Should I convert to Shia?

Don't be offended, just answer the question. I don't have time to read your emails. If you want to tell me something that is more than the length of a comment then feel free to post a video response. I am open minded and I have nothing against Shia or their religion. I think everyone should have freedom to believe what they like.

I also hate to see people divided over religion. Just be happy.

The biggest problem that I have with Shia is that they pray to dead saints. The thing that I like the most about Shia is that their mosques are very clean. They think that if there is impurity on the floor of the mosque then the prayer become null. Since I'm a clean person, I really like that.

I think that Sunnis and Shia unfairly label each other. People are people. I can find bad Shia and bad Sunnis. In religion there are different levels of people. Some people just like to carry a name. There are different levels.

Ofcourse you can pray directly to god being a shia. What you were reading about going through sources refers to the ayat of quran where allah says that he will only gift a select few of his servants the opportunity to intercede for faithful muslims. Shia believe that these individuals are the prophet mohammad and his pure family. So praying to prophet and his family is wrong but asking for intercession through them is the best way to pray and for faithful shia it is the only way to pray.

Because they believe that a man sitting inside a well is running the world, check out this video:

Imam Mahdi is God! says shia Mahmoud Ahmadinejad

Wahhabi - a sect without adherents.

I have yet to meet a person who calls themselves that.

@trichmomma

It doesn't say that review the meaning of the sentence in Arabic. You say the brother wants an answer. Your mathab is based on Omar's beliefs and not the prophets (pbuf) and if you don't believe me check your sources :)!

[trichmomma]

Forgive me iPhone wrote something else than ayat.But I did read Surah 5 ayat 6.It clearly says ankles not knees.

@MoeyJay1991.I just read Quraan Surah 5(Al-Ma'idah) ayatollah 6.It says wash the feet to the ankles.Don't want to argue,I'm just saying.....The brother just wants an answer to his question.Your books contradict themselves.How is that to be explained.May Allaah azzawajal guide us.

Your'e brain washed. Go research the beliefs of Shias using unbiased sources. The curse of Allah is on your face Whabbai.

@thundafundamentalist My Dear Brother, in Islam and Humanity. Debate aside, please forgive me if I have offended you in anyway. That was never my aim nor intention. Please forgive me. You have put forward many valid points, I have tried my best to answer and have benefited greatly from our exchange of knowledge. Thank you for replying humbly and again forgive my short comings. The passion may have took over for a moment in my replies, and I am ashamed for offending u or making you feel attacked.

@MoeyJay1991 in my madhab fundamentals aren't there?

p.s. shia path?

Quran condemns sect making.

Why do you believe in an innovated concept of imamate which has no basis in the quran itself? Read my comments below and realize how impossible it is for any shia to prove the ARTICLE of their faith since not a single ayah of Quran clearly mentions /commands anyone to believe in 12 infallable imams.

Shi'aism = not = islam.

Islam is perfect.

Shia'ism is nothing but a lie.
