توضیحات
This work consists of some questions which I prepared for Muslim researchers – especially those Sunnis who maintain that they alone hold fast to the true practice of the Prophet (s). They are severe in their disapproval of other Muslims and call them derogatory names. New organizations have sprung up in several Islamic countries in the name of defending the Sunnah of Muhammad (s) and in the name of ‘the helpers of the Sunnah’ and ‘the helpers of the companions’. Numerous books have been published to insult and condemn the Shi’as, their Imams and to ridicule their scholars. These ideas have been propagated, by international means of communications, to every part of the world – Muslim and non-Muslim – to the point where people today speak [only] of the Sunnis and the Shi’as.
On many occasions, I meet some young, truthful, Muslim scholars who enquire and ask questions about the Shi’as, i.e., the true and false [notions] about them. They are perplexed in reconciling what they observe while living amongst their Shi’a friends with what they hear and read about them. They do not know where the truth lies. I have spoken to some of them and have presented them with copies of my book ‘Then I was Guided’. Praise be to Allah, the majority of them, after researching and debating, are guided to the truth and follow it. This, however, does not suffice for those youths whom I meet coincidentally or for those who do not have such opportunities to meet and therefore remain confused regarding the conflicting ideas they are exposed to.
Despite the convincing proofs and irrefutable arguments [cited] in ‘Then I was Guided’, and ‘To beWith the Truthful ones’, these two books are not sufficient to combat the frenzied attacks and crude allegations [instigated] by various means of propaganda that some of the wicked sources have financed by their petro dollars.
Despite all this, however, the voice of truth will emerge in the midst of this discomforting uproar and it will be a glowing light shining in the gloom of darkness since the promise of Allah is true, and it will certainly manifest itself. Allah says: ‘They seek to extinguish Allah’s light by their mouths, but Allah will perfect this light even though the disbelievers hate that’ (61:8). Allah further explains that their acts will fail and will rebound on them: ‘Verily, those who disbelieve spend their wealth in hindering [people from] the path of Allah, they will continue to spend; then they will regret therein. Ultimately, they will be overcome and the disbelievers will be gathered in hell’ (8:36).
Due to this, it is essential for the scholars, writers and thinkers to explain to the lay persons what is difficult for them [to comprehend] and to guide them to the right path. The most exalted says:
‘Those who seek to conceal the clear [signs] which We have revealed and guided – after we have clearly explained it for the people in the book – Allah will curse them as will those who are entitled to curse. Except those who repent, make amends and make clear [that which they sought to hide]. Towards them I shall turn, for I am the Forgiving, the Merciful'(2:160).
Why don’t the scholars discuss this topic diligently and sincerely for Allah’s sake? Why [should they not do this] when the most Glorious has revealed the clear signs and guidance, perfected His religion and completed His favors on humankind? When the Prophet (s) has fulfilled Allah’s mission to him, proclaimed His message and advised the ummah, then why this disunity, enmity, hatred and calling derogatory names and each party considering the other to be a disbeliever?
In my role, I have to take an unequivocal position here and to declare to all Muslims, that there can be no salvation, no safety, no unity, no happiness, and no paradise unless we return to the two basic sources: Allah’s book and the Prophet’s household (peace be upon them). [Nothing can be attained] unless we embark on the ship of salvation, the ship of the Ahl al-Bayt (as). This statement is not something that I have conjured up; rather, it is the word of Allah in the noble Qur’an and His Prophet (s) in the honorable Prophetic Sunnah. The Muslims today have two options to attain the desired unity:
The first approach: The Ahl al-Sunnah wa’l -Jama’a accept the madhab (school of thought) of the household of the Prophet which is the madhab that the Ithna’ Ashari Imami Shi’as follow. This madhab would then be classified as a fifth madhab to them (the Sunnis), and they could then treat its jurisprudential texts in the same way that they do with the other four Islamic schools. They should not disparage it nor deride those who embrace it.They should give the educated students the freedom to choose the madhab which they are satisfied with. And, by the same token, it is incumbent upon every Muslim – Sunni and Shi’a – that they recognize the other Islamic madhabs, such as the Ibadiyya and the Zaydiyya. This approach is a remedy for many of the conflicts and differences that affect our ummah, but it still does not present a complete cure for the historical discord we have endured for centuries.
