In my statement - both opening & in Correction & apology, I accepted Fundamental beliefs of all muslims.
In the 7 Fundaments and Affirmation are confirmed your Fundamental beliefs to 5 Pillars, even though the sunni sahada (affirmation) is based on a hearsay of a thief & liar - Abu Hurraira and, nowhere in the quran will one find an aya saying that Islam is based on 5 Pillars. It is, short & simple, a creation of the sunnis or sunni-specific belief.
Now, the problem has surfaced with you guys demanding that all muslims subscribe to your 5 Pillars & the sahada - attributed to a thief & a liar.
Amongst the 7 fundamentals - the most contested pillars and rejected by the sunnis are:
Jehad
Walaya
Taharah
i)Pristine wants to know where in the quran is Jehad mandated upon muslims?
If you, guys, do not consider Jehad as a Fundamental - that is fine. There are others who do include Jehad as a fundamental. And, Jehad is both an internal & external struggle. The contemporary Jehad should be against Ignorance & poverty.
ii)Pristine is unaware of 'Religious Authority' or Imam in Quran but he is aware of this hadith from Bukhari that he quoted in the thread: Who is Ali?
There is a hadith (closest meaning)
"And those of you, who die, without taking baiyat (promise on the hands) of a Khalifa, die the death of the days of jahaliyat" (Bukhari). This hadith refers to the fact that as an Ummah, mulims must have their leader or Imam whom the whole Ummah follows.
This hadith above was quoted by Pristine and is explaining these 2 ayas of Quran also quoted to Pristine in the thread:WHO IS ALI?
[an-Nisa' 4:59] O ye who believe! Obey Allah, and obey the messenger and those of you who are in authority; and if ye have a dispute concerning any matter, refer it to Allah and the messenger if ye are (in truth) believers in Allah and the Last Day. That is better and more seemly in the end.
[bani Isra'il 17:71] One day We shall call together all human beings with their (respective) Imams: those who are given their record in their right hand will read it (with pleasure), and they will not be dealt with unjustly in the least.
You see, my friends - Rejecting shia, sufi & ismaili, bori fundamentals are essential for extremist sunni Islam.
iii) Lastly, the Fundamentals of tahara which is all about Spiritual Islam - serving & pleasing Allah is rejected by sunnis because they are unaware about it [spiritual islam] in the Quran.
Bottom line - they want all to follow their innovated beliefs as outlined in the Bukhari!
Guess who is causing all the trouble in the muslim world?
It's certainly not the shias, sufi or ismailiyas or boris; its the extremist elements of Sunni Islam along with their financiers - the Wahabis.
