Islam is one religion with no sects. There will be 73 sects or rather deviations but only the true group one is saved. The true one that follows the Quran and Sunnah and three righteous generations. Madahib are not denominations or sects. All four madahib are haqq. As for theology there is only one theology that all madahib and the three righteous generations followed. Islam should not be understood through the reason of the Greek Philosophers. Allahu3alam.
I’m a Christian, but this video was well thought out and easy to follow through! Shoutout to Reedemed Zoomer for the inspiration, but y’all still did your thing making this simple and concise. Massive respect to you guys and God bless 🙏
1) that is a hadith 2) the authentic part is that the muslims will divide into 72 sects 3) The part with contention is the part that they are all in hell except one. Assume all the statements are authentic. The hadith states that this saved sect is the "Jama'a", or main body of Muslims. Not some fringe esoteric group like Isma'ilis Not heretics like Ahmadia/Qadiyanis Not radicals like the khawarij (closest modern equivilant is modern day IZIZ) Or deviants like the Jahmis Or the extreme grave worshiping sufis He also said in another hadith "God's hand is with the Jama'a (main body of Muslims)", and indicated in many other hadiths the importance of not deviating from the main body of Muslims. As long as you are upon the pure, prophetic methodology of sunni Islam, as long as you don't differ in fundamentals of creed (oneness of Allah, Allah not manifesting in creation) you will ve saved For more info: islamqa.info/en/answers/90112/who-are-the-saved-group www.islamweb.net/en/fatwa/107122/eternity-in-hellfire-for-the-72-deviant-sects islamqa.info/en/answers/129109/is-following-the-four-madhhabs-included-in-the-hadith-about-the-73-sects @@Orthosaur7532
@@MuslimMindsUSShias have a distinct belief of God though they adhere to Divine Simplicity (a Catholic belief too to be fair) and has a Trinitarian inspired belief such as the belief of the Essence, ilm Allah (knowledge of God), the Soul where creation comes from.
although the notion of the Divine Simplicity held by shi'is are similar to Christian Catholic "energia theology" in comparison to Shi'ite "sifa theology" that they're distinct from the unknown essence of God and created wholly that creation may identify God through them. this is also why the shiites can say the imams are with the attributes of God, and same with Christ (though the shiites believe imams are persons on their own, but we believe the humanity of Christ is united to the divine person, hence it is Divine and the person is attributed with attributes of which God is identical to, such as way and truth, and love (Christ is not a human person, the union of the person which is Divine and the flesh isn't to say God changed)
and we also believe Christ' person isn't created, and the attributes attributed to the person is by His nature whilst Shi'is believe the persons of the imams definitely are created but by the sifa inherited to them became what they are (basically nestorianism)
4:33 The Prophet (SAWAS) actually did explicitly say who should follow him. He held Imam Ali (AS)‘s hand up and said “Whoever loves me loves Ali, whoever follows me follows Ali, whoever believes me believes Ali, I am the kingdom of knowledge, and Ali is the gate.”
@@ArtukTalasi The source is correct and this event occured recognist by sunnis and shias alike. However there is adifferent interpretation of the phrases the prophet (ﺹ) used. Specifically the word "Mauwla" (مولى), which holds a lot of meanings (as usual for words in arabic), while shias understand this as Ali is a "leader/protector", the sunni approach is Ali is a "friend/companion".
@@armilusassyrthe Arabic root مول means leader or guide or guidance not friend friend is from the roots رفق but a common one used is saadiq which is the root صدق which is relayed to truth because a friend is always true
This video is done very well, as an Orthodox. Really explains thing well, especially fkr those who are interested in differences in Islam or simply want to learn more about the religion. Thank you
one correction, the work tassawuf has many meanings in arabic. Some tasawwuf (sufism) is bida'h and some is praiseworthy. Even sunni muslims engage in tasawwuf to an extent where the understanding of tasawwuf is to have a deeper connection with allah and to enhance your remembarance of allah transcending the physical world. Deobandis and barelwis espicially. Also, the ash'ari and maturidii school of aqeedah are almost the same with a few minor differences which even some kalam scholars hold that they are just semantically different.
I as a shia want to give some constructive criticism here, as your account of Shi'ism was incredibly rooted in bias as opposed to objective analysis. We don't just simply prefer Ali (AS) as the successor, we believe the Prophet (SAWA) directly appointed him for all to see and hear at Ghadir. This makes accepting any other alternative not just incorrect, but a form of kufr as it means disobedience to what the Prophet (SAWA) commanded. You mentioned that we reject "authenticated" sunni sources, without noting that we have our own hadith compilations, or why we reject the sunni sources. We take our deen from Qur'an and Ahlul-bayt, in other words, all our hadiths are from the Prophets (SAWA) family. This is what the Prophet (SAWA) commanded, even in your own sunni texts such as Muslim and Tirmidhi. The Prophet (SAWA) did not command us to follow the sahaba or tabe'een, and we Shia consider them as untrustworthy and unreliable hence taking deen from then would be a very problematic matter. This is why we reject them, which you failed to mention. While you of course have your personal views, if you want to make a video to objectively explain the differences, there can't be bias, and you have to present the Shia view from the Shia perspective, as opposed to the sunni perspective. In the same way that you couldn't present the sunni perspective from the shia view.
Haha we can’t go too in depth, gotta keep it simple and engaging. Maybe in the future though 👀- Hamza Besides, Quran only and Ibadis are considered heretical, not technically denominations or sects. They are not commonly known or associated as a type of Islam such as ahmadis by the masses. They are more independent Islamic self-associating groups. -Rohaib
@@MuslimMindsUS For your kind info, Ibadis are Muslims, not Heretics. However Ahmadis, Nation of Islam and also pure Quranists are considered Heretics. @ 22 April 2024 # 5:59 PM
Nice video boys! It's like the Redeemed Zoomer video about Christian Denominations! I'd like to add the the Sufi whirling practice is specific to the Mevlevi order of Sufism. Orders of Sufism, or Tariqa, is defined as the path to God or Haqq, i.e: Connecting to the divine. Most orders follow the same fundementals of Islam anyways. The differences would be in how they do their hadras/dhikrs. Some do whirling, some just chant astagfiullah, la illaha illah la over and over, some just do it in silence. Depends. It would also be incorrect to call Sufism a sect... It's more like a practice within Islam or dimension for the lack of better term, trying to connect to Allah on a deep spiritual level. Most Sufis are Sunnis.
I am irreligious but I have a deep respect for Islam (frankly, more than any other religion). Thank you for making such informative and eye opening videos about your religion. ❤
4:31 he kinda did , but not in a direct way “who i am his lord , ali is his lord” , “who i believes i am a prophet ali is his lord” , etc… Also umar and abu bakr rushed to elect a caliph while imam ali wasnt there in the election Please dig in more into shia islam and you will find that it makes way more sense than it seems for an outsider
Thank you for the video! I am a Christian but I am interested in Islam culture and history, even though I don't believe it is true. Peace and God bless!
This was an informative and balanced video but there are a few things I would like to point out. 1.Mutazillites were their own sect not a Sunni creed. Both the early Asharis and Atharis used to refute them and Imam Ahmad (Rahimahullah) was tortured for opposing their view that the Quran was created and not the Speech of Allah (during the Mihna). 2. Not all Atharis were literalists, many of the traditional and early Atharis considered the wordings of the divine attributes to be Mutashabihat (meaning their true meaning was only known to Allah). 3.The image you used for the Barelvis were actually Turks, many Barelvis have opposition to musical instruments and the whirling practices. Many Deobandis also belong to Sufi orders as well (like the Naqshandis,Qadiris,Chishti and Suhrawardiyya). You will usually only find both of these groups amongst South Asians though. I get you couldn’t cover all sect but there were a few other sects which existed (at least historically) such as the Karramiyah (who believed Allah was made out of body parts,sat down on the Arsh and physically came down the Heavens at night and believed the universe was eternal), as well as the Jahmimiyyah (who believed Allah was literally everywhere and had many similarities to the Mutazillites). There were also the Murji’ah along with the Qadiriyah (the Qadiriyah used to reject Destiny and claim that calamities do not come from Allah but only good does which is why they were referred to as the Magians of the Ummah). There also some Shia subjects like the Nusayris (who call themselves “Alawites”) whose beliefs are in line with the early Shia Ghulat and Batiniyyah. They fall into Shirk (polytheism) due to them believing Imam Ali (Rahimahullah) was the incarnation of Allah. There were some other Shia subsects like the Qarmatians/seveners.
5:23 I wish you could just explain the domninations without your personal opinion on them saying there is no proof and what not,which makes this video pretty biased against shia honestly
My best Muslim friend has told me that Sufism isn't really a denomination itself but more of a "Thought" than a denomination. He's described himself as a "Hanafi-Sufi", and basically follows what the Ottoman Empire followed.
Oh yes. Let’s believe in a religion that’s 300 years after Jesus, advocates for a 100% man 100% god, Hercules person, a triune but one god being, a dying man god being, and has a corrupt book… yeah, NO! P.S. Jesus was born in Palestine, which means he wasn’t some white-skinned, blue-eyed guy who waved around an American flag.
4:46 What you said is really your own belief and opinion of the Sunni sect we Shia beleives that the imams are chosen from Allah (aswt) and the prophet (pbuh) DID mention who the next caliphate will be,read ghadir khumm hadith.
