars that you [can] see; then He Istawa (rose above) the Throne and made subject the sun and the moon, each running [its course] for a specified term. He arranges [each] matter; He details the signs that you may, of the meeting with your Lord, be certain."
[Noble Quran 13:2]

Who created the heavens and the earth in six yaum (days or periods of time), and then He Istawa (rose above) the Throne. The Most Beneficent! Ask Him, as He is Al-Khabir (The All-Knower of everything).
[Noble Quran 25:59]

Who created the heavens and the earth in six yaum (days or periods of time), and then He Istawa (rose above) the Throne. You (mankind) have none, besides Him, as a Wali (protector or helper etc.) or an intercessor. Won't you then remember (accepting admonishment)?
[Noble Quran 32:4]

And indeed We (Allah uses the word "We" in the royal sense like the king who says, "We decree the following...", this is not in the plural) created the heavens and the earth and everything in between in six days and fatigue never touched Us (again, this is the royal "Us" not plural).
[Noble Quran 50:38]

He is the One Who created the heavens and the earth in six yaum (days or periods of time), and then He Istawa (rose above) the Throne. He knows what goes into the earth and what comes forth from it, what descends from the heaven and what ascends up to it. And He is with you (by His Knowledge) where so ever you may be. And Allah is the All-Seer of what you do.
[Noble Quran 57:4]
We observe from these statements a very logical approach to understanding the nature of God without comparing Him to creation or putting Him in His creation.
being a christian.. i have always respected shabbir ally.. why cant muslims think like him.
I am a sunni.I embraced Islam few years back.Just one advice.Brother Shabbir is not trying to inflame Shia-Sunni divide.He just tried to strenghten Shia-Sunni Unity.THere are differences but better talh about similarities.
May Allah reward Brother Shabir Ally abundantly for his sincere, just and open-minded expositions of Islamic issues, such as this one and those concerning Prophet Isa (a.s.) and the claims of Christianity. I pray that he be granted jannah for his work to humanity.
Exactly
Thats the beauty of the Noble Quran. It distinguishes between those who believed and those disbelieved and trangressed among the children of Isreal.
Phenomenal
There are also massive theological differences between us.
Number one twlevers do not believe in predestination.
Within their books they grant almost god like qualities to their imams.
They use people who have passed away dead people ie the great imams as a intercessor between them and god and ask them to speak to god on their behalf.
I was going to be shia I've seen it myself.
All I could hear in my head as I saw this was you alone we worship you alone we ask for help.
I've never looked at the shia religion since
brother youtube 'how Islam was corrupted' it exposes the 'sunni' religion which claims Allah (SWT) has a body with fingers and shins as said in their 'sahih' Muslim and Bukhari. To answer your question, the main difference between 'sunni' and Shia is that we curse the killers of Fatima al-Zahra (as) while they praise them, what Umar and Abu Bakr (la) did to Fatima al-Zahra (as) is in their own books.
Sallam
IDK if this relates to the subject at hand. There is a gesture I have seen fellow Muslims do at the end of their prayers. Apparently they blow on their hands and pass both hands over the head and down their beards. I have not found this gesture referenced or mentioned anywhere. Does anyone know anything about this? Is it a gesture unique to Sunni or Shia?
achi instead of judging people by their appearance judge him by what he is doing and saying. He did not speak ill of Shias,he did not attack them
Why don´t you look what this GUY is doing for ISlam.He is an exellent debater and is doing live debates with Christians jews atheists.
He is very succesful in DAwa Calling people to Islam.And defending the honor of Islam and the prophet!
He is even a respected person among shia scholars because they see what he is doing for Islam
BE respectfull
Back to Joseph 90 years old marrying Mary 12-14 years old
.
