Wa alaykom salam Only if you know for certain that something has become najis otherwise we rule it as pure upon the principle of taharat. If you know that something has become najis and you doubt if it is pure or not it is ruled as najis upon the principle of istishab. Otherwise if there is no knowledge of it being najis it is ruled as pure
 Also people who are in the state of janabah do not transfer najasat only semen while wet, and wetness on dog for examples such as saliva or wet body parts or even  wet hair of dog.

Salam we don’t have such story in Shia narrations, it comes from Sunni sources that are very inaccurate specially about cleanness & sexual acts & Sunni sources fabricated many ignorant era practices about cleanness & sexual acts  in name Prophet Muhammad (pbu)
& this story looks very irrational because Prophet Muhammad (pbu) always we’re using the most cleanest  cloths & garments for praying . 

Salam Fadak wasn’t inheritance , it was given by order of Allah by Prophet (pbu) to Lady Fatima (sa) as worldly reward of mother of believers Lady Khadijah (sa) for her economic sacrifice for spread of Islam & was from ‘Anfal’ that Allah (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) said in Qur'an clearly that only belongs to Prophet Muhammad (pbu) that he gifted by order of Allah (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) to her daughter ,the act of first caliph was stealing property of Lady Fatima (عليه السلام) by force & using a fabricated Hadith by himself that before confrontation before Lady Fatima (sa) nobody even Abuhuraira wasn’t aware from the Abubakr Hadith or something similar like this that later Imam Kazim (عليه السلام) described borders of it as whole of Islamic land that was under command of Abbasid caliph that was main motivation for martyrdom of Imam Kadhim (عليه السلام) that his word doesn’t spread in Islamic society.

No I started in late highschool using some of the books I recommended and studied largely on my own except for tuhfah al-sanniyya which I studied in mubahathāt over the course of a few months last year with a friend who'd done it before. It's very possible to study Arabic on your own and be successful (if I am, surely other people are though), it's a war of attrition, as a friend put it.

Salams
This is an excellent book series for anyone wishing to come out speaking Arabic (or Modern Standard and Classical Arabic) with a high intermediate proficiency. I do prefer the newer edition of the book in 7 (short) books rather than 3 (long) books plus supplementary materials (answer keys), it was a lot more difficult for a student studying on his own and the new edition is better if you're on your own: https://archive.org/details/DrV.AbdurRahim.MadinahArabicReader
 
