Ignorance or Fanaticism

This book treats decisively and concisely five Masa'il (issues) in which the followers of the Ahl al-Bayt - the Shi'ah - are usually misrepresented. These issues are as follows: requirements for becoming a Muslim, who are the Ahl al-Bayt, Shi'ah and Wudhu (ablution), Shi'ah and Nikkah al-Mut'ah and Tahrif al-Qur¿an. Ideological differences amongst the Muslim sects are rooted in various understanding and interpretations of sacred texts and historical facts. Only intellectual discourse and sincerity of heart can expose the truth. The least expected of every Muslim with regards to their respective differences is understanding of each other's position on a particular issue without resulting to cheap propaganda, lies and fanaticism to the extent of excommunicating one another.