Catholic Encyclopaedia says :
,
" When 40 years of age , Joseph married a woman called Melcha or Escha by some , Salome by others ; they lived 49 years together & had 6 children , 2 daughters & 4 sons . A year after his wife's death , as the priests announced through Judea that they wished to find in the tribe of Juda a respectable man to espouse Mary .
as a shia, i can say that although he is a little bias when he talks about shias and their beliefs but ahlamdulilah he is a little open minded and accepting within reason... mashallah.. unity for al muslims inshallah! jazkumullah khairan for the upload
Your question can be answer by another. What was Ali behavior when the Sahabahs took from him the right to lead the muslims?? He simply accepted it as long as it was for the good of a United Islam and its extension and Good Shias will do the same and respect the Sahabahs. Any one telling you something else doesn't understand shiism. And just like we have "bad" shias, there are bad "sunnis". Why don't you get it? Now question: What do you celebrate on the 10th of Muharam?
Hussein (ra) was living in Makka,he was invited to be imam by shias in Kufa,this is where he was betrayed by them and killed.
Out of 18000 who made oath of allegiance with him fled & left him with 71 men from Makka...until today they regret what they have done to him.
Had they only displayed that same spirit of compassion for Al-Husain when he was so much in need of it ,the history of Islâm might have taken a different course...They did the crime of deserting Al-Husain (ra).
My Allah ... Everything has to be so complicated for the people !!! I don't care about political dispute, I just wan't to earn my place in Haven... I think that following holy Quran, doing good deeds, and fearing Allah is a way to do... And who was right and who was wrong ... Well ... Allah will inform us all for sure!!! And Allah knows the best!!
Sunnis say that when Angel jibreel came to Mohamed s.w. for the first time,Mohamed s.w. was illiterate while Shias say he was literate .Sunnis say he was scared, Shias say he was not .Sunnis say he was trying to commit suicide ,Shias say he was not because was expecting Angel Jibreel appearance in any day.Quran says Ali is waliu Allah,Ayat or verse Alwilaia,"innama waliakum Allah warasoulah waallathina Amano Allathin yakimon alSalat wayaatoon al Zakat wahum Rakioon"Revealed in Ali givingHis ring
Quran " Alyawm Akmalto Alaikum Niimati wa radito lakum al islam deenan".And today i completed my bounty upon you, and i am satisfied that i chose islam as your religion".By appointing imam Ali a.s. Successor islam was completed and Allah s.w. would protect you Oh Mohamed s.w.(yasimoka min al Naass)means protect you from people.
John: 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God.3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made."29The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world."
Bro, there are AUTHENTIC narrations that the Prophet (saw) instructed by Allah gave the 10 Asharah Mubasharah glad tidings of paradise. Sayyidina Ali (ra) was included. This is like a fundamental aspect of our Deen. Umar (ra) had such a status in the Prophet's sight that he claimed that had there been a Prophet after him it'd have been Umar. How can you overrule what the Prophet said?
In Gods sight he is the most handsome man..you know why..Because he speaks the truth
Dr. Shabir said it is political difference actually it is not.In Bokhari and Musnad Ahmad and many other sunni authentic books of hadiths or narrations say that the prophet s.w. said that there would be 12 khalifas or khalifs from the sons of Fatima a.s. the daughter of prophet Mohamed s.w.the shias follow the 12 imams while the sunnis count their first 4 khalif and stop because khalif number 5 was Moawia who was behind poisoning imam hassan peace be upon him the grandson of prophet Mohamed s.w.
Thank You! 🌺
I'M neither Sunni nor Shia I'm a more Qurani if that make sense. I believe that quran is a complete book and guidance for mankind. Its clear and simple. You don't need Hadith and History to understand the Quran or qualify it. Just read it yourself and have some more peace.
You need to take the Hadiths into consideration because they where backed up and where the closet to him
So technically you're a sunni
We need more Muslims (Sunni or Shi'adWe need more Muslims (Sunni or Shi'a) like Shabir Ally. I have Shi'a roots, but I consider myself Muslim first. During the time of the Prophet Muhammad, there were no Sunnis our Shias, just Muslims.
