Are Shia Muslims Infidels by Lady234: 3:16pm On Feb 13, 2010
Wahhabi sunni muslims say shias and certain other non-Wahhabi Muslims are infidels.
Quote from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wahhabi#Destruction_of_Islam.27s_early_historical_sites
Destruction of Islam's early historical sites
Main article: Destruction of sites associated with early Islam
The Wahhabi teachings strongly disapprove of veneration of the historical sites associated with early Islam, on the grounds that only God should be worshipped and that veneration of sites associated with mortals leads to idolatry. Consequently, a significant number of buildings associated with early Islam, historic mosques, mausoleums and other artifacts have been destroyed in Saudi Arabia by the Wahhabi followers from early 1800s through the present day. This practice has proved controversial and has received considerable criticism from the Sunni and Shia Muslims and in the non-Muslim world

Attitudes towards Non-Muslims
A study by the NGO Freedom House found Wahhabi publications in a number of mosques in the United States preaching that Muslims should not only "always oppose" infidels "in every way", but "hate them for their religion , for Allah's sake", that democracy "is responsible for all the horrible wars of the 20th century", and that Shia and certain other non-Wahhabi Muslims were INFIDELS

Quote from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wahhabi
Because they gave themselves the ultimate right to declare people Kuffar (plural of Kafir or infidels), Muhammad ibn Abd-al-Wahhab's followers led an army which occupied Ta’if and Mecca (Makkah). This was followed by massacres of unarmed Muslims (including men, women, and children) and the destruction of many graves and holy sites. Muhammad ibn Abd-al-Wahhab also considered destroying the house where the Prophet Muhammad was born and destroyed Sufi shrines and sacred tombs in Mecca and Medina, including the grave of Prophet Muhammad and his companions, out of fear that it might be worshipped.

DO WE SHIA MUSLIMS WORSHIP "GRAVES" OF OUR IMAMS AND THE PROPHETS OF ALLAH WHEN WE VISIT A GRAVE AND PRAY "BY" IT?

You can only find such a set of word[s] in the bible; OT and NT verses. Do your own checking.

in addition, there is no masajid that i know in the US that is preaching 'always oppose' infidels 'in every way'. Muslims are marginalized in this part, regardless of what you may think; pre 9/11. post 9/11 is even worse because every mistake, the authority will tag it 'muslim' even if you sneeze.

my experience is that a weak minority is not always strong in implementing its agenda over the stronger majority that has all the trump cards.

no muslim hates them for their religion for Allah's sake.

we may dislike or hate their attitude for Allah's sake, we love them at the same time for Allah's sake, because it is from their rank that will come the 'reverts'.

There is freedom of religion. Muslims are at peril because Islam opposes Jesus as God and Jews as no longer holding God's preferred people. Hence the Christians and Jews are backing each others up against Islam. Today, the authorities on islam are the non-muslims over the scholars and practitioners of Islam.

I am not a hyphenated muslim, so my position is in support of my noble religion only and not any or against any sect.