Other books I like, have used myself, or have considered teaching with:
Ebrahim Muhammad's From the Treasures of Arabic Morphology -- A text primarily dedicated to teaching Classical Arabic's verbal morphology (though it does contain essential information on nominal morphology). It's a good a as any as a first text. Schulz, Krahl and Reuschel's Standard Arabic: an elementary-intermediate course (Cambridge) -- Keep in mind that this text is a bit dense but very thorough and filled with helpful exercises and a lot of vocabulary. The course has a focus on teaching Modern Standard Arabic (though any good book teaching MSA will teach you Classical as well), the final reading is from a classical grammatical text from the medieval period. Wightwick and Gaafar's Arabic Verb Tenses (McGraw Hill) -- This only concerns itself with you learning MSA, but it'll teach you verbs very well. There's two other works on Arabic vocabulary and on pronouns and prepositions that are also good but this is the best between them. Alan Jone's Arabic through the Qur'an -- An excellent work that'll teach you enough to be able to read the Qur'an (and the hadith though with a dictionary at hand for that) I'm not a fan of how idiomatic his translations can be but he does teach you to translate with style. Wheeler Thackston's Koranic and Classical Arabic (Ibex) -- This is one of my favourite works, it'll teach you Arabic thoroughly and is good to learn Arabic for the first time or to review and consolidate what you've learned. This text also concerns itself primarily with Classical Arabic with a small reader at the end. However it is very heavy on the English grammatical terms (like enclitic, hallow verbs, substantive, etc.) so this might seem intimidating. If you are able to get past that (looking at examples, looking up what the word means, or googling the concept tends to be enough if you're really stuck) then it is a rewarding text. He also has an excellent grammar for Farsi and for Classical Syriac (and two excellent ones found online for Sorani and Kurmanji Kurdish). Sayyid Muhammad-Reza Tabatabai's Sarf-e Sadeh -- This work is concerned with teaching Arabic morphology (the section on the morphology of verbs is in Farsi and the section of morphology of nouns is in Arabic), it's both an excellent study text and reference grammar, you should study it with the associated workbook that's also been published. Probably the best work to develop a very strong understanding of Classical Arabic morphology. Tashil al-Nahw -- Despite the Arabic name it is, in fact, written in English. It's a book best suited for reviewing syntax (nahw) of classical Arabic after you've learned it once or for study with a teacher. And this should probably be used in tandem with or after studying something like Tuhfah al-Sanniyya. A New Arabic Grammar of the Written Language, by Haywoord and Nahmad. A beautifully written text which will give you a solid understanding of MSA and a good foundation for reading Classical texts. I'd recommend using this text with a teacher or using it to consolidate what you've learned if you're on your own. Some Arabic Grammars written in Arabic:
Shadha al-Urf -- An Arabic guide to morphology (sarf). al-Hidayah fi l-Nahw -- An Arabic guide to syntax (nahw), in my opinion the best edition is Hasan Shirafkan's which I believe is commonly used in Qom these days.  Tuhfah al-Saniyya fi Sharh Muqaddimah al-Ajurumiyya -- A beginner to intermediate grammar, this will give you an excellent understanding of how Arabic syntax works. Some Arabic Reference Grammars in English:
Joyce Akesson's The Basics and Intricacies of Arabic Morphology -- Don't let the name fool you, this text isn't a student grammar but a reference grammar of Arabic morphology. Ali Abdul-Rasheed's al-Mujaz fi l-Tasrif -- The name might be Arabic but this text is written in good English, it's an excellent reference work for both the morphology of verbs and nouns, and you'd do well to use it when studying Sarf-e Sadeh.  Wright's Arabic Grammar -- A classic text which in my opinion hasn't been surpassed Fischer's A Grammar of Classical Arabic -- Originally written in German and demonstrates German diligence, it's an excellent grammar and a text also yet to be surpassed. Brill's Encyclopedia of Arabic Language and Linguistics -- This is an encyclopedia and needs to be understood as that, not as a text to learn Arabic using. Some advance study texts and reference grammars written in Arabic:
