Bismillah
Alright, Alhamdulelah we can resume what has been put on hold for a while.
All is good from Allah.
Karbala first off Alhamdulelah i m not taking the merit and advantage of Allah - being a native Arabic speaker - for granted. Lately I started even realising the major blessing more and more.
Regarding the word Shia as you quoted it in the noble Ayahs, to build on what my brother fateh said, it is used to refer to people who are on the Deen of the other person like the case of Ibraheem who was on the path of Nuh, and the same applies for Mussa. Thus, if u apply this concept to the hadeeth which was mistakenly taken out of context, it is impossible that the Messenger prayer and peace be upon him would be meaning that those who are on the religion of Ali shall enter jannah, but he should rather mean those who are following his religion or more to say Islam according to Quran and Sunnah. Sunnah as a whole. In such case you are attibuting yourself to Ali rather than calling yourself a muslim which is actually grave if u think about it, like Buddihst calling themselves so after Buddha and other groups called after the founders.
Right now I will stop here INsh a Allah will come back for more on that particular hadeeth.
Karbala btw, it was not a single incident that I observed Shia women praying Fajr and Asr sunnah as I explained. Sobhan Allah it was a recurrent observation I had either in medina or mecca for several times. I mean it was a universal practice among them. I didnt want to jump from one point to another. But they also dont pray behind the Imam I mean they dont attach to the line and they dont follow the Imam. But to be precise those are the Iranians.
Karbla what about praying on the Turba Husainyah????? why is it a must that shia carry a small stone made of the dust of Karbala? how far this is essential in perfroming prayer?
