Title: Dedicated forum for Shia to Sunni
Post by: Optimus Prime on November 14, 2015, 06:10:58 AM
Asalamualaikum.

With more, and more people new converts (Alhamdulillah) joining this particular forum, and sharing with us what drove them towards the true Islam, and away from the filthy yet corrupted version namely Tashayyu, I think it's only fitting we have a dedicated forum for those type of threads. It'll real collective piece of inspiration for us all, and Insh'Allah prompt more people to sign up.

If this idea is implemented the staff should move all the previous threads to this new forum.

I think it's a good idea, even though it'll be a bit slow. As most ex-Shias I've met online don't seem to care much about joining this forum. Maybe another section of this forum could be dedicated to 'Life After Shia' instead of making a complete separate forum.

If the other section had a Sunni scholar who knew about Shiaism, then that'd be great. I've tried emailing scholars questions about how I should deal with my parents, praying with Shias, doing qunoot in 2nd rakaat, ect but I don't get any responses. Looking for ex-Shias online to feel like I wasn't alone helped me out a lot, especially because of all the 'ex-wahabis' online :p.

this is common problem for many people who convert/revert to Islam. Former christian told me how hard it was when he first became Muslim, not much support near from where he lives (social support even worse).

Ask some of your questions here akhi, maybe we can at least point you in the right direction.

Sometimes we have avenues available, we just don't know how to use them.
