Abstract: (1491 Views) |
Ibn Taymiyyah (the founder of the Salaf school in the Islamic world) is one of the personalities who, in dealing with dissenting opinions, condemns them to takfir, advises them to repent, and if they refuse, orders them to be killed. Shiites, meanwhile, are among those condemned to excommunication. The issue of research is how Ibn Taymiyyah, despite the primary and successive sources, in the Sunni narrative communities that exist to prove the legitimacy of the Shiite religion, excommunicate this school and view it as degenerated. The present research has been carried out using the library research method and with an analytical-descriptive approach, and the findings of the research in the analysis of Ibn Taymiyyah's thought show that he either does not provide any case for his claim, or If he mentions an example, he introduces the Shiites as forgers of hadith who have used weak narrations. However, Sunni narrative and historical sources are full of citations that challenge his view of the excommunication of the Shiites.
