Wa alaikum salam wa rahmatullah brother Ibrahim. MashaAllah. So nice to have you here. I hope you enjoy your time here, and inshaAllah benefit and contribute to shiachat. Since you love the name Ibrahim, the name of one of the five greater Prophets and the father of tawheed/monotheism, may I kindly suggest the book Hajj by Ali Shariati? https://www.al-islam.org/hajj-pilgrimage-ali-shariati The website I linked is the mainstream shia islamic website. So, you can study articles and books further there and even watch scholarly clips, ask questions as well. May Allah bless you and your family.

Tanzanian shia Muslim Kids singing Milad an-Nabi song:

It is not just Ibn Abbas. Other companions as well say that they performed mutah marriages in the time of the Holy Prophet ((صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم)) and the first and second caliph until later Omar banned it. Here's another sunni source (Sahih Muslim Book 16, Hadith 18) where companion of the Holy Prophet, Jabir bin Abdullah talks about the issue: وَحَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ الْحُلْوَانِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، قَالَ قَالَ عَطَاءٌ قَدِمَ جَابِرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ مُعْتَمِرًا فَجِئْنَاهُ فِي مَنْزِلِهِ فَسَأَلَهُ الْقَوْمُ عَنْ أَشْيَاءَ ثُمَّ ذَكَرُوا الْمُتْعَةَ فَقَالَ نَعَمِ اسْتَمْتَعْنَا عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَأَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ ‏.‏ Ibn Uraij reported: 'Ati' reported that Jabir b. Abdullah came to perform 'Umra, and we came to his abode, and the people asked him about different things, and then they made a mention of temporary marriage, whereupon he said: Yes, we had been benefiting ourselves by this temporary marriage during the lifetime of the Prophet (ﷺ) and during the time of Abu Bakr and 'Umar. https://sunnah.com/muslim:1405c In another narration he explains that companions used to perform mutah marriages in the time of the Holy Prophet and first two caliphs but this time he clearly states that it was Umar who banned it. حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، يَقُولُ كُنَّا نَسْتَمْتِعُ بِالْقُبْضَةِ مِنَ التَّمْرِ وَالدَّقِيقِ الأَيَّامَ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَأَبِي بَكْرٍ حَتَّى نَهَى عَنْهُ عُمَرُ فِي شَأْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ حُرَيْثٍ ‏. Jabir b. 'Abdullah reported: We contracted temporary marriage giving a handful of tales or flour as a dower during the lifetime of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and durnig the time of Abu Bakr until 'Umar forbade it in the case of 'Amr b. Huraith. https://sunnah.com/muslim:1405d

Salam and welcome to shaichat. Shia narrations talk more about the abundance in wealth during Imam Mahdi's reign. I have seen lots of hadiths regarding the rule of Imam Mahdi (عليه السلام). And I believe the material things being abundant in his time, will be mainly due to the elimination of the capitalist-enslaving-warmongering-sanctioning global system. And to such a reign of justice and islam, Allah will shower his mercy/rain and crops as well inshaAllah. But, the turning green of Meccah a little now is not it. It will all be green when the Saudi-American bombardment of Yemen ceases. It will all be green when sanctions end. It will all be green when Turkey stops building more dams. and let Euphrates flow etc. So, Saudi occupied Hijaz is not the only 'Land of Arabs'. Iraq, Syria, Yemen also are. And in other sunni and shia narrations, the Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم prays for Yemen and Syria against Najd/Saudis.

wa alaikum salam. Shia Islam does not believe in different ahruf-wordings. Rather we believe in different recitations. See: https://www.al-islam.org/ask/what-is-the-shia-understanding-of-the-different-qiraat-of-the-quran-why-do-they-exist-what-is-the-difference-between-these-qiraat-and-the-sunni-belief-of-seven-ahruf-of-the-quran/sayyed-mohammad-al-musawi For a detailed research, see: https://www.introducingislam.org/info/7harfs/7harfs3.php