Assalamu Alaikom, very good video Allahuma Barik, but I had a question, is it a must to choose a school of aqeedah or can i just believe in Allah point blank period, for example with the issue of Allah having a hand. The Atharis say "Allah has a hand unlike ours and in a way that befits his majesty" and asharis say "Allah does not have a hand and this is a metaphor to his power", now although both ideas are plausible am I as a layman allowed to choose neither and say "I believe in Allah and his hand in whatever way he meant it whether it is literal or metaphorical because he knows best"? Also hypothetically, if someone was to choose the "wrong" aqeedah, will they still be considered a muslim on the day of judgement? Im looking forward to anyones feedback.
Salafis say he has a hand that befits him, Atharis say what you say, it's called Tafwidh al Ma'ana "We leave the meaning to Allah SWT" is the view of Ahmad bin Hanbal and many other prominent atharis. Asha'aris also say the same as the atharis, it's just New Asharis and Maturidis that say it is a metaphor. As for hellfire and aqidah, all of the 3 are valid except the salafi aqidah, but if the person follows any of them when they aren't a scholar they won't be judged.
@@apexinn Waseem, don't listen to this guy; he might be on drugs or something. Instead, "Dus Dawah" is a good channel that teaches the correct creed, which is Salafi/Atharism. P.S. Use the tools Allah gave you, like sound reasoning and your Fitrah. When you do, you'll come to realize Salafism is true because we advocate nothing but Quran, sunnah and sahaba.
All Asharis Dont say its a metaphor for power. You have a misunderstanding. Most Asharis Say its better not to delve in these matters while affirming Allah is not like creation(official position), Even refraining from translating "Yad" as Hand, like the salafis. Some later asharis did interpretation of it as power, to prevent Tajsim(Likening of God to creation). Asharis say Allah doesnt have a physical hand like humans, because thats what hand translates to.Allah is not a body since bodies are created, The Quran says There is no likeness to God and hes unique. Best thing for us laymen is, Hold Surah Ikhlas for Aqeedah, since its very clear, and Was the Answer to "Who is God that you worship?"
4:30 what kind of leader would leave their nation without any guide? The prophet clearly declared Ali ع as his successor in many hadiths... Please learn some basic planning
Zaydiyya do not do any of the things it is said "shia" do, but we do deny the twelver doctrine of an infallible Imam, and the doctrine that Imamate can be passed down. The most authentic opinion in the Zaydi school is that the Sunni hadiths can be acted upon. To be clear we do not believe in a "line" of Imams as no human can absolutely declare someone obligatory to follow. The Imams are chosen by shura, like at the vent of saqifah.
You didn't mention ismailis (aga Khanis), who consider themselves to be the second largest "Shia sect". They don't have islamic salah. They only do their own dua, which isn't done facing Kaba, and it is 3 per day, combined into 2. Once in the morning and two combined in the evening. It is a secretive cult-like sect centred around the idolisation of "the Aga Khan", to whom they are obliged to give a large % of their income every month. Some consider this to be a Shia sect, others consider it to be a financial scam. Check out Salim Lalani's TH-cam channel. He is a former Aga Khan devotee who has exposed their practices, which he sees as abusive and exploitative. What's your opinion on Ismailism?
Because we had a lot to cover in ten minutes we only brushed on this sect barely, maybe one day in the future we can expose it further. Jazak Allah khair for sharing
assalamu alaikum, may Allah accept your efforts but this is too simplistic of an explanation with some mistake my brothers. one could easily be misled by this video. i would recommend taking the video down and remaking it or leaving this topic till you're more knowledgeable. better safe than sorry. some feedback please read it carefully: - in mentioning shias visiting shrines you neglected to mention they commit shirk (the greatest sin) by making duas to their saints. you also neglected to mention twelvers/raafidah curse the companions and doubt the Quran's preservation. if one has these beliefs ofcourse it takes one out of the fold of Islam - you called schools of fiqh and schools of aqidah both "schools of thought". this is quite confusing and might make one assume they're further sub categories... (they're not). call them schools of fiqh and schools of aqidah (or the best english equivalent) - you call followers of Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab "Wahhabis". this is an exonym (a namecalling label) my brothers. there's no such sect that calls themselves "wahhabi" - you often cannot pronounce words properly (no offense). such as calling ahl-e-hadith ahle "E" hadith. it's pronounced more like "eh". or pronouncing shia matam (strong t) as ma-th-am - you mentioned kharijites alongside Ahmadis. this might make it seem like they're out of the fold of Islam. they're not An-Nawawi (may Allah have mercy on him) said: “The view of ash-Shafi'i and the majority of his fellow scholars is that the Khawarij are not to be described as disbelievers; this also applies to the Qadariyyah and the majority of the Mu‘tazilah and other groups that follow whims and desires.” (Sharh Muslim, 7/160) I advise you to avoid the fake neutral approach of non Muslim channels and be proud of saying the truth even if it seems "biased" may Allah bless you
People who use it as such are typically ignorant of its true meaning. Every true Muslim would technically believe they are salafi as we try to emulate the way of the Salaf. - The early Muslims who lived with and followed the teachings of the prophet Muhammad ﷺ However, the term has garnered some negative attention due to extreme individuals who use the term to describe themselves. Wahhabism, in practice is too strict and ignores reason and practicality (obviously within the Islamic paradigm) -Rohaib
quick question why are these denominations of islam in your eyes not the same as the Christian denominations? i don't think either effect the validity of the religions but wanted to hear your thoughts on it . Also what school are you guys?
From what we learned and know about Christianity, there are huge differing beliefs between Catholics and Protestants that are too huge to ignore regarding the direct creed of Christianity. All of islams “denominations” are not differing on that nature, the foundation of the faith is secure and unshakable, there are just differences on small legal and ritual matters. To our understanding, the differences in Christian denominations are larger and some Christian groups call other Christians heretics and stuff like that. Let me know if that makes sense and interested to hear your thoughts! We are Sunnis and don’t specifically hold to one group. - Hamza
@@MuslimMindsUShey Hamza! Thanks for the response. I understand your point of view but I would disagree with that statement since those who are actually educated/ in scholar work of Christianity will agree while there are differences the three of prots orthodox and catholic agree on the fundamental essentials (found in the nicene creed) i will agree though on a general pop level as in the average Protestant calling each other heretical that is definitely an issue that arises a lot from bad teachings (especially in America lol) . This is a topic i looked into alot so id like to think i have a decent grasp on it but thank u for ur response regardless!. Another question if you guys don’t hold to any school of thought in particular do you go to certain schools of thought depending on the situation at hand or do you just hold to what the authentic hadith and Quran say and not mind everything else? Thanks! Great video as always
My parents grew up in middle east as muslims but they moved after the war so, I grew up in the church and thought that was the whole religion just going to church every Sunday and eventually stopped going and started to do my own thing. But I wanted to find the purpose of life because I knew everything we worked for would pass away. So I started to look into all the religions to see if christianity was even really the ultimate truth. Later on opened up the Bible and saw the Jesus people talked about was completely different from what was in the Bible. I started to draw closer to the higher power and had a supernatural encounter with him and I felt the most love and peace and was truly indescribable and out of this world, and nothing i've ever felt from then on and never will tbf will come close to that experience, but I was shocked because I wasn't expecting this encounter, so I went up to my balcony and everything looked brand new like it was the first time seeing the nature when I looked outside. Almost like a new born and it was like it was so detailed . Every time I used to go outside it looked so boring and mundane and natural but this time that all changed, and I’m here to tell you it’s about a relationship not religion and he is real and did die on the cross for you willingly and thinks you as the only person and was thinking of you while dying.
Quick advice, brothers. Just like how you criticized the Nation of Islam and others, it would have been wise to criticize Asharis, Shias, and the rest too. Also, in the video it almost seem like you guys were differentiating Atharism and Salafism, yet they’re the same thing. p.s No ill intent.
We noticed this too brother actually after the fact, we were too middle ground sounding. Khair Insha Allah, this vid will be more so informative and we will probably make follow-up videos break these down further bithnillah
4:30 Don't just explain why you don't support their interpretation, provide *Why* they believe Ali should have been selected. Shia believe Ali was chosen because of the Bey3a at Ghdier Qum. And the story about Abu Bakr being instructed by the Prophet to Lead Prayer goes against the fact that he instructed Abu Bakr to leave Medinah on an expedition.
We avoided going too deep into the disagreements for the sake of keeping the video short. Maybe in a future video. We highlighted two important elements, the prophet never directly appointed a successor, and on his death bed he chose Abu Bakr radiallahuan to lead the prayer
@@MuslimMindsUS You are just proving your bias. Instead of providing a brief insight into the schools of Islam, you highlight why this group must surely be in the wrong. Either be impartial and mention the arguments of both, or be brief and mention neither.

