Killing Kharijites and heretics after proof is established against them
Ibn 'Umar used to consider them to be the worst of Allah's creation. He said, "They took verses which were revealed about the unbelievers and then applied them to the believers."
[*mulhidin. According to the commentator, "It comes from inclining away from the truth and instead inclining to falsehood. In our times, it applies to someone who denies the existence of the Creator, or denies the divine deen revealed from Allah, or denies prophethood.]
6531. Suwayd ibn Ghafala related that 'Ali said, "When I report to you a hadith from the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, by Allah, I would prefer to fall from the sky rather than lie about him. When I tell you something that is between me and you, war is deception. I heard the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, say, 'Some young and foolish people will come at the end of time who will speak from the best words of mankind, but their faith will not go beyond their throats. They will leave Islam like the arrow passes through game. Kill them wherever you meet them. On the Day of Rising the one who kills them will have a reward for killing them.'"
6532. Abu Salama and 'Ata' ibn Yasar reported that they went to Abu Sa'id al-Khudri and asked him about the Haruriyya*, "Did you hear the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, say anything?" He said, "I do not know what the Haruriyya are, but I heard the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, say, 'Some people will emerge in this nation (and he did not say, 'from this nation") whose prayer will make you think little of your prayers in comparison. They will recite the Qur'an, but it will not go beyond their throats. They will pass through the deen as an arrow passes through game. The archer looks at his arrow, arrowhead and its fastening and is unsure about its notch, and whether there is any blood on it.'"
[*The Haruriyya are the Kharijites. The name is taken from Harura', a place in Iraq where they first gathered.]
6533. It is related that 'Abdullah ibn 'Umar mentioned the Haruriyya and said that the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "They will pass through Islam as the arrow passes through game.
VI. The one who did not fight the Kharijites in order to reconcile them and to ensure that people would not be averse to him
6534. Abu Salama related that Abu Sa'id said, "While the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, was distributing [zakat], 'Abdullah ibn Dhi'l-Khuwaysira at-Tamimi came and said, 'O Messenger of Allah, be just!' He said to him, 'Woe to you! Who will be just if I am not just?' 'Umar ibn al-Khattab said, 'Give me permission to cut off his head!' He said, 'Leave him. He has companions whose prayer will makes yours seem paltry and whose fasting makes your seem paltry. They will pass through the deen like the arrow passes through game. One looks at his arrowhead and there is nothing on it. Then he looks at the mount of its head and there is nothing on it. He will look at its shaft and there is nothing on it. Then he will look at its feathers and there will be nothing on them, for it has been too fast for excrement and blood. Their sign will be a black man, one of whose arms is like a woman's breast, or a piece of meat palpitating. They will emerge when there are parties among the people.'"
Abu Sa'id said, "I testify that I heard this hadith from the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and I testify that 'Ali fought them while I was with him. A man was brought with the description which the Prophet, , may Allah bless him and grant him peace, had given." He said, "Revealed about him were the words, 'Among them there are some who find fault with you concerning the zakat.' (9:58)"
6535. Yusayr ibn 'Amr said, "I said to Sahl ibn Hunayf, 'Did you heard the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, say anything about the Kharijites?' He answered, 'I heard him say while pointing towards Iraq. 'Some people will emerge from there who will recite the Qur'an, but it will not go beyond their throats. They will pass through Islam as the arrow passes through game.'"
VII. The words of the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, "The Final Hour will not come until two groups fight one another, while they claim the same thing."
