I'm not sure if there has already been a thread about this subject or not but I haven't seen one.
I think that most Sunnis treat the Shi'a belief in the infallibility of the imams as shirk because they attribute the absolute truth to these imams just like Allah is described as al-Haqq.
I was hoping to read a Shi'i's defense of the belief in the infallibility of the imams. I would also welcome any other comments by anyone else.
No saheeh hadeeth is a lie. I won't be surprised as I've seen similar attempts to discredit great muhadditheen earlier. All failed, and they'll continue to fail, as they're fighting against the truth.
In times of difficulties don't ever say, "Allah, I have a big problem!", say "Hey problem, I have a big Allah!"
Who is better in speech than one who calls (men) to Allah, works righteousness, and says "I am one of the Muslims." (33)
Surah 3:64
Say: "O people of the Book! come to common terms as between us and you: that we worship none but Allah; that we associate no partners with Him; that we erect not from among ourselves Lords and patrons other than Allah." If then they turn back, say: ye! "Bear witness that we are Muslims (bowing to Allah's will)." (64)
Surah 3:52
When Jesus found unbelief on their part, he said: "Who will be my helpers to (the work of) Allah?" Said the Disciples: "We are Allah's helpers we believe in Allah and do thou bear witness that we are Muslims. (52)
Surah 5:111
"And behold! I inspired the Disciples to have faith in Me and Mine Messenger: they said `We have faith and do thou bear witness that we bow to Allah as Muslims'." (111)
Surah 22:78
And strive in His cause as ye ought to strive, (with sincerity and under discipline): He has chosen you and has imposed no difficulties on you in religion; it is the cult of your father Abraham. It is He Who has named you Muslims, both before and in this (Revelation); that the Messenger may be a witness for you, and ye be witnesses for mankind! So establish regular Prayer give regular Charity, and hold fast to Allah! He is your Protector― the― Best to protect and the Best to help! (78)
But in front of a shi'a, you should say, yeah we are muslims, but sunni muslims.
LOL- CANT BELIEVE SOME MIS- CONCEPTIONS REGARDING SHIA'S
THE SHIAS DO BELIEVE IN ALLAH, MUHAMMAD saw, QURAN ETC.
THEY PRAY 3 TIMES BECAUSE THEY COMBINE ZOHAR JUS BEFORE ASAR TIME AND MAGHRIB WITH ESHA.
THEY DO GIVE ZAKAH
THEY DO HAJJ,
THEY DO FAST.
THEY DO NOT HAVE ANOTHER 'MECCA' IN IRAN OR SOMETHING.
WITH REGARDS TO INFALLIBILTY OF IMAMS - ITS NOT IMPROTANT.
RESEARCH & PERFECT UR OWN WAYS - THAT SHOULD EASILY OCCUPY 70/80 YEARS.
AND DNT BE SO QUICK TO CALL OTHERS KAFIR. IF THESE DIFFERENCES WERE SO EASY TO PUT STRAIGHT THEN THE DIFFERENCES WOULD NEVER HAVE MATERILIASED IN THE FIRST PLACE.

It's actually very important since it has to do with 'Aqeedah, and since this belief is a deviant and corrupt belief, it is very important to refute it lest it mislead people.
