#Repost @sufichisht_i with @repostapp. ・・・ Abu ʿAbdullah Muhammad bin Idris bin al-Abbas better known as Imam Shafi’i (150 – 204 A.H.) is the Imam of the Shafi’i school of fiqh. He said . قَالُوا: تَرَفَّضتَ قُلتُ: کَلَّا مَا الَّرفضُ دینی وَ لا إعتِقادی لکِن تَوَلَّیتُ غَیرَ شَکٍّ خَیرَ إمَامٍ وَ خَیرَ هَادی إن کَانَ حُبُّ الوَلِیِّ رَفضاً فإنَّنی أرفَضُ العِبادَ Translation: They say: You are a Rafidhi Shia and heretic, I say: Never did I become a Rafidhi, apostasy is not my religion. But needless to say that in my heart, there is extreme love and respect for the greatest leader (Imam Ali ع). If loving the the Wali of Allah (the friend of God?) is Rafdh, then I'm Rafidhi of 1st rank! #Sufi #Sunni #Shia #AhlulBayt #Soofie Words to live by! (at Lenasia Ext 13)