6536. Al-A'raj related from Abu Hurayra that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "The Final Hour will not come until two groups fight one another, while they claim the same thing." VIII. What has come about those who use interpretation (ta'wil)

The Sahih Collection of al-Bukhari
The Shiite Assassins and The Knights Templar had always been Allies during the Middle Ages Crusades
"...Some of the nearest castles to the Assassin 'state' as it developed were the Templar castles of Tortosa (granted to the Templars in 1152) and Chastel Blanc." "The austere and spiritual Templars looking back to some imagined form of lost perfection, an exalted and nostalgic idea of an ideal order of chivalry, conscious themselves of their courage, loyalty and religious purpose, cannot have failed to recognize the goals and methods of the Assassins as close to their own. The same kind of men, not great noblemen but men from modest country manors who would have no role in the non-religious context, appear to have joined the Assassins and the Templars. There were essentially new men whose success derived from their search for personal and spiritual identity reinforced by the tight religious structure, rules and hierarchy of the two orders." "...The lay brothers, sergeants and knights of the Templars duplicate the lasiq (layman), fida'i (agent) and rafiq (companion) of the Assassins, while the knightly equivalent within the Assassins, the rafiqs, wore white mantels trimmed with red which correspond to the white mantle and red cross of the Templars." "The higher ranks of both orders, with priors, grand priors and Master, are also strikingly similar; prior, grand prior and Master correspond to da'i, da'i kabir and the Grand Master. In this context it is worth observing that while St Bernard provided the Rule of the Templars, the hierarchical structure seems to have come later and evidently from some other source." - Edward Burman, The Assassins - Holy Killers of Islam
"The famous question of the three thousand gold pieces paid the by Syrian branch of the Assassins to the Templars is another matter which has never been settled. One opinion holds that this money was given as a tribute to the Christians; the other, that is was a secret allowance from the larger to the smaller organization. Those who think that the Assassins were fanatical Moslems, and therefore would not form any alliance with those who to them were infidels, should be reminded that to the followers of the Old Man of the Mountains [Rashid al-Din Sinan, Grand Master of the Syrian Assassins fron 1162 to 1193] only he was right, and the Saracens who were fighting the Holy War for Allah against the Crusaders were as bad as anyone else who did not accept the Assassin doctrine."
"Pain and wrath invade my heart so that I almost think of suicide, or of laying down the cross I once assumed in honor of he who was laid upon the cross, for neither the cross nor his name protect us against the accursed Turks. Indeed, it seems clear enough that God is supporting them in our despite. "At one stride they have captured Caesarea and taken by force the strong castle of Arsuf. O lord God, what a hard road have the knights, the sergeants and the burghers taken, who were harbored within the walls of Arsuf! Alas! the losses of the kingdom of Syria have been so heavy that is power is dispersed for ever! "Then it is really foolish to fight the Turks, not that Jesus Christ no longer opposes them. They have vanquished the Franks and Tartars and Armenians and Persians, and they continue to do so. And daily they impose new defeats on us. for god, who used to watch on our behalf, is now asleep, and Mohammed (Bafometz] puts forth his power to support the Sultan." - Ricault Bonomel
Present-day Shiites are descendants of the Prophetic Kharijites
The origin of Kharijism lies in the first Islamic civil war: a struggle for political supremacy over the Muslim community in the years following the death of Muhammad.
The third Caliph, Uthman ibn Affan, was killed by mutineers in 656 AD, and a struggle for succession ensued between Ali, the cousin and son-in-law of Muhammad, and Muˤāwiyya, Governor of Damascus. (The core of ˤAlī's followers later became Shiites.)
In 658, ˤAlī's forces met Muˤāwiyya's at the Battle of Siffin; at first, the battle went against Muˤāwiyya, but then he hit upon the idea of having his army hoist Qur'āns on their lances, proclaiming that he wanted to have the decision of who should be Caliph arbitrated using it. Most of ˤAlī's army was favorable to the idea, and he agreed to have the question decided by two arbiters. Some in his army, however, regarded this as a betrayal; a large group of them (traditionally 12,000, mainly from the Bani Hanifah and Banu Tamim tribes) repudiated his cause, citing the verse, "No rule but God's", leaving to fight both sides. In their opinion, the right of arbitration was God's alone, and the choice of caliph should not be questioned by mere mortals. Thus they opposed both Muˤāwiyya for his rebellion and ˤAlī for submitting to the arbitration. They became known as Kharijites: Arabic plural Khawārij, singular Khārijī, derived from the verb kharaja "come out, leave the hold.
