The Shirazi movement, also known as the Shiraziyyin or the Karbala group (Jama'at Karbala), is a movement that identifies itself with the Usuli school of Twelver Shi'a Islam. It is predicated on the teachings of Mohammad al-Shirazi (d. 2001).
Tenets[edit]
The Shirazis are characterised as the following:
- Being critical of more traditional Twelver Shi'a religious institutions and its clerical establishment, especially in Najaf.[1]
- Embracing controversial practices like Tatbir (self-flagellation).[1][2][3]
- Voicing views that encourage conflict with Sunnis, such as attacking the Sahabah revered by them.[1]
- Rejecting Wilayat al-Faqih, that is the fundament of the Iranian Revolution. However they accept a similar concept known as Hukumat al-Fuqahah (Governance of the Clerics), where a council of clergy should govern an Islamic state rather than a single cleric.[2][4]
