Floodgates open as ISIS takes over swath of Syrian-Iraqi border (CNN) -- After three years of seesaw battles with the regime, Syrian rebels now face another daunting challenge: fending off radical Sunni militants who are taking over swaths of the country. The Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) h...

rather then lamenting why not ourselves change?

This article is defaming a large chunk of Muslims , which includes Darul Deoband, Jamate Islami etc . They are the most peaceful Muslims I saw esp Ahle Hdith they dont interfere in politics too. It is the barelvi sect which worships sufi shrines which is violent and the recent azad maidan attack \ri...

No brother , fabricated hadith do exist , but they are already labelled so , the prophet pbuh every saying is preserved well not just the Quran. Ofcourse ziyarat is sunnah, who objects to it? Ziyarat on legal "kacchi" kabar is sunnah. But making tombs \dargah is prohibited in sahih hadith ...

Can sunni brothers here like MF,anajmi, GM etc can clarify the conditions that a person should match for him to be able to become a caliph of Muslim Ummah, I heard being from Quresh and having an Islamic state with sharia is the only practically measurable condition, are there any more?

Curse of Allah as per some sahih hadith, Jews and Christians also did the same thing for which they were cursed.

Curse means "some ill will befell" either here or in the hereafter

Ya MF should preach his pure Islam using Quran and Sunnah only without trying to ridicule the leaders whom people have blind faith in , first the blindness needs to be removed and the person himself would see the truth, although it is not necessary that even after one is convinced of truth he will a...

Lol it says "Only because the Muslim brotherhood didn’t have enough bodies to declare a caliphate." . Qardawi being a MB stooge does not offer any justification on why, typical ego problem

Here worship is a secondary issue as in hadith, it goes beyond that and does not even allow constructing "pakki kabar" in the first place. Hence it does not matter whether someone worships\or not what matters is that qabar should always be made of dirt and mud. It cannot be whitewashed or ...

Shia: IMAM JAFIR SADIQ (as) DECLARES TAKFEER ON PEOPLE WHO RENOVATE GRAVES IN SHIA HADITH ========================= Muhammad b. al-Hasan al-Hurr al-`Amuli in al-Fusul al-Muhimma vol 2, Book of Tahara, Chapters on the rules of the dead, wrote: (1212) 2 – وقال عليه السلام: من جدد قبرا أو مثل مثالا فقد...

Which two hadith? no sahih hadith encourages building tombs , infact many sahih hadith from both shia\sunni prohibit it.

And existence of one sahih hadith is enough to discourage it but we have many

O so the prophecy to fulfill this group has to reach Baitul Muqaddas ?

Please maintain decorum and dont use bad words.

It's well known and established fact that prophet (sallalahu alaihi wa ala alihi wa sallam) forbid to us to build structures upon the graves. Ahadeth with such meaning were narrated from words of Aisha, ibn Abbas, Jundub, Abu Hurayra, and Jabir. These ahadeth could be easily find in sahihayn. Even t...

There are clear commands in both shia\sunni to not make graves concrete . A grave should only be made up of dirt\Mud\Sand with an optional stone marker. And the one you mention about Surah Kahf is not about building Shrines and does not apply to Sharia of Muhammad pbuh

there is a world difference between visiting graves and visiting dargahs, grave is a simple grave of mud which is not made concrete. A dargah is a mausoleum , what they have done is demolished dargahs not graves. Even in Baqi you will find nice graves which really make you remember the hereafter unl...

I guess this is the era of big fitna and trials we should be very cautious before interpreting these texts and applying to to recent events. Nevertheless we should rather ensure that atleast we are getting the authentic news from them and not rumours and rival news reports.
