“Ismail bin Abbas Hashimi narrates: I went to Imam
Muhammad Taqi (a) on the day of Eid and complained to him of
indigence. At that time he was on the prayer mat. He lifted a
corner of the prayer mat and removed a piece of gold from the
ground below and gave it to me…”
Repugnant Dawah. Absolutely devoid of wisdom. Just a bunch of kids rage baiting at this point. Our Deen is FILLED with injunctions of mercy to animals. To a muslim with piety and sapience this wouldve been a perfect window to educate the man and dispel some misconceptions.
There is a growing tendency to make Shiʿism something palatable to everyone—as though its teachings must be softened or repackaged in order to be accepted.
But the fact of the matter is: Shiʿism is not for everyone and not everything in Shiʿism is to be given to every Shiʿa.
Our Master, Abū Jaʿfar al-Bāqir عليه السلام, gives a principle:
“Indeed, this discourse of yours (the discourse from the Imam) makes the hearts of men recoil from it. So whoever accepts it, give him more of it; and whoever rejects it, leave him alone.”
إنّ حديثكم هذا لتشمئزّ منه قلوب الرجال فانبذوه إليهم نبذاً، فمن أقرّ به فزيدوه، ومن أنكر فذروه،
The point is not to force people to accept what they find difficult. The Imām’s instruction is precisely the opposite: those who accept it should be given more, while those who reject it should be left alone.
@huruufi@lakp0shtsabz How is it not. Even assuming if khomeieni did possess karamaat, to which he probably didn’t, having your face on the moon is outrageous. Just the name of imam ali is written on the moon and you think khomeineis whole face was on there?
"Fatimiyah is just matter of history not creed"
Imam al-Ṣādiq has said:
"Whoever does not recognize the evil of what was done to us — our being wronged, the loss of our right, and what befell us — is a partner of the one who did this to us in what was perpetrated against us.”
@huruufi@shia_aliakbar Lol this would just end in an agreement to disagree trust me. Also I don’t really care for the iranian constitution. But anyways I do believe the faqih has a wilayah to an extent. Regarding the extent of it I think the modern version takes it to a propagandist level