@@SomeInternetUser45 Correction. All madhabs aren’t haqq in the sense that every single ruling within these madhabs is a green light and you can pick and choose. The madhabs are generally correct, but some rulings are wrong within a particular madhab, as scholars are humans and get things wrong. An example is Hanafis saying one doesn’t need a guardian, which goes against a clear Hadith.
Read what the prophet (pbuh)'s will was,he said "I left in you that if you take guidance in you won't be lost,Allah's book and my household,they won't be separated" This is in sahih Bukhari and you can search it
"Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) is the FINAL messenger", what about the group called Ahmadiyya? That group can be found in India and Pakistan if i'm not mistaken.
Pretty sure the teaching in Ahmadiyya far outshines the mainstream understandings of true Islam. It does NOT make up fairytale narration out of the Quran or the Hadith. It follows Quran much closely thanks to their Prophet (Their Masih and Mahdi) which is subject of opposition and is considered “boring” compared to mainstream ideas that Jesus is somehow still alive and will return and fight dajjal (a person) together with Imam Mahdi. Cool story for a novel, still fictional. Similar to… when the Jews was waiting for their Messiah, but got Jesus instead. And there is a list of stuff that makes way more sense than mainstream understanding. Just closely read 5:116-117. If Isa(as) comes back the Quran has to be abrogated. Isa(as) cannot be saying those words of the Quran if he actually comes back. But some muslims ullama believe Quran can be abrogated. This is an invention, and a helpful tool to support their narratives
Muslim Minds is a typical example of one of the 72 sects. They prefer to create their own definition of a Muslim rather than use the definition present in Quran and Ahadtih.

