99% percent of all Talishians are Shiah Muslims.
Talishians are very keen, sensitive to their religy. Approximately
80% percent of Talishians are observing principles, rules of
Shiah Islam. Talishians brought true Islam, Shiah Islam into
Azerbaijan (result of this that 75% of Azerbaijani population
is Shiah Muslims). Shiah Islam is non radical, humanous flow
of Islam. Unlike Sunnizm, Shizm(Shiah Islam) does not consider
Christians or Representers of other believes as crucial enemies
or so. As well known there are no Shiah terroristic organizations
or groups trying to change the entire world into Islamic world.
Almost, at least big parts of the Irani Languaged nationalities
(Aryans) are Shiahs. Also people of Azeri nation (nation that
is of Irani origin but unfortunately assimilated among wild
and uncultured Turkish/Oguz tribes) are Shiahs.
Initial
dogma of Shizm as well as Sunnizm is acknowledgement of one
God-Allah/Khuda “born by no one”, Mohammed as his prophet.
Besides that Shiahs highly appreciate, respect 12 imams (Mohammed’s
son in law-Ali and his direct 11 descendants). Shiahs believe
that, prophet’s assistant, person who after the death of prophet
led the Muslim community, could not be chosen, appointed by
people (as Sunnis believe), he could be chosen only by God
by the Mohammed’s mediation. According to the Shiah version
Mohammed called Ali as his successor. Shiahs also highly respect
Mohammed’s daughter, Ali’s wife Fatima.
Conception
of Imam occupies very important place in Shizm. According
to the Shiah believe; Person who by the order of Allah and
determination of Mohammed, became successor of Islam’s prophet
and directed directions in the Muslim community determined
by supreme power, can be called as Imam. Followers of Shizm
consider Ali as the first Imam and 11 of his descendants are
also Imams. According to the Sunni scholars 11th Imam, Abu
Mohammed al Hasan did not have any children. But according
to the Shiah historiography 11th Imam’s son existed secretly
and existed over 70 years and kept contacts with the Shiah
leaders, than he mysteriously disappeared and keeps on existence
till now days. He will appear by the end of days/history for
leading all Shiahs to the Saint victory of Shizm and creation
of fairer society.
Dogma
of messiah, Makhdi, is a central, important theory in Shizm.
Like in Christianity in Shiah Islam there is a believe that
prophet will come back and Shiahs believe this will be their
12th Imam.
According
to the history, except the last Imam all Shiah Imams are martyrs
for they died in the struggle for the true religy.
Talishians
as true Shiahs are ready to die for their believe in the name
of God (Khuda-in Irani languages, Khido-in Talish language),
his prophet and 12 imams.
It
should be mentioned that, many scholars insist on that, Shiah
believe emerged in XV century, when Persians first understood
that they are Aryans/Indho-Europeans, all over the history
they have had great culture, states, poets etc and being like
Turks, Arabs and other Muslims not of Indho-European origin
are shameful for the nations of supreme, Indho-European origin.
We can not say true it is or not we just can mention that
Irani Languaged nations/Aryans never were Nazis.
Shiahs
do deeply respect Europeans and their believes. It is also
known fact that Irani Languaged nationalities saved Europe
from Turkish (Sunni Muslims) wild violence, expansion and
occupation. Unfortunately now days branches of one tree do
not support each other even fight with each other.
