Saudi radical clerics attack Shiites to create rift among Muslims
By: Abdulali
RIYADH, Saudi Arabia: Saudi Arabia’s extremist clerics said in a
statement on Sunday Lebanon's Hezbollah was posturing against Israel
to hide an anti-Sunni agenda.
The Saudi government and religious establishment has watched with
alarm as the Lebanese group's popularity rose in the Arab world since
forcing Israel to withdraw in south Lebanon in 2000 and surviving an
Israeli military onslaught in 2006.
The statement distributed on Islamic websites said: "Many Muslims have
been fooled by the Shi'ites' claims to be championing Islam and
challenging the Jews and Americans and Hezbollah's claims in Lebanon".
"Those who believe their claims have not realised the reality of the
infidel bases of their faith ... It was the rejectionist Shi'ites who
began the practice of visiting graves and building shrines," it said.
22 clerics including the leading independent religious scholars Abdul-Rahman
al-Barrak and Abdullah bin Jabreen signed the statement.

"Knowledge is
better than wealth because it protects you while you have to
guard wealth. it decreases if you keep on spending it but the
more you make use of knowledge ,the more it increases . what you
get through wealth disappears as soon as wealth disappears but
what you achieve through knowledge will remain even after you."MORE