It is said that ˤAlī agreed to the arbitration in a clever scheme of his, so that he could identify the sect that the Prophet had warned him from. It is reported that the Prophet said to ˤAlī warning him of a future sect in Islam:
"Coming after me will be a sect that hurts me in my posterity. They will keep breaking away from the Muslims and opposing them. Kill them O ˤAlī, kill them, for they will be the supporters of the Antichrist."
(See the entry on Ad-Dajjal for Muslim belief in the Antichrist.)
The Kharijites fit the Prophet' description. So ˤAlī hurridly divided his troops and ordered them to catch the dissenters before they reach major cities and disperse among the population. A few decades later, the Kharijites used taqīyah "dissimulation" and assimilated and posed as the Shia of ˤAlī, especially that after ˤAlī's death and the death of his son Hussain 20 years later, most of the Ṣahāba "Companions" who supported ˤAlī had already died too either by age or on the hands of the Kharijites themselves so that they could not be identified, and then to seek protection from persecution which though started by ˤAlī but neverthless continued unabated by the Umayyads.
Abdullah ibn Abbas is said managed to persuade a number of them to return to ˤAlī. ˤAlī defeated the remaining military rebellion in the Battle of Nahrawan in 658, but the Kharijites survived and, in 661, assassinated ˤAlī. They had supposedly organized simultaneous attempts against Muˤāwiyya and ˤAmrū (one of the arbitrators at the Battle of Siffin), in their view the other main sources of strife within the Muslim community.
It is said that the bulk of the population who invited Hussein to come to them in Kufah were from those Kharijites' original tribes of Eastern Arabia (namely Banu Hanifa of Iraq and Ihsa'a up to ad-Dumat al-Jandal west). Banu Hanifa (compared to Quraysh who dominated western Arabia west of ad-Dumat al-Jandal before Islam. Those Banu Hanifa were not happy with Muhammad of the Quraysh controling all Arabia, while they were the heroes of Dhi-Qar. They tried to assassinate Muhammad. Another man criticized the Prophet for being unjust (incident for the above Hadith). Later a false prophet came out of them Musailemah, and they constituted all the Kharijites. These days they still live in south Iraq and Ihsaa as Shia of south Iraq.

Kharijites - Origin - Encyclopedia II
The origin of Kharijism lies in the first Islamic civil war: a struggle for political supremacy over the Muslim community in the years following the death of Muhammad.

It is said that Ali agreed to the arbitration in a clever scheme of his, so that he could identify the sect that the Prophet had warned him from. It is reported that the Prophet said to Ali warning him of a future sect in Islam:
"Coming after me a sect that hurt me in my Itrati (posterity), They keep (meaning from time to time) coming out (khuruj from Kharijites) against Muslims, Kill them O 'Ali, kill them, for they will be the Shia Ad-Dajjal."
The Kharijites fitted the Prophet' description. So Ali hurridly divided his troops and ordered them to catch the dissenters before they reach major cities and disperse among the population.

This is Shiism, not Islam
It's deviance from teachings of the Prophet Muhammad.
Future sequence of events in the Middle East
Mu'adh ibn Jabal and the Prophetic Hadith: A Timeline of End-Time Events
The hadith narrated by Mu'adh ibn Jabal has been a subject of deep analysis among scholars and those interested in eschatology. According to the narration, the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) foretold a sequence of events that would unfold before the emergence of the Antichrist (Dajjal):
The building of Bayt al-Maqdis (Jerusalem)
The destruction of Yathrib (Madinah)
The conquest of Constantinople
The emergence of the Antichrist
This sequence has fascinated scholars, especially in light of modern political and religious developments, particularly the efforts by Zionists, certain Shiite sects, and Christian Evangelists to rebuild the Temple in Jerusalem. This analysis will examine how contemporary events could be seen through the lens of this prophetic tradition.
Rebuilding Bayt al-Maqdis: The Zionist, Shiite, and Evangelical Alliance
In recent decades, there has been an increasing movement advocating for the rebuilding of the Third Temple in Jerusalem, often linked to Zionist aspirations and the theological beliefs of certain Christian Evangelical groups. Some Shiite factions have also expressed eschatological narratives that intersect with these ambitions.
