The deviant Shia…{Rafidha}

Origins of this sect

http://www.ahlelbayt.com/articles/history/origins-of-the-shia-sect

Sahabah

“The Shia paradigm is based on slandering the Sahabah, the friends of the Prophet of Islam. Using a process of disinformation, the Shia will portray the false idea that the Sahabah were involved in oppressing the Ahlel Bayt, in particular the family of Ali ibn Abi Talib (رضّى الله عنه). The historical narrative of the Shia is based on this lie, and here we defend the Sahabah and show that they were lovers of the Ahlel Bayt.”

Shirk

The SHIA have exalted their Imams–including and especially Ali (رضّى الله عنه)–to a level of Shirk (associating partners with Allah). The Shia have granted their Imams a status of gods amongst men. Islam was sent to destroy Shirk in all its forms, and Shirk is considered by Allah to be the gravest of sins.

The Trial of the Grave and Resurrection

The belief in the Last Day is a belief in all that the Prophet (peace be upon him) told of what will happen after death, belief in the grave trial, in the grave punishment and in the grave delight.

As for the trial, people will be tried in their graves. Every one will be asked: “Who is your God? What is your religion? Who is your Prophet?” Allah will affirm the believers with the true words in this life and in the Hereafter, so the believers will say: Allah is my Lord, Islam is my religion, and Muhammad (peace be upon him) is my Prophet.

But the doubtful will say: “What? What? I don’t know. I heard the people say something, so I said it.” Thence will he be beaten with an iron bar until he sends out a loud scream which all but human beings will hear, because if they would hear it, they would faint.
