AmirioTheMuzzy

I don't really get the claims being made in this video. Everything we do contributes to the Taghoot basically? If you're at the theatre or beach and you lower your gaze (which is easier than you'd think) why would this be a problem? Is it true that the Imams (عليه السلام) know what we are doing and are saddened by this? I.e. Allah tells them? Basically, there's a lot to unpack in this video... please help JazakAllah

100% agree. I watched it and I am scarred. I was absolutely shaking and crying. It is the most vile, bewildering, brutal thing that I have ever seen in my entire life.

@AStruggler Yeah, I don't think Saanei considers meat slaughtered by non-Muslims as Halal. I too thought that all Marja agreed that meat must be slaughtered by Muslims, but Jannaati says otherwise apparently. No, I don't go to YU.

Saanei probably holds the same position as Jannaati: Here is his risalah (Istiftās Fatwas for Those Living Out of Iran): http://saanei.xyz/pictures/books/pdf/ejtehad-en95.pdf

No clue. Here you can ask your question (submit button is the one on the right): http://www.jannaati.com/eng/index.php?page=7 If that doesn't work, email info@jannaati.com These are the only rulings I could find: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mohammad_Ebrahim_Jannaati http://www.jannaati.com/eng/index.php?page=6 https://www.al-Islam.org/al-tawhid/general-al-tawhid/ijtihad-its-meaning-sources-beginnings-and-practice-ray-Muhammad-ibrahim

@AStruggler This is the position of most Maraji. However, this particular Marja says that meat slaughtered by ahlul-kitab is permissible and that all humans are intrinsically tahir (pure).

Yes, you are correct: https://www.Imam-us.org/clarification-ayatullah-Sayyid-Ali-al-sistanis-opinion-practice-tatbir/ http://tatbir.org/?page_id=98 So, does this mean that the islamaphobes have a point? How can one argue that this type of dissimulation isn't just us "liying, or not telling non-Muslims their true goals"

Can you give an example?

Saajid Lipham posted a video called "Is Islamaphobia Rational?"... in the first 3.5 minutes he adresses Taqiyyah as something Rafidi Ithna Asheria do and bases this off of a Islamqa ruling(website). My response (in the comment section): Wow!!! Way to throw Ithna Asheri (Twelver) Shias under the bus! Taqiyyah is totally logical and is to only be used when your life is in danger. Even if your life is in danger, you cannot do taqiyyah if it will create fitna for the Ummah. It is not hypocrisy. It's being virtuous on the inside and sinful on the outside, not the other way around. I'm very upset that Islamqa calls us rafidi. No madhabb/sect derives it rulings based on their own whims and fancies. This labelling creates division and sectarianism instead of the much needed unity (we need to remain distinct BUT not hate each other). You're usually better than this Saajid Please do more research in the future. Wassalam. 10 Questions About Taqiyyah: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kh1C51d76A4 Please like my comment so Saajid and other viewers sees that taqiyyah is totally logical and that you should not throw your fellow Muslims under the bus like Saajid did. My username is "Amirio" Also... what a stupid thumbnail that has literally nothing to do with the video. Ilhan Omar was not mentioned even once throughout the video!

Completely agree. Linda Sarsour who said the most disgusting blasphameous thing at the women's march (you know, the one where women parade around dressed as genitalia talking about their right to kill their innocent baby for their own convenience and for freedoms): "Prophet Muhammad would be leading this march!" Absolutely disgusting degeneracy. A'udhu billahi min ash shaytani rajim

Read that tweet. The issue switched from "is criticizing Israel anti-Semitic?" to "I shouldn't attack Israel because people attack my identity" (she made it about her Muslim identity - despite doing a terrible job at properly representing Islam lol)

And all she does is work on LGBTQ issues. I mean she goes above and beyond her party's requirements. She partied in a drag club once. The message she sends is that she is okay with gay sex, gay marriage, and transgenderism. She also makes blasphameous statements on twitter (comebacks): "God must have a weird sense of humor" (misunderstanding aqeeda) and "Jesus take the wheel" (either shirk or disreprect). Allah makes it very clear in the Qur'an that we must not make blasphameous jokes. She totally discredited herself on the Israel issues and delegitimized it; by appologizing for it and taking it back, instead of appologizing for the language she used. This is only the tip of the iceberg.

It does not matter. You can do takbir as much or as little as you want. The only Takbir that is Wajib (mandatory) is Takbir al-Ihram (the first takbir to start the prayer). The rest are Mustahabb (recommended).

I thought it works like this: Ihtiyat wajib - you may refer to another A’lam Mujtahid (you can follow their ruling instead) Ihtiyat mustahabb - you may abandon acting according to this precaution; I.e. no need to consider this mustahabb (recommended act)
