Hi/Salam!

Thanks for sharing this amazing video! You have come very far in understanding Shia Islam. I have a lot to learn about Shia Islam to reach your level of knowledge. There is one question I have been struggeling with. It is about the Twelve Imams/caliphs that the Prophet of Islam told about. Are these leaders chosen by Allah or are they chosen by election, like in the case with Abu Baker. Thanks a lot for your help :) / sincerely Carina

@carinatube00

As far as Shia are concerned, they are chosen by Allah, SWT, and they are the family of the prophet, the Ahl-al-bayt. you will probably find some difference in opinion, but this is what we believe :)

if u dont mind me asking, what made u turn towards shia islam from the beginning? (meaning when first looking into islam, why did shia islam stick out to you more than the majority, sunni islam?)

[BoulderHijabi]

@oxXdesihijabiXxo

well while researching Islam I also looked into the history, and the more I researched, the more I sympathized with Ali and Ahl-al-beyt. From a historical perspective, it made more sense to me that Ali should have taken over after the prophet's death. So on a very simple level, that was the main reason.

[khaled401]

can I ask you a question. What do you think about Sunni Muslims? 

[BoulderHijabi]

@khaled401

I have no problem with Sunnis !! we are all Muslims :)

so many haters on this video thumbing it down just because she is telling the truth..... who are they kidding ?

[senamoot]

people if you hate shia=you are dumb, otherwise dont search for mistakes of others-as if you were more "supperior than other people!!"-rather:see the good stuff they may have and follow that good stuff only if you like.

[senamoot]

not all shia do Mutaah marriage,but some of them may find a reason for doing so.

mutaa marriage:

has dowry

agreement between two sides-the only extra thing is it has agreement on even time\duration of that temporary type of marriage..-

Father is supposed to be responsible for his legitamate born child if any baby was born out of that type of marriage-if father doesnt, then he is sining&doing awuful thing-.

Also Mutaa marriage shouldnt be by force, otherwise its abuse for the other person.

[senamoot]

In mutaa marriage there is also iddah-the duration which women has to obstain from having relationship with males:like marriage and so on..-yeh,if any intercourse was made in that marriage that is. to know who the father is-I belive its about three months?-like in complete divorce in normal type of marriage.

Also the ladie cant have more than one partner at same time! in mutaah.

and a male cant ever marry mutaah with a women already married to another man..

[jigglyfidda125]

The Islamic Golden Age flourished during the rue of the Shia Fatimid caliphate. Shias are the ones who made Islam sucessful

@onlyme373 Shia and Sunni wasn't just divided for fun, it was a big question, who was the succesors of the Prophet, may God's blessings be upon him and his progeny.

But what we can do is to hold each other's hands and not stay together.

Shortly said; We are ONE ummah, BUT with diffrent opinions.

Long live Shia and my lovely sunni brothers.

Stay away from wahabism.