The differences are like Shabir Ally says political, more so than interpretive. They have to do with dynasties, etc. Kitab ul Kafi and Bukhari/Muslim are even for the most part identical. These differences should not be so relevant today. They should be like how one Sunni or Shi'a has a different madhab from another. There are so many Sunnis that I love and respect, that I can't let something mideaval like that prevent me from loving someone who has good and solid character.
Shia Sunni Unity Inshallah
The question isn’t “did some people believe Ali RA should have been the next caliph”. The question should be “Did Ali RA himself believe he should have been the next caliph”? Why didn’t he just give bai’ah to Abu Bakr in the beginning? I am a Sunni Muslim but none of the Sunni Muslim scholars have given me a satisfactory answer on this? I believe I have been brought up with the wrong narrative about shia Muslims. We have been told that shia Muslims are those who believe Ali RA as the final messenger of Allah. The real reason behind the conflict of shia and Sunni has never been told us.
Also, my cousin who is a scholar living in Saudi Arabia has stopped talking to me after we had a conversation about sunni vs shia. He believes that I have astrayed somehow for having these questions and he couldn’t give me a straight answer to my questions except that there’s a hadith which says that prophet SAW said there’d be 73 sects and only one of them will be going to heaven. And that sect is somehow sunni and if I’m not following the Sunni sect I’m going to hell.
The point is who are we to ask questions on the internal matter of sahaba...
When علی ra accepted the bayah and after that he accepted the 3 caliph and from hadith it is clear that he respected the companions and the caliph then why put emphasis on an event on which Ali ra himself didn't put any emphasis??
So Shiaism is not Islam the 12 infallible Imams belief of Shiaism is no where mention in the quran... Yet its there main aqeedah in their books most famous in Al kafi that there are 12 infallible imams who knows everything
.. Now, everyone knows that even prophets don't know the future unless ALLAH tells them through revelation etc so how can Imams know everything etc..
Then Shia curse the sahaba امیر معاویہ رضی اللہ عنہ
Yet imam hasan according to Shia imam حسن رضی اللہ عنہ was infallible imam yet he did peace treaty with ameer muaviya ra...
And Shiaism views on mutah marriage and further more etc Shiaism deviant views etc...
You should study them if your sunni and confused ..
Islamic message it’s not an internal matter if it divided the whole of ummah.
I’m not a Shia and neither do I curse any of the sahabas. I don’t care about the infallible imams either.
My question is very simple. Did Ali RA believe he should have been the first caliph or not? If yes, then why was he voted out? And what was the reason he didn’t give bai’ah to Abu Bakr RA.
Let’s say that the matter was resolved after he gave bai’ah to Abu Bakr. But then, after the assassination of Usman RA, did not Mu’awiya assassinate so many sahabas and took so many innocent lives when he rebelled against Ali RA? How can you not talk about the assassination of Hassan RA? and Hussain RA? They are the grand sons of prophet SAW! How can you resolve the issues between Sunni and Shia while you guys are scared to speak out the truth? All I’m asking is for Shia and Sunni, to speak out the truth! Because truth matters to Allah!
MashaAllah, BaarakAllahu feekum for sharing.
let me be honest I am atheist (no I don't hate god, I just don't believe he exists) but I have to concede this guy is very well educated and from what I have heard from him so far he seems to put forward rational and logical arguments. I'm gonna listen more...
We don't hate him. look this is simple and I can testify in front of shias. US simple mortals don't have the right to disrespect the first 4 califs of Islam. Whoever says the opposite let him talk. Now we have our hadiths about somethings Abu Bakr (as) has done that were wrong and we consider that he was not the one appointed to lead the muslims after Al Nabi (as). BUT Imam ali (as) accepted it and respected it so we Shia have to do the same. that's it.Respect must remain.
I never seen shabir go extreme in anything we really need bright people like him , i like his academic informed approache to the issues he talks about , God bless Him
In the end of the day we all need guidance,May God Shows us The right Path ,Amen
Let the Quran speak? Why don’t you discuss subjects from the Quran only? I want to learn about the Quran only Your show should be called “let Islam speak” i don’t want to know what Islam says I’m only interested in what Allah has to say from Quran.
