I'm a Nizari Ismaili Shia, same sect as the Assassins. Descendant of them. We are now in Pakistan We made a vow to protect the innocent, no matter their religion, race or culture. We still exist and have the Creed, and do humanitarian aid all over Asia and Africa now. We live by a quote "If you stay neutral in times of oppression, you have chosen the side of the oppressors."- Imam Hussein (RA) We believed in social justice, cultural, ethnic and religious equality. We treated everyone equally. We freed slaves, killed warlords, and authorities that abused their power We allowed people to drink, gamble, and have sex in our cities and be Non-Muslim as long they're not hurting anyone. We killed the evil tyrants. Christian, Muslim, did not matter. We were impartial and helped both sides on the Crusades depending on who was a better for the time I will forever be proud that my ancestors following what it means to be Muslim: To make the world a better place, for all people, for everyone.

Bro really and truly Shias started off as a political movement it wasn’t even religious. However Islam is free from politics, but engulfs politics. All the Sahabah were men who fought next to the prophet, sat with the prophet, and literally prayed with the prophet. So anyone who thinks he has a say in their affairs or their personal issues is coming from a place of ignorance call it Shia call it twelvers . These men were promised Jannah and the only way you will enter Jannah is following Mohammed and Allah.

@alirezasahafi7009 4 года назад

Actually the word shii started to grow after death of Hussain(a.s) n then mokhtar ibn abi ubaid Al saqafi, tried to avenge him,it was actually when some people got United as Shia,bcoz they saw the religion is not in safe hands,it wasn't about politics,it was about the religion itself,if they wouldn't have stopped yazid ibn moaviah,if imam Hussain wouldn't have been killed in the karbala,probably the Islam we have today wouldn't be same

@alirezasahafi7009 4 года назад

But as a Shia I think,we shouldn't have any dispute,bcoz in first place we are all Muslims,we should respect each others,coz in Islam we are all brothers and sisters,and as our prophet said you should treat others the way you want them to treat u,so with ethics and morals our din will get better and better everyday inshallah

An important information about the music playing after 4th minute: this song is made by an unknown Turk during Crimean War although everyone knows it as an Arabian music. Its name is "Üsküdar'a Giderken" meaning "While going to Uskudar" (Uskudar is a place in the Asia side of Istanbul) Also Ali's followers weren't only Shias, there are Alevis(mostly popular in Syria, Iraq and Turkey) who call themselves neither Sunni nor Shia. Sunni is basically the one who follows Kuran and prophets Shia also adds Ali as a redeemer, while doing that they continue to follow Muhammad and Kuran

Many historians believe Hashashins is not derived from Hashish (Weed) at all, because it also literally means "The reapers" in Arabic. Hashish means "Grass", and thus the sickle tool is still called "Mehshash" in some Arab countries today. Reaping grass is the verb "Hash". "Reapers of heads" is a known statement from these times.

@marcustucker9911 Год назад

Many things in japan are exaggerated through legends. Like for example the katana. Yes it's a good cutting tool but compare it to arabic or indian steel it was dirty steel. Would snap in two if clashed with such a sword made out of good steel. Japan was not disturbed due it it's geographical position and the most of their legends are about war between themself. Compare that to Syria or the near east in total. That place has been in chaos since the recorded history. Egyptian and Mesopotamian wars, greek vs Achaemenid Empire, rome vs successor states, islamification, fight between sunni and shia, the crusades. It was a forge where the hardest and toughest were forged.
