A Research Study of Shia Beliefs: The Issue of Quranic Distortion, Imamate, and Hadith and Sunnah

This excerpt is taken from Sheikh Irshad Ullah Maan's book The Search for Truth.


Beliefs of the Shia:​


The belief of the Shia Ithna Ashari regarding the Holy Quran, which is found explicitly stated in their primary foundational book
Reference: Al-Kafi: authored by Kulayni
and continues to be mentioned in the writings of contemporary Shia scholars including the present Imam Khomeini, as well as in their tafsirs, is that immediately after the passing of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, his companions made numerous distortions and alterations in the Quran according to their own will to fulfill their impure intentions and usurp the rights of Sayyidina Ali رضي الله عنه. This Quran is not the original Quran that was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, (معاذ اللہ!). That Quran was only compiled by Sayyidina Ali رضي الله عنه and is currently with Imam al-Zaman (Imam al-Asr, the Hidden Imam Mahdi), who has been in occultation since 260 AH but is alive. When he appears, he will bring out the original Quran.

The doctrine of Imamat, enmity and hatred towards the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them), and the distortion of the Quran—these three beliefs have completely separated the Shia followers from Ahl al-Sunnah wa al-Jama'ah, and now there appears to be no common ground between them and Islam or Muslims. Besides this, they call upon others besides Allah, which has been explained in great detail in Tawheed fi al-Ibadat and Shirk fi al-Ibadat. And these people consider Sayyidina Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) as one who removes difficulties and fulfills needs, and the Hanafi Barelvis share this belief with them. However, Abu Talib, who was the real uncle of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and the father of Sayyidina Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), died as a disbeliever and is in Hellfire; this is stated in the Quran.
Reference: (Al-Qasas:56), (At-Tawbah:113)
According to the majority of commentators, these two verses were revealed about Abu Talib.
Reference: (See the translation by Ahmad Raza Khan Sahib and Tafsir Muradabadi)
This issue is mentioned in Bukhari and Muslim and also in Hanafi fiqh books. It is proven that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and Sayyidina Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) are not ones who remove difficulties or fulfill needs. The incident of Karbala is before us, in which the entire family of Sayyidina Hussain (may Allah be pleased with him) and all the companions of Sayyidina Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) were martyred in the battlefield of Karbala. This incident also proves that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and Sayyidina Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) are not ones who remove difficulties or fulfill needs; rather, these people have given themselves these titles, although fulfilling needs and removing difficulties is solely within the power of Allah Almighty.

The True Form of Shia Beliefs:


The most important revelation is that Shiism itself is a separate religion that, in every matter including the declaration of faith, fundamental beliefs, pillars, acts of worship, jurisprudential sect, etc., teaches a doctrine that is contrary to, parallel with, and distinct from the Quran and Sunnah in detail, and Islam and Shiism do not coincide anywhere. Therefore, it is a very great and dangerous mistake, and will be, rather the correct statement is that it would be deceiving other Muslims to say that the followers of the Shia religion are a sect of Islam. The entire foundation of Islamic teachings is the prophethood and finality of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, the Quran revealed to him ﷺ, and the Sunnah and Hadith of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. The Shia hold a completely separate sect and belief in these three matters, the details of which are as follows.

[1] The Belief in the Distortion of the Quran:


The belief of the Shia Ithna Ashari regarding the Holy Quran, which is found in their primary foundational book
Reference: Al-Kafi: authored by Kulayni
and continues to be stated openly in the works of the present-day Shia, including the writings of Imam Khomeini, is that immediately after the passing of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, his companions made numerous distortions and alterations in the Quran according to their own desires to usurp the rights of Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him). This Quran is not the original Quran that was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, (معاذ اللہ!). That Quran was only compiled by Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) and is currently with Imam al-Zaman (Imam al-Asr, the Hidden Imam Mahdi), who has been in occultation since 260 AH but is alive. When he appears, he will bring out the original Quran. From the present Quran, everything that was revealed regarding the rights of the Ahl al-Muhammad ﷺ, about Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) becoming the first caliph (the undisputed caliph), and about the Imamate of Ali and his progeny, including the names of the Imams, has all been removed. Numerous verses have been distorted and altered and written into this Quran.

[2] Rejecting Hadith and Sunnah:


The Hadith and Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ are the interpretation and explanation of the Holy Quran. Hadith refers to the sayings and instructions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and Sunnah refers to his actions, as well as the practical form of the actions performed by his companions, may Allah be pleased with them.

