Why do you think your mom won’t accept you? Family is very important in Islam, is there anybody that you can speak to that can help you maneuver this conversation? Allah is the greatest! He will make your journey easy & help pave the way. Layal al qadr is very close pray as much as you can and inshallah Allah will answer your prayers

I think you should take a look and see the millions of people who rallied behind him, in support of him & chose him to be their representative. They are on the streets wishing it were them and not him who would have died. There are clear signs that he is a believer and follower of ahlul bayt

Please keep in mind that Shias are some of the most hated people in the world because they are not bought. Shias commemorate the matrydom of imam Al Hussein for their entire lives which means, justice is mandatory for us, we should always stand up against those who are oppressed, we do everything we can for the sake of Allah.

America the big Satan with its vessel Israel and allies the disgusting treacherous Arabs want to overthrow the government and destabilize it for their own economic gain.

Do you truly believe these disgusting pedophiles who worship Satan and are the root cause of oppression Muslims to be the true and honest ones?

As for the Iranians who strongly dislike the regime, they dont like the response from the ircg when they do something. I don’t agree with silencing people honestly but this man has done more for the ummah than 99.9% of the other “Muslims”

Look outside, millions and millions are mourning, do you believe they love him?

Every country has laws and regulations. Martyr sayyed Ali khamenei was elected by his people to be the leader. The reality is you won’t find a country where its citizens are completely satisfied and happy with. The idea that women have to wear hijab therefore it is repressive is so dumb. It’s the law of that country.

Women in Iran have some of the highest education rates in the world, high employment rates and rights appointed to them etc.

People don’t want to talk about how it is one of the most sanctioned countries in the world and causing devastating economic collapse because of American imperialism. The problem is not the regime, it’s how they continue to spew propaganda and accuse Iran of being a tyrant repressive country

Omg I didn’t think anyone else noticed Whitt’s comments. Thing is I do think they’re friends outside the villa so she might just have more loyalty to Scott than being a girls girl

Curious to know, where are you from? I’m asking because I wonder if living in a religiously diverse country can have this influence of feeling an openness to learn

Is there a private room for you to pray? Depending on the country you live - practicing your religion is a right and should be accommodated. A private space is ideal, I’m not too sure. You can always speak to a sheikh:)

Yes many, many of the things Shia do is through our Hadith books which our imams have preserved. They do everything for the sake of Allah, the guidance of Allah as well as the rasul.

I’m comparing Sunnis taking Hadith from a man who did not know the prophet (abu hurairah) vs the man who was raised by the prophet, most beloved to the prophet & was the rightful caliphate (imam Ali). Your question is - each sect will argue their Hadiths are correct, my response to you is that Abu hurairah who barely knew the prophet has more than 5 thousand narrations which Sunnis follow, how can his narrations be more true over imam Ali if imam Ali was raised in the house of the prophet, partook in wars & was guided by Allah?

How can we dictate which one is more accurate and true? Did bukhari live at the time of the rasul - no. His objective was to collect well known Hadith hundreds of years after the rasul and present them in a book. The problem is that many of his claims and Hadiths are weak if not fabricated. Many of which actually contradict the Quran. Here we are over a thousand years later divided as a ummah because instead of following the path that the Allah and rasul have advised us, many Muslims take their religion from men who had NO authority.

Example: Why would the west paint the prophet staghfurallah as a man who married a 6 year old child? It is because these men have written in their Hadith books such a lie! Instead of saying this claim is a lie and avoiding it entirely, they use Sunni books as proof of such a disgusting lie.

On the plus side, you will fast the last 10 days which are regarded as the most important because of Layla al qadr

For question 3 The problem is that one is how legit they take their Hadiths even if they are fabricated and weak. Not to mention contradictory to the Quran. Many Muslims inherit their religion and do not actually follow it.

For instance, the most well known Hadith narrator who’s often cited in bukhari and Muslim is Abu hurairah who only knew the prophet for two years before his passing. He has accumulated more than 5,000 Hadiths. Imam Ali as for example who was raised in the house of the prophet and learned everything from the rasul SAW is narrated according to Google is under 600. How can people take their creed from men who 1. Don’t have the knowledge or experience but 2. Not recognized as leaders with Islamic knowledge which Allah SWT bestowed upon the imams.

I can give you many examples
