[Thread] List of Twelver #Shia scholars in history who disguised themselves as #Sunni scholars in order to deceive and mislead & even convert the laymen.
These are just a few examples mentioned by Shia scholars themselves in their books. I will update the list if I find more.
Example 1
[When he would present himself as being from 1 of the 2 Madhabs, he did so out of Taqiyah & to win them over. This kind of thing happens A LOT with our [Shia] scholars & it’s too long to count the examples of those who claimed to be Shafi among others.] al-Kashkul 3/19
Example 2
[And he (i.e Shia scholar) used to identify himself as #Hanafi and gave verdicts according to the Madhab of abi Hanifah Nu`man bin Thabit al-Kufi out of Taqiyyah.]
Mu`jam Rijal – al-Khu’i 5/54
Example 3
[What’s apparent is that they weakened him due to his verdicts concerning the mainstream Muslims (Sunnis), this could be out of Taqiyyah as it facilitates the spreading of Ahlul-Bayt’s narrations as a group of our companions did.]
Khatimat al-Mustadrak – Tabrasi 5/33
Example 4
[He apparently was a jurist of the #Shafi`i school but he believed in the opinion of the Shia internally.]
Al-Fehrest – Tusi 208
Example 5
[He (i.e Shia scholar) used to appear as an opponent of the Imami [Shia] creed in order to be friendly and win-over his followers.]
A`yan al-Shi`ah – Amin 5/182
Example 6
[When in Sham (Syria) I showed that I was a Shafi`i.]
Rawdat al-Jannat – Khawansari 7/71.
Example 7
[Some of our scholars labelled him Zaydi, others said he’s Twelver as his books show. Seeing as though he called the various sects to support him, he would display outwardly things to make them friendlier so they wouldn’t abandon him.] Tanqih al-Maqal – Mamaqani 20/100
Example 8
[Muhammad Taqi Majlisi, father of Baqir Majlisi, would present himself as a Sufi in order to reach out to them and make them leave their false beliefs] Taraif al-Maqal 2/391
