Deviated Sects

Q: Are Shias kaafir?

Q: I belong to a community who believes that majority of Shia are kaafir and want me to call them kaafir too. When I say that I leave this to Allah to decide as I am no one to judge then they call my aqeedah distorted and some even go further by saying that I am an Athiest.

Is it mandatory to call others kaafirs or what does Islam say for people who don’t want to give their verdict?

Q: What should be the conduct of a Muslim towards a person who is a Qaadiyaani (based on certain evidences like wearing particular type of abayas, wearing nailpaints all the time even during fardh ghusal and wudhu, claiming that she follows the maslak in which nailpaints have nothing to do with wudhu/ghusal viability) but have never called her so or have never been confronted for her belief except for a few occasions, on her social media raised voice for the persecution of Ahmadis. That stirred in our minds that she might be one... then we pondered, researched and thereafter find how to spot a Qaadiyaani female.... The said girl is our friend, but after this acknowledgment we try to maintain a distance but being roommates at a hostel and in our attempt to not depress her further through isolating her as she is already a detained student... we are not able to do it completely! We are in a different class so that implies that we aren't together all the time.

Please help us in this situation to protect our imaan from this fitnah and guide us to how we should behave towards her. She never talks about religious stuff and is unlikely to influence anyone with her belief, when she even has not disclosed it to us.

Q: What is the definition of Khawaarij?

Are there some Khawaarij or Khawaarij's ideologies in this time?

Q: What do the Ulama say about the Zaahiri school (literalist school of thought)?

Q: The Ahmaddiyah's prove the Mesiah to be Mirza Ghulam Ahmed becuase they say that in Sahih Bukhari Volume 4 Book 55 Hadith 648, Esa AS is described as having "red complexion and curly hair" but in the very next hadith (hadith 649) Rasulullah sallallahu alaihi wasallam describes Jesus, son of Mary to "having brown coloured skin and lank hair"

Can you please give me the tafseer of the two hadiths because Ahmadis claim that in both hadiths, Rasulullah sallallahu alaihi wasallam is describing Esa AS with 2 opposite descripitions. The Ahmadis claim that hadith 648 is descirbing the Prophet Esa and hadith 649 is describing the 'metaphorical' Esa AS (for them it's Mirza Ghulam Ahmed), can you please give some clarification? 

Q: I want to know what is the reality of the shia performing 4 rakat amal and recite ziarat of ashura?

Q: I try to study comparative studies of different sects of Muslims. I’ve read your answers about Shias on the website where you have stated that shias are kafir. Kindly consider my following questions and answer please.

1. Are shias or anyone who have hatred in their hearts for Rightly guided caliphs or he/she criticize them are kafir?

2. Does anyone who speaks ill about Umm ul Momineen makes him/her kaafir?

3. If answer for above questions is YES, then why do our Muhadditheen narrated from them prophetic narrations? (Ubayd Allah bin Musa al-Absi, Abbad bin Yaqub al-Rawajini & Abd al-Malik bin Ayan al-Kufi and more)

4. Is it allowed to narrate from kaafir whether he/she is truthful?

5. Do we have any narration in our Sihah books or other books of Ahadeeth narrated from any non-muslim except shias?

Q: I live in a village where about half of the population are Ahmadis. Is speaking to them, going to their marriages or deaths, etc. allowed or not?

Q: What are your eminent views about the mourning ceremonies and gatherings of Shia people. Is this haram or good?
