Title: Merry Christmas.... from South Lebanon
Post by: Husayn on December 26, 2014, 09:06:05 AM
The Shias of South Lebanon wish you a Merry Christmas!

Unfortunately, "Santa" didn't turn up yet... maybe he will next year!  ;D

A Christmas Tree... with special decorations!

Is this how you honour "martyrs" - placing their pictures on an icon of paganism - a Christmas tree!?!

Subhanallah, the hearts of the Mushriks are always united. Barakallahu feek Akhi Husayn and may Allah make you steadfast on the Sunnah and Tawhid, what a blessing that you left this shirki sect. Check the following, in this years arba'in march they invited Mushrik Catholics who raised the sign of shirk the cross in the land of shirk (Karbala'):

Long story short,


Shia PR machine wishes to make alliances with Ahlul-Kitab in the ME, and use them as allies against the Muslims whose image is currently being ruined by media outlets.

Salam alaykum,

I think one unnoticed aspect in all of these types of things is the Shia contention that the Prophet (SAW) was in fact only waging defensive wars,etc. but only when the later Khulaafaa came to power did they convert people by the sword and seek to expand "their empire" to the world. Thus, the narrative is that of lenient, "tolerant Shia Islam" versus the "intolerant, vicious Sunni fanatics". This is why we see the Merry Christmas messages from their leaders and even statues of Maryam or 'Isa (AS) in Shia places - the message to the world, especially the liberal secular world is that Shiaism is close to them, unlike Sunnism. (From my observations, it is a very much liked point, at least among Shias themselves, that they see themselves as progressive and lenient in comparison to us).

Wa Salaam.

The Shiites can't have a leader unlesshe is a masoom. So now Shiites can't have a leader until this 12th coward imam shows up, that's very progressive right? :p
