Misconceptions about Shia!!       One of the ironies of our Islamic history is the Shia-Sunni divide. We must make every effort to eliminate misconceptions on both sides of the divide.      Following are some common misconceptions that Sunnis have about Shias.

Doctors couldn’t operate so they started chemotherapy.

She is really a trooper through all of it,” mom, Courtney Durante, 33, of Irwin, Pennsylvania, told TODAY Parents. “She loves wearing big gowns, the bigger the better.