What If I say Wahabis or Suffis are Sunnis? Who agree on that? Don't mix up everything, yes some Shia's have taken another path but don't judge all Shia's. Dr Shabir Ally is a great man and he certainly deserves one of the best places in heaven for trying to Unite, not Divide and criticize because there are as much critics that can be done from both sides based on all books, hadith and Coran Kareem. I wish a Ramadan Kareem to all my muslim brothers by the way.
both shia and sunni do not existe in QURAN
prophet was not shia nor suni
these are the man made stupid things
The answer of shik Shabir is diplomatic.
We have to understand our religion first before saying who is doing right and who is doing wrong. Shiaats sometimes curse close companions to the prophets ( the carrier of the religion) for whom verses are revealed to show their supreme position. They base their "religion" on non authenticated narrations and mis-interpretations of the Quran texts. This so obvious.
In order for us to Unite, We have to Unite on the rightful understanding of the religion
This is important...Watch..."OpenLearn: History Unit -- The Enlightenment #1 ".......All this that happened with us in the west is now happening to the Ummah. Thing's will never be the same.

Show me the name of one man in history ever excelled or equalled Muhammed in any of the different aspects of life I mentioned .
,
Start with your own FATHER !
The OT 4 instance prohibits a son from marrying his own mother , sister , or father's former wife . The OT also orders those who commit adultery to be burnt in fire , and those who decide to desert their religion and follow another religion must get stones to death ( Deuteronomy 13:6-9 & 17:3-5) . Also the OT orders Gays and Lesbians to be burnt in fire .
.., then 12 -14 years of age ,Joseph , who was at the time 90 years old , went up to Jerusalem among the candidates ; a miracle manifested the choice , God had made of Joseph , and two years later the annunciation took place .
Rather than read the Arabic Version of the Quran, I prefer to read the Quraysh Version. Bukhari: V4B56N709 "Uthman called Zaid, Abdallah, Said, and Abd-Rahman. They wrote the manuscripts of the Quran in the form of a book in several copies. Uthman said to the three Quraishi persons, 'If you differ with Zaid bin Thabit on any point of the Quran, then write it in the language of the Quraysh, as the Quran was revealed in their language.' So they acted accordingly."
NOT TRUE, THIS IS NOT A POLITICAL DIFFERENCE, THEIR RELIGION/FAITH IS TOTALLY DIFFERENT. DR. DOES NOT KNOW THAT SHIA GIVE HIGHER GRADE TO HAZRAT ALI (RA) THAN THE PROPHET. THEY ABUSE UMMAHAT-UL-MO'AMENEEN HOW CAN THEY BE MUSLIM?
Absolute nonsense! They do not abuse the ummahaat ul mo'minee nor do they place Haz. Ali over the Porphet! As far as ummahaat ul mo'minee go, if anything, they are following the Quran, Surat Tahreem. Any good tafseer by our classical scholars (al-Tabari, al-Raazy, al-Zamakhshari, al-Qurtubi, al-Suyuuti etc.) will tell you which two of the ummahaat ul mo'minee are being reprimanded here for disobedience!
Surat ut taHreem

Surah At-Tahrim
In the name of Allah Most Gracious Most Merciful.
O Prophet! Why bannest thou that which Allah hath made lawful for thee, seeking to please thy wives? And Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. (1) Allah hath made lawful for you (Muslims) absolution from your oaths (of such a kind), and Allah is your Protector. He is the Knower, the Wise. (2) When the Prophet confided a fact unto one of his wives and when she afterward divulged it and Allah apprised him thereof, he made known (to her) part thereof and passed over part. And when he told it her she said: Who hath told thee? He said: The Knower, the Aware hath told me. (3) If ye twain turn unto Allah repentant, (ye have cause to do so) for your hearts desired (the ban); and if ye aid one another against him (Muhammad) then lo! Allah, even He, is his Protecting Friend, and Gabriel and the righteous among the believers; and furthermore the angels are his helpers. (4) It may happen that his Lord, if he divorce you, will give him in your stead wives better than you, submissive (to Allah), believing, pious, penitent, devout, inclined to fasting, widows and maids. (5)
Most people neither read the Quran AND its tafseer nor enough history which is why there is so much confusion about these issues.
