Imam Ali (AS) "O people! Verily this day of yours when the righteous are awarded and the wretched are losers.
It is the day which is similar to the one on which you shall be standing (before your lord) therefore when you come out of your homes to go to places of your prayer,
Remind yourself about the day when you (your souls) shall come out of your bodies to go to your Lord.
When you stand on the places of your prayer remind yourself at your standing in the presence of your Lord (on the day of judgement).
And when you return to your homes (after prayers), remind yourself about your returning in paradise.
O servant of Allah! Verily the minimum reward for those men and women who fasted (during ramadan), is an angel who calls out to them on the last day of the month of Ramadan saying;
O servants of Allah!
"Rejoice the glad tidings that all your previous sins have been forgiven".

Reading Useless Sunni Books
The divide between Sunni and Shia perspectives runs deep, shaping beliefs, practices, and interpretations of religious texts. For Shia Muslims, the question often arises: should one engage with Sunni literature for understanding Islam? The answer, for many, lies in a nuanced exploration of the implications and limitations of such endeavors.
Shia Muslims, grounded in their belief in the infallibility and authority of the Ahlulbayt, often view Sunni literature with skepticism. While some may argue for the utility of Sunni books in debates or comparative religious studies, the inherent risks and pitfalls of relying on these sources for doctrinal guidance cannot be overstated.
One fundamental concern is the potential distortion of the Prophet Muhammad's character and teachings as depicted in Sunni texts. From accounts of his marriages to his interactions with companions, the narratives presented in Sunni literature often diverge significantly from Shia beliefs. The portrayal of the Prophet engaging in actions or making statements that contradict Shia doctrines can be deeply unsettling for adherents of the Shia faith.
For instance, Sunni texts depict the Prophet Muhammad marrying children as young as 6 years old, or engaging in behaviors that Shia Muslims find incompatible with their understanding of prophethood. These disparities can lead to confusion, cognitive dissonance, and false impressions of Mohammad SAWS.
Furthermore, the reliance on Sunni literature as authoritative sources of Islam can inadvertently validate narratives that undermine Shia theology. Accounts of companions correcting or admonishing the Prophet Muhammad, as found in Sunni texts. The conclusion from many Sunni text is that Mohammad was just an average Joe guy who often gets corrected by his companions on numerous occasions.
It is essential to recognize that the divergence between Sunni and Shia perspectives is not merely academic; it is deeply rooted in theological differences that shape religious identity and practice. For Shia Muslims, the Quran and the teachings of Ahlulbayt serve as the primary sources of guidance and authority. The emphasis on the Imams, as the inheritors of prophetic knowledge and authority, distinguishes Shia Islam from its Sunni counterpart.
While engaging with Sunni literature for comparative purposes or scholarly discourse may have its merits, Shia Muslims must approach such endeavors with caution and critical scrutiny. Blind acceptance of narratives that conflict with Shia beliefs in the infallibility of Mohammad and his holy Family SAWS.
In conclusion, while there may be occasional utility in engaging with Sunni literature for certain purposes, such as debates or comparative studies, Shia Muslims must exercise caution and discernment. Relying on Sunni sources for doctrinal guidance or spiritual nourishment poses significant risks to the integrity of Shia beliefs and can lead to confusion and discord within the community. Ultimately, the Quran and the teachings of Ahlulbayt remain the cornerstone of Shia faith and identity, providing a steadfast anchor in the seas of religious discourse. The Prophet said "I leave behind the Quran and Ahlulbayt."
Side Note: Sunni books are absolutely useless, beyond the nature of their uselessness for debates; to read any Sunni book as a genuine source of spiritual guidance would lead anyone to the conclusion that "a Prophet," was a child molester, terrorist, and warmonger, who also walked in on his adopted son's wife and fell in love with her body.

قَالَ عَلَیْهِ السَّلَامُ
كُنْ فِی الْفِتْنَةِ كَابْنِ اللَّبُوْنِ، لَا ظَهْرٌ فَیُرْكَبَ، وَ لَا ضَرْعٌ فَیُحْلَبَ.
فتنہ و فساد میں اس طرح رہو جس طرح اونٹ کا وہ بچہ جس نے ابھی اپنی عمر کے دو سال ختم کئے ہوں کہ نہ تو اس کی پیٹھ پر سواری کی جا سکتی ہے اور نہ اس کے تھنوں سے دودھ دوہا جا سکتا ہے۔

“Now, you cannot go farther than the limit of your life, nor can you be given livelihood which is not for you. Remember that this life consists of two days - a day for you and a day against you, and that the world is a house (changing) authorities. Whatever in it is for you will come to you despite your weakness; and whatever in it turns against you cannot be brought back despite your strength” - Imam Ali (ع)

Most Important Shia Books To Read
To gain a deeper understanding of the Ahlulbayt's perspective, consider reading these literary works:
1. Al-Ihtijaj by al-Tabrisi is a collection of hadiths presented by Shia scholar Ahmad b. Ali al-Tabrisi. The book focuses on narrations related to the Ahlulbayt.
2. Al-Murajaat is a book that presents a debate between Shia and Sunni scholarly viewpoints. It aims to clarify Shia beliefs and their foundation in Islamic scholarship.
3. Peshawar Nights is a record of debates between Shia and Sunni scholars that took place in Peshawar, Pakistan in the 1920s. It covers various topics related to Islamic theology and jurisprudence.
4. Nahj al-Balagha is a collection of sermons, letters, and sayings attributed to Imam Ali, a revered figure in Islam. It's known for its eloquence and is widely studied within Islamic scholarship.
5. Haqa'iq al-Shia is a Shia Islamic text presenting the beliefs of Twelver Shia Islam. The author, Sayyid Sadiq Shirazi, is a revered scholar in Shia Islam.
6. The Truth About the Shi'a Ithna Ashariya by Asad Wahid Al Qasim, a Sunni convert to the pure Islamic, Shia faith.
7. Succession To The Prophet Mohammad by Wilfred Madlung: A Non-Muslim Scholar's Perspective on Early Islamic History and the Resulting Civil Wars; and he reaches a conclusion in favor of the Ahlulbayt.
8. Succession to the Prophet Muhammad is another book that explores this topic, but from the perspective of Anila Sultan, a Sunni woman who converted to Shi'ism. This contrasts with Wilfred Madelung's scholarly examination of the succession.
9. For a look at the Shia creed through the eyes of a Sunni convert, consider Muhammad Tijani's works. Tijani, a former Sunni scholar who converted to Shi'ism, authored several books detailing his conversion journey and insights into Shia beliefs.
10. After gaining a solid foundation in Shia doctrine, readers can explore more advanced works like "Al-Kafi" by Al-Kulayni or "The Shia Creed" by Sheikh al-Saduq, a respected 12th Imam scholar. Sheikh al-Saduq's writings offer a comprehensive understanding of Shia beliefs and practices.
11. Ayesha by Kurt Frischler - This book offers a critical analysis of Aisha, one of the wives of Prophet Muhammad. It portrays her through a non-Islamic lens, highlighting controversial aspects of her character.
12. I saved the absolute best one for last: Tuhaf al-Uqul by Ibn Shu'ba al-Harrani is a revered collection of teachings attributed to the Prophet Muhammad and the Shia Imams. It's considered a profound resource for those familiar with Shia Islamic beliefs.