The narrators who initially conveyed both Hadith and Sunnah could only have been the companions of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, just like those who conveyed the Holy Quran, and indeed they were. In the light of Hadith and Sunnah, not only is the correct intention, meaning, and interpretation of the Holy Quran determined, but there are also thousands of detailed issues in the religion of Islam whose explanations are found only in the Hadith and Sunnah of the Noble Prophet ﷺ. In this regard, the path of the Shia is completely different and separate from Islam. The Shia, while practicing Taqiyya, do mention Hadith and Sunnah, but in reality, their true meaning of Hadith and Sunnah is not the sayings and actions of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, whose first narrators could and were the companions of the Prophet ﷺ. Rather, according to the Shia, since all the companions of the Prophet ﷺ except three or four are considered unreliable, usurpers, hypocrites, greedy, selfish, apostates, and disbelievers (نعوذ باللہ!) who even altered the Quran itself, then how can the Hadith be trusted? Then the Shia have their own separately compiled books of Hadith whose final chain of narration is not the noble person of the Prophet ﷺ but the Shia Imams, and by Sunnah and Hadith they mean those narrations recorded in their books attributed to the names of the Imams. It seems appropriate here to compare the famous books of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ’s Hadith in Islam, known as the Kutub al-Sitta, with the authentic books of Shia narrations, which they call
Reference: Usul Arba'ah
, so that the true reality can be fully clarified.

Famous Books of Hadith in Islam:


[1] Muwatta Imam Malik, by Imam Malik bin Anas. Born 95 AH, died 179 AH.

[2] Sahih Bukhari, by Imam Abu Abdullah Muhammad bin Ismail Bukhari. Born 194 AH, died 256 AH.

[3] Sahih Muslim, by Imam Hafiz Muslim bin Hajjaj al-Qushayri. Born 204 AH, died 261 AH.

[4] Jami' Tirmidhi, by Imam Abu Isa Muhammad bin Musa. Born 209 AH, died 279 AH.

[5] Sunan Abu Dawood, by Imam Abu Dawood Sulaiman bin al-Ash'ath. Born 202 AH, died 275 AH.

[6] Sunan Nasa'i, by Imam Abu Abdul Rahman Ahmad bin Shu'ayb. Born 212 AH, died 303 AH.

[7] Sunan Ibn Majah, by Abu Abdullah Muhammad bin Yazid. Born 209 AH, died 273 AH.

Famous Books of Traditions Attributed to the Imams in Shia Religion (Usul Arba'ah):


[1] Al-Jami' al-Kafi, by Abu Ja'far Muhammad bin Ya'qub al-Kulayni al-Razi. Died 328 AH. Recently published in Iran in 1391 AH in 8 volumes.

[2] Man La Yahduruhu al-Faqih, by Muhammad bin Ali Ibn Babawayh al-Qummi. Died 381 AH. Recently also published in Iran in 1390 AH, in four volumes.

[3] Istibsar, by Abu Ja'far Muhammad ibn Hasan Tusi. Died 460 AH. Recently published in four volumes from Iran in 1390 AH.

[4] Tahdhib al-Ahkam, by Abu Ja'far Muhammad ibn Hasan Tusi. Died 460 AH. Recently also published in ten volumes from Iran in 1390 AH.

The belief in the distortion and alteration of the Quran regarding the Shia is well known among the public, but they have also rejected the Hadiths of the Holy Prophet ﷺ. Most of our scholars are unaware of this fact, and I myself discovered this when I examined their original fundamental books, which I have briefly introduced here.

[3] The Definitive Form of Denial of Finality of Prophethood:


Considering the previously stated facts, the issue of finality of prophethood in Shia belief is as follows:

[1] According to the Shia, the Holy Quran is distorted and altered.

[2] They reject the Hadiths of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ and have thousands of parallel narrations under the names of Imams, which are contrary to the clear teachings of the Holy Quran and the mutawatir Hadiths of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, and the entire structure of the Shia religion is the practical form of these narrations.

