Saudi Arabians are setting up a penchant for Shia hatred. Many Iranians hate sunnis. This schism in Islam has cost our people greatly. When the Ottoman empire was readying and in the position of conquering Italy, the home of the papal states Safavids attacked them and blew the chance-just because of Shia sunni infighting.
If we are to be a strong force in the region not small squabbling entities we have to get rid of this curse. There is hatred for Shia and Sunni in Pakistan too with mostly us Sunnis being radical and refusing to identify the shia as brothers. I believe tlks should be held and ijtehad to be restored so that muslims of all types or those that identify themselves as such including Ahmedis or Zikris or sufis sit together and discuss the fall of Islam as it is seen in many nations.
Saudis have often claimed they are the center of the muslim world and their influence greater than the Roman empire. I do not hold this as true but if it is true the onus is on them to repair relations between shia and sunni-instead of being part of the conflict between shia and sunni. I would request Saudis and Iranians not to respond to trolls and create unity so another attack on a muslim country cannot occur-like it occured against iraq Afghanistan and Libya... that also while we bicker over shia and sunni.
I know well that both shia and sunni will go to heaven. Do not divide by destroying the beautiful bridges in our country. Btw this war of words between saudi and irani's biggest victims are the Pakistani population-divided between sunnis supporting saudia and shias Irani. I am an exception as I am sunni and respect Iran's foreign policy... don't divide-Unite.