@@destroylonely428 they literally mended relationship and there so much Daleel for that. And let’s say they didn’t, the prophet Muhammad (SAWA) literally confirmed that the sahabah have Allah on their side and that Allah was pleased with them.

Wallahi if the original Shia of Ali were alive today, they would be from Ahlul Sunnah
This explanation is based on the Sunni view and you have defined Shia belief with a wrong definition, not what they really are. The belief in Muhammad's succession is a purely political issue in the Sunni view, not in Shia belief. Because Muhammad was not an ordinary king for the issue of choosing his successor to be a purely political issue. You should really be ashamed, at least you would have read a reputable Shia belief book and then produced a video.

Most of the groups covered aren’t really “sects” as we understand in English or describing other faiths, just minor differences in rituals that’s do not effect the fundamentals That’s why the main distinction we included is shiaism as it moves past just standard differences of opinions
@MuslimMindsUS Thats objectively false. Shiaites (atleast the twelfth ones, which are the majority) hit themselves with chains on the begining to the end of muharram. they also pray on rocks. combine their prayers and their hijri calender is somehow a day off. some of the sufis dance in the mosques. and sing to "allah allah" while wobbling their heads. they believe wudu gives them special powers or something. the ahmadiyya have a whole new prophet somehow DESPITE the quran clearly stating that there wont be a new prophet after prophet muhammad s.a.w call them whatever you want. theres no shia muslim or sunni muslim or whatever muslim...theres only muslim and kaffir. there is no gray area. i would highly suggest you educate yourself on the dangers of the rawafidh and the khawarij lest you may be preyed as the ignorant

The prophet didn’t even leave a city of Muslims to go to another without choosing someone to be in charge of them, so him leaving his life, just HOPING the Muslims would elect a good leader is really funny concept. There’s so many more indicators to this I really urge you to look into history. Also the primary meaning of mawla is master/ leader, and the Prophet started that speech out by saying “Do I not have more authority over you than yourselves”, then said “whoever I am the maula of, Ali is his maula”- confirming this maula is one of authority.
No he is not, someone who don't know the "hour" can not be God. If you think the opposite than you believe a God concept that is not ommipotent which against the concept of Bible because Bible refers GOD as omnipotent.

I like you guys and iv been watching your videos from time to time. Your are pretty knowledgeable for your age and as someone about same age it is nice to see, but these "im right, you are wrong" leads nowhere. I know that one of your main reasons not to believe in Bible is belief that bible is corrupted. But please reconsider that it isnt just written text ,there were thousands of martyrs from first centuries. How is it possible all of them couldnt remember two simple sentences (about Christ divinity) but nevertheless they laid their lives for them! Are all of them insane? This is just one of many problems with that theory but almost no one talks about this, especially western preachers who forget or simply ignore first 15 or even more centuries of the Church... It is so sad, please take this in consideration. Wish you all the best and may the Lord finish his work with you :)
@@AlQuranAlKareem-tf9lpI bet they don’t even know they history of those letters. Hint: 2nd temple destroyed and the letters (Yode, Hay, Vave, Hay) or YHWH were left. And the Jews didn’t say the word because they thought the pronunciation of the word for God was lost. So to be respectful to god they just said Elohim.

Islam is one religion with no sects. There will be 73 sects or rather deviations but only the true group one is saved. The true one that follows the Quran and Sunnah and three righteous generations. Madahib are not denominations or sects. All four madahib are haqq. As for theology there is only one theology that all madahib and the three righteous generations followed. Islam should not be understood through the reason of the Greek Philosophers. Allahu3alam.

@RehanShaikh-zo2leDoesn't the Quran literally say that 72 sects will go to hell? How does that not count as "sect"?
@RehanShaikh-zo2le ur bringing the hadith about not imitating others and ignoring the hadith about the 73 sects lol
@RehanShaikh-zo2le jeez what did we christians do to you
1) that is a hadith
2) the authentic part is that the muslims will divide into 72 sects
3) The part with contention is the part that they are all in hell except one.
Assume all the statements are authentic. The hadith states that this saved sect is the "Jama'a", or main body of Muslims.
Not some fringe esoteric group like Isma'ilis
Not heretics like Ahmadia/Qadiyanis
Not radicals like the khawarij (closest modern equivilant is modern day IZIZ)
Or deviants like the Jahmis
Or the extreme grave worshiping sufis
He also said in another hadith "God's hand is with the Jama'a (main body of Muslims)", and indicated in many other hadiths the importance of not deviating from the main body of Muslims.
As long as you are upon the pure, prophetic methodology of sunni Islam, as long as you don't differ in fundamentals of creed (oneness of Allah, Allah not manifesting in creation) you will ve saved

Catholic here.. Good video guys..
Appreciate it MrMonchis!
@@MuslimMindsUSShias have a distinct belief of God though
they adhere to Divine Simplicity (a Catholic belief too to be fair) and has a Trinitarian inspired belief such as the belief of the Essence, ilm Allah (knowledge of God), the Soul where creation comes from.
although the notion of the Divine Simplicity held by shi'is are similar to Christian Catholic "energia theology" in comparison to Shi'ite "sifa theology"
that they're distinct from the unknown essence of God and created wholly that creation may identify God through them.
this is also why the shiites can say the imams are with the attributes of God, and same with Christ (though the shiites believe imams are persons on their own, but we believe the humanity of Christ is united to the divine person, hence it is Divine and the person is attributed with attributes of which God is identical to, such as way and truth, and love (Christ is not a human person, the union of the person which is Divine and the flesh isn't to say God changed)
and we also believe Christ' person isn't created, and the attributes attributed to the person is by His nature
whilst Shi'is believe the persons of the imams definitely are created but by the sifa inherited to them became what they are (basically nestorianism)
@@SlaveofGod777so shiaism is like a catholic-esque version of Islam?
4:33 The Prophet (SAWAS) actually did explicitly say who should follow him. He held Imam Ali (AS)‘s hand up and said “Whoever loves me loves Ali, whoever follows me follows Ali, whoever believes me believes Ali, I am the kingdom of knowledge, and Ali is the gate.”
Source:Shia trust me bro
Indeed Ali radiyallahu anh was righteous and Prophet ﷺ loved and praised him but never said he should be caliph.
@@ArtukTalasi The source is correct and this event occured recognist by sunnis and shias alike. However there is adifferent interpretation of the phrases the prophet (ﺹ) used. Specifically the word "Mauwla" (مولى), which holds a lot of meanings (as usual for words in arabic), while shias understand this as Ali is a "leader/protector", the sunni approach is Ali is a "friend/companion".
@@armilusassyrthe Arabic root مول means leader or guide or guidance not friend friend is from the roots رفق but a common one used is saadiq which is the root صدق which is relayed to truth because a friend is always true

one correction, the work tassawuf has many meanings in arabic.
Some tasawwuf (sufism) is bida'h and some is praiseworthy.
Even sunni muslims engage in tasawwuf to an extent where the understanding of tasawwuf is to have a deeper connection with allah and to enhance your remembarance of allah transcending the physical world.