The Zionist agenda for rebuilding the Temple involves reclaiming what they consider the historical site of the Second Temple, which was destroyed in 70 CE. However, this effort directly challenges the existence of Al-Aqsa Mosque and the Dome of the Rock, which are central to Islamic faith and history.
Christian Evangelists, particularly those in the United States, believe that the reconstruction of the Temple is a prerequisite for the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. They actively support Zionist efforts, lobbying for policies that strengthen Israel’s control over Jerusalem.
Some Shiite eschatological narratives suggest that Imam Mahdi will establish justice after a great conflict involving Jerusalem. While mainstream Islamic scholarship rejects any destruction of Al-Aqsa, certain fringe interpretations align with Zionist plans.
The rebuilding of Bayt al-Maqdis, according to the hadith, is a precursor to the destruction of Madinah. This raises the question: How could Madinah, the second holiest city in Islam, face destruction?
The Destruction of Madinah: A Political and Eschatological Perspective
The hadith suggests that the rebuilding of Jerusalem will be followed by the destruction of Yathrib (Madinah). Historically, Madinah has remained a stable center of Islamic civilization, but contemporary political and social changes could threaten its status.
Several possibilities exist regarding this “destruction”:
Spiritual and Cultural Decline: Some scholars suggest that this prophecy refers to the decline of Madinah’s religious significance. The increasing secularization and modernization of the Arabian Peninsula could lead to a loss of the city's traditional Islamic essence.
Physical Destruction: Given the rising geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, a possible military conflict involving Saudi Arabia could impact Madinah. With the growing regional rivalry between Iran and Saudi Arabia, some fear that a war could engulf the region.
Depopulation: Some interpretations suggest that Madinah will be abandoned by its people, leading to its metaphorical destruction. Given the Saudi government's rapid push for modernization, such as the Vision 2030 initiative, the traditional identity of Madinah may be eroded.
If Madinah faces destruction in any form, this would signal the next phase in the prophecy: the conquest of Constantinople.
The Reconquest of Constantinople: The Fall of the Masonic Turkish Government
The hadith foretells the conquest of Constantinople (modern-day Istanbul) after the destruction of Madinah. This suggests that Istanbul, which was already conquered by Sultan Mehmed II in 1453, will fall under un-Islamic rule and later be recaptured by true Mujahidin.
Modern Turkey, established by Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, underwent significant secularization, stripping away its Ottoman Islamic identity. The founding of the Turkish Republic marked the dismantling of the Caliphate in 1924, and since then, Turkey has been governed under a secular and often Western-aligned system.
If the prophecy is to be understood in a contemporary context, the reconquest of Istanbul could mean:
The Fall of the Turkish Secularist Regime: A revivalist Islamic force may emerge to reclaim Istanbul from its Masonic and secularist influences.
The Return of Islamic Rule: A new leadership, possibly aligned with traditional Islamic governance, could establish authority over Istanbul, restoring it as a center of Islamic power.
A Geopolitical Shift in Turkey: With increasing religious movements within Turkey, there is a possibility that a new leadership could emerge to replace the current secular model with a more Islamic system.
If Istanbul is reclaimed by a true Islamic force, it would be a significant moment leading to the next stage: the emergence of the Antichrist (Dajjal).
The Emergence of the Antichrist in the Middle East
The hadith concludes with the emergence of the Antichrist, a central figure in Islamic eschatology. Dajjal is described as a false messiah who will deceive people with false miracles and claim divinity. His emergence in the Middle East could be tied to several modern developments:
The Rise of a False Savior: Some speculate that a global leader may rise, offering false solutions to humanity's crises, including wars, economic collapse, and pandemics.
Technological Deception: With advancements in artificial intelligence, digital surveillance, and media manipulation, the Dajjal’s deception could be facilitated through these modern tools.
A New Political Order: The emergence of a global system that consolidates power in the hands of a deceptive leader could be a manifestation of the Antichrist’s rule.
As the prophecy unfolds, the need for vigilance, faith, and adherence to Islamic principles becomes more critical.
