Egypt Grand Mufti: It is permissible to use Shii Jurisprudence?

It is an article of faith of Shii brothers and sisters to believe in the finality of the Prophethood of Blessed Muhammad al-Mustafa SAW and to love, honour and respect him and his pure AhlulBayt and his select companions.

More than that they are not of the covenant breakers who rejected the injunctions of the Quran in the form of Ayat-e-Mawadat or Ayat-e-Velayat. They have internalised the Wilayah concept (in the form of Imamat) as was granted by Allah SWT and his Blessed Messenger at Ghadeer.

May all whose hearts have accepted Wilayah be blessed through their love.

As for the whether the Shii need recognition of the Egyptian Mufti....I agree the Nejdi cult followers that it is irreleveant whether he accepts the fiqh of Imam al Jafar Sadiq. The Blessed Imam is a direct decendent of the Blessed Prophet SAW and does not need anyone's approval. He was the teacher of Abu Hanifa and Muhammad ibn Idris al-Shafi΄i.

BTW do people even know who founded Al Azhar?

i don't follow a sheikh just because he is a sheikh.

his opinion is wrong, he isn't my prophet(as) he isn't aslan talking based on quran and sunnah here. where is his proof? show me something which can convince me, how come shiaa and sunni agree while shiaa mock some sunni books? and some even shiaa hate the sahaba(Ra) who narrated most of the ahadith???

i am not saying that we should take shiaa as enemies, i only take the them as enemies when they insult my beliefs, nways i believe in Tolerance not unity.

also all the imams of the madhabs said that when they make mistakes then we shouldn't follow them. and i will take this rule on this sheikh.

no offense to shiaa, but yesterday i just opened a shiaa site after many years and i didn't like at all what they teach. even in that site they were talking about a subject and they put the sunni point of view then the shiaa one, soooo they even admit it. so either this sheikh was teaching egyptians to love shiaa through this way for POLITICS ways against enemies or it is a courtesy.

'' because there is not any difference between Sunni and Shia.''

that's 100% wrong....we have so much point to disagree on.

i don't deny that there some fatwa exactly the same between shiaa and sunni but they dont agree in all things that's for sure.

that's my opinion. yala Salam.

@ Truth seeker, yes we all know who founded Al Azhar univeristy, it was the Fatimite Shia, the SAME shia who fought AGAINST saleh udenn Al Ayubi, the SAME shia that fought alongside and supported the crusaders.

That is WHY the muslims of Ahlus sunnah wal Jamah, drove out the munafiqs from the sorrounding area, because as usual the shia sided with crusaders and fought against the muslims. So egypt became conquered by Ahlusunnah.

Alhamdulilah.

@slave- you said "Shias have totally different rules of marriage, prayer, fasting, Hajj, funerals, divorce, dowry etc so how could a Muslim country use Shia Jurisprudence?"

Can you prove that to me?

2:111 qul hatoo burhanakum in kuntum sadiqeena

2:111 Say: "Produce your proof if ye are truthful."

____________

@Diamant- lol Imam Shafi aint infalliable

Bye bye

@Slave- no offence, but that is the most ignorant edit I ever got from a Sunni.

Let me tell you somethings that you don't know

Muta is not the only kinda marrige in Shia Islam, and Sunni marriages do have Shirk in it, not all sunni marriages are according to Islam, trust me I have many sunni friends and I have seen all the other functions and Music in the wedding.

Can you prove me that Shias don't pray at mosque and pray at Imam Barga?

Ibn 'Abbas reported that the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) combined the noon prayer with the afternoon prayer and the sunset prayer with the 'Isha' prayer in Medina without being in a state of danger or rainfall. And in the hadith transmitted by Waki' (the words are):" I said to Ibn 'Abbas: What prompted him to do that? He said: So that his (Prophet's) Ummah should not be put to (unnecessary) hardship."

Sahih Muslim Book 004, Number 1520

you didn't mention about Hajj?

And please edit with exact proves next time.

2:111 Say: "Produce your PROOF if ye are truthful."

@Diamant- lol next time when you edit, only do it when you have something good to say, I notice you always talk crap in your edits.

just giving you a friendly advice :)

@ women in burqa

"There are no reliable figures for Egypt's Shiite population. According to a US State Department report on religious freedom published in 2006, they account for less than one percent of the country's 73 million inhabitants."

In July 1959, Mahmoud Shaltut, then Grand Imam of Al-Azhar, issued a historic statement recognizing the Ja'fari or Imami (Twelver) Shiite madhhab as an authentic Islamic legal tradition.

HAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAA@ wat the Nomad said!

shie jurisprudence over my dead body

leon of shaytan down below

_u guys break ur fasts later than the Muslims do

_u combine or at least u r allowed to combine prayers

_ u allow mut'a after it was disallowed destroying the sanctity of marriage and transgressing the laws of Allaah and His Rasool

_your hajj well here u do not have much of a choice because you have to follow us since we are the guardians of the AL Haramain bini'mattillaah!