[3] According to their belief, all the companions of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, whose number is approximately one hundred and twenty thousand,

Among them, except for Sayyidina Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), Sayyidina Hussain (may Allah be pleased with him), and four other individuals, all others immediately became apostates and disbelievers after the death of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. (نعوذ باللہ من شر ذلک) The Shias have rendered the entire twenty-three-year prophetic life of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ useless, which means that they have declared the coming of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ as the last Prophet to be futile and fruitless. (العیاذ باللہ!) Then, where the very concept of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ being sent as the last Prophet becomes useless, how can the true concept of the finality of prophethood exist in this religion? The belief is out of the question.

The reality is that in the Shia religion, a position called Imamate has been invented, which is considered superior and higher than prophethood, and in the presence of this, the belief in the finality of prophethood of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ becomes such that even its empty concept cannot be found.

[4] The explicit disbelief of each of these beliefs of the Shias:


Everyone knows that the unanimous fatwa of the scholars of the entire world is that Qadianis are not Muslims, because they deny an important fundamental belief of Islam, the Finality of Prophethood, and they consider Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Qadiani as a prophet after the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and believe that revelation came to him. So it is clear that where there is a belief in the distortion of the Quran, prophethood in the name of Imamat, and the rejection of the Hadiths of the Holy Prophet ﷺ, then how can it be correct to call those people a sect of Islam or Muslims, or for those people to call themselves a sect of Muslims? This is such a simple and easy question that even an ordinary Muslim will not take long to answer it, provided he has correct knowledge of these facts or has been informed of the correct facts. Similarly, regarding the Shias, it is also established that from the early period, the eminent scholars of our Islamic world have issued fatwas declaring them outside Islam. These three points, which have been explained in the "True Form of Shia Beliefs," besides these, there is also a unanimous fatwa among the scholars of Ahl al-Sunnah that whoever calls the Companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ disbelievers and apostates is himself a disbeliever, because the Holy Quran praises the Companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on numerous occasions and for them the Messenger of Allah ﷺ's...

There are clear words in authentic hadiths. There are also many glad tidings from their names. Then, speaking ill of these pure personalities would necessitate the denial of countless verses of the Quran and the hadiths of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and this is explicitly disbelief.

[5] The Astonishing Ignorance of Our Scholars:


After learning all this and becoming familiar with the true form of the Shia religion, it was natural for me to wonder what our scholars of Islam have done and are doing about this great fitna (trial)? What have they written and what are they writing? But my astonishment knew no bounds when I saw that except for a few scholars, who are well aware of the true form and facts of the Shia religion and are certainly devoting all their efforts through sermons and speeches, the rest of the scholars remain completely ignorant and silent spectators on this matter. Most scholars have hardly as much knowledge about the true reality of the Shia religion, their beliefs, scholarly sources, jurisprudence, history of Shia Islam, etc., as an average middle-level Muslim does. Even in Islamic seminaries, there is excellent organization for teaching logic and philosophy, arrangements (to some extent) to counter the Qadiani fitna, and arrangements for teaching the belief in the finality of prophethood, but understanding such a great fitna as Shiaism, being aware of Khomeini Sahib’s destructive expansionist ambitions for the Muslim world, how Shiaism is being spread in Pakistan under internal and external pressures, what role the radio and television administrations are playing in this (it is not necessary to personally watch TV for this), what is published in newspapers and magazines, which Shia books, magazines, bulletins, or advertisements are being published or broadcast and reaching Muslim homes free of cost and without addresses. On the other hand, in Sunni scholars’ libraries, the fundamental voluminous books of the Shias are not available, let alone the old and famous books of prominent Sunni scholars, such as Tuhfa Ithna Ashariya in Persian and its Urdu translation by Shah Abdul Aziz Muhaddith Dehlvi (may Allah have mercy on him), Ayat Bayanat by Nawab Syed Muhammad Mehdi Ali, Nasihat al-Shia by Hazrat Maulana Ehtishamuddin Muradabadi, Tuhfat al-Wahhab by Hazrat Maulana Abdul Wahab Gilani (in Sindhi), One Hundred Questions to the Shia (in Urdu and Sindhi), etc. Even where they exist, they are only kept as ornaments in libraries. Who needs to open and study them to see what is written about Shiaism in them? (انا للہ وانا الیہ راجعون) The obvious result is that most of our respected scholars, or rather, except for a few scholars who are constantly engaged in uprooting this great fitna, all other scholars have as much knowledge about Shiaism as an average middle-level Muslim, and what can be expected from those few scholars when they do not even have the moral support of the rest of the scholars. The situation is such that some scholars, driven by worldly greed, attend Shia gatherings and participate in Shia programs on radio and television, playing a prominent role in promoting Shiaism and thus becoming harmful to Islam. Here, I also find it necessary to clarify that as far as my research study is concerned, from the beginning until today, only two religions have emerged under the conspiracy against Islam and Muslims in the name of Islam: one is Shiaism and the other is Qadianism, both of which contradict every aspect of Islam (Quran, Sunnah, and the finality of prophethood) in writing, and both these religions are fully documented against Islam. Among these two religions, Shiaism holds precedence for the following two reasons:

