The matter of leadership evolved into the Shia institution of the Imamate, a spiritual leader followers considered chosen by God. Ali was the first of the 12 most important Imams, and Shias regularly visit the shrines of the Imams. Sunnis have Imams too, but these men are more like prayer leaders and scholars, and they don't hold the same religious or political authority as Shia imams.


Shia also interpret some verses of the Quran (the holy book of Islam) differently than do Sunnis. Suffering and martyrdom are idealized more in Shia tradition than Sunni, and the sects hold varying views on divine justice and free will. Shia'ism has its own call to prayer, prayer forms, and ritual practices as well.

In the Name of ALLAH, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.

By ALLAH's (swt) help and grace we are able to open this channel. Our main goal is to show to the world but especially to those who are living outside the Shia countries, the true shia, what are their beliefs, their doctrine, books of beliefs, religious practices and what do they think about the Prophets (pbuh) companions (ra) and his family (ra). The other reason why we have opened this channel and worked hard to translate the videos is because we get e-mails from the new muslims telling us that Shia people won't answer their basic questions regarding their beliefs. To us the true islam has a straightforward answer to everything.

May ALLAH (swt) reward us all and guide us to the right path and may ALLAH (swt) open the shia eyes and guide them to the right sunnah and path (ameen).

Allah (swt) have trusted Ahl Al-Sunnah in:

1) Compiling, memorizing, publishing his book the glorious Quran.
2) Allah (swt) trusted Ahl Al-Sunnah in guarding his holy places like Kabah, Masjid Al-Nabawi and Masjid Al-Aqsa.
3) Ahl Al-Sunnah are the imams of the Kabah, Masjid Al-Nabawi and Masjid Al-Aqsa.
4) Ahl Al-Sunnah are the main stream islam and we are the majority.
5) The companions and Ahl Al-Bayt together are the ones who spread islam through out the world.
6) The companions and Ahl Al-Bayt are one family because they are connected by marriage.
7) Ahl Al-Sunnah are the ones who built the islamic schools and universities.
So how can Allah (swt) put his trust in all that to the hands of unbelievers kafirs?! Only the people who doesn't thave a mind and not able to think well will disprove of all that. May Allah (swt) guide us all to the right path and make us be with the most righteous people like Abu Bakir, Omar, Othman, Ali, Fatimah, Aysha, Bilal, Hassan, Hussain and the rest may Allah (swt) be pleased with them and us inshAllah ameen.
