Hezbollah- Questions and Answers
 

I thought opening this thread so i can get answers from Hezbollah's supporters or members about the ideology of Hezbollah and other related things.

There is a lack of knowledge in some people's minds concerning Hezbollah and its ideology/goals/identity etc...

I would like to get some answers about some questions that it will also may help those who criticize Hezbollah blindly without knowing anything about it.


NB: I am asking general questions, i may have answers about some, but not all of it. I just aked this popular questions so we can know if our friends in the forum who keep criticizing Hezbollah are right in doing so or not, so everyone in here can get clear answers and ask whatever he wants to.

please keep this thread a serious one with the high level of discussions.

And if anyone has more questions to post please do it, i would like to get answers from members who are directly related to Hezbollah or who got clear answers about these questions:


1- Is Hezbollah a pure Lebanese party ?? and why it is said " Al moukawama al islamiya fi loubnan " ?? is it a branch of another party outside Lebanon ??

2- Do non-shiites have the right in joining Hezbollah (i don't mean supporting but joining the party and being committed to it) without changing their religion or sect ??

3- Is Hezbollah's loyal to Lebanon or the shiite sect ?? in other terms, if someday the head of the shiite sect in Lebanon (like the patriarch to the christians) called for a local independence in the regions were the majority of shiaa lives (South Lebanon, Bekaa, Southern suburb of Beirut etc..) Is Hezbollah obliged to obey his wish ?? or they can stand in front of what men of their religion decides ??

4- Is Hezbollah a pure sectarian religious party aiming to form an Islamic state in Lebanon ?? and what's their position concerning the Lebanese system ??

Re: Hezbollah- Questions and Answers
 

Hezbollah is a lebanese movement which was created because of complex processes (ideological, social, political and economical) in context with the Lebanese, Arab and Islamic world ...

It's called like that because it's an islamic resistance that happens to be in Lebanon :P ... it's not a branch nor have branches outside Lebanon (similar named parties in Iraq or Palestine are not connected to HA)

at least i know 1 christian and 1 sunnite who are active HA members (I know more) ... and i think most of you know "Ghaleb Abou Zeinab" a member of the political council in HA who is a sunnite ...
concerning changing the religion or not, this is something subjective to the person

Concerning the first part ... The practice showed that HA is loyal to all Lebanon (mish bi 7aje la shhedte aw shhedit 7ada tene)
Concerning the second part ... I think Sobhi Tofayle forms a nearly similar example of what you are saying and we know the rest of the story ...

HA is not aiming at the application of Islam by force or violence but through peaceful political performance, which gives the opportunity for the majority in any society to either accept it or reject it ...
in Lebanon it's quite impossible to have a pure islamic state, so HA continues to coexist with others and build the path of dialogue and acquaintance with them, in order to achieve sound beliefs.

p.s : this reflects my opinion only

Thank You ...

We muslims consider the whole muslim world as one people. It is something about the term we call "The Islamic Nation". HA are part of that islamic nation, while being geographically part of Lebanon. They have every right to and saying anything otherwise would be too idealistic of an expectation from any human.

Can I, a shiite, join the Future Movement. I am sure I can, but would I blend in? Would I feel that I belong to where I am? We must understand that the sacrifices HA presents are done under a religious pretext. Shiites draw lessons of resistance from the great legacy of Imam Hussien(3alayhe l'salam) and all other Imams whose teachings kept us surviving and with resounding voice and obvious presence although we are only 8% of Muslims.

HA has formed other groups that don't rely heavily on religious pretext and always welcomes ppl from all sects and religions into these groups. I think, compared to all other Lebanese parties, they are doing very well on that..

No one can question that patriotism of HA before showing as much sacrifices as they did. I have never heard of a parallel story to that of HA. Now for the rest of your anology, I don't know. I think for the "Patriarich of Shiites" to say that we need to be independent of the rest of Lebanon, Lebanon would have to be some place that we can't imagine. I personally trust the wisdom of those who guide the Shiite people, including all maraje3, from Iran to Lebanon passing through Iraq. The wise decisions they have taken for hundreds of years speak of themselves. I think every non-shiite Lebanese should study shiite history, and then he/she would know that such fears have no basis...


The Lebanese system as HA sees it, as berri sees it, as ja3ja3 sees it and as GMA and every Lebanese sees it is corrupt. No one can say otherwise. Changes have to be made. HA and every muslim living in Lebanon, a real muslim is what I mean by that, would agree that no other system reaches as close a perfection or fairness as that of the Islamic State. HA wants an Islamic state, and we all do but as Abousoun said, by a democratic consensus.

One last thing, it doesn't have to be a total Islamic State one shot. For example, HA ministers would suggest a taxing system like that of an Islamic State. They would do that mainly because they believe in the perfection of an Islamic State. Ministers and Parliament Members from Tayyar for example would study that taxing system and find it indeed good for Lebanon. Why would they care after that if that system is taken from the Koraan or made up by some economist? If it brings prosperity and fairness to our lives, who cares what the source is? The same goes for every other aspect and law in an Islamic State...

Peace....

1-If you want to know is HA pure lenanese party read about its achieved goals from 1982 till know if you find any goal that serve any country political goal then it is not.
-It is named by that since it is based on islam attiudes and behaviors.
-it is not a branch of any other resistance movements,and i think it is the first resistance movement in the world named by "Moqawama Islamiya" before any other one .
2-offcouse they can because hizbollah believe that defending lebanon from any israeli war is not concerned by him or shiite s but by every lebanese person ,and for this aim "Al Saraya al Lobnaneye " is formed by hizbollah ,and share hizbollah in many operations,and you can ask about it to be sure of it.
3-Then why HA make this big deal paper with "THE GENERAL",and by the way the head of HA shiite sec not in lebanon he is in Iran,and i cant explain why in here.
4-This question is answerd many times by sama7at el sayed ,who said that making Islamic State in lebanon is impossible and again why he signed that paper with general aoun(christiens).
thank ypu for these questions hoping to defend lenanese land together.bye

Re: Hezbollah- Questions and Answers
 

Dear General,
I believe you know enough already since you have answered these questions so far.
But i must remind you that our concept of "a3lamiyya" is a very broad subject.
Sayyed Ali Khamenei is not really regarded as the "head" of the shiite sect, since not all shia believe in Wilayat Al Fakih.
I myself follow Sayyed Khamenei...but i speak on behalf of the others who follow Sayyed Mohammad Hussein Fadlallah, Sayyed Ali Al Sistani, Sheikh Mohammad Taki Bahjat....etc...
Their leader is not necessarily Sayed Ali Khamenei though they do hold him in very high regards...

Thank You...

Re: Hezbollah- Questions and Answers
 

Well now this is just getting wrong.

It's Kain):

I'm sorry but now you're just plain wrong...
The head of Hezbollah is its Secretary General...Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah...

Sayyed Ali Khamenei is seen as a great religious figure, a role model, and a leader...yes..but not head of Hezbollah.
Sayyed Khamenei is in Iran and is the head of an Islamic country.
Hezbollah resides in a country of many religions and cannot follow everything said by Sayyed Khamenei due to the difference in the 2 countries and the different political situations they're in.

That is why Hezbollah makes its own political decisions regardless of religious views or how they see Sayyed Khamenei.

Re: Hezbollah- Questions and Answers
 

Offcourse HA did sayyed khamenei is hizbollah shiite sect in relgional things only .thx kain.
