    • Salam this is a more in-depth article sharing narrations in some rulings https://erfan.ir/english/amp38651.html
    • Salam here is a list of rulings on these matters by one of our great late scholars https://www.alhakeem.com/en/questions/1021
    • Salam The position of Shia Scholars is that there is no prophet or messenger after a Rasul Allah sawa, and that revelation stopped with him. There is discussion on what the level of interaction between the rest of the 14 and the angels are, but it is not Revelation in the same sense is with the prophet. The remaining 13 have a degree of knowledge by permission of the Lord of the unseen, and they do have knowledge of the future and what will happen, but this is through their divine connection and it’s much more discussed with much more slightly different views than the beginning of the discussion they’re not appropriate or have enough time to list here Suffice of to say whatever the 14 say is the word of Allah himself as per chapter 53 in numerous narrations if it, but the narration, the verses are clear, the narrations need to be verified Therefore, the belief of our school is that anyone claiming their visions or revelations after the holy prophet, peace and lessons be upon him is a liar. Many narrations indicate that this is a Capital offense in a form of witchcraft and sorcery.   Because usually people claim these type of visions to mislead people to miss guide them to call them to themselves to feel special to cause mischief or to take some financial advantage The other option is that many of these men might’ve been what we now called schizophrenic and mentally unwell A lot of these predictions are vague unclear and can be interpreted so many ways and so many times We find that even with some narrations that are sound you can’t really say for sure into a bunch of other things happen if it’s happened like the narration, a dictator will be killed in Egypt and the people revolt. Well this has happened numerous times unfortunately we always have dictators in our countries so very hard to pin down. Another possibility is they could get some kind of information from the gym or other beans, but having communion with such beans and using them for information is in permissible The narrations are clear that one who visits a fortune teller for information. Their prayers are not accepted for 40 days so we should be cautious because listening to reading these prophecies as well as horoscopes could fall into that category. They may have some right information. They may have some wrong information but the position of our School list to ignore them and disbelief them into curse, the astrologist, sorcerers, witches and soothsayers collectively Wallahu Alam
    • Salam You’re overthinking this in a number of the posts. His father taught Marxist philosophy at a college. His mother is a filmmaker. His mother and wife do not cover. He’s a Muslim by identity and most probably a degree of practice. I was just in New York if you ask the store owners and car people what time salon is the ones under 40 don’t know they’re probably thinking oh crap that white guy with a turban and a cloak just asked me an important question. Gotta pretend to know I know there’s like a prayer we eat after in that one month I’m not exaggerating. That’s how bad it’s gotten we went from enclaves to this.    I don’t even know that his family was associated with Sijny in New York, supposedly they were but no one I know who goes there, remembers them ever coming there Nobody remembers him or his family attending the Friday. Prayers anywhere there no one I’ve talked to remember seeing them attend war events, or fast breaking event and I’m not saying this to smear or slander back bite the brother I’m just looking at the reality of the youth and how they connect with their Islam in New York, which is radically different than when I lived there, but you had people like that when I lived, there weren’t part of the religious revival after 911  Some of the people that know him and work with him are the very liberal Muslim groups that are on the college campus and work with other groups for identity issues He most probably believes in a two state solution with a Jewish state in a Palestinian state living in peace. I do not think someone likes him. This position is wipe Israel off the map and give all the land back to the original Arab inhabitants. Brother and this is not directed at you personally people want too much He has some good economic ideas. He has some good foreign policy ideas. His ideas are a lot better than the opposition. I don’t think he’s doing pie dissimulation  Taqiyah he probably has heard the word. Could he give an accurate definition insight the references I highly doubt it. The landscape of Islam has changed so much that this guy’s represents a major portion of the thinking of Muslims under 40 there. even at the height of Islamic power in the 80s 90s and up until the mid 2000s you had people like this and my wife grew up in an enclave where they basically lived under Islamic law. Her cousin is 2 miles down the road didn’t even know and this one branch of the family the Aunt married in American Muslim. They didn’t even know that you couldn’t show your ears cause you had earrings they would wear hijab with their ears sticking out to show their earrings and that’s 2 Miles at the height of the leaders power in the 80s  So we just have to take what we can get sometimes I don’t know what this brother really knows. I don’t know what his intentions are. We can surmise his level of practice and knowledge but did you say he’s either a Zionist or in deep dissimulation is probably incorrect He’s a religious person by a degree of practice and identity who is raised with a Marxist philosophy who who leans social is Democrat he makes Trump angry. He makes the children of Yazid angry he has better policies than the other two had. Let’s just take what we can get and pray it turns out well. wallahu Alam  also, a sidenote, the system may be rotten into the core, but no system is going to be good until the last luminary returns. Even the best systems are imperfect and have massive amounts of problems and if you haven’t seen revolution and people dying in the streets, it’s not a fun thing to experience so somebody trying to change the system from within is better for all the oppressed people, disabled, elderly women, mothers with children, vulnerable people who won’t be able to fight will be subject to the people who are fighting revolution without a plan is why the Middle East is in chaos all the time a large portion of why there are other factors because there’s never any organized plan for after you overthrow the dictator. Iran had a plan that’s why you’re Ron did better.
    • Hes objectivley better, but what baffles me is why he thinks he can change the system from within when it's extreemly rotten to the core, it will change him for the worse if anything and he is being set up to fail from the start.    On one hand he could have joined a third party, but that would have been a huge uphill battle, but he could have leveraged the rise of populism to his advantage to call out what both parties are. On the other hand the democrat party gives him a pedistal as it's an established party, but it's extreemly corrupt, there is simply no changing it. If he goes too far, the many rich corporations/lobbies influencing the country will simply do something horrible to him or smear him to high heavens through media outlets to keep him in check.