Religious state and Secular State using Religion are two different things. Azarbaijan and Turkey are secular-godless states that change and use religion and religious people. Much like what Amr bin As and Muawiyah did. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hijab_protests_in_Azerbaijan When the so-called Syrian Revolution began, in Turkey hijab was banned and in Azarbaijan it still is. But in Syria it has never been banned. But somehow, with all the organizations all around the world, Turkey could get all the jihadists to send them to Syria to fight. How could they do it? It is easy. Misinformation. It is easier than how they managed to bring the Syrians to fight against Imam Ali. When they hear that Imam Ali was attacked in a mosque, they asked if he ever prayed. Same way, when you mention the Syrian Govt is not Alewite. It is secular. But it still has more islamic rules than the so-called muslim Azarbaijan and sunni Turkey. Shiites, Sunnis and all can live and abide by Islamic teachings easily in Syria whereas in Azarbaijan and Turkey, they can't. I mean current AKP Turkish leaders are boasting how many new alcohol factories they started, how they abolished the law that adultery was illegal, how they encourage state run gambling (milli piyango, bahis, iddia), etc. But they can fool people again once they open Hagia Sophia Mosque to praying. Same goes for Azarbaijan. I mean they ban hijab and all other requirements of Islam, but when they ignite old enmities with Armenia and "conquer" a place and let the adhan be recited in a mosque, it is like they are muslim heroes now. So, sadly neither Turkish not Azeri regimes care for Islam. They don't care for sunnism either. They just fool their nations and use their gullibility. They cover up their treason to Islam and Muslims. At the same time, they create false enemies and send the religious youth to go there and fight the "enemy" and that way they secure their thrones from possible future muslim oppositions.

Thanks a lot. Found it dubbed in English https://www.shiatv.net/video/1715264299

The video quotes the Persian book and translates the texts as is and I understand Persian. So, it is %100 legit. As for those who criticize the video, if there are any, you can ask them yourself why they do that. I can not and will not talk about the reasonings of all members here. Especially after seeing one or two weirdos defending secularism against the sharia state (Islamic Republic). I watched the video myself and I suggest it. And it correctly answers the false accusations of the servants of the CIA who try to undermine Islamic Unity and the spread of the Islamic Revoluiton.

First of all, it is Imam Khomeini (رضي الله عنه) for you and all of us. Secondly, why are you making ads for an anti-islamic website here? That website is clearly run by a filth that has no knowledge of Islam and Imam Khomeini. Thirdly, there have been many misquotes, mistranslations about Imam Khomeini discussed here before. And Imam Khomeini is clear from all these accusations of these fitna mongers. Imam Khomeini and his Islamic Revolution is mentioned and praised by the Holy Prophet (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) and Imams (عليه السلام) and as their foremost follower, he did never accuse the Holy Prophet of any impurity. Unlike what the "sunni" hadith books, seerah books, quran commentaries do say immoral things about the Holy Prophet (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم). So, I do advise you to get his books and study them for yourself instead of browsing the websites of the enemies of Islam about him. Here's the official website about him: http://www.imam-khomeini.ir And here are some books written by him: https://www.al-islam.org/jihad-al-akbar-greatest-jihad-combat-self-sayyid-ruhullah-musawi-khomeini https://www.al-islam.org/adab-salat-disciplines-prayer-second-revised-edition-sayyid-ruhullah-musawi-khomeini https://www.al-islam.org/forty-hadith-exposition-second-revised-edition-sayyid-ruhullah-musawi-khomeini https://www.al-islam.org/islamic-government-governance-jurist-sayyid-ruhullah-musawi-khomeini Once you read his works, trust me, everything that the sectarian fitnahmongers say about him will perish in your eyes. Though if you still insist that this quote must be correct about Imam Khomeini (رضي الله عنه). then I suggest you watch this video. İn the first minute of the video is this accusation about Imam Khomeini is mentioned and the truth is made clear: https://islamicpulse.tv/ivideo/fiery-response-to-takfiri-wahhabis-spreading-lies-about-shias-and-iran-backfire/

I want to link this documentary I saw years ago to a sunni fellow I met online and I can not find it anywhere. May Allah curse the so-called freedom of speech of the west! It seems they have taken down all Iranian news and documentary accounts!

Kharijites? Wow, the internet is just crazy then. lol. wa alaikum salam. Most of us are twelvers usouli shia muslims. We believe in twelve imams. We are also called Jafaris because of our adherence to Imam Jafar al Sadiq. Zaydi etc brethern are also shia muslims and you can talk to them to know their beliefs. We have some zaydi members here. When someone is making a research, they should talk to the followers of that religion and denomination. I would not ask a Christian about Islam or vice versa. Same goes for denominations. I did not ask what shia islam is to sunnis. Same goes for jurisprudential denominations. You can ask Jafari twelver faith to jafari twelvers and Zaydi faith to Zaydi Shias. And no matter which denomination you choose, always keep loving Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَ تَعَالَى), his Prophet (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) and Ahlulbayt and work for unity of Muslims and oppressed nations against global arrogance. ma salam.
