00:00:00,180 --> 00:00:08,830
A summary of the concepts of Ahl al-Sunnah.

2
00:00:08,830 --> 00:00:11,980
The Qarmatians.

3
00:00:11,980 --> 00:00:14,980
They are one of the Batiniyya (esoteric) Shia sects.

4
00:00:14,980 --> 00:00:16,980
They branched off from the Isma'ilis.

5
00:00:16,980 --> 00:00:20,980
And they established their state in eastern Arabia.

6
00:00:20,980 --> 00:00:26,050
They blocked the path of the pilgrims during Hajj and killed them.

7
00:00:26,050 --> 00:00:29,050
And they stole the Black Stone from the Ka'bah.

8
00:00:29,050 --> 00:00:31,050
And they transported it to the land of Hajar.

9
00:00:31,050 --> 00:00:33,049
Al-Ahsa' currently.

10
00:00:33,049 --> 00:00:36,049
And it remained there for 22 years.

11
00:00:36,049 --> 00:00:41,049
During which Hajj was suspended out of fear of them and their blocking of the pilgrims' path.

12
00:00:41,049 --> 00:00:44,049
Then they returned it to the Ka'bah.

13
00:00:44,049 --> 00:00:46,049
And they resumed the Hajj season.

14
00:00:46,049 --> 00:00:51,049
It is said they did this after a peace treaty and agreement with the Abbasid Caliphate.

15
00:00:51,049 --> 00:00:56,049
In exchange for them relinquishing the lands under their control.

16
00:00:56,049 --> 00:01:02,049
And it is said they did this when threatened by the Fatimid Ubaydi Imam.

17
00:01:02,049 --> 00:01:07,560
The Qarmatians ruled over most of the Arabian Peninsula and the Levant.

18
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:11,560
This was during the weakness of the Abbasid Caliphate.

19
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:15,560
They trace their lineage to Ibn Qarmat, the Batiniyya Shia.

20
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:20,560
Named Hamdan Qarmat Ibn al-Ash'ath al-Baqqar.

21
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:23,560
May Allah give him what he deserves.

22
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:26,780
Among their most extreme principles of disbelief is:

23
00:01:26,780 --> 00:01:28,780
Deifying others besides Allah, the Exalted.

24
00:01:29,780 --> 00:01:32,780
And attributing infallibility to their Imams.

25
00:01:32,780 --> 00:01:36,780
And they are characterized by their reviling of the Companions, may Allah be pleased with them.

26
00:01:36,780 --> 00:01:40,780
And they hold blasphemous beliefs about Allah, the Mighty and Majestic.

27
00:01:40,780 --> 00:01:43,780
Regarding His names, attributes, and actions.

28
00:01:43,780 --> 00:01:47,780
Allah is far above that, a great transcendence.