Sharh Qatr al-Nida wa Bal al-Sada Sharh ibn Aqeel ala l-Alfiya -- Arguably the most important commentary on the al-Alfiya of Malik. Sharh al-Suyuti ala l-Alfiya Sharh al-Ashmuni ala l-Alfiya Sharh al-Shatibi ala l-Alfiya Mughni al-Labib -- It also has a summarized and Shia-fied version known as Mughni al-Adib (poetry is replaced with hadiths and quotes from Nahjul Balagha). Rawdhah al-Bahiyyah Sibawayh's al-Kitab -- Written by the founder of the Basran school of Arabic grammar and one of the most major grammarians in the history of the Arabic language. al-Astarabadi's Sharh al-Shafiya -- One of the most important reference works on morphology. al-Astarabadi's Sharh al-Kafiya -- One of the most important reference works on Nahw. This and the previous one give a near complete and exhaustive treatment of their respective subjects. Majmu'ah al-Sarf wa l-Nahw wa l-I'rab -- An Arabic encyclopedia of Arabic grammar. Mu'jam Tasrif al-Af'al al-Arabiyyah -- An amazing work written by a Lebanese Christian conjugating hundreds of different types and categories of verbs, it's an excellent reference (there's an English equivalent known as Barron's 501 Arabic Verbs I saw in a bookstore once, though didn't buy since it's not nearly as good as this Arabic work).  Readers and Annotated Works to be used to help start reading Arabic:
Munther A. Younes's Tales from Kalilah wa Dimna -- It's a graded reader which initially alters the stories but the final ones presented are unaltered. He annotates it rather than translating it and asks you comprehension questions after the stories. David DiMeo's The Travels of Ibn Battuta: A Guided Arabic Reader -- This is an excellent reader which presents the stories (unaltered I believe) with annotations and a bunch of comprehension and reflection questions afterwards to be answered in Arabic and English. Bonebacker and Fishebein's A Reader of Classical Arabic Literature -- This is an annotated Arabic reader presenting unaltered Arabic reading passages from a variety of classical Arabic texts. This will absolutely help develop your reading skills. Arthur Arberry's Arabic Poetry: a primer for students -- This is a text written by one of the best translators of the Qur'an, he collected an excellent anthology of poems in classical Arabic from various authors. This book presents the Arabic text on the right-hand page and the English translation on the left-hand page with annotations at the bottom, largely concerned with the poem's style. Alan Jones' Early Arabic Poetry -- A text which similarly presents an anthology of poems from various poets and translates them annotating the text and explaining difficult vocab as well as explaining the style of the poetry. Finally, Arabic dictionaries:
Hans Wehr's Dictionary of Modern Written Arabic -- This is an absolutely classic work every student ought to have a physical copy of. It's written primarily for MSA but you can get away with using it for Classical Arabic. Edward Lane's Arabic-English Lexicon -- Another classic work that every serious student hopes to own (though the price tends to be eye-watering), this is a work written specifically for Classical Arabic and was written in reference to Classical Arabic dictionaries. Badawi and Abdel-Haleem's Arabic-English Dictionary of Qur'anic Usage (Brill) -- A more recent publication but it is, nevertheless, an excellent tool for the Arabic student. The above works will likely all be found online. You obviously don't need to read all or even most of them, and depending on what your aims are many aren't pertinent, however these are all excellent tools to aid you in your study of Arabic. You'd also do well when you're starting off to use an spaced repetition based system of vocabulary acquisition, Anki is a very good app you can use for Arabic (and any other language you chose to learn afterwards). The best thing to do even as a beginner is to jump into the ocean that is Arabic and read anything, even if most of it goes over your head it'll still help you reinforce what you're learning and remind you why you're learning it. And the more advanced you get, you want to read Shi'i Hadith, Fiqh, and theology works less because they tend to be highly idiosyncratic, idiomatic, and formulaic, and generally refer to history, literature, and early and Sunni Hadith works since they tend to be the least idiosyncratic, idiomatic, and formulaic. As the hadith says: "Whosoever treads a path seeking therein knowledge, God shall make him tread a path towards Eden. The angels surely place their wings before the seeeker of knowledge and are pleased with him. Whoever is in the heavens and on the earths prays for forgiveness for the seeker of knowledge, even the whale in the sea." (من سلك طريقا يطلب فيه علما سلك الله به طريقا إلى الجنة وإن الملائكة لتضع أجنحتها لطالب العلم رضا به وإنه يستغفر لطالب العلم من في السماء ومن في الأرض حتى الحوت في البحر).
Good luck and خسته نباشى.

