The Religion
وَقَالُوا كُونُوا هُودًا أَوْ نَصَارَىٰ تَهْتَدُوا ۗ قُلْ بَلْ مِلَّةَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ حَنِيفًا ۖ وَمَا كَانَ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ {135}
And they are saying: ‘Become Jews or Christians, you will be rightly Guided’. Say: ‘But! (we follow) ‘مِلَّةَ’ the Religion of Ibrahim, the correct; and he was not from the Mushrikeen (Polytheists) [2:135]
عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ أَبِي مِيثَمٍ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ الْحُسَيْنَ بْنَ عَلِيٍّ ص يَقُولُ مَا أَحَدٌ عَلَى مِلَّةِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ إِلَّا نَحْنُ وَ شِيعَتُنَا، وَ سَائِرُ النَّاسِ مِنْهَا بِرَاء
From Umar Bin Abu Maysam who said, ‘I heard Al-Husayn-asws Bin Ali-asws saying: ‘There is no one upon the Religion of Ibrahim-as except us-asws and our-asws Shias, and the rest of the people are disassociated from it’’.[1]
