The Reality of Shi'ism

by Muhibbudeen al-Khateeb, Ehsan Elahi Zaheer (Foreword), Abu Bilal Mustafa al-Kanadi (Translator)

It is essential for the Muslims and non-Muslims to know the facts of the Shi'ite deviation from the straight path of Islaam taught by the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and his companions. Unfortunately, it is a common view in the west that the Irani Shi'ites and their so-called 'Islamic' revolution with all its attendant turmoil, injustice and barbarism, are representatives of Islaam. It is hoped that the reader of this work will come to perceive the abyss which separates the Shi'ites from the Muslim majority, and that he will no longer condemn all Muslims for the activities of one deviant sect.

"The stance of most Shi’ites, scholars and laymen alike, towards the Islamic governments throughout history has been, if the government was powerful and well-established, to honor its leaders in consonance with their tenet of taqiyyah, for the purpose of material gain. If, however the government is weak, or is under attack by enemies, they side with the enemies against it.

An example of this is seen in the behavior of the Shi’ite philosopher and scholar An-Naseer At-Toosi. He composed poetry in praise of Al-Musta’sim, the Abbasid Caliph, then in 65A.H. executed a complete turnabout, instigating revolution against his patron, thereby hastening the catastrophe which befell Islam in Baghdad, where he headed the butcher Hulago’s blood-letting procession. In fact he personally supervised the slaughter of Muslims, sparing none, not even women, children, or the aged. This same At-Toosi also approved of wholesale dumping of valuable texts of Islamic literature in the Tigris River, its waters ran black for days from the ink of the innumerable manuscripts."
