  1. Salam, I acknowledge and understand the hadiths regarding righteous scholars, as well as the sincere piety of the majority of maraje3. But having a formalised system of pretty much blind following is contradictory to the teachings of the Imams. By all means, follow righteous scholars. But when your following becomes systematic and in some cases forms your identity, we risk being misguided.
  2. These righteous companions were appointed by the Imams, unlike the modern-day maraje3.
  3. What a disaster. May Allah strengthen the SAA and protect Syria. الله وسوريا وبشار
  4. "Israel" enraged following announcement of ceasefire deal Key points: [Emphasis added] https://www.ynetnews.com/article/skrliwz7ye#autoplay

  9. The system of maraj'a is a system created after the time of the imams (عليهم السلام) in which everyone is obligated to choose a scholar to follow. The argument for this system is that if you want to follow Islamic law to the T, the only way to do so is by learning from educated scholars. The problem with this system is that there is no evidence for its legitimacy or any instructions from the imams (عليهم السلام) regarding it. In fact, the imams explicitly told us to refrain from blindly following scholars and restricting our criticism. That said, many maraj'a have vast knowledge and respectability, the most popular ones being Ayatollah Khamenei in Iran and Ayatollah al-Sistani in Iraq.
  10. Where the hell is Iran?
  11. اللهم يحفظ سيدنا ويحمي المقاومة الموت لإسرائيل
  12. It is allowed, as the tashahhud is not fixed. When Imam al-Sadeq (عليه السلام) was asked about what to recite in tashahhud, he said: قل بأحسن ما علمت فإنه لو كان موقتا لهلك الناس. "Recite what is best, for if it was fixed, the people would have perished." (Source: Al-Kafi).