I as a shia want to give some constructive criticism here, as your account of Shi'ism was incredibly rooted in bias as opposed to objective analysis.
We don't just simply prefer Ali (AS) as the successor, we believe the Prophet (SAWA) directly appointed him for all to see and hear at Ghadir. This makes accepting any other alternative not just incorrect, but a form of kufr as it means disobedience to what the Prophet (SAWA) commanded.
You mentioned that we reject "authenticated" sunni sources, without noting that we have our own hadith compilations, or why we reject the sunni sources. We take our deen from Qur'an and Ahlul-bayt, in other words, all our hadiths are from the Prophets (SAWA) family.
This is what the Prophet (SAWA) commanded, even in your own sunni texts such as Muslim and Tirmidhi.
The Prophet (SAWA) did not command us to follow the sahaba or tabe'een, and we Shia consider them as untrustworthy and unreliable hence taking deen from then would be a very problematic matter. This is why we reject them, which you failed to mention.
While you of course have your personal views, if you want to make a video to objectively explain the differences, there can't be bias, and you have to present the Shia view from the Shia perspective, as opposed to the sunni perspective.
In the same way that you couldn't present the sunni perspective from the shia view.
I wish you had talked more about Ibadism and Quran-only Islam.
Haha we can’t go too in depth, gotta keep it simple and engaging. Maybe in the future though 👀- Hamza
Besides, Quran only and Ibadis are considered heretical, not technically denominations or sects. They are not commonly known or associated as a type of Islam such as ahmadis by the masses. They are more independent Islamic self-associating groups.

Nice video boys! It's like the Redeemed Zoomer video about Christian Denominations!
I'd like to add the the Sufi whirling practice is specific to the Mevlevi order of Sufism. Orders of Sufism, or Tariqa, is defined as the path to God or Haqq, i.e: Connecting to the divine. Most orders follow the same fundementals of Islam anyways. The differences would be in how they do their hadras/dhikrs. Some do whirling, some just chant astagfiullah, la illaha illah la over and over, some just do it in silence. Depends. It would also be incorrect to call Sufism a sect... It's more like a practice within Islam or dimension for the lack of better term, trying to connect to Allah on a deep spiritual level. Most Sufis are Sunnis.
nicely explained

4:31 he kinda did , but not in a direct way “who i am his lord , ali is his lord” , “who i believes i am a prophet ali is his lord” , etc…
Also umar and abu bakr rushed to elect a caliph while imam ali wasnt there in the election
Please dig in more into shia islam and you will find that it makes way more sense than it seems for an outsider

Thank you!
Thank you for the video! I am a Christian but I am interested in Islam culture and history, even though I don't believe it is true. Peace and God bless!
Akhi that is not the picture of ibn abd al wahhab rahimullah. Cameras didnt exist back then. If am not mistaken this is his brother
Another brother pointed this out to us, our editor accidentally added this, we will correct this Insha Allah
This was an informative and balanced video but there are a few things I would like to point out.
1.Mutazillites were their own sect not a Sunni creed. Both the early Asharis and Atharis used to refute them and Imam Ahmad (Rahimahullah) was tortured for opposing their view that the Quran was created and not the Speech of Allah (during the Mihna).
2. Not all Atharis were literalists, many of the traditional and early Atharis considered the wordings of the divine attributes to be Mutashabihat (meaning their true meaning was only known to Allah).
3.The image you used for the Barelvis were actually Turks, many Barelvis have opposition to musical instruments and the whirling practices.
Many Deobandis also belong to Sufi orders as well (like the Naqshandis,Qadiris,Chishti and Suhrawardiyya).
You will usually only find both of these groups amongst South Asians though.
I get you couldn’t cover all sect but there were a few other sects which existed (at least historically) such as the Karramiyah (who believed Allah was made out of body parts,sat down on the Arsh and physically came down the Heavens at night and believed the universe was eternal), as well as the Jahmimiyyah (who believed Allah was literally everywhere and had many similarities to the Mutazillites).
There were also the Murji’ah along with the Qadiriyah (the Qadiriyah used to reject Destiny and claim that calamities do not come from Allah but only good does which is why they were referred to as the Magians of the Ummah).
There also some Shia subjects like the Nusayris (who call themselves “Alawites”) whose beliefs are in line with the early Shia Ghulat and Batiniyyah. They fall into Shirk (polytheism) due to them believing Imam Ali (Rahimahullah) was the incarnation of Allah.
There were some other Shia subsects like the Qarmatians/seveners.
Very informative, Jazak Allah khair!

My best Muslim friend has told me that Sufism isn't really a denomination itself but more of a "Thought" than a denomination. He's described himself as a "Hanafi-Sufi", and basically follows what the Ottoman Empire followed.

Oh yes. Let’s believe in a religion that’s 300 years after Jesus, advocates for a 100% man 100% god, Hercules person, a triune but one god being, a dying man god being, and has a corrupt book… yeah, NO! P.S. Jesus was born in Palestine, which means he wasn’t some white-skinned, blue-eyed guy who waved around an American flag.

4:46
What you said is really your own belief and opinion of the Sunni sect we Shia beleives that the imams are chosen from Allah (aswt) and the prophet (pbuh) DID mention who the next caliphate will be,read ghadir khumm hadith.
Great video! Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Assalamu Alaikom, very good video Allahuma Barik, but I had a question, is it a must to choose a school of aqeedah or can i just believe in Allah point blank period, for example with the issue of Allah having a hand. The Atharis say "Allah has a hand unlike ours and in a way that befits his majesty" and asharis say "Allah does not have a hand and this is a metaphor to his power", now although both ideas are plausible am I as a layman allowed to choose neither and say "I believe in Allah and his hand in whatever way he meant it whether it is literal or metaphorical because he knows best"?
Also hypothetically, if someone was to choose the "wrong" aqeedah, will they still be considered a muslim on the day of judgement?
Im looking forward to anyones feedback.
Salafis say he has a hand that befits him, Atharis say what you say, it's called Tafwidh al Ma'ana "We leave the meaning to Allah SWT" is the view of Ahmad bin Hanbal and many other prominent atharis.
Asha'aris also say the same as the atharis, it's just New Asharis and Maturidis that say it is a metaphor.
As for hellfire and aqidah, all of the 3 are valid except the salafi aqidah, but if the person follows any of them when they aren't a scholar they won't be judged.
@@apexinn Waseem, don't listen to this guy; he might be on drugs or something. Instead, "Dus Dawah" is a good channel that teaches the correct creed, which is Salafi/Atharism. P.S. Use the tools Allah gave you, like sound reasoning and your Fitrah. When you do, you'll come to realize Salafism is true because we advocate nothing but Quran, sunnah and sahaba.
@@ozone2126 Salafism is not the correct creed.
All Asharis Dont say its a metaphor for power. You have a misunderstanding.
Most Asharis Say its better not to delve in these matters while affirming Allah is not like creation(official position), Even refraining from translating "Yad" as Hand, like the salafis.
Some later asharis did interpretation of it as power, to prevent Tajsim(Likening of God to creation).
Asharis say Allah doesnt have a physical hand like humans, because thats what hand translates to.Allah is not a body since bodies are created, The Quran says There is no likeness to God and hes unique.
Best thing for us laymen is, Hold Surah Ikhlas for Aqeedah, since its very clear, and Was the Answer to "Who is God that you worship?"
Yes believe in Allah, his Books, his messengers and the 12 imams for guidance
4:30 what kind of leader would leave their nation without any guide? The prophet clearly declared Ali ع as his successor in many hadiths...
Please learn some basic planning
You guys are fire
Thank you Noor!
Zaydiyya do not do any of the things it is said "shia" do, but we do deny the twelver doctrine of an infallible Imam, and the doctrine that Imamate can be passed down.
The most authentic opinion in the Zaydi school is that the Sunni hadiths can be acted upon.
To be clear we do not believe in a "line" of Imams as no human can absolutely declare someone obligatory to follow. The Imams are chosen by shura, like at the vent of saqifah.

