By Micah Halpern
Saturday May 12, 2007 I've Been Thinking: The Muslims of Michigan have recently signed an agreement to set aside the centuries old dispute between Shiites and Sunnis. After some recent violence the leaders have decided to put aside differences and unite by creating a treaty. Why is it impossible to unite Shiites and Sunnis? This Michigan Agreement is based on a perception of Muslim unity. It is predicated on the belief that the sides can unite against a common enemy and set aside theological differences. But in reality they cannot. The hostility between Shiites and Sunnis goes too deep and has been there for so very long. A takfir is a takfir and with a takfir comes persecutions and even deaths. 4 June 2017 12:14 PM in Thoughts
