A girl from the Shi'ah asking to enter Islam and the books she is given

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Shaykh, may Allah forgive you, there is a girl from the Shi'ah here who says: I would like to enter your community, meaning the Muhammadan Sunnah. Is this permissible?

The Shaykh:
Yes, fear Allah, that is good.

The questioner:
Because in...

The Shaykh:
the way of good.

The questioner:
I traveled to Bahrain.

The Shaykh:
Yes.

The questioner:
I traveled to Bahrain during the time of the pilgrims, just once, and there I came and said to her: How is this? You are in this state? She says: I would like to enter the Islamic religion, but I see that in the books there is a lot of misguidance regarding our rights.

The Shaykh:
The Rafidah are the most severe of the Shi'ah; they are the most severe in their hostility to the Sunnah.

The questioner:
Name it, O Shaykh.

The Shaykh:
And if Islam is in reality, and even though they claim Islam, the truth is that they are enemies of Islam.

The questioner:
Good, O Shaykh, above.

The Shaykh:
Islam, and what is other than explicit Islam.

The questioner:
She asks for books on the challenge.

The Shaykh:
The people of the Sunnah and the community are cursed, and at their head are the truthful Abu Bakr and 'Umar. Yes.

The questioner:
There is no power and no strength.

The Shaykh:
We are cursed, and they believe that they are at war with them, and that they are disbelievers and misguided. Do we hope for good behind that? We ask Allah for safety.

The questioner:
Good, O Shaykh, do we give her books on hijab if she asked us for something?

The Shaykh:
First, what should be explained to her is the correct creed, and that what is known of the hatred of the Rightly Guided Caliphs and the enmity toward 'Ali and the Companions is among the most misguided of misguidance. Likewise, their cursing of 'Ali and the worship of 'Ali and the People of the House is disbelief and misguidance. They know this, and hijab is a secondary matter. Yes.

The presenter:
Thank you, Your Eminence the Shaykh, and may Allah bless him and reward him with the best reward.
