The pens of historians are filled with the blood of shia. The history of the shia religion itself is very painful. This is that religion which is so oppressed that it is hidden by both its enemies and its followers. Even today there is no example of the shia religion in any organized form throughout the entire world. People are told that if you offer prayer with your hands at your sides and put your head in sajdah on a piece of clay, then you are shia.
If you notice today shia religion has become a copy of sunni religion. The sign of every religion is its kalima (testimony), and the sign of the shia religion is the kalima "Aliunwaliullah". However today this sacred testimony has been excluded from the shia kalima . Read the tawzih of any mujtihid and you will find the same kalima which is recited by sunnis. Aliunwaliullah has become just a formal thing. They also do not declare Aliunwaliullah as wajib (compulsory) in adhan either.
They have even excluded "Wasi RasoolAllah (saw) wa Caliphatahu billa fasal" because sunnis dislike this. They have declared if you read Aliunwaliullah in your prayer, then your prayer will become batil (false). Now decide for yourself. When the kalima (testimony) itself has been changed, then where is the shia mazhab?
Marifat is the basic pillar of the shia religion because if any person dies without gaining marifat, then based upon the saying of RasoolAllah (saw), he has died the death of a kufr (disbelief) and nafaq (hypocrisy). But today the shia do not even know the meaning of the word marifat. Many people ask each other "What is marifat"? If someone explains it, then he is labeled nusairi. Even though nusairi is one who believes Ali (as) is Allah and Moula Ali (as) has no Lord.
However if someone believes that if we are given millions of lives even then we will not be able to describe all of the attributes of Moula Ali (as), they still believe Moula Ali (as) has a Lord, and also use to worship Allah, such people as this are the true and pure shia. This is the real shia religion. As Ameerul Momineen (as) Himself says, "Believe that We have a Lord, other than this say whatever you want regarding Our attributes.
Even then you will not be able to describe even one of Our attributes because you can never empty an ocean with a cup" ( Bihar ul Anwar) But now people have created boundaries for Moula Ali (as), and anyone who crosses their boundaries is declared as a nusairi.
