As salamun alaikum. Blessed be the glorious month of Ramadan. All praises due to allah and peace be upon the prophet muhamaad(pbuh). Peace be upon all who believe in allah.

I already know what are your opinions on shias(assuming you are a sunni). But what are your opinions on the suffis and hanif-muslims?

Aisha: What do you mean by THAT scholar. I used to follow the hanif-muslim path sicerely and it is waay too deep like you said. But I still follow their customs. The will to ask questions and answer by the will and grace of allah. I don't know what you mean by "THAT" scholar. From my belief(I followed that path for years), a hanif was just one who had the same religion of abraham(pbuh). Muslim. For he was no jew nor christian. On this path, many things come to light. Basically, shirk is answered by proofs not accepted by most. I used to follow the seventh heaven, but now he follows me. Peace be upon abraham. I believe(d) in the quran whole heartedly, but never read the hadith. This was my path. Because one could not tell the authenticity of it. We know the quran to be completely true, but who really knows how much the hadith has been tampered with. Because the quran can never be changed as much as people would like and try. But on this path is where I learned about many other religions

That path was granted and I just came accross a term for that path that I knew not. But I do not follow that anymore. But in that path, you are visited by many prophets and messengers of old. Even khidr, though it is believed he intercedes to help the suffis. But once again, I do not follow that path anymore. I just never knew there was a scholar that taught this. This path came from allah when I walked it. And to my acceptance now, there is just allah and the quran sent revealed to the prophet muhammad(pbuh) that makes people muslims. No sunni, shia, suffi, hanif, etc.. The quran is perfect jurisprudence and no where does it speak of a sunni or any other sect. Other than the recompse of not choosing one caliph. But one day, it will just be muslim and no sect. And I will be happily watching it from paradise with allah. THE PATIENT and THE DELAYER. Salam! Shalom! Peace!

Ahmed: I am far from trying to cause separation. The question is to give thought to the sects that should not be. Islam should be "one" community just as how the prophet muhammad(pbuh) said. Thank you for the concern. If you read in my response to the first answer, I clearly explained that.

Aisha ment that people follow different scholars it's called (math-hab) most sunnis follow math hab Abu Hanifa Al No'man.

ISLAM HAS EXPIRED.

Islam of today is composed of a dozen major sects and hundreds of sub-sects and schools. Just two examples should demonstrate the fact that Muhammad’s Islam has expired and decomposed.

One branch of Sunni Islam, the Wahhabi for instance, has interbred with the Pashtune culture of Afghanistan and Pakistan and the result has been the Taliban version of Islam: a most reactionary, repressive and savage “religion.”

On the Shiite side, for example, there is a sect of the Ghulat Alavi that holds only to one of the five pillars of Islam: the Shehadah, an Islamic credo that says, “I testify that there is no God but Allah and Muhammad is his messenger.” This sect does not subscribe to the remaining four pillars of praying five times a day, fasting one month a year, pilgrimage to Mecca at least once in a lifetime, and paying the religious tax of zakat. The Alavi women are allowed participation in all religious events and are not required to don the hijab—a stark contrast to the Taliban who deny even rudimentary education to women and forbid them from leaving home without the accompaniment of a male relative.

The Ghulat Alavis deify the Imam Ali and the other Imams. They particularly revere the Imam Ali and worship him as a co-rank of God. They profess, “Ali khoda neest, valee as khoda joda neest”—Ali is not God, but he is not apart from God. This very same sect places Imam Ali above the Prophet Muhammad.

In conclusion, Muhammad’s dating of his faith notwithstanding, the facts conclusively show that Islam has expired. Over time, its component parts have undergone drastic mutations to the extent that the only thing that all Muslims have in common is the name of Islam and the Quran.

it's a matter of preference. Shias are not in the realm of sunnah but they have not left the realm of islam. All the other sects are a matter of comfort and personal understanding. As far as madhabs this too is a personal matter. We're not the ones to judge therefore having a personal opinion would stem from ones understanding of them. Bottom line we're all muslims in one ummah.

S.A:

I have no opinion on any group or another we are Muslims... The scholar that we choose to follow have nothing to do with what opinion we have of other Muslims, we are told not to divide among ourselves by putting labels on ourselves... Inshallah!

The real question is are we following our deen, can we say that we follow the laws of allah? the five pillars, do we give enough to the people in need? DO we follow the Sunnah! hat is what we should ask ourselves.

I ask Allah for all blessings for you and all Muslims Inshaahllah!

My heart breaks when see so much division amongs all of us believers!

Ameen