Conclusion: A Call to Awareness
The hadith of Mu'adh ibn Jabal outlines a sequence of events that align with contemporary political and religious developments. The efforts to rebuild Bayt al-Maqdis, the decline of Madinah, the reconquest of Constantinople, and the emergence of the Antichrist indicate that humanity may be approaching a significant turning point in history.
While interpretations may vary, it is crucial for Muslims to remain spiritually prepared and aware of unfolding events. As the world moves closer to these prophesied events, adherence to Islamic teachings and reliance on authentic scholarship will serve as a safeguard against deception and misguidance.
A companion of the Prophet, Muhammad encountered Moshiach of Zionists and The Twelth Imam of Shiites on an island
They said, "Woe to you! What are you?" It said, "I am al-Jassasah." They said, "What is al-Jassasah?" It said, "O people, go to this man in the monastery, for he is very eager to know about you." Tamim said that when it named a person to us, we were afraid lest it be a devil. "Tamim said, 'We quickly went to the monastery. There we found a huge man with his hands tied up to his neck and with iron shackles between his legs up to the ankles. We said, "Woe to you, who are you?" He said, "You will soon know about me. Tell me who you are." We said, "We are people from Arabia. We sailed in a ship, but the waves have been tossing us about for a month, and they brought us to your island, where we met a beast who was so hairy that we could not tell its front from its back. We said to it,"Woe to you! What are you? and it said , "I am al-Jassasah." We asked, "What is al-Jassasah?" and it told us, "Go to this man in the monastery, for he is very eager to know about you." So we came to you quickly, fearing that it might be a devil.' "The man said, "Tell me about the date-palms of Baysan.' We said, 'What do you want to know about them?" He said, 'I want to know whether these trees bear fruit or not.' We said, 'Yes.' He said, 'Soon they will not bear fruit.' Then he said, "Tell me about the lake of al-Tabariyyah [Tiberias, in Palestine].' We said, 'What do you want to know about it?" He asked, 'Is there water in it?' We said, 'There is plenty of water in it.' He said, 'Soon it will become dry.' Then he said, 'Tell me about the spring of Zughar.' We said, 'What do you want to know about it?' He said, 'Is there water in it, and does it irrigate the land?" We said, 'Yes, there is plenty of water in it, and the people use it to irrigate the land.' "Then he said, "Tell me about the unlettered Prophet 'what has he done?' We said, 'He has left Makkah and settled in Yathrib.' He asked, 'Do the Arabs fight against him?' We said, 'Yes.' He said, 'How does he deal with them?' So we told him that the Prophet had overcome the Arabs around him and that they had followed him. He asked, 'Has it really happened?' We said, 'Yes.' He said, 'It is better for them if they follow him. Now I will tell you about myself. I am the Messiah. I will soon be permitted to leave this place: I will emerge and travel about the earth. In 40 nights I will pass through every town, except Makkah and Madinah, for these have been forbidden to me. Every time I try to enter either of them, I will be met by an angel bearing an unsheathed sword, who will prevent me from entering. There will be angels guarding them at every passage leading to them.' Fatimah said, "The Prophet striking the pulpit with his staff, said: 'This is Tayyibah, this is Tayyibah, this is Tayyibah, [ie Madinah]. Have I not told you something like this?' The people said, 'Yes.' He said, 'I liked the account given to me by Tamim because it agrees with that which I have told you about the Antichrist, and about Makkah and Madinah. Indeed he is in the Syrian sea or the Yemen sea. No, on the contrary, he is in the East, he is in the East, he is in the East' and he pointed towards the East. Fatimah said: I memorised this from the Prophet." (Muslim).

Shiism: A Deviant Offshoot of Islam and the Forerunner of the Antichrist’s Religion
Shiism, often portrayed as a sect within Islam, is in reality a distinct and divergent faith that bears only an outward resemblance to true Islam. While it claims adherence to the final revelation given to mankind through Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), its core beliefs, doctrines, and practices suggest an amalgamation of various pre-Islamic ideologies, including Judaism, Christianity, Zoroastrianism, and even Babylonian paganism.
