		Shias believe that during the occultation of the Twelfth Imam, he is spiritually present--some believe that he is materially present as well--and he is besought to reappear in various invocations and prayers.

	Shia Sunni Dialog in Pakistan: Why and How
		Theological differences between Shia and Sunni are old and are better left for Allah to judge, as He knows best and has said that He is the final judge of religious disagreements (Quran 16:12).
		This is why it is important that dialog between Sunnis and Shias becomes a movement and a process throughout society instead of everyone waiting for one high powered dialog to yield some results at the leadership level.
		Shias on the other hand, since the 1979 Iranian revolution, are ordered by Imam Khumaini to pray behind these same Salafi imams instead of praying separately.

		Members in the late 1980s felt that the particular needs and customs of Shi’a Muslims were not being addressed in the larger Muslim community, so efforts were made to create a distinct and separate community.

		Although the center is relatively small and serves the needs primarily of the Shi’a, the community’s religious leader or Imam is highly visible with regard to the non-Muslim community.
