Description

This wallpaper is to celebrate the birth of Imam Ali al-Reza.

He is the 8th Imam according to the Shia Islamic tradition. He was a great teacher, leader and philosopher and was widely acclaimed by ALL faiths during his life for his ability to answer every set question to him.

I went to visit his shrine in the city of Mashad, Iran in 2005.

Hope you all like it, feedback and comments plz

The Caliphs were the Caliphs.

The Ali controversy bet Sunni & Shiite is one reason why people should not convert to Islam. (well, I also do NOT believe in eternal damnation.)

If Allah did not approve of the succession after Ali, then He should have said so directly.

The Caliphs were the Caliphs.

Shia practices:
(1) Whipping oneself bloody in public. Insane.
(2) Parading around or having a picture in one's home of Ali's severed head stuck on a stick , dribbling blood from the mouth and with a red hole in the forehead, is also insane and should NOT be done.