Rather than being an organic extension of Islam, Shiism represents a calculated deviation, its theological and political structures designed to subvert the monotheistic and uncompromising principles of Islam. Disturbingly, authentic narrations from the Prophet of Islam (peace be upon him) suggest that the greatest tribulation for humanity—the Antichrist, known in Islam as Al-Masih Ad-Dajjal—may emerge from within this distorted ideology.
The Origins of Shiism: Political Dissension Turned Sectarian Deviation
Shiism's origins lie not in divine revelation but in political disputes following the passing of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). While the majority of Muslims upheld the legitimacy of Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) as the first caliph, a faction—rooted in Persian influence—sought to undermine the nascent Islamic state by championing Ali ibn Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) as the sole divinely appointed leader.
Over time, this faction transformed into a distinct sect that rejected the authority of the rightly guided caliphs and fabricated an entirely new religious structure. Shiism’s concept of Imamate—wherein a select lineage of ‘infallible’ Imams is believed to inherit divine knowledge and authority—has no basis in the Quran or authentic Sunnah. Instead, it mirrors the hierarchical priesthood found in Jewish, Christian, and Zoroastrian traditions.
Judeo-Christian and Zoroastrian Influence in Shiism
A closer examination of Shiite beliefs reveals the clear imprint of pre-Islamic ideologies:
Judaism: The Shiite doctrine of an exclusive, divinely chosen lineage (Ahlul Bayt) closely resembles the Jewish belief in the ‘Chosen People.’ The concept of an unseen leader (Imam Mahdi), who remains hidden but will return to rule, parallels Jewish Messianic traditions.
Christianity: The Shiite notion of suffering and martyrdom, particularly in the cult-like veneration of Imam Husayn, mirrors the Christian concept of crucifixion and salvation through suffering. Additionally, the belief in intercession by Imams resembles Catholic practices of saintly mediation.
Zoroastrianism: Shiism's dualistic view of history—where the forces of ‘divine’ Imams battle against oppressors—bears striking resemblance to Zoroastrian eschatology, where the cosmic struggle between Ahura Mazda and Angra Mainyu defines human destiny.
Babylonian Paganism: Shiite rituals, such as self-flagellation during Ashura and exaggerated mourning ceremonies, have no basis in Islamic practice but find precedent in Babylonian and pre-Islamic Persian traditions.
Theological Deviations: Shiism vs. Islam
Shiism contradicts core Islamic tenets in several critical ways:
Concept of Tawheed (Monotheism): True Islam preaches an uncompromising belief in the Oneness of Allah, while Shiism introduces intermediaries in the form of ‘infallible’ Imams who are attributed divine qualities, thereby committing clear-cut shirk (associating partners with Allah).
Fabrication of Hadiths: Shiism relies heavily on hadith literature that is not recognized by mainstream Islamic scholarship. Their primary texts, such as Al-Kafi, contain narrations that often contradict the Quran and authentic Sunnah.
Corruption of the Quran: Some Shiite scholars have propagated the belief that the current Quran is incomplete, a blasphemous assertion that challenges the fundamental Islamic doctrine of divine preservation.
Cursing of Companions: Shiism teaches hatred towards the Sahabah (companions of the Prophet), particularly Abu Bakr, Umar, and Aisha (may Allah be pleased with them). This attitude is diametrically opposed to Islamic teachings, which command respect for those who stood by the Prophet.
Shiism and the Emergence of the Antichrist (Al-Masih Ad-Dajjal)
The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) warned about the greatest tribulation mankind would face: the emergence of Al-Masih Ad-Dajjal, the Antichrist. Based on authentic narrations, it is evident that the ideological framework of Shiism provides fertile ground for such deception.
The Shiite Awaited Mahdi: Mainstream Islam teaches that the Mahdi will be a righteous leader from the lineage of the Prophet. However, the Shiite concept of the Mahdi is a mysterious, hidden figure who has supposedly lived for over a thousand years in occultation. This belief bears uncanny resemblance to the anticipated emergence of the Dajjal—a deceptive figure claiming to be divinely ordained.
