DoubleTweet: The Ayatollah & the Mufti
[ by Charles Cameron — nicely done DoubleTweet from Hasan Hafidh ]
.
Noting, as you no doubt know, that Sistani of Najaf, Iraq, is the “quietist” ayatollah followed by more Shiites than any other, the Ayatollah Khamenei of Iran included:
'Do not say Sunni are our brothers, say they are us' – Ayatollah Sistani

And remembering that Rafidha is a derogatory term used by some unfriendly Sunnis for Shia…
'Rafidha are not our brothers, they are the brothers of Satan' – Salah AlFawzan (deputy grand Saudi mufti, govt-appointed) Who's sectarian?