[1] The sect of Shi'ism in Islam is older and the first among all other sectarian trials. It originated in the first century Hijri, and there have been governments of its followers. Therefore, the followers of this sect have had and still have excessive ease and privileges in inventing and composing everything against Islam.

[2] The Shia sect is the first religion in the world in the name of Islam whose authors have altered the Quran itself to prove and claim that the Quran has been distorted. Their primary and most authentic first book
Reference: Kitab al-Kafi by Kulayni
(whose author died in 328 Hijri) proves the belief in Imamate through the distortion of the Holy Quran. (العیاذ باللہ!)

These Shias, in order to prove their self-fabricated belief of the distortion of the Quran, themselves altered the Quran and fabricated numerous verses, claiming that certain verses of the Quran, when revealed, contained the names of Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) and the Five Pure Ones, and mentioned Imamate. However, after the death of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, those who usurped the deputyship, Imamate, caliphate, and governance of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ (نعوذ باللہ!) removed such words and verses from the Quran. Therefore, in the present Quran, there is no mention of the Imamate and caliphate of Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) or the Imamate and caliphate in his progeny. This is the real background behind the need for the authors of the Shia sect to invent the belief in the distortion of the Quran.

[3] Observe a few examples of distortion and alteration in a comparative form in the popular translation of the Twelver Shia with commentary:

At present, I have two copies of
Reference: Maqubool Tafseer wa Tarjuma ma' Hashiya
before me. One copy is the third edition consisting of 944 pages. The other copy is the fifth edition, published in Lahore, and it has 1306 pages. This translation is a literal translation of the Holy Quran according to Shia Ithna Ashari. In its margins, detailed explanatory notes in Urdu are written mostly in the form of narrations from the Imams. On the title page, the name of the translator and commentator of the book is written as Maulana Molvi Hakeem Syed Maqbool Ahmad Shah Sahib Dehlavi. The Shia Mujtahid and commentator, in writing the margins of this Tafseer, has taken references from the most authentic and reliable fundamental books of the Ithna Ashari Shias: these are:
Reference: Al-Kafi, Al-Safi, Sharh Nahj al-Balagha, Amali, Majma' al-Bayan, 'Ilal al-Shara'i, Al-Jawami', Tafseer Ayyashi, Tafseer Qummi, Kitab al-Tawhid, Al-Ma'ani, Akhbar al-Ridha, Ikmal, Al-Ihtijaj, Tafseer Imam Hasan Askari (attributed to the Imam), Fasl al-Khitab, Rawdat al-Wa'izin, Minhaj al-Sadiqin
etc. etc.

You know that the explanation and interpretation of the Holy Quran was given by the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ himself, and the books of Hadith are the evidence of this. But among the above eighteen books, do you find the name of any of the six most authentic Hadith books: Sahih Bukhari, Sahih Muslim, Jami' Tirmidhi, Sunan Abu Dawood, Sunan Nasa'i, and Sunan Ibn Majah? If not, then this situation is sufficient to prove the fact that the foundations of the Shia religion are not based on the Hadiths of the Prophet ﷺ, but rather they are fabricated narrations which the authors of the Shia religion themselves have forged and attributed to the Imams. These include mentions of the distortion of the Holy Quran itself, the principle of concealment and Taqiyya for the Imams, and the Imams being described as like the Prophet ﷺ, and so on.

I have given this popular Tafsir and translation the highest rank in proving the Shia belief in the distortion of the Quran for the following special reasons:

[1] This is a popular translation and exegesis of the Holy Quran in the Indian subcontinent, written in Urdu by a Shia Ithna Ashari Mujtahid and exegete in 1331 Hijri corresponding to 1913 AD, and it was published five times until 1955. After that, there is no information about how many times it was printed. This proves that this exegesis is considered by all Shia scholars of the Indian subcontinent, whether Urdu-speaking or Sindhi-speaking, as a true representation of the Shia Ithna Ashari faith.

