What are the theological and practical differences between the Nizari and Mustali Ismailis, and between them and Twelvers? Where could I view a good video or online article about this?
Thanks.
Can we discuss some of the issues related to the Shia sects? As I understand it, each of them has theological and scriptural bases for everything they believe which is very different that the standard mainstream of Sunni Islam, especially the role of the Imam as a stand-in for the prophet Muhammad throughout the generations. Since I am not a Muslim, it isn't for me to decide who has an authentic tradition, but it would seem that Islam was essentially fluid enough to accommodate interpretations beyond the standard one we are more familiar with in Sunni Islam.
