He is Mr. Youssef Sanei from Iran. Currently live in Qom. From what I read on last year, he is already been demoted from highest ranking scholar by the particular religious council in Iran. Why do I like him? Because his fatwas (religious verdicts/decree) are so liberal.
- He strongly against suicide bombing (which is just like a game for terrorist) and nuclear weapon (Iran doesn’t have nuclear weapon tho)
- He permitted beard shaving for men, cosmetic surgery, listening music and so on.
Another one who just like him is Ebrahim Jannati (Google it if curious)
The man with black turban above is Mr. Kazemeyni Boroujerdi. Currently residing in Evin Prison, Iran for the so called against the Iranian government. He advocates secular state. Just like me, he is also agreed that religion is being used by particular people to achieving their own interest.
I am always visiting website of various scholars and follow their opinion. That’s why I don’t have a particular marja’. I am mixing various opinion from several marja. The websites which I always referring about Islamic rulings are :
1 – Website of Seyed Mohammed Sa`eed Al-Hakeem [english.alhakeem.com]
2- Website of Seyed Ali Al-Sistani [www.sistani.org]
3- Website of Seyed Sadiq Al-Shirazi [imamshirazi.com]
4- Website of Hajj Shaykh Yusuf Saanei [www.saanei.org]
5- Website of Shaykh Ebrahim Jannati [www.jannaati.com]
6- Seyed Mohammed Sadiq Rohani [emamrohani.net]
As-Salam aleikum,
I’m a french shia and I went so many times to Malaysia -KL, Shah Alam, Kuantan and Kota Bharu- to learn seni silat gayong malaysia and Keris Lok Sembilan/senaman tua with Guru Azlan Ghanie. At that time i lived in Mindanao, Philippines
But I really appreciate malay people who are very nice and kind.
So I’m very happy to see the blog of a shia malay brother, who seems very rare in Malaysia, right?
Are you still in Malaysia or on Europe?
Salam & Do’a