[2] The phrase written on the cover page of this exegesis indicates that this exegesis is written according to the beliefs of the Shias and the religion of Ahl al-Bayt.

[3] Twelve contemporary Shia Mujtahid scholars have more or less confirmed in these words that the source of this exegesis is the traditions transmitted from the honorable Ahl al-Bayt.

[4] All the footnotes of this Tafsir have been compiled from the narrations attributed to the Imams in more than eighteen of the most religious, fundamental, and authentic books of the Shia Ithna Ashariyah, and all this material has been translated and written by the translator himself in the Urdu language, in which there is no possibility of alteration or misinterpretation by non-Shia, and this is a very important point.

[5] By reading this single Tafsir, a reader obtains the material from the eighteen most authentic books of the Shia religion, which the authors of the Shia religion have written regarding the distortion of the Quran based on the narrations attributed to the Imams, and by studying this one book, it appears as if one has studied the eighteen books of the Shia religion, upon which the structure of the Shia religion is built. It is also true that this Tafsir interprets all the beliefs of the Shias and almost all important issues with reference to the narrations of the Imams, and this also indicates its significance.

[6] Reading this tafsir reveals the fact that the authors of the Shia religion have rejected the entire collection of the Prophet Muhammad's ﷺ hadiths, and instead, by creating traditions in the names of the Imams, they have made literal alterations wherever needed in the Quran and have made semantic alterations throughout the rest of the Quran to build the structure of the Shia religion. Therefore, Islam is one thing and Shi'ism is another; there is not even the slightest connection between them.

The reality is that these eighteen books and other similar books, in which the topics of distortion in the Quran and narrations with exaggerations are present, are all studied by Shia scholars and Mujtahids, and they hold the belief in the distortion of the Quran. So how do they then deny the belief in the distortion of the Quran? It is clear that their denial of the belief in the distortion of the Quran in front of Muslims on radio or television or in front of ignorant and unaware Shias is outright concealment or Taqiyya (i.e., deceiving others to attract them towards Shiism and make them Shia), which has nothing to do with their true religion. Now, I will present the distortion in the Holy Quran according to the Shias in the form of verses without translation, so that the literal distortion can be easily seen and it becomes easier to understand.

Distortion of the Quran according to the Shia:


At the following places, the Shias have altered the verses of the Quran. In all these verses, first the original verses of the Holy Quran are given, followed by the altered verses according to the Shias in order:

In the previous pages, I have only focused on the explanation of a few distorted verses from the popular translation and commentary of Shia Ithna Ashariyah along with its footnotes. Besides the distortion in the words of the verses, the entire footnotes of this translation and commentary are filled with semantic distortions. Still, here I present only a few semantic distortions from the popular footnotes as examples, from which you will gain knowledge of the true characteristics of the Shia religion and you will easily know who were the authors and founders of this religion?

Summary of the explanation of the verse in the popular footnote. If a Shia has not done any righteous deeds, then in return, by sending one hundred thousand Sunni Muslims to Hell, he will be saved from Hell.

[17] [وَ مَنۡ یَّنۡقَلِبۡ عَلٰی عَقِبَیۡہِ]
Reference: Aal Imran:144


In the popular commentary, it is narrated from Imam Muhammad Baqir that after the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, except for three persons, all others became apostates. (Imam Jafar Sadiq) said that two women had poisoned the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ before his death. (Translator's note) This means those two women are the same, may Allah curse them and their fathers.
Reference: (Tafseer Maqbool: 133)


From this, it is understood that all earlier and later Shi'a scholars and mujtahids agree that after the passing of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, except for three or four companions, all others became (نعوذ باللہ) apostates and disbelievers. And these people curse and revile the Prophet's ﷺ Ahl al-Bayt, especially the pure wives, particularly Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) and Lady Hafsa (may Allah be pleased with her), as you have read in the handwritten words of Maulvi Maqbool Ahmad Shah himself.

