We can't trust these "SHIA" scholars! (Ft. Sayed Mahdi Modarresi)
This week, Sayed Mahdi al-Modaressi returns to confront questions that continue to stir quiet - and sometimes not-so-quiet - controversy from pockets within the community. From differing views on the birth of Imam al-Mahdi (ajfs) to the boundaries of infallibility, and even the uncomfortable question of potential corruption within the hawza, no topic is off-limits. These are issues some shy away from. Others call them red lines.Where do you stand?We urge all listeners to seek guidance and search for truth, with an open heart and intellectual maturity - and not to take words of any scholar or mentor for gospel. All views expressed in this episode are reflective of the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of the hosts, nor After Maghrib.
