Khalil Andani vs. Twelver Takfiri: Are Ismailis Muslims? Muhammad Rafed rejects ruling of Khamenei 

Rafed actually doesn't follow Khamenei if he says this about Ismaili Shia. In Iran, the Ismailis are considered Muslims as per the constitution of Iran!

Wonderful work Dr. Khalil! As an Ismaili from Badakhshan, I am so proud of you the work that you are doing. May Mawla bless you.

Man thoroughly and tastefully handed Rafed the biggest L in his life. 😂 Excellent work Dr. Andani

Need more of this sir! Especially an explanation of Ismaili neoplatonism and Ismaili view on revelation. Plz 🙏 sir

Good job professor andani really good answers but unfortunately their hearts are full of hate and they will never accept their wrong ideas

I been following Khalil Andani for a long time now ! Some of his videos! Are really so informative that even the best of the best Ismaili may not be aware of the things he talk in his videos. Sometimes it feels like except Ismaili - everyone is on wrong path!!

Another important issue is that imitation is not allowed in religion, the owner of the religion and its commentator and interprtator is only Imam of the time, not the authority of imitation, nor any Ayatollah not anyone else. We, as Shia Imami Ismaili Muslims, are leading by a living and present Imam from the direct descendants of the Prophet through Hazrat Ali (a.s) and Bibi Fatima Zahra (s.a). Now I strongly say that believing in Imamat is one of the main Principal not the type of worship or pray which in Persian called Namaz! The praying is sub-subject & it must be done according to the guidance of Imam of the time as the Real Teacher & Interpretator of Quran. Prophet Muhammad (p.b.u.h) said: Ali is with Qur'an & Qur'an is with Ali. In each time, the Imam of the time is considered as Ali. For example during the Imamat of Hazrat Mawlana Hussain the hadith of Prophet can be like this: Hussain is with Qur'an & Qur'an is with Hussain... and like this it continues... So Alhmadulellah the Shia Imami Ismaili are Muslims & they are not 6 imamis as Ayatullah Sistani doesn't know properly in this specific matter of knowing the lineage of ismaili imamat but they have 49th imam now among themselves. Note: There are different branches of Ismaili throughout history & all the division was because of Who Was The Lawful & Rightful Imam! So we have Ismaili who don't believe any imam after Ismail ibn Jafar-e Sadeq. We have Ismailis who believe after Ismail ibn Jafar-e Sadeq, Muhammad ibn Ismail is the last imam & they called him Mahdi Mawood!! Continuing throughout history at the time of 18th Ismaili Muslims Imama there was another division: 1) Nizari Ismaili Muslims 2) Mustalawiyah Ismaili And continuing like this Till now as mentioned, the only Shia community which lead by a hereditary imam who is directe descendant of Hazrat Ali, is Nizari Ismaili Muslims. Some people call themselves Muslims but don't know what exactly they are talking about. Here I mean those who are out of proper education, understanding & knowledge, and just living on surfaces!!! This must be clear for once & for ever that Shia Ismaili Nizari Ismailis Are Muslims. So, please respect it & these comments to be considered as information not forcing of Idea or belief.

Awesome, professor!!! Loved it❤

Hardly convincing. The beliefs and practices of modern-day Ismailis seem to be well outside the fold of orthodox Islam.

Good for you Professor ANDANI

MARJA SHOPPING 😂😂

Bravo! Thank you for all your work, Dr. Andani! Do you know if Alevi-Bektashis are also included as Shi'i Muslims by Ayatollah Khomeini or other Ayatollahs?

This was hilarious. Thanks Dr. Adnani

What is "funny" for this Mr Rafed is that many sunnis dont believe Shia twelvers are muslims. Life among humans is amazing, above all with those who hate others who have not done anything wrong to others.

Great work sir ❤

Great Work Khalil, an absolute treat to watch!

Where we can find the full discussion if it’s available?

Made my day…

No one has the right to declare any Muslim non Muslim only god decide who is Muslim

The eight religions include the following religions that were mentioned in the previous comment: 1) Hanafi Sunni 2) Maliki Sunni 3) Hanbali Sunni 4) Shafi'i Sunni 5) Twelver Shia 6) Ismaili Shia 7) Zaidiyyah Shia and the eighth one, if I am not mistaken, is Abadiyyah. The followers of these religions are all Muslims.