The two women who poisoned the Messenger of Allah ﷺ are meant to be the Mothers of the Believers, Lady Aisha Siddiqah رضي الله عنها and Lady Hafsa رضي الله عنها. (نعوذ باللہ!) What can be said about a religion that is based entirely on lies and deception regarding the slander and false accusations against the pure wives of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, whose truth should be denied in every possible way? The event is recorded in all the books of Seerah and Hadith that after the conquest of Khaybar, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stayed in Khaybar for a few days. During those days, a Jewish woman named Zainab bint Harith, wife of Sallam bin Shakham, presented roasted goat meat as a gift to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He ﷺ took a bite of that meat and then immediately withdrew his hand. Sayyiduna Bishr bin Bara bin Marur رضي الله عنه was also eating with him and had eaten more than enough. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stopped him as well, but since he had eaten a lot, the poison took effect and he passed away.
Reference: (Seerat al-Mustafa: 2/2)
The effect of this poison remained with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ until the end of his life, as it is mentioned in the narration of Sahih Bukhari that he ﷺ kept saying in his final moments that this was the effect of the poison he had eaten.

Reference: Bukhari, Kitab al-Maghazi, Chapter on the Illness and Death of the Prophet ﷺ: 4428


And this admission is also made by some Shia, as at this time there is a chart before me regarding the Shia religion's Imamate and the Imams. This chart is published by the Shia Welfare Organization Nawabshah and is authenticated by the Shia Mujtahid Allama Ali Ahmad Najafi Baloch, the preacher of Jamia Masjid Murtazavi Nawabshah. This chart has 26 columns under various headings, detailing the lives of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, Lady Fatimah al-Zahra (may Allah be pleased with her), and the twelve Imams. Among these columns, column number 22 is titled [Name of the Killer]. In this column, the name of the killer of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ is given as a Jewish woman, which also confirms and supports the narration in Sahih Bukhari. This is also the wisdom of Allah, the Lord of Glory, that sometimes He makes the truth and reality known and recorded even by the true enemies of Islam and the leaders of the Muslims, thereby establishing the truth. Indeed, Allah is the Greatest, the Most Great.

This narration is attributed to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ; consider what should be understood about the Messenger of Allah ﷺ himself from this narration.

Here, the Shias have distorted the meaning of the Quran to justify cursing and insulting the companions of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, may Allah be pleased with them, as well as his purified household and wives. What do you think? Can you show even one example where a Jew or Christian has committed such injustice and oppression from the Quran?

Now keep in mind that the explanatory notes of this popular translation of the Shia Ithna Ashari are compiled from more than eighteen (18) of the most authentic fundamental books of the Shias, which means that the authors and scholars of these more than eighteen books all hold the heretical belief in the distortion and alteration of the Holy Quran and are one hundred percent involved in this heretical act. Now, if we look at it in terms of time, the most authentic book of the Shia religion, Usul al-Kafi, was authored by Abu Ja'far ibn Ya'qub ibn Ishaq al-Kulayni, who passed away in 328-329 AH. This book contains the most narrations about the distortion and alteration of the Quran, on the basis of which the belief in Imamate was doctrinally fabricated, and these two beliefs, i.e., the distortion of the Quran and the belief in Imamate, were doctrinally created at the same time. (328 AH, 1410 AH) This amounts to one thousand eighty-two (1082) years. During this period, thousands of Shia hadith scholars and jurists emerged, some of whom have written works and some have not, but all of them agreed on the belief in the distortion of the Holy Quran because denial of the belief in the distortion of the Quran results in denial of the belief in Imamate, and denial of Imamate means denial of the Shia religion. Now you yourself estimate how important the belief in the distortion of the Quran is in the Shia religion. Even now, if any Shia jurist denies the distortion of the Quran, it is a sign of concealment and taqiyya, which has no connection with truth and is outright deception and fraud.

We have already written quite a bit about the Shia community earlier in this book, but it is also appropriate to mention a few more points:

[1] The event of Karbala completed 1365 Hijri and 1344 Solar years, and in Shariah, mourning for more than 3 days is not allowed. So, continuing to mourn every year until now is a great foolishness and misunderstanding.

[2] Now it is Muharram-ul-Haram 1426 Hijri, and in our city Sheikhupura, the Shia community is performing mourning rituals and have also put up advertisements in every street and neighborhood. We came across a very large advertisement which had written at the top right corner: "Ya Ali Madad" and at the top left corner: "Ya Rasul Allah Madad". It was surprising and saddening that these people have completely ignored the Creator of the universe. Allah Almighty is not even mentioned in this advertisement, and secondly, these people have given preference to Sayyidina Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) over the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. What will be the fate of these people on the Day of Judgment?