Sunni and Shias should work on Commonlaities; so that enemies of Umma do not take Advantages of the Minor Differances.
+Shiat Aly Muhammad do you cursr the wife of the Prophet Mohammad pbuh? curse be on those who curse the THE WIFE OF OUR BELOVED PROPHET.
Muslims Umma has to make peace between them selves and we have to follow the basics of our religion, try to become better human and make peace with others.
Muslims are one Ummah of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh).
Part 1
Jesus administrative life was only three year, that means he was only in the public arena from the age of 30 to 33. He did not speak like a politician, only a few word were enough, but his actions did the rest, he was sinless, he healed the sick, he gave the blind sight and the culmination to willingly lay down his life as a ransom for the sins of mankind and then rose again on the third day and will come back to judge the living and the dead. His action spoke louder than words.
Part 1
Two can play the same game.
Sunan Bayhaqi and Al Halabi
According to this hadith, a (gay) man named Zahir, who used to say, “The prophet loves me,” said that one day Muhammad crept unawares behind him and put him in a bear-hug. Zahir, alarmed, yelled, “Get off me!” After turning his head and discovering that it was Muhammad, he stopped struggling and proceeded to “push his back into the prophet’s chest.”
purpose of being Muslim, why are we Muslims, Allah created us who among us are best in deeds, meet Allah, earn success.
Objectives defined very clearly in the life of the prophet by the prophet (UIHBP) in his life time of 23 years from first the 1st revelation to the time he passed away.
Scope of the message has a start & end with the 23 years life of the prophet.
Rest does not matter to Allah. What matters to Allah is good deeds, good intention. Many labels today did not exist in the 23 years.
I say sometimes "allahume sali ala muhammad". As far as i know that means that i send greetings to muhammad. Does that mean i cant do that anymore?
Mashallah dr shabir, truly a wise reply. UNITE for the sake of islam.
they are talking about Wahhabis, the ones in action, this is why he says the Wahhabi the wahshi the arhabi (terrorist), it is permissible to kill terrorists. Would you not kill one who has killed many Muslims?
Sallam
It is silly to be caught up in these ethnicity based in-fights.Instead, any disputes concerning religion or history should be deferred to the Day of Judgment (if you're believers),&efforts should be made towards peaceful cooperation and mutual support against more hostile and dangerous enemies. Various religious views should be considered schools of thought and again kept as personal issues with neither group flinging public insults towards any school of thought, awaiting resolution at Judgment.
Because there is very important narration in Al kafi:
Reported by ja'far bin abi talib that he said "For men Whoever hits himself in the head with a sword 1000 times on the day of muharram will have all his sins of the past removed. And For Women whoever hit herself on her breasts 1000 times will have all her sins from the past removed.For a baby, if the head of the baby is bleeding, this blood will beg to help his parents enter jannah on day of judgement" [صحيح]
Suicide for Hussein is halal...!
People are just ignorant, and they do not think that at the end of the day we all are Muslims, we believe in the same prophet, and we believe in the same ALLAH.
What do you mean when they came into existence? Check on wikipedia :Hadith_of_the_Twelve_Successors
It is in all hadiths, sunni and shia, even in the bible. Then remember the last public words of our porphet (as). What did he leave us? Coran in one hand and Ahlul bayt in another. The twelvers are Ahlulm Bayt. How many Califs do you count After Abu Bakr (as)? Now for you to decide who you want to refer to...
It's just as what Prophet Mohammed,Peace be upon him, said -what means" Verily, the children of Israel were split into72 sects and my nation will split into 73 sects, all of them are in the Hellfire except one.” They said, “Who are they, O Messenger of Allah?” He said, “Those who follow me and my companions.”
Josephus was a Jewish scholar, born 37 A.D., who wrote rather positively about Christ.
