You're a Sunni, not a Shi'ite, then?

MeisterEckhart,

gandalf is, a follower of ISLAM.

gandalf worships Allah, and praises the blessed prophet Mohammed,
and gandalf believes that the Koran is a holy and inerrant text.

gandalf,

Feel free to correct me, if you feel that i have misrepresented any religious precepts which you choose to embrace [or not].

Not a Sunni, not a Shi'ite, not a Sufi, no Imam... How do you confirm the orthodoxy of your Islamic perspective?

Didn't you once argue that Imams were the best defence against Islamic extremism?

Thousands gather in Iran to protest 'Bloody Friday' security force crackdown as nationwide unrest continues

Thousands of Iranians have protested in the nation's south-east to mark a September crackdown by security forces known as "Bloody Friday".

It came as Iran's clerical rulers battled persistent nationwide unrest.

Amnesty International said security forces unlawfully killed at least 66 people on September 30 after firing at protesters in Zahedan, capital of flashpoint Sistan-Baluchistan province.

Another video which 1500Tasvir said was from the town of Khash in the south-east showed protesters trampling and breaking a street sign carrying the name of top general Qassem Soleimani, who was assassinated in a US drone attack in 2020 in Iraq.

The unrest in the lead-up to the September 30 incident was fuelled by allegations of the rape of a local teenage girl by a police officer. Authorities have said the case is being investigated.

Anti-government demonstrations also started erupting that month after the death of a Kurdish woman, Mahsa Amini, who had been detained by morality police for allegedly flouting the Islamic Republic's strict dress code imposed on women.

Nationwide demonstrations have since turned into a popular revolt, with people ranging from students to doctors, lawyers, workers and athletes taking part, with fury directed mostly at Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

Leftists and the Ayatollahs have a lot in common when it comes to criticism of Islam, they don't tolerate it.