You didn't mention ismailis (aga Khanis), who consider themselves to be the second largest "Shia sect".
They don't have islamic salah. They only do their own dua, which isn't done facing Kaba, and it is 3 per day, combined into 2. Once in the morning and two combined in the evening.
It is a secretive cult-like sect centred around the idolisation of "the Aga Khan", to whom they are obliged to give a large % of their income every month.
Some consider this to be a Shia sect, others consider it to be a financial scam.
Check out Salim Lalani's TH-cam channel. He is a former Aga Khan devotee who has exposed their practices, which he sees as abusive and exploitative.
What's your opinion on Ismailism?
Because we had a lot to cover in ten minutes we only brushed on this sect barely, maybe one day in the future we can expose it further.
Jazak Allah khair for sharing
assalamu alaikum,
may Allah accept your efforts but this is too simplistic of an explanation with some mistake my brothers. one could easily be misled by this video. i would recommend taking the video down and remaking it or leaving this topic till you're more knowledgeable. better safe than sorry. some feedback please read it carefully:
- in mentioning shias visiting shrines you neglected to mention they commit shirk (the greatest sin) by making duas to their saints. you also neglected to mention twelvers/raafidah curse the companions and doubt the Quran's preservation. if one has these beliefs ofcourse it takes one out of the fold of Islam
- you called schools of fiqh and schools of aqidah both "schools of thought". this is quite confusing and might make one assume they're further sub categories... (they're not). call them schools of fiqh and schools of aqidah (or the best english equivalent)
- you call followers of Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab "Wahhabis". this is an exonym (a namecalling label) my brothers. there's no such sect that calls themselves "wahhabi"
- you often cannot pronounce words properly (no offense). such as calling ahl-e-hadith ahle "E" hadith. it's pronounced more like "eh". or pronouncing shia matam (strong t) as ma-th-am
- you mentioned kharijites alongside Ahmadis. this might make it seem like they're out of the fold of Islam. they're not
An-Nawawi (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
“The view of ash-Shafi'i and the majority of his fellow scholars is that the Khawarij are not to be described as disbelievers; this also applies to the Qadariyyah and the majority of the Mu‘tazilah and other groups that follow whims and desires.” (Sharh Muslim, 7/160)
I advise you to avoid the fake neutral approach of non Muslim channels and be proud of saying the truth even if it seems "biased"
may Allah bless you
There are only Muslims, not sunni or shia
JazakAllah Khairan
8:32 How do you guys feel when people use salafi/wahabi as a pejorative term?
People who use it as such are typically ignorant of its true meaning. Every true Muslim would technically believe they are salafi as we try to emulate the way of the Salaf. - The early Muslims who lived with and followed the teachings of the prophet Muhammad ﷺ
However, the term has garnered some negative attention due to extreme individuals who use the term to describe themselves.
Wahhabism, in practice is too strict and ignores reason and practicality (obviously within the Islamic paradigm)
-Rohaib
You mean Wahhabism, salafism is accepted by the scholars, but even when I’m call a wahabi, it honestly feels like I’m doing something right.
Although I am Christian I've learned alot today ❤
quick question why are these denominations of islam in your eyes not the same as the Christian denominations? i don't think either effect the validity of the religions but wanted to hear your thoughts on it . Also what school are you guys?
From what we learned and know about Christianity, there are huge differing beliefs between Catholics and Protestants that are too huge to ignore regarding the direct creed of Christianity. All of islams “denominations” are not differing on that nature, the foundation of the faith is secure and unshakable, there are just differences on small legal and ritual matters. To our understanding, the differences in Christian denominations are larger and some Christian groups call other Christians heretics and stuff like that. Let me know if that makes sense and interested to hear your thoughts!
We are Sunnis and don’t specifically hold to one group.
- Hamza
@@MuslimMindsUShey Hamza! Thanks for the response. I understand your point of view but I would disagree with that statement since those who are actually educated/ in scholar work of Christianity will agree while there are differences the three of prots orthodox and catholic agree on the fundamental essentials (found in the nicene creed) i will agree though on a general pop level as in the average Protestant calling each other heretical that is definitely an issue that arises a lot from bad teachings (especially in America lol) . This is a topic i looked into alot so id like to think i have a decent grasp on it but thank u for ur response regardless!. Another question if you guys don’t hold to any school of thought in particular do you go to certain schools of thought depending on the situation at hand or do you just hold to what the authentic hadith and Quran say and not mind everything else? Thanks! Great video as always
My parents grew up in middle east as muslims but they moved after the war so, I grew up in the church and thought that was the whole religion just going to church every Sunday and eventually stopped going and started to do my own thing. But I wanted to find the purpose of life because I knew everything we worked for would pass away. So I started to look into all the religions to see if christianity was even really the ultimate truth. Later on opened up the Bible and saw the Jesus people talked about was completely different from what was in the Bible. I started to draw closer to the higher power and had a supernatural encounter with him and I felt the most love and peace and was truly indescribable and out of this world, and nothing i've ever felt from then on and never will tbf will come close to that experience, but I was shocked because I wasn't expecting this encounter, so I went up to my balcony and everything looked brand new like it was the first time seeing the nature when I looked outside. Almost like a new born and it was like it was so detailed . Every time I used to go outside it looked so boring and mundane and natural but this time that all changed, and I’m here to tell you it’s about a relationship not religion and he is real and did die on the cross for you willingly and thinks you as the only person and was thinking of you while dying.
what does that have to do with the video btw nice bait too
yeah and how does jesus look like anyway?
Quick advice, brothers. Just like how you criticized the Nation of Islam and others, it would have been wise to criticize Asharis, Shias, and the rest too. Also, in the video it almost seem like you guys were differentiating Atharism and Salafism, yet they’re the same thing. p.s No ill intent.
We noticed this too brother actually after the fact, we were too middle ground sounding.
Khair Insha Allah, this vid will be more so informative and we will probably make follow-up videos break these down further bithnillah