In a recent thread, the derailment of one topic brought up a light to do with the discrepancies men and women, in both roles and responsibilities as well as character traits of men and women.
My opinion, is why make a big deal and debate, why not recognise and accept, why not follow the roles of women of Ahlul Bayt, both with husbands and independently. They are our role models. 
Men (not all) seem to portray a disliking to the fact that women aren't always submissive. Why make everything so complicated? Just follow the examples of the Imams in the way they treated women.
The sayedas recognised their self worth as women. Why don't you?

I'm no Iranian but just from pictures Iran looks more Islamic then the Shas time. Even if it's "superficial" it's a huge improvement. Hijab is a better platform to build Islam on then mini skirts.

Salam the most difference is becoming Iran a Shia Islamic power without need to foreign powers that before revolution it's power was based on dependability to America

Thanks 
though I know superficially these things but I would like to know details.. there is no doubt that Iran had excelled in almost every field after Islamic revolution..

I am not an expert but I could say that during shah Era huge people don't have water, electricity, education, roads. In few years after Islamic revolution that was done. 

I would like to know comparative study of poverty during Shah and at current time..

Dear Wa alaikum as salam,
First of all, Ghazwa means and accepted by majority of historians a war in which Prophet (saww) himself had took part or supposed to be present personally whereas the wars where Prophet (saww) were no present personally were used to be called Sarriya.
Prophet (saww) departed this world long ago and he is not going to come back to lead Ghazwa in any sense so who is going to lead? That means its just imagination of few hadith collectors who used this hadith to help Muslim invading rulers to conquer the land of Hind and Sindh and nothing more.
Secondly as mentioned by other brothers and sisters, it is not there in any authentic hadith collections of Ahle Sunnah brothers.
Prophet (saww) came to this world not to rule the masses but to guide them to light whereas rulers majority of past and present used wars to expand their rule and not to guide. So, these so called Muslim rulers never helped in true sense for the propagation of Islam.

Unfortunately Amazon does not allow me to set different prices for different countries.
In terms of bringing it lower than $17: As you may know, there are printing costs, royalties, and taxes, so I probably make about $5 per book sale or less. I understand that $5 may be a lot in certain countries, but where I live, it is not enough to buy anything. I still have not "broken even" with this book.
Maybe you could split the costs with someone, or maybe you can tell a local mosque or library to order the book.

Salaam alaykum,
I am very proud to present the culmination of nearly ten years of research on the Twelfth Imam, al-Hujja b. a-Hasan, al-Mahdi, al-Qa'im, the Patron of Time, peace be upon him.

"... an essential compendium concerning the concept of the Mahdi in the English language ... A highly welcomed effort, it is useful for researchers as well as those wanting to understand the idea of the Mahdi within the context of the classical literature on the subject." -- Sayyid Hussain Makke
"... a fresh and insightful approach to the translation of traditions concerning the twelfth Imam and the rising of the Qa’im ... it is my hope that this work will be of benefit to all seekers of knowledge who wish to become further acquainted with the Twelfth Imam (ajt) and his coming." -- Shaykh Vinay Khetia
"A long awaited and much-needed work for the English-speaking world. In an age where skepticism regarding religious beliefs is prevalent, the author has collected many of the reliable traditions on the subject of the Mahdi (a) and has made them readily accessible." -- Sayyid Ali Imran
"The most comprehensive hadith compilation about the twelth Imam present in the English language." -- Dr. Taymaz Tabrizi

1) Iran is the only country in the world that is consistently standing up to the Zionist Regime. 
2) Iran is the only country that is lead by Wilayat Al Faqih
Each one of these requires further explanation. 
First, since the 1967 war, no Arab government has stood up in any real or consistent way to the Zionist Government. This is while Palestinians, their fellow Arabs, are being wiped from the face of the earth in slow motion, before their eyes. Also, Islam's third Holiest site, Masjid Al Aqsa, is being occupied by Zionists. For Arabs, and also for Muslims, this is equivalent to being punched in the face every morning and every evening. Being reminded that although we are many, and the Zionists are few, we are doing nothing while they are doing the above. This is deep river of anger and rage which is there for whoever wishes to tap into it. Iran has successfully tapped into it, and this is big threat to the US/Zionist plans for the region of the Middle East and beyond. 
Second, the system of Wilayat Al Faqih is a system that is outside the control of the US and Zionists, which is why they hate it. If they could manipulated / bribe the marjaa' as they bribe and manipulate other politicians, the US and Iran would be best friends as they were under the pre IRI government. They are obsessed with power and control, so they automatically hate anything they can't control. Because of the current world economic system, which is run 100% by banks and mega corporations, these banks and corporations, most of which are headed by Zionists, have the ability to pump up or bring down any national economy in the world. Since these countries are run by politicians, who are most afraid of losing their power, these politicians known that to face down the Zionists and these corporations means their economy will go down and because of that they people will turn against them and they will lose their political power. So although they may disagree with the way these things are run, they will never openly confront the 'powers that be' because of this fact. The only country in the world that is actually confronting these policies is Iran, which makes them a threat to the current order of things, with big banks and corporations at the top and everyone else under their feet. The Wilayat Al Faqih is the head of the groups that are confronting this system, openly, and groups are uniting and organizing under this leadership.
So although I do not agree with everything the is done by IRI (I have stated plainly, many times the areas where I disagree) I believe that overall, the world is a better place because of the existence of the IRI, may Allah(s.w.a) protect them and strengthen them and strengthen and project our Wilayat Al Faqih and our marjaa' and all the mumineen and muminat. I get up every morning and pray that I will live to see the day that there is a flag, other than the Zionist flag, being raised over Masjid Al Aqsa, InShahAllah. 