Signs of the Dajjal in Shiism: Islamic narrations describe the Dajjal as a deceiver who will claim prophethood and divinity, traits disturbingly echoed in Shiite doctrines that elevate their Imams beyond human status.
Political and Military Alignments: Shiite-led Iran has positioned itself as a global player with a messianic vision, aligning with forces that seek to undermine the true Islamic order. Could it be that the Antichrist will emerge from such an environment?
Bahaism: The Offshoot of Shiism and the Religion of the Antichrist
Perhaps the clearest proof of Shiism’s deviation is its role in spawning Bahaism—a movement that outright rejects Islam while maintaining its Shiite roots.
Founded in 19th-century Persia, Bahaism borrows heavily from Shiite doctrine but takes the heresy even further by proclaiming new prophets after Muhammad (peace be upon him). The movement openly advocates for a ‘One World Religion’—a concept eerily similar to the expected global rule of the Antichrist.
Given that Bahaism evolved directly from Shiism, it raises alarming questions: If Bahaism is a prototype for the Antichrist’s universal deception, what does that say about Shiism itself?
Conclusion: The Urgency of Preserving True Islam
Shiism, while presenting itself as part of Islam, is in reality a subversive ideology that distorts the final revelation given to mankind. Its foundations are built upon political rebellion, theological corruption, and the infiltration of non-Islamic elements. More alarmingly, it provides the ideal setting for the emergence of the Antichrist—an entity prophesied to deceive mankind through false miracles, divine pretensions, and an alternative religious order.
The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) warned his Ummah against straying from the straight path. The deviations of Shiism serve as a dire reminder that the greatest deception may yet come from within. The responsibility upon every believer is to uphold true Islam as preserved in the Quran and Sunnah, rejecting all innovations and distortions that threaten the integrity of faith.
May Allah guide us all to the truth and protect us from the tribulations of the Dajjal. Ameen.

Shiism is one of the two major branches of Islam, with deep historical roots that trace back to the early period of Islamic history. Its emergence is closely tied to political, theological, and social developments following the death of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). While Sunni and Shiite narratives differ significantly regarding the origins of Shiism, this article aims to present a balanced perspective, incorporating both views and addressing the role of Abdullah Ibn Saba’ in historical polemics.
Origins of Shiism: Political or Theological?
The Sunni perspective generally views Shiism as a political movement that arose in support of Ali ibn Abi Talib (RA), the cousin and son-in-law of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). Sunnis maintain that the concept of Imamate, as central to Shiism, developed gradually and was not an integral part of early Islam. They argue that leadership in Islam was meant to be determined through consultation (shura), as was the case with the first three caliphs: Abu Bakr, Umar, and Uthman (RA).
On the other hand, Shiite tradition holds that the leadership of the Muslim community was divinely ordained and that Ali (RA) was explicitly appointed by the Prophet as his rightful successor at Ghadir Khumm. Shiism asserts that the Ahlul Bayt (the family of the Prophet) hold a unique and divinely guided status, which led to the concept of Imamate as a theological necessity for the preservation of true Islamic teachings.
Development of Shiism: Key Historical Phases
1. The Early Period (632–661 CE)
The seeds of Shiism were sown immediately after the death of the Prophet. The issue of succession led to divisions, with a group believing that Ali (RA) was the rightful leader. His eventual caliphate (656–661 CE) was marked by civil strife, including the Battle of the Camel and the Battle of Siffin, further entrenching the division between his supporters and those aligned with other prominent companions.
2. The Umayyad Era (661–750 CE)
Following Ali’s assassination, his son Hasan (RA) briefly assumed leadership before ceding authority to Mu'awiya (RA), the founder of the Umayyad Caliphate. However, the martyrdom of Hussein (RA) at Karbala in 680 CE became a defining moment for Shiite identity. This event reinforced the perception that the Ahlul Bayt were oppressed and that legitimate Islamic leadership was being usurped.