Don't just explain why you don't support their interpretation, provide *Why* they believe Ali should have been selected.
Shia believe Ali was chosen because of the Bey3a at Ghdier Qum.
And the story about Abu Bakr being instructed by the Prophet to Lead Prayer goes against the fact that he instructed Abu Bakr to leave Medinah on an expedition.
We avoided going too deep into the disagreements for the sake of keeping the video short. Maybe in a future video. We highlighted two important elements, the prophet never directly appointed a successor, and on his death bed he chose Abu Bakr radiallahuan to lead the prayer

Islam is one religion with no sects. There will be 73 sects but only the true one is saved. The true one that follows the Quran and Sunnah and three righteous generations.

Islam should not be understood through the reason of the Greek Philosophers. Allahu3alam.

-Rohaib
Pretty sure the teaching in Ahmadiyya far outshines the mainstream understandings of true Islam. It does NOT make up fairytale narration out of the Quran or the Hadith. It follows Quran much closely thanks to their Prophet (Their Masih and Mahdi) which is subject of opposition and is considered “boring” compared to mainstream ideas that Jesus is somehow still alive and will return and fight dajjal (a person) together with Imam Mahdi. Cool story for a novel, still fictional. Similar to… when the Jews was waiting for their Messiah, but got Jesus instead. And there is a list of stuff that makes way more sense than mainstream understanding. Just closely read 5:116-117. If Isa(as) comes back the Quran has to be abrogated. Isa(as) cannot be saying those words of the Quran if he actually comes back. But some muslims ullama believe Quran can be abrogated. This is an invention, and a helpful tool to support their narratives
Muslim Minds is a typical example of one of the 72 sects. They prefer to create their own definition of a Muslim rather than use the definition present in Quran and Ahadtih.
Goofy ah ah… ain’t nobody accepting your religion bro. Thank Allah for Islam.

The Hanbali madhab isn't strict, it's actually more lenient than other madaahib in some aspects.
Interested, in what aspects are hanbalis more lenient?
@@MuslimMindsUS
1. You can do istijmaar instead of istinjaa
2. istinjaa does not need to be done immediately
3. man's awrah is up to knees & not including them
4. the condition for mas-h is that the type of sock must be such that the colour of skin isn't seen
5. only school that allows men to wipe over khimar during wudhu (also men over turban depending on conditions)
6. touching a non-mahram doesn't break wudhu (opposed to shafi'is)
7. fatihah isn't obligatory to recite for the one being led by an imam
8. woman (even non-mahram) can pray next to imam as long as not touching
9. jumu'ah can be prayed at duha (before zenith)
10. jumu'ah can be prayed in the desert area
11. when eid and jumuah are on the same day, you're exempt from jumu'ah as long as you pray eid prayer
12. eid prayer is only fard kifaya
13. many concessions for prayer to be combined
14. unlike hanafis, hanbalis allow for prayers to be combined while travelling
15. witr can be only 1 rak'ah
16. one may just pray fatiha during obligatory prayers
17. ^ non-obligatory too, obviously
18. women can lead other women in salah as opposed to malikis
19. women can pray in the masjid, opposed to latter-day hanafis
20. tawarih is 20 rak'ahs, as opposed to malikis who require 36
21. gold that women use as jewellery is exempt from zakah
22. only one upright person is needed to see the moon for the entering of ramadan
23. opposed to malikis, someone who mistakenly eats/drinks while fasting doesn't need to make up his day
24. no kaffarah is needed for the one who breaks fast in ramadan, except in the instance of sexual intercourse
25. only vomiting purposely breaks the fast
26. hajj tamattu' is preferrable
27. sacrificing animal on eid al-adha' is sunnah & not wajib
28. a woman whose marriage ended in khula only has one month of iddah
29. the khula is not considered a divorce and the couple can remarry after a khula
@@MuslimMindsUS THIER more lenient in music than for example the hanafis (still think it’s haram btw)
@@AGENTOfMKA No all four madahib strictly forbid all music except the duff only on eid and weddings
All 4 schools are from ahlus Sunnah alhamdulilah. For a laymen like me I found hanbali the easiest because it is very straightforward
great video but you should have added druze and alawites
Why is the sound so weird?
Wouldn't recommend this video to non-Muslims as it's heavily Sunni biased, like systematically providing counter-arguments for shia beliefs.
Yea because it’s clearly a false belief. Everyone stays or accepts the Sunni paradigm while people leave Shi’ism. It goes against sound reason and the fitarh.
@@ozone2126 Then title the video "a criticism of Shia beliefs" or something.
I know plenty who left Sunnism and became Shia-I myself left Sunnism and converted Mu'tazilism...
There are many sunnis who left sunni Islam for shia even scholars, what's your point lmao
Very cool
Thanks TexanNative!
The problem in the video is that many of the things that your attributing to certain schools are in their counterparts, you should of done more research
But thank you for your efforts.
Assalamualaikum Akhi, we attempted to highlight what those schools were most known for. Other school may definitely have had those same points, however some are known more for a speciality than others
@@MuslimMindsUS وعليكم السلام ورحمة الله وبركاته that’s understandable in some points, but things like ijmaa and qiyas and shafii madhab.. not really something special to them, qiyas is more emphasized in hanafi fiqh and everyone except dhahiri school use it a lot, also ijmaa is used by all school so not really a shafii thing.
Btw what denomination you choose
You guys forgot about Ibadis!

There is no such thing as Wahhabism
Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab did not invent a new Religious doctrine , he was Hanbali and did not invent something called Wahhabism. He was only spreading Sunnism in Arabia and fighting Sufism.
Alhamdulillah Proud to be Sunni Hanafi Barelvi Muslim and also follow Sufi Order
Muhammad ibn Abdul Wahhab hated the Hanbali madhab after he realized they believed in tawassul and did not believe in destroying Jannatul Baqi. Leave the cult of Anthropomorphism.

