One important thing that should be noted, is that those shias who say "La Illah Ilallah", confirm that Muhammed(Saw) was the final prophet, and dont say the quran had been altered, ARE muslims, and should be treated as such. We should work for a better understanding and put our differences aside. When we debate about the matters that seperate us, it should be done in the best of manners, and only for the sake of Allah(Swt). The site will also retain some of the original materials on the more deviant sects, that the scholars have said fall out of the fold of islam, and adding some new ones inshallah. This is no judgement on the individuals of those sects, as only Allah(swt) knows what is in the hearts of the individual. However, the scholars have labelled the beliefs as deviant, such as the "Nation of Islam". It is hoped that inshallah this site will remind them of the true deen, and we ask that Allah(swt) guide all people to islam. All that is good in this site is from Allah(Swt), and all that is bad is from us, and we ask that Allah(Swt) forgive us for it. |
