Read the Reddit comments to understand what the thread was about, since the post has since been deleted. ....................................................................................... I'm so tired of the utterly nonsensical and VERY COMMON Sunni notion of 'I am happy to seek unity with Shias as long as they don't curse/insult/abuse any Sahaba, and especially NOT Aisha, Abu Bakr, Omar, Uthman. Firstly, any Shia claim regarding the sahabi that happens to go against the Sunni narrative is considered insulting. Secondly, and more importantly, is that the same notion is true for Shias... You are insulting the Ahlul Bayt by not accepting them as divinely appointed leaders of Allah, and infallible individuals, and perfect preservers of the religion of Islam, and a high means of seeking closeness to Allah (intercession). Not only are you insulting revered Shia figures by not following them, you are commiting MAJOR shirk by giving a false attribute to Allah, by saying that Allah has not always appointed an infallible leader on this Earth, and that there currently isn't an infallible leader. Furthermore, the real kicker is that plenty of revered Shia figures, such as Abu Talib (رضي الله عنه), are considered kuffar by Sunnis. Is this not insulting? So, how can we Shias unite with Sunnis based on their own fallacious logic? Shias are the minority, and Sunnis are the majority. It makes Sunnis think that they are Orthodox and that they have to unite with Heterodox for political and humanitarian reasons, and that Shias must make [ridiculous] compromises. Shias are far more receptive to the unity message, because we actually understand Sunni Islam, and can see the commonalities. We understand that we can't make Sunnis compromise on their beliefs. Simply by being the minority within Islam, by nature we Shias already understand Sunni beliefs, whereas Sunnis have a basic strawman understanding of Shia beliefs... which is natural, considering that they are the majority. Anyways, the point of my post is the following: Let's compile a list of revered Shia figures that are not given their proper status by Sunnis, according to Shia Islam... with an explanation given. ...This is to show that we Shias and Sunnis can unite, but we cannot unite upon revered figures and imamah. ...This will also serve as a way of showing Sunnis that this argument of theirs makes no sense. Another important question we may ask is "What about commonly revered figures like Imam Ali (عليه السلام) who is given different status in both sects? Can we unite upon Imam Ali (عليه السلام)?" ...a common Sunni criticism of political unity is that "Ali ibn Abi Talib (رضي الله عنه) is given an improper status in Shia religion because they call upon him... tawassul (intercession) of the 'dead' is Shirk! So there is absolutely no room for unity since we can't even agree on the status of the sahabi" [yes, I am aware that the Imams (عليه السلام) are still alive, but Sunnis don't believe this...] I would love to hear your thoughts. Wassalam. JazakAllah Khair. Fi sabilillah. -
Audhu billahi min ash-shaitanir rajeem. Bismillah, ar-Rahman, ar-Rahim AsSalaamu Alaykum, In my humble opinion, we should focus on lessons learned from the Tragic events related to Karbala.

A Thunderous message to the enemies of The Ahlulbayt (A.S) SHARE!!!

SALAM BROTHERS & SISTERS ON SC Please i just wanted to get your attentions towards this thread and that's why i wrote the title as "open the thread and see for yourself" The thing is, a brother needs our help on something very important... I fear that he is already giving up hope on his idea even though its a smart one. Here is the message in his words: "In short, my problem is around being in debts in the last 2 years due to a series of incidents and also family crisis that I went through. Now, please bear with me as I'm not asking for any money or financial support so please don't worry. I have by help and grace of Allah (swt) cleared a big portion of my debts but there is still some good deal of it left and it's truly burdening me so much and this has been affecting my family in many aspects of our life. So, I decided to do something a bit creative and I hope it's useful for everyone. So, I'm currently working on compiling an eBook that presents life-changing and turning-point experiences by people from all walks of life. These experiences can be good or bad, they could have led to correct directions or wrong, and whatever they are, they all share the main attribute of being valuable to share with others. This can be a very valuable work, joyful to read, useful to explore, and could offer more than what it has on its lines to so many people out there from all walks of life. All I need at this stage is your support which is simply sending me a real experience that you had in your life that you consider a turning-point or a remarkable or a life-changing one, in no more than 15 lines. I also need your consent for me to publish it on my e-book that I intend to sell for the cause of raising money to pay off my debts that are dragging me and my family down rapidly unless I do something creative and useful and I hope that you find this initiative and it’s cause worth supporting. I'd be a very grateful if you could please let your readers on your email lists and Facebook & Twitter followers know about this initiative as I need the input of as many people as possible. I hope that I'm not breaking any law of the forum and I'd be a very grateful for all your support and useful feedback and inputs. This is an attempt to rescue myself from my hard situation by doing something useful and dignified rather than borrowing or asking for money from anyone, and I pray to Allah (swt) to help us all." From: brother Shaheed. So the point is; I'm not asking anyone here to share his/her experiences even if he/she is not willing to (No).... I just want us to help brother Shaheed spread this message in the social medias we are in... It won't take much time for us to copy and paste the message to our Whats-app groups, Facebook, twitter, and several other accounts we have... inshaAllah, there are people out there who have experiences to share with him... only that maybe, the message has not yet reached them... May Allah bless anyone who participate in spreading this message. I'll re-post his email address as soon as possible (after verification) inshaAllah. Thank You All.