3. The Abbasid Era and the Formation of Shiite Doctrines (750–1258 CE)
The Abbasid revolution initially had Shiite support, as it was framed as a movement to restore leadership to the Prophet’s family. However, once in power, the Abbasids distanced themselves from Shiism. During this period, Shiite theological foundations were further developed, with doctrines of Imamate becoming more elaborate. Different Shiite sects emerged, including the Twelvers, Ismailis, and Zaydis, each with varying interpretations of Imamate and leadership.
The Role of Abdullah Ibn Saba’ in Historical Polemics
Abdullah Ibn Saba’ is a controversial figure whose historical existence is debated. According to some Sunni sources, he was a Jewish convert to Islam who allegedly sought to create discord within the Muslim community by exaggerating the status of Ali (RA) and introducing extremist beliefs. He is accused of promoting the idea that Ali was divinely appointed and even possessed semi-divine attributes.
However, Shiite scholars and many modern historians question the authenticity of these accounts. They argue that the figure of Ibn Saba’ was later exaggerated or even fabricated by polemical Sunni historians such as Sayf ibn Umar, who is considered an unreliable narrator by many classical scholars. Shiite scholars maintain that their beliefs in Imamate and the special status of Ahlul Bayt were not derived from Ibn Saba’ but from the teachings of the Prophet himself and his family.
Shiism in the Modern Era
Shiism has continued to evolve over centuries, adapting to political and social changes. The Iranian Revolution of 1979 marked a turning point, establishing a Shiite theocratic state that significantly influenced global Shiite movements. Meanwhile, Shiite communities in various parts of the world, including Iraq, Lebanon, Pakistan, and the Gulf region, continue to play significant roles in contemporary Islamic discourse.
Conclusion: A Nuanced Understanding
The origins and development of Shiism cannot be reduced to a singular narrative. While Sunni and Shiite perspectives differ on key historical events, it is essential to recognize the complexity of early Islamic history and the diverse factors that contributed to the formation of Shiism. The role of Abdullah Ibn Saba’ remains a point of contention, often used in sectarian debates rather than as a definitive historical account.
Understanding Shiism requires a balanced approach that considers both historical evidence and the perspectives of those within the tradition. Engaging in constructive dialogue and mutual respect between Sunni and Shiite communities remains crucial for fostering unity within the Muslim world.

Research on As-Syafii And Al-Ghazali by Ahmad Mokhzani Abdullah
As-Syafii And Al-GhazaliExploring Differences In Creed And Methodology Between As-Syafii And Al-Ghazali
The above book will be released by The IVIFOND Organization in several years time to help readers fully appreciate scientific contributions made by Imam As-Syafii and Hujjatul Islam Imam Al-Ghazali
Albeit being recognized as Founder of the Syafii school of thought, As-Syafii did not during his lifetime profess the same Asyari creed as that of Al-Ghazali, and his methodology of deriving 'ijtihad' directly from the Quran and the Sunnah as understood by pious predecessors differed greatly from that of Al-Ghazali who derived his by blind imitation mainly of As-Syafii's legal rulings
As-Syafii himself followed the creed of the salaf, as revived by Imam Ahmad Ibn Hanbal and later on defended by Syaikh Al-Islam Ibn Taimiyyah, while Al-Ghazali had been staunch defender of the Asyari creed, founded by Ibn Kullab but falsely attributed to Imam Al-Asyari
During the lifetime of Ibn Taimiyyah, Syafii school of thought had been subverted by the Asyaris who sought to get Syafiis to follow their creed, but the effort was made fruitless by the joint efforts of the traditionalists (salafis) in both Hanbali and Syafii schools of thought
Al-Ghazali belongs to Syafiis who are Asyaris in creed, while Syafii scholars like Ibn Kathir belongs to Syafiis who follow the footsteps of the Founder, Imam As-Syafii whose creed did not differ from that of the salaf, as defended by Ibn Taimiyyah
The book will be a real eye opener to both Salafis and Asyaris of Syafii school of thought and also to Muslims of other Sunni fiqh denominations
Majority of today's so-called Syafiis are not really following Imam As-Syafii himself in creed and methodology, rather they're following Imam Al-Ghazali
