    When you lectures others not to worship stones and later you go around a black stone 3 times.

    She is simply amazing, i always had confusion between shias and sunnis, she has clarified everything!
  • @Sanskar-1705
    In India Shias prosper and their community is well known for their businesses As a Hindu, we always buy our electronics from Shia Bussiness men we prefer them over other Hindu business men in our city... I and My friend (Shia) shared apartment for 2 years and never felt that we had two different religions... He played Holi with us and also attended Ganesh Puja in our home He wanted to join Indian Police Service to help other Shia Muslims in India.... He is a true patriot and loves India

    This is what Al Jazeera did to 🇮🇳 for years... Now it's India's turn
  • @muralibaba123
    Mohammad very promptly said no one should marry Asiha after his death but not mentioned who should be his next successor... Priority matter... 😀
  • @AnalyseThat
    Well done, Palki! A balanced and fairly accurate presentation of Shia Sunni divide which is essentially a power struggle as so many others around the world. A sad reality of the human condition!

    As being a Muslim I greatly pay a tribute of respect to this women for speaking about Islam's history and leaders with respect.

    When Palki puts on her traditional clothing it's time for a lesson.
  • @leokoshy1947
    Palki is that kind of professor where the whole class attends her lecture and nobody bothers her

    I am not Shia or Sunni, I am a Muslim. I have a friend who is shia but when we pray we don’t look at our differences we look at our similarity which is that we both worship one God. Peace to all of my brothers and sisters from America. 😁✌️

    If we dive deeply into it, we will clearly see that Ali (A.S) was a real companion of Muhammad SAW. Ali was one of the commander in all the wars Muhammad SAW had fought. During his (Muhammad SAW), in a speech clearly tells the people of Makkah that whoever believes and accepts me as a leader, Ali AS is their leader too. A lot of other places and events had taken places where a person can clearly says that Ali AS was the only and true companion after Muhammad SAW. Even the people of Makkah realized it after 30 years and they all came to Ali AS place and accepted his leadership. Thank you!
