	Shi'a Islam - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Shi'a Muslims adhere to what they consider to be the true teachings of the Islamic prophet Muhammad and his Ahlul Bayt (family).
		Shi'a Muslims believe that Muhammad's family (the Imams) were the best source of knowledge about the Qur'an, Islam, and Emulation (the best-qualified teachers of Islam after Muhammad), and the most trusted carriers and protectors of Muhammad's Sunnah (traditions).
		Shi'a Islam holds that the Imamate is one of the fundamentals of Islam (A part of the Usul-Ad-din) and that one should follow the Imams of Ahlul Bayt, in order to correctly follow the Prophet Muhammad and his Sunnah.

	ShaikhSiddiqui Shia
		Shias revere Ali as the First Imam, and his descendants, beginning with his sons Hasan and Husayn, continue the line of the Imams until the twelfth, who is believed to have ascended into a supernatural state to return to earth on Judgment Day.
		Shia attempts to challenge the Umayyad leaders resulted in the death of Ali’s son and the third Shia Imam, Husayn, at the Battle of Karbala in 680.
		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.

	The Origins of the Sunni/Shia split in Islam
		Shia theology is distinguished by its glorification of Ali.
		Shias also form a majority of the population in Yemen and Azerbaijan and 40 to 50% of the population of Iraq.
		Muslims must know this, and ought to refrain from unjust prejudice to any particular school of thought, since the religion of Allah and His Divine Law (Shari'ah) was never restricted to a particular school of thought.

	Shiites, Shia, Shi'a
		A key event in the history of the Shia and for all Muslims was the tragic death at Karbala of Husayn, the son of Ali, and Muhammad's daughter Fatima.
		Although not all Muslims are Shia Muslims, all Muslims view Husayn as a martyr for living up to his principles even to death.
		The Shia Muslims believe that Muhammad designated all 12 successors by name and that they inherited a special knowledge of the true meaning of the scripture that was passed from father to son, beginning with the Prophet himself.

	About The Ismaili Imamat and Origins of Shiism
