  • @iqbal9458 I dont see any point in discussion with you

  • It is a? historical fact that Ali named three of his own children? as Abu Bakr, Umar, and Uthman.

    This fact is recorded by the classical Shia scholar, Shaikh Mufid, in "Kitab al-Irshad",? pp. 268-269, where? these three? sons of Ali are listed? as numbers? 12, 6 and 10 respectively

    WHAT A LANAT FROM ALI ON SHIANE IBLEES THAT BY KEEPING HIS SONS? NAMES ON THREE KHULFAS ALI HAS BLOWED A? POWERFUL PUNCH ON THE LANTI FACES OF SHIANE? IBLEES AND ALI HAS PROVED THAT HE HAS NO LINK? WITH? SHIAS.

  • @AlGibouri1 Shia are Infidel .... If wanna search, you will easily find them Unbelievers(non-muslim) from every angle...

  • Just don't say that it made by Zionist or Jew or Israeli

  • This is.. I cant find any word to describe the horror of this bloodshed. They call us kufar (infidels), while our shahada is there is no god but Allah and Muhammad is his messenger. When you kill that person, you kill a soul that is very precious to Allah. Our prophet was nice to his jewish neighbor and took care of him when the jew was sick!

    I just dont know how that terrorist is gonna meet Allah, what will his answer be when asked by Allah? why he took the lives of nearly 100 muslim people?

  • @lifeovdeath Edit - have fought

  • All that and the enemies of Islam who claim to be Muslims have taught the prophets family and there followers,

  • This isn't new and it's not going to end, the Shias have been targeted for hundreds of years. At some points in time the hand and legs of the pilgrims were cut off, hence the slogan "if they cut our hands and legs, well crawl to you oh Hussien" and then people were taxed in gold in order to visit imam Hussains grave. Then another government ruled that for every ten people one person must die in order to visit imam hussain, and up to today.

  • I wish I could see a humane way to end the bloodshed. The best thing to do is nothing… The opposing sects must be allowed to sort things out without western intervention. Trying to create and artificial peace for the benefit of keeping the flow inexpensive crude oil flowing has shamefully added much fuel to this destructive fire that has killed countless innocent women and children.

  • Was expected from the Wahhabis.