The second approach: The Muslims should unite under a common creed as dictated by Allah and His Prophet (s). They should do so in one way and on the right path, which is to follow the Imams of the Ahl al-Bayt, [they are] those from whom Allah has removed all filth and has purified them completely. Indeed, all Muslims – Shi’as and Sunnis – agree upon their acts and their superiority in their piety, virtue, asceticism, character, knowledge and good deeds.
Since the Muslims differ regarding the companions, they should leave what they differ on in favor of what they agree upon in compliance with the hadith of the Prophet (s): ‘Keep away from what casts doubt in you in favor of what does not make you doubtful’. By doing this, the Muslim ummah would come together and unite based on a fundamental rule that forms the pivot around which everything revolves, [a principle] established by the Prophet (s) when he said: ‘I leave amongst you two weighty things, if you stick to them, you will never go astray: the book of Allah and my Ahl al-Bayt’ [cited in] Sahih Muslim.
Since this hadith is accepted by both sects, in fact by all Muslims regardless of their different madhab, why is it that a faction amongst them does not act in accordance to it? If all the Muslims were to follow this hadith, such strong Islamic unity would be fostered between them that no breeze could shake it, no storm destroy it, no propagation could refute it, and no enemy of Islam could thwart it.
In my view, this is the only solution towards the salvation and safety of the Muslims. Any other approach is futile and [is tantamount to] embellished words. Whoever studies the Qur’an and the Prophet’s traditions, as well as studies history and reflects upon it with a sound mind will certainly agree with me.
The first approach has failed since the first day the Prophet (s) left us when the companions differed amongst themselves resulting in the division of the Muslim ummah and the destruction of the bonds of solidarity. The ummah has failed throughout the centuries to revert to the second approach which is the adherence to the book and the Prophet’s household (as). This is due to the propaganda spread earlier by the Umayyad and ‘Abbasid dynasties, and, in our times, because of the defamation, misrepresentation and condemnation of the followers of the Ahl al-Bayt of the Prophet. There remains for us then nothing else but a clear approach and a disclosure of the truth for all who wish to know it. This can be done in the style of the noble Qur’an in its challenge: ‘Come forth with your proof if you are indeed telling the truth’ (2:111).
Clear proof and argument will never be subjugated by force or wealth; neither can they be refuted by warnings and threats. [This is true] for free human beings who have pledged themselves to Allah alone. They have never deviated – and will never do so – from the truth, even if they lose their lives.
If only the modern day scholars of the ummah were to organize a conference to examine these matters with open hearts, astute minds, and pure consciences. They would, by doing so, serve the Muslim ummah, assemble its scattered fragments, heal its wounds, unite its ranks and bring together its [different] views.
This unity will come, [whether they] like it or not, for Allah, Glory be to Him, has reserved, for that purpose, an Imam from the progeny of al-Mustafa (the chosen one) who will fill the earth with justice and equity, just as it was filled with oppression and tyranny. This Imam is from the purified loins. It is as though Allah, great is His wisdom, tests this ummah throughout its life span until, when the time is near, He reveals to it the errors it has committed and gives it an opportunity to return to the truth and follow the original path which Muhammad (s) called to when he supplicated: ‘O Allah, guide my people for indeed they do not know.
Until that time comes, I present my book, ‘Ask those who know’. It is a collection of questions and answers based on the views and the teachings of the Imams of the Ahl al-Bayt (as). Hopefully, the Muslims in every Islamic country will benefit from it and work towards the concordance of views in preparation of the coveted unity.