"Now there was about this time, Jesus, a wise man, if it be lawful to call him a man, for he was a doer of wonderful works, - a teacher of such men as receive the truth with pleasure. He drew over to him both many of the Jews, and many of the Gentiles. He was [the] Christ; and when Pilate, at the suggestion of the principal men amongst us, had condemned him to
According to this hadith of the ten companions or sahaba that the prophet predicted their entrance to heaven to live in it an eternal life is a Sunni Hadith and it is fake and false hadith and here is the proof ,first,Talha and Zubair who are 2 companions among the ten who fought imam Ali peace be upon him in the battle of soffein and we know prophet Mohamed (s.w.) says if you fight Ali you are fighting me and if you are fighting me you are fighting Allah (s.w.).Also ,if U hate Ali U R HYPOCRITE
Then God said, "Yes, but your wife Sarah will bear you a son, and you will call him Isaac. I will establish my covenant with him as an everlasting covenant for his descendants after him. And as for Ishmael, I have heard you: I will surely bless him; I will make him fruitful and will greatly increase his numbers. He will be the father of twelve rulers, and I will make him into a great nation.
Genesis 17:19-20
about hitting yourself with sords that sounds like suicide, and suicide is haram
Ali (Radhi Allahu Anhum) was NOT a Shia. Do Shias think that he was a Shia ?
Not only was it a custom in the Arab society to engage / marry a young girl , it was also common in the Jewish society . The case of Mary the mother of Jesus comes to mind , in non biblical sources , she was between 11-14 years old when she conceived Jesus . Mary had already been " BETROTHED " to Joseph before conceiving Jesus . Joseph was a much older man . There4 Mary was younger than 11-14 years of age when she was "BETROTHED " to Joseph .
The discussion concerning such a topic is very extensive and this answer cannot incorporate all the details. We shall briefly mention, in two stages (e.g. beliefs and laws), those of the Shiite views which are opposed by Sunnis or a group of them:
A) Beliefs and Tenets of Shiite Religion:
1. Although Tawhid (oneness of God) is a principle common between the Shiite and Sunnit schools of thought, Shia believes that God’s attributes are the same as His Essence. (See in this regard: The Mu’tazilite Principles of Faith, question 8864 (site: 8811) ; Types and Degrees of Monotheism, question 1913 (site: 3445) ).
2. According to Shia, God cannot be seen in this world nor can He be seen in the Hereafter. See (Shia and Sunni on Seeing God, question 8408 (site: 8477) ; God cannot be seen as explicitly denoted by verse 54 of Chapter al-Baqarah, question 6477 (site:8498) ; Seeing God, question 5621 (site: 7911))
3. Unlike the Sunnis, Shia holds that it is not permissible on God’s part to punish an obedient and give rewards to a sinner. (In this regard, see: Justice according to Shia and Mu’tazilah No. 5923 (site: 6122) ).
4. Shia does not believe in determinism and compulsion. (In this regard, see: Man and Freedom, question 51 (site:287) ; God’s Foreknowledge and Man’s Free-will, question 2084 site: 2135) ; Man, Predestination and Free-will, question 1896 (site: 2718) ; Determinism and Free-will, question 2035 (site:2085) ; Rejection of Determinists’ Arguments, 528 (site: 576) ; The Concept of al-Amr bayn al-Amrayn, question 58 (site: 294) and also numbers: 1221 (site1217) and 130 (site:1237) and 1550 (site: 1570) and 2035 (site: 2085) ).
5. The most important Shiite belief is the belief in Imamate. Shia holds that Imamate is a part of the fundamentals of faith and the successor of the Prophet must be inerrant and infallible and it is precisely because of infallibility, which is known by none other than God, that the imam (leader) after the Prophet should be appointed by God and that the Islamic governments should lead to Wilayah.
6. Obeying an oppressive and unjust sovereign is not permissible according to Shia.
7. Shia believes that Ahlulbayt in verse 33 of Chapter al-Ahzab refers to Fatima (daughter of the Holy Prophet (pbuh)) and the pure Imams (a.s.).
