I apologize for my ignorance, is this opposition between the Saudi Arabia government and the brotherhood still a big thing? I hadn’t heard about it for a long time and don’t know much about it.
A little known fact I’m learning these past few weeks is nobody hates muslims more than other muslims
If only Non-Muslims were aware of this fact. There is nothing stronger than a Muslim’s love for another Muslim, yet simultaneously the opposite is also true. I’m not sure if you’re aware of sects in Islam, but extremists from the two major sects (Sunni’s and Shia’s) absolutely despise each other to the point where they’ll claim the other isn’t a true Muslim.
There is no mainstream Shia scholar who does not consider Sunnis as Muslims.
Obviously the vast majority don’t agree with these extremist views, I’m just referring to the 1% of people who say it out of pure spite and hatred. Although I’m well aware it’s more likely for a Sunni to say it than a Shia. Hell, I don’t have to look further than my own family - one of my uncles actually believes that Shia’s aren’t true Muslims. It’s crazy.
Yes but I say this as someone raised Sunni, Sunni sectarianism (to the point of denial of their Muslimhood) towards Shi’a is far far more prevalent than the other way around.