My success is from Allah. Upon Him I rely and to Him I turn. My Lord, expand my breast and make my affairs easy for me [to handle]. Loosen the knots on my tongue so that my words can be understood. I ask Him, Glory be to Him, the most exalted one, to accept my work and make it [a source of] virtue and blessing, for it is only a stone in the building of a united body.
I say this because the contemporary Muslims are still very far away from realizing basic human rights and working harmoniously with each other. I realized this first hand during my travels and numerous visits to the Muslim countries or in the countries where there are Muslims [residing]. The latest was in the Indian subcontinent which has a population of over 200 million Muslims, a quarter of whom are Shi’as and three quarters are Sunnis. I had heard a lot about them, but what I witnessed really perplexed and astonished me. It also made me fearful. I was saddened and I wept over the path this ummah has taken. Were it not for my hope, wishes and faith, despair would have overcome my heart.
Immediately after my return from India, I sent an open letter to an Indian scholar who the Ahl al-Sunnah wal-Jamaa in that subcontinent refers to, Abul- Hasan ‘Ali al-Nadawi. I promised him that I would publish this letter and his reply. So far, however, I have not received a reply. I have published my letter in the introduction to this book in its original form so that it acts as an historical testimony which will bear witness for us in front of Allah and the people that we are amongst those who enjoined unity.

ترجمه ماشینی :
این اثر مشتمل بر سؤالاتی است که برای محققین مسلمان – به ویژه آن دسته از اهل سنت که معتقدند تنها خودشان به سیره واقعی پیامبر (ص) پایبند هستند، آماده کردم. آنها در نارضایتی خود نسبت به سایر مسلمانان شدید هستند و آنها را با القاب تحقیر آمیز می نامند. تشکیلات جدیدی در چندین کشور اسلامی به نام دفاع از سنت محمدی (ص) و به نام یاران اهل سنت و یاوران صحابه به وجود آمده است. کتابهای متعددی برای توهین و محکومیت شیعیان و امامانشان و تمسخر علمای آنان منتشر شده است. این عقاید از طریق وسایل ارتباطی بین المللی در همه جای جهان – مسلمان و غیر مسلمان – تبلیغ شده است تا جایی که امروزه مردم [فقط] از اهل سنت و شیعه صحبت می کنند. بارها با برخی از دانشمندان جوان راستگو و مسلمان ملاقات میکنم که درباره شیعیان، یعنی درستی و نادرستی [عقاید] شیعیان سؤال میکنند. آنها در تطبیق آنچه در میان دوستان شیعه خود مشاهده می کنند با آنچه در مورد آنها می شنوند و می خوانند گیج می شوند. آنها نمی دانند حقیقت کجاست. من با برخی از آنها صحبت کرده ام و نسخه هایی از کتابم “سپس هدایت شدم” به آنها تقدیم کرده ام. الحمدلله اکثر آنان پس از تحقیق و مناظره به حق هدایت می شوند و از آن پیروی می کنند. با این حال، این برای جوانانی که من تصادفاً با آنها ملاقات می کنم یا برای کسانی که چنین فرصتی برای ملاقات ندارند و بنابراین در مورد ایده های متناقضی که در معرض آنها قرار می گیرند سردرگم می مانند، کافی نیست. علیرغم دلایل قانع کننده و دلایل انکارناپذیر [استناد شده] در «سپس