I would also like to provide an answer regarding the question raised by Ali Khamenei, who is both the leader of Iran and the source of imitation for some of the 12th century: According to the decision of the meeting of Oman in 2005 in Jordan, no one has the right to issue a fatwa and all the participants' representatives from 8 religions are all Muslims. This is the first reason

Well it turns out that rafed is no different from jake. Thought he is unlike the wahabi tafiris but i was wrong

Muhammad. Rafed is asking if ayatollah is bribed to release a fatwa declaring Ismaili as Muslim, I didn't know Ayatollahs can be bribed,

I don’t believe on any religion at all. But I enjoyed this video! 😄👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

Marja shopping 😂

Now this person does not know what he is talking about. The only Shia Muslim community that has a present and living imam at the head of its affairs is the Ismaili Imami Shia of Nizari Agakhani. Unfortunately, such people consider their Shiite brothers as non-Muslims due to their ignorance and lack of awareness, but those who do not accept the words of the Prophet according to the hadith of Saqlain and the historical event of Ghadirakhm regarding the succession of Hazrat Ali, they believe them Muslims! This is the very funny & ridiculous part of the discussion!

THANK YOU SIR ... For your support for Ismaili and Islam at all

Much more appreciated Dr.Actually there is a competition between deep knowledge and unlogical molvisim.

Rafed needs to go Marja shopping😂😂😂

Twelvers and Ismailis are Iron brothers ❤

Thanks Khalil, you are love brother ❣️

Bravo Dr. Andani

Maula and Allah bless you khalil 💚❤️💚

Dr.Khalil, I love you ❤!!!

Ya Zahra marja shopper takfir somebody?! ‘Ahl al ijtihad will not be redeemed’ -mulla fayz kashani (r.a)

Khalil is very smart. He has knowledge and wisdom to trap people who talks against ismailism. He is so brilliant. So proud of him♥️

This is the problem of not following the Quran and Sunnah and rely on relying on people's opinions.

No

Great job Dr Andani. You are a shinning example of the Ismailis!!!

What this programme showed me is how important education is. These so called clerics are an albatross around the people’s neck .

Well done Khalil!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Excellent bRUH Keep it up

This person kh.. used to hang his citizens from cranes until they suffocated until they died after a period of up to 20 minutes just because he was not considered the legitimate caliph. So what is the importance of his acknowledgment that a particular religious group is developing to Islam or not?

What’s the point of being Muslim if ur not going to follow the pillars of Islam ?! Especially not praying

🇷🇺☦🤝☪️🇮🇷That's right! That guy is an embarrassment to Twelvers💁

As a twelver, we do not claim Rafed, i think this video is Psyop to create diversion among twelvers and Nizaris I would further add that rafed himself isnt a twelver or even a muslim given his condescending tone and insulting attitude i would assume he is just a paid actor here to insult both nizaris and twelvers

If the aga Khan says ismailis are not muslims will you change your opinion

These people have absolutely no problem with Muslims not fasting Ramadan, as long as they're following a fatwa from "trusted Ulama", but they call Ismailis ((kuffar)) for following the imam as they follow their Ulama!

He sounds quite arrogant and disrespectful, but the way you have shut his dumb mind up is just hilarious.

Lol he is the guy from clubhouse..now even twelvers ur friends on clubhouse call you kaafir..

I'm neither a twelver nor ismaili but. Seems to me dr. Andani is making Loaded Question Fallacy

It’s very interesting to learn what the Ismaaeelis believe in our times, however there is a consensus between Sunni and Shia that Ismaaeelis are not Muslims! To deny the Hajj and Salah is definitely kufr ! When you reject the obligation of these things you reject the Quran and the one who received it for us from Allah Muhammad عليه الصلاة والسلام and therefore you nullify the second half of your Shahadah! You cannot enter Islam thereafter by just reciting the Shahadah again! Rather you must recite it and add to it the affirmation of all the things that were previously rejected! Anyone who declares another Muslim after explicitly rejecting the obligation of these is also subject to the same and so it matters not what fulaan or Fulaan Scholar says because it’s based on clear principles and conditions and not the whims of others! As interesting as the Ismaeelis are they are 100% not Muslim just the way Iblis became Shaitan and banished from the assembly of Angels and cursed all because he rejected the obligation of prostration to Adam عليه السلام

ISMAILIS ARE NOT MUSLIMS. HOW DO YOU NOT OBSERVE SALAT AND PERFORM HAJJ BELIEVE IN THE QURAN AND SUNNAH AND STILL CALL YOURSELF A MUSLIM?!?!?

Here rafed was 100% right cuz neither ismailis believe in onenees of God not nor they belive in any of the usools of din .... They also refer to imam jaffer as kazzab ( a liar )... So rafed is still true in his stance 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Khalil, you deserve taqfir! YOU ARE NOT MUSLIMS!

I don’t believe on any religion at all. But I enjoyed this video! 😄👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
