The Shia Have Hypocrisy



Shaykh al-Islaam Ibn Taymiyyah said in describing the Raafidah (Shia) and their idea of at-Taqiyyah (which is to show something but hide a contrary belief within):

The Raafidah use the following Aayah as evidence to support their idea of ‘at-Taqiyyah’:

)لاَّ يَتَّخِذِ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ الْكَافِرِينَ أَوْلِيَاء مِن دُوْنِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَمَن يَفْعَلْ ذَلِكَ فَلَيْسَ مِنَ اللّهِ فِي شَيْءٍ إِلاَّ أَن تَتَّقُواْ مِنْهُمْ تُقَاةً ( (عمران، آية:28).

“except if you indeed fear a danger from them (the word Tuqaa has been used, meaning to show cooperation but hide inner belief).”


In response; the Raafidah are of the false belief that they are the only ones who actualize this Aayah, as they alone are hiding true inner belief whilst the rest of the Ummah are Kuffar, but they wouldn’t openly proclaim it.

However, the Aayah is in fact a proof against this false belief.

We respond to them in various ways;

Firstly, the context of the Aayah is referring to those who show apparent belief, and not the hidden kind, as Allaah, the Most High, Said:

“Let not the believers take the disbelievers as Auliya (supporters, helpers, etc.) instead of the believers…”


Secondly, the scholars are agreed that this Aayah was revealed in al-Madeenah, therefore there was no need for the believers to hide their Emaan in this period. This is because the Kuffaar were not dominant over them after the Hijrah to al-Madeenah. This exactly the opposite of the Raafaidah (who appear to be Muslims and mix with the Ummah as if they are from them but they hide a hidden belief of Kufr and hatred to the Muslims).

Thirdly, the scholars of Tafseer are in agreement that this Aayah was revealed when some of the Muslims in al-Madeenah wished to cooperate with the Kuffaar (in order to protect their families and wealth) but this Aayah made it prohibited for them to do so.

The Raafidah are from those who show the greatest deceptions in this. They show love and cooperation with Ahl as-Sunnah (i.e. Muslims who are not Shia in general) and they do not oppose the religion of the Ummah openly.

Just as how the believers used to hide their beliefs with the Mushriks of Makkah and the People of the Book, whilst hiding an inner belief in Islaam and Emaan.
With this, we realise that the Raafidah are from the furthest of those who act upon this Aayah.

As for their quotation of the last part of the Aayah:

) إِلاَّ أَن تَتَّقُواْ مِنْهُمْ تُقَاةً (

“except if you indeed fear a danger from them (the word Tuqaa has been used, meaning to show cooperation but hide inner belief).”


Then Mujaahid said it means cooperation.

Therefore, the Aayah - in no way whatsoever – promotes lying or deception or any form of inner hatred or contrary belief. It does not promote that one says something with his tongue but hides something contrary in his heart; this would be clear Nifaaq (hypocrisy who are doomed to punishment in the lowest part of the Hellfire for eternity).

Rather the Aayah is proof that the believer cooperates in what is able to.
So hiding ones Emaan in times of weakness or duress is one thing, whereas proclaiming a false belief is something completely different (and this is what the Shia do).

The Raafidah (Shia) are exactly like the hypocrites. They are not under duress, nor do they hide belief, rather they make apparent Emaan but they hide Kufr (disbelief due to their corrupt beliefs).

In summary, there is a huge difference between openly lying and deceiving and hiding Emaan under duress until one is able to openly proclaim their beliefs in monotheism.