هدایت شدم»، و «با صدیقین باشم»، این دو کتاب برای مبارزه با حملات جنون آمیز و ادعاهای رکیک [به راههای مختلف] کافی نیستند. تبلیغاتی که برخی از منابع شرور با دلارهای پتروی خود تأمین مالی کرده اند. با همه اینها، صدای حق در میان این هیاهوی ناراحت کننده ظاهر می شود و نوری درخشان خواهد بود که در ظلمت تاریکی می درخشد زیرا وعده خدا حق است و قطعاً خود را آشکار خواهد کرد. خداوند می فرماید: آنها می خواهند نور خدا را با دهان خود خاموش کنند، ولی خداوند این نور را کامل می کند، هر چند کافران از آن بیزار باشند (61:8). خداوند در ادامه بیان میکند که اعمالشان شکست میخورد و بر آنها باز میگردد: «کسانی که کافر شدهاند، اموال خود را در راه بازداشتن [مردم از] راه خدا انفاق میکنند، همچنان به انفاق میپردازند. سپس در آن پشیمان خواهند شد. سرانجام بر آنان غلبه خواهند کرد و کافران در دوزخ محشور خواهند شد» (8:36). از این رو، بر علما، نویسندگان و متفکران ضروری است که آنچه را که برای مردم دشوار است، توضیح دهند و آنان را به راه راست هدایت کنند. حق تعالى مى فرماید: کسانى که مى خواهند نشانه هاى آشکارى را که ما نازل کرده ایم و هدایت کرده ایم کتمان کنند، پس از آنکه آن را براى مردم در کتاب به روشنى بیان کردیم، خداوند آنان را لعنت مى کند و لعنت مى کند. . مگر کسانی که توبه کردند و اصلاح کردند و آشکار ساختند. به سوی آنها روی میآورم که من آمرزنده و مهربانم» (2:160). چرا علما برای رضای خدا این موضوع را مجدانه و خالصانه مطرح نمی کنند؟ چرا [این کار را نکنند] در حالی که سبحان آیات و هدایت آشکار را نازل کرده و دین خود را کامل کرده و نعمت خود را بر مردم تمام کرده است؟ وقتی پیامبر(ص) رسالت خدا را بر او انجام داد و رسالت خود را ابلاغ کرد و امت را نصیحت کرد، پس چرا این اختلاف و دشمنی و کینه و نامهای اهانت آمیز میشود و هر یک از طرفین، دیگری را کافر میدانند؟ من در نقش خود باید موضعی صریح داشته باشم و به همه مسلمانان اعلام کنم که هیچ رستگاری، امنیت، اتحاد، سعادت و بهشت وجود ندارد مگر اینکه به دو منبع اصلی بازگردیم: کتاب و اهل بیت پیامبر (صلی الله علیه و آله و سلم). [هیچ چیزی به دست نمی آید] مگر اینکه سوار کشتی نجات، کشتی اهل بیت علیهم السلام شویم. این بیانیه چیزی نیست که من تصور کرده باشم. بلکه کلام خدا در قرآن کریم و پیامبرش در سنت شریف نبوی است. مسلمانان امروز برای رسیدن به وحدت مطلوب دو راه دارند: \ رویکرد اول: اهل سنت و جماعت، مکتب اهل بیت پیامبر را می پذیرند که همان مذاهب است. اتناع اشعری شیعه امامیه پیروی می کنند. سپس این مذب برای آنها (اهل سنت) به عنوان یک مذب پنجم طبقه بندی می شود و آنها می توانند با متون فقهی آن مانند چهار مکتب اسلامی دیگر رفتار کنند. آنها نباید آن را تحقیر کنند و کسانی را که آن را می پذیرند، تمسخر نکنند. آنها باید به طلاب تحصیل کرده این آزادی را بدهند که مذهبی را که از آن راضی هستند انتخاب کنند. و به همین ترتیب، بر هر مسلمان – سنی و شیعه – واجب است که سایر مذاهب اسلامی مانند اباضیه و زیدیه را بشناسد. این رویکرد علاج بسیاری از درگیری ها و اختلافاتی است که بر امت ما تأثیر می گذارد، اما هنوز درمان کاملی برای اختلاف تاریخی که قرن ها متحمل شده ایم ارائه نمی دهد. رویکرد دوم: مسلمانان باید تحت یک عقیده مشترک به دستور خداوند و پیامبرش متحد شوند. آنها باید به یک طریق و در راه راست، یعنی پیروی از ائمه اهل بیت(ع) این