You people would have worshiped the graves of the ahyl bait if we didn't protect their sanctity from ur shirk!

go n read ur khomani sisteni authored books and quit actin innocent

►its a fatwa we are not bind to it nor to the shcolar himself

►not all sunni are shafi'i

►he aint infallible,proof his fatwa !

►let's take a look what imam Ash-Shafi'i said

a- "I have not seen among the heretics a people more famous for falsehood than the Raafidi* Shia."

b- "Narrate knowledge from everyone you meet except for the raafidi* Shia, because they invent ahadith and adopt them as part of their religion."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

i think now we can say bye bye to this fatwa

~~~~

EDIT:

@omer: lol exactly my point i just posted his comment for those who follow the shafi'i school,plz think before u edit to me

~~~~

EDIT:

@leon: did u just understand a joke that u've been told last year ?? lol cz that could be the only reason for ur loling unless ur craziness symptoms are back again.

hun try to make more sense in ur edit instead of ur parroting thing ;)

~~~~

EDIT:

@leon: when dealing with shitheads like u,one must make his best to help u get the message,me resolving to "crap" is essentiel so u chimp can understand what i wrote,after all u should be familiar with it :)

1. Fatwa does not mean Verdict. It means Opinion. Everyone is allowed to have opinions.

2. The opinion should not go against established Islamic rules.

3. Shias have totally different rules of marriage, prayer, fasting, Hajj, funerals, divorce, dowry etc so how could a Muslim country use Shia Jurisprudence?

4. Egypt is a Shia majority country. So, I am not shockked.

@ Leon: Here is your reply.

Shia marriage: Muta (temporary relation). Dowry given by Bride's father (especailly in my country). Mehndi celebrations. (an extra function based on Shirk that if the Hina i.e. Mehndi gives dark color, the marriage will last long).

Muslim marriage: Honest Wedlock with out setting time period yet divorce is always an option but not compulsory. No concept of temporary relation. Dower given by Groom to Bride. All things are arranged by Groom. No Mehndi, direct Walimah.

Shia Fast: Sohoor ends 15-30 minutes before Muslim Sohoor. Iftar starts 15-30 minutes after Muslims' iftar.

Shia Prayer: 3 times a day. Prayed in Imam Bargah (Court of Imam not court of Allah.)

Muslim prayer: 5 times a day in Masjid which are only fo Allah.

Shia funerals: Morning till 10-40 days, death anniversaries. Arranging dinners at 3rd, 7th, 10, 40 day of death.

Muslim funerals: Pray for Dead (janazah). Morning till three days except widow. No death anniversary. No dinner.

Shia divorce: 3 times divorce at same time is counted 3 divorces.

Muslims have a long criteria for divorce.

so whats the question ? yes there is no major difference between Shia and Sunni ,we pray to the one GOD ,we believe in the same Prophet ,we believe in heaven and hell so we are muslims .Islam protect every muslims despite whether he is Shia or Sunni.

remember you are Musilms and Islam ordered you to be a union

==Edi== t (For Slave to Allah )

"Shia divorce: 3 times divorce at same time is counted 3 divorces." !!!!! who said that ????

if you don't sure then don't say

I am sure you know AL_SISTANI (Aytallah Alodmaa ) lets see what he said in divorce "من اقسام الطلاق البدعي ـ كما مر ـ طلاق الثلاث، اما مرسلاً بان يقول: (هي طالق ثلاثاً)، واما ولاءً بان يكرر صيغة الطلاق ثلاث مرات كأن يقول: (هي طالق، هي طالق، هي طالق) من دون تخلّل رجعة في البين قاصداً تعدد الطلاق. وفي النحو الثاني يقع الطلاق واحداً ويلغى الآخران، واما في النحو الاَوّل فان اراد به ما هو ظاهره من ايقاع ثلاث طلقات فالاَظهر بطلانه وعدم وقوع طلاق به اصلاً، وكذا إذا قصد به ايقاع البينونة الحاصلة بالطلاق ثلاث مرات اي الموجبة للحرمة حتى تنكح زوجاً غيره، واما إذا اراد ايقاع الطلاق بقوله: هي طالق، اولاً ثم اعتباره بمثابة ثلاث طلقات بقوله: (ثلاثاً) ثانياً ـ بأن احتوت هذه الكلمة انشاءً مستقلاً عن انشاء الطلاق قبلها بقوله: (هي طالق) ـ فالظاهر وقوع طلاق واحد به.

if you want translation it says three times divorces at the same time is counted as one divorce

you can check it out if you don't believe http://www.sistani.org/local.php?modules=nav&nid=2...

and you will see his picture in it . if you don't know then don't speak

A more important question, is it permissible to ask fatwa to Ali Goma?

Egyption govt. servants have not earned any credibility in Islamic world. They allow almost everything their govt. wants to allow.