Why don't all Islam denominations accept the Quran as being a creation (not eternal), wouldnt it fit better with the concept of Tawheed? If the Quran is uncreated, that would seem like the Quran itself is divine no?
Qur'an is Allah's word which is eternal as its an attribute of Allah like His mercy, knowledge, wisdom, and power
This was actually a very clear and easy to understand video thank you for explaining
I saw your video on the Christian denominations and I would like to see your guys honest opinion and react to this song please

Thank-you and hope you had a good Ramadan
5:44 some Shias believe this.
very clear pro-sunni video but overall pretty good
That's what every shia say 🙄
@HalalKebabMuncher it is a baseless sect. If not provide the proof then
@@That_dawg420 wuts ur prove? your comment is baseless lifeless and stupidity of climax.
He said he was pro-sunni because Muslims mind didn't use Shia hadith interpretation to give its overview. He only used Sunni interpretation. Secondly the video needs to be short and concise and his views were mostly solely based upon what sunni believed no shia comment.
I do not hate sunni, I have great sunni friends. We both are Muslims with minor differences and believe in core beliefs of Islam. How about you replace your keyterm *baseless* with something more pleasant :D
Yes correct
Mu'tazila are not sunni and that is the opinion of all classical scholars of ahlus sunnah wal jamaah
A lot of theee are in crusader kings 3 i never knew what thry stood for
Lol glad you understand now 🤣
@MuslimMindsUS oh and as a black man I'm sorry some of us have twisted your faith. The stuff that comes black nationalist and hoteps is awful
Just one thing: Shias (especially twelvers) are not considered muslim
Reason?
@@mouhmmedadil9782 cursing the Sahabah takes you out of the fold of islam
@@muhammadabdurahman3121 what about the sahaba that cursed each other?
@@destroylonely428 they literally mended relationship and there so much Daleel for that. And let’s say they didn’t, the prophet Muhammad (SAWA) literally confirmed that the sahabah have Allah on their side and that Allah was pleased with them. There are literally 10 sahabah that are confirmed jannah and from them, 4 are cursed by the rawafidh. Even when Uthman (RA) was getting attacked, Imam Ali (AS) asked his followers to defend him. Wallahi if the original Shia of Ali were alive today, they would be from Ahlul Sunnah
where in the Quran does it say "whoever curses the sahaba is a kafir"?
Deobandi vs Barelvi ❤️🔥❤️🔥
Alhamdulillah Proud to be Sunni Hanafi Barelvi Muslim and also follow Sufi Order ❤❤❤
Missing ibadis lol
This explanation is based on the Sunni view and you have defined Shia belief with a wrong definition, not what they really are.
The belief in Muhammad's succession is a purely political issue in the Sunni view, not in Shia belief. Because Muhammad was not an ordinary king for the issue of choosing his successor to be a purely political issue.
You should really be ashamed, at least you would have read a reputable Shia belief book and then produced a video.

Y´all make it so complicated..... We have 1 God and the Quran.... That´s the end of it. If you say ¨I´m not a sunni or shia but a muslim, we should follow quran and the sunnah ☺¨ congratulations, you are a sunni....
Reject anything besides the word of God and let´s become Muslims again 🤍
Clearly, this video was created with a sunni preference. Although, not like I can blame you lol. Still, the attempts for neutrality were appreciated.

نكتة علم المثليين غير لائقة الله يصلحك
remember that sects are harram.
Most of the groups covered aren’t really “sects” as we understand in English or describing other faiths, just minor differences in rituals that’s do not effect the fundamentals
That’s why the main distinction we included is shiaism as it moves past just standard differences of opinions
@@MuslimMindsUS same building blocks just different interpretation... I agree with you
@MuslimMindsUS Thats objectively false.
Shiaites (atleast the twelfth ones, which are the majority) hit themselves with chains on the begining to the end of muharram. they also pray on rocks. combine their prayers and their hijri calender is somehow a day off.
some of the sufis dance in the mosques. and sing to "allah allah" while wobbling their heads. they believe wudu gives them special powers or something.
the ahmadiyya have a whole new prophet somehow DESPITE the quran clearly stating that there wont be a new prophet after prophet muhammad s.a.w
call them whatever you want. theres no shia muslim or sunni muslim or whatever muslim...theres only muslim and kaffir. there is no gray area. i would highly suggest you educate yourself on the dangers of the rawafidh and the khawarij lest you may be preyed as the ignorant
@@hixark4502 As a 12er, I will say.... You have absolutely 0 understanding of Shia Islam. You are replying heavily in regards of stereotypes bud... That chain thing is only down by small small minority like 5% of Shai. [It's cultural] Its fr banned in Iran-
Also, what do you mean by worshipping on stone? It's made out of clay, when we prostate we keep our heads on Earth [soil] not something that is human-made or organic...
Listening to you makes me wonder may Allah guide you out of the hatred that is consuming you
@@hixark4502 *Educate yourself* I would say to you rather you saying to Muslim minds.... Do you know Khawarji were the enemies of Shia? They murdered Imam Ali [as]
Khawarji don't exist today, the only one who exist is the off shoot branch Ibadi in Oman......
Khawajis are Muslims extremist who believe in violence..... If I rem correctly that's suppose to be ISIS who call themselves Sunni while kill and murd Muslims [mostly Shia].....
As a Shia I don't believe ISIS should represent Sunnis, they are not. I have sunni friends and they are best of ppl....
The shias do not believe Imam Ali (as) should have been elected as the leader of the ummah, we believe he was chosen by God, as the Prophet DID INFACT EXPLICITLY state this during Ghadeer, atleast do correct research
He did in fact explicitly say mawla (مولاه), which can mean 'patron', 'master', 'leader', or 'friend' in arabic. The Shi'as interpret it as "leader" while Sunnis see it as "friend", that's it.
@@grotesqburlesk yea the Prophet of Allah (swt) just decided to make thousands of people wait in the hot dessert burning sun to tell them someone he’s with 24/7 is his friend???? As if they didn’t already know. The prophet didn’t even leave a city of Muslims to go to another without choosing someone to be in charge of them, so him leaving his life, just HOPING the Muslims would elect a good leader is really funny concept. There’s so many more indicators to this I really urge you to look into history. Also the primary meaning of mawla is master/ leader, and the Prophet started that speech out by saying “Do I not have more authority over you than yourselves”, then said “whoever I am the maula of, Ali is his maula”- confirming this maula is one of authority.

I like you guys and iv been watching your videos from time to time. Your are pretty knowledgeable for your age and as someone about same age it is nice to see, but these "im right, you are wrong" leads nowhere. I know that one of your main reasons not to believe in Bible is belief that bible is corrupted. But please reconsider that it isnt just written text ,there were thousands of martyrs from first centuries. How is it possible all of them couldnt remember two simple sentences (about Christ divinity) but nevertheless they laid their lives for them! Are all of them insane? This is just one of many problems with that theory but almost no one talks about this, especially western preachers who forget or simply ignore first 15 or even more centuries of the Church... It is so sad, please take this in consideration. Wish you all the best and may the Lord finish his work with you :)
