The Ruling on the Books of the Shi'ah and the Refutation of Them
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh:
Yes. He prays it after the midday prayer. If he missed the four rak'ahs before the midday prayer, he prays them after the prayer, then he prays the last rawatib, which is two rak'ahs. Yes.
The presenter:
Peace be upon you.
The Shaykh:
Yes. Yes, from Hayy ibn Hibah, yes.
The questioner:
This is a bid'ah (religious innovation). Huh?
The Shaykh:
They have major shirk (associating partners with Allah); they have worship of other than Allah; they have worship of the People of the House. As for cursing Mu'awiyah, that is a wrong and a sin, but greater than that is: "O Ali, O Husayn, O Fatimah, call upon them instead of Allah." This is major shirk. We ask Allah for safety. It should be burned if found; it should be burned. I mean, perhaps, Shaykh, their madhhab (school of jurisprudence) has speech on some matters. It should be burned. Halili, read. It should be burned and destroyed so that people are not deceived by it, may Allah keep us safe. Some young people read them, saying, "It is among the best written in refutation, so I read it." I mean, they read the refutations. Second, if he takes it to refute them, there is no harm. Then it remains among the people, and the common person and others read it; no. But if a student of knowledge takes it to refute them, there is no harm, just as Shaykh Taqi ibn Taymiyyah (may Allah have mercy on him) did when he refuted Ibn al-Mutahhar in the book al-Manhaj and others. Yes. It suffices regarding these books, and he says they are among the best narrated on this topic. It is not a refutation; these are their books. The refutation that shocks the people of the Sunnah is this refutation. As for this, it is not called a refutation; their action is batil (invalid). Rather, the refutation is what shocks the people of the Sunnah.