Iran has resources and is in a strategically important location but since they do not slave and degrade themselves for others they will not be left alone.
More importantly, they are the only enemy of israel.

Salam 
why do some men think they are in control during mutah 
if your not paying her bills she don’t need your permission to leave the house

Wa alaikum as salam,
Simple Answer is No for your question as we don't believe in killing anyone unless they unleash their terrors and we fight for our defense
We as followers of Prophet (saww) and Imam Ali (as) have certain rules regarding everything in life...Since your question is about killing enemies of Islam and Ahlebait (as) is concerned-- Look into history and find the ways of tackling such people by Imams (as) of AhleBait (as) 
Maula Ali (as) didn't wage war against first 3 caliphs though all were oppressors of his position and wealth/property of Fatima (sa) to save the Ummah from schism (breaking into sects/parts) and he advised all of them from time to time on different matters..
When Maula Ali (as) accepted caliphate after assassination of 3rd caliph as people were adamant to make him caliph, he accepted caliphate with certain preconditions regarding Justice and equality and humanity..
Banu Umayya and their allies in oppression revolted against Maula Ali (as) as they didn't want the implementation of true face of caliphate which was based on Justice..Maula Ali (as) fought different wars against these renegades only to save Islam and true face of caliphate and that too when these groups attacked muslim nation in different places and killed people..
Ibn Umar was one of the enemy of Maula Ali (as) and he didn't pledge allegiance when whole of Medina was pledging allegiance but Maula didn't attack/insult or kill him instead he had provided him amnesty..
Kharijites were also slandering and cursing but Maula didn't stop or attacked them till the time they didn't start their oppression and tyranny..Even few companions of Maula asked the permission to stop them at-least from coming to Masajid but Maula didn't give them permission to do so..Maula debated with reason and logic with all these groups who have revolted against his righteous caliphate but their hearts were hardened and they didn't get the light of Truth..
Yes, when they attacked and started killing muslim and plundering their properties Maula fought with them and defeated them..
and we are also following same ideology..of patience till the time others not attacking us ...
 

Height of stupidity--
this hadith was narrated on authority of Mohammad Hanafiya ibn Ali.. in Sunni books of hadith to prove the worth of these men...
It is fabricated lie just they have attributed one Lie to Hazrat Zaid ibn Sajjad during his uprising...
Umayyad and Abbasid did their best to fabricate truth with falsehood but got caught in their own web...
 

Imam Ali (as) talked with Uthman & he accepted to correct his mistakes & Imam Ali order that his sons protect him  but attackers during battle with betrayal of some near people to Uthman  inside his Palace  entered to his place from a secret door when they were busy to defending in other side & at last killed him.

Imam ali (as) never forced anybody’s his Bay’ah . He never eager for caliphate and was neutral against enemies until they didn’t rise against him & cause problem for other Muslims.
