Taufa Ithna Ashari
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Taufa Ithna Ashari (Gift to the Twelvers) is a highly controversial book [1] by Sunni Islamic scholar Shah Abdul Aziz [2].
A Sunni site, nazariapak, states [1]:
- In this book, he has described the history, belief and teachings of the Shia’s. There was hardly any Suni house, he says, in which some of its members had not become Shia’s. They did not know anything about their new faith, or even concerning Sunnism. Therefore, the author, as he says, compiled the book, to provide information to people who were really interested in such debates.
Furthermore, Shah Abdul Aziz Dehlavi referred to the Imam of the Ahl al-Sunnah Abu Hanifa as a Shi'a, in Taufa Ithna Ashari, page 25:
'Imam Abu Hanifa [r] was counted amongst the Shi'a of Kufa and he considered Zaid bin 'Ali bin Husayn to be on the path of truth'