8. Shia is of the view that the prophets are infallible. They do not commit any sin, whether capital or minor.
9. Bada, Raj’at (return) and intercession are also some of the Shiite beliefs. For further information, see: Bada, Tablet, Book, question 65 (site: 306) ; Raj’at (Return) and Its Features); question 5774 (site: 6014) and 3006 (site: 3578) ; The Return of Prophets, Imams, question 5884 (site: 8995)).
10. Shia does not consider all the companions of the Holy Prophet (pbuh) as just. There were different types of people amongst the companions. Some were just and some were hypocrites. Their fatwa (verdict) are not authoritative and valid for anyone. For further reading vide: Justice of All the Companions, question 5920 (site: 6136)).
B) Laws:
1. Taqiyah (dissimulation) is permissible according to Shia. For more details see: Tarawih Prayers and Taqiyah, question 7286 (site: 7804) ; Reasons behind Taqiyah of the Imams (a.s.) question No. 1779 (site: 2132) ; question 3022 (site: 4099) .
2. Mut’ah (Fixed-time marriage) is permissible according to Shiite viewpoint. For further explanation, see: A Study of the Ahadith (Traditions) on Mut’ah, question 3320 (site: 4098) ; Fixed-time Marriage and Peacefulness, No. 2925 (site: 3130) ; Fixed-time marriage in the Quran and Sira of the Infallibles No.6146 (site: 6348).
3. The gate of Ijtihad is open according to Shia.
4. Shia does not accept ta’sib and awl [1] in inheritance.
5. According to Shia, combining between two prayers is permissible. For further explanation, see: The Sira of the Prophet and the Imams in combining between Zuhr and Asr prayers, 9346 (site: 9329).
6. “Hayya ‘ala Khayril ‘Amal” (Hasten to the best acts) is a part of the Adhan.
7. It is permissible to visit the Infallible Imams’ graves (we believe that not only visiting graves is not shirk (idolatrous) but it is very much a monotheistic act and there is a lot of reward in it.). For further explanation, you can refer to the following answers on our website: “The Differences and Commonalties between Shia and Sunni Schools of Thought on Mahism, question 1425 (site: 1708) ; Particulars and Features of Shia, question 4942 (site: 9686); and also books written in this regard including: Al-Jawame’ wal-Fawareq bayn al-Sunnah wa al-Shia by Muhammad Jawad Mughniyah; Ma’a al-Shia al-Imamiyah fi Aqaedehim, by Ayatollah Ja’far Subhani, Islamic Beliefs in the Light of the School of Ahlalbayt by Ayatollah Ja’far Subhani.
[1] - The principle of 'awl (proportionate reduction) is applied by Sunni jurists when the estate of the deceased is 'oversubscribed' by Quranic heirs. Ta'sib is applied by Sunni jurisprudence to give priority to male agnates as heirs, and this results in many mathematical complexities in their system of inheritance. The only really significant difference between the Shi'ah and Sunni schools of jurisprudence in the laws of inheritance concerns the principles of "'awl" and "ta'sib". The Imamiyah jurisprudents have proved by means of ahadith from the Ahlu 'l-bayt (a.s.) that there is no 'awl or ta'sib in the matter of inheritance. This was also the opinion held by the great companions of the Holy Prophet. The well-known statement of Ibn 'Abbas in which he speaks against 'awl and ta'sib can be taken as authoritative. There are also other grounds of proof for negating these two principles.
I am not shia or sunni I am muslim. Beware of those who divide thier religion into sects.
Narrated Aisha: Once the Prophet was bewitched so that he began to imagine that he had done a thing which in fact he had not done.

Quran 68:1-2
Exactly. Allah protected Muhammad pbuh all his life, there is no way he would've let Abu Bakr (ra), Umar (ra) and Uthman (ra) near him if they were evil and plotting to steal the Caliphate. Astagfirullah. These people need to remember Ali (ra) named three of his sons after the first three caliphas.
