Why did they talk about Sunnis and smaller sects of Islam like Alevis and Sufis but overlook Shia Islam which is the second largest denomination and the fastest growing??

[scorpioninpink]

@412envy are the alevis muslims??? i thought they are a different religion... not a sect... but you are right... i kept waiting for shia in this documentary but they never discussed it...

[ramatirthadasa]

as far as I'm concerned,anyone who smokes is not a real Muslim,Hindu,Jaina,SIkh,Buddhi­st,Christian,Bahai,Jew ect.

@marcelcol69 "I have left with you something, which if you strictly adhere to, you shall never go astray-The Book of Allah and my progeny." - Prophet Muhammed (pbuh) in Sahih Bukhari and Muslim.

We love the companions that didn't stab Prophet Muhammed (pbuh) in the back after his death. But you can't even decide whose side you would have been on in the Battle of Camel. Shame on you for deeming me a heretic when you glorify transgressors and criminals.

@412envy

Masha Allah, for you shia,, it means IT IS AS ALLAH HAS WILLED

MASHALLAH!!!!

ALHAMDULILLAH, that they never showed the deen dalala of the shi'e !!! the deen that only focuses on ahlulbayt and not much on Allah !!!

Mutt'ah accepting , taqeedah attackers of islam dont have the right to even call itself islam,

only the sect you of you who are zaydi, or those shi'a that have somewhat have tawheed and no hate for the sahaba, these are muslim,

alevis are shia-sufi by the way

The series name sound so tempting hearing about almost extinct religions. I really hoped it will be accurate and hidden gems revealing. alas, to describe Judaism & Israel only through the disputed Efrat settlement in the west bank is to say the least, biased . Not to fix Arabs remarks as for the temple mount origin (all but NON Jewish) and not correct it is worrisome ignorance.if this is the level of presentation, facts finding and accuracy on these simple facts, I wonder how bad is in general

@n0s0upfory0u HA! Says the guy who supports Aisha despite her going to war with the man Prophet Muhammed (pbuh) said "Ail to me is what Aaron is to Moses." Says the guy who thinks his Prophet married a 9 year old child. Says the guy who knows Abu Bakr took inherited land away from Fatima (pbuh) and she died angry at him. Says the guy who dilutes the slaughter of Hussain (pbuh) and his babies at Karbala. Yeah. Keep telling yourself that you represent them. Actions speak louder than words.

[n0s0upfory0u]

@412envy no sir im not a wahabee. and it was very cheap that you putting " ahlul bayt" after "shia". ahlul bayt is our everything. shia cant represent them.

[412envy]

@n0s0upfory0u You ignorant bigot. This is the problem with you closed-minded, arrogant Wahabis. All you do is accuse people of being bound to hell. Last time I checked, it was YOUR people who are responsible for suicide bombings, for terrorist attacks, for dictatorship in the Middle East, and for oppressing people, especially women and the poor. And you say Shias of Ahlul Bayt have dirty faces? Said like a true follower of Umar and Muawiyah. Good job.

[n0s0upfory0u]

@412envy shia = fitna. maybe thats why they didnt talk about it. and their faces are really dirty, because they are cursing sahaba..

[shahiwarraich]

thank you so much for this great series, but with all due respect i wanna say that there is only ONE ISLAM, sunni, shia, sufi, these r the ppl made sects. Almighty God n Prophet never taught to make sects n divide. regards :)

[412envy]

@scorpioninpink Alevis believe that God manifested himself in the body of the cousin of the Prophet of Islam. In this documentary, you can even see a picture of him hanging on the wall if you look closely.
