As-Salamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu alhamdulillah, alhamdulillah, we praise

Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala the one and the unique.

We worship Him alone and He is His aid that we seek.

He is the Lord of the oppressed and He answers the dua of the weak.

Brothers and sisters, today inshaAllah wa ta'ala, we have one question that I have been asked

by many, many people but I am answering it today and I will actually choose a particular

questioner that came with this specific question, brother Sahajid from Australia, e-mails.

And Mashallah's barakal, he is in high school, he is a teenager and he is learning about

Islam and he says that he has come across the fact that there are two different messengers

in his locality.

One of them is a Sunni masjid, one is a Shi'i masjid, a Shi'ite masjid.

And he says that this is now caused him confusion because he felt that Islam was for unity that

all of the Muslims are one but he is aware of the fact that even in his own hometown somewhere

in Australia that there are different masjid and he is now asking that how do we understand

this and also he asks me to explain what is the difference between these two groups

and what should we do about it.

Now obviously this is a very, very difficult question and to my dear brother Sahajid I will

say that the answer is actually quite complicated but I will try to address this question in a

matter that is satisfactory to you insha'Allah ta'ala.
