Salam Alaykum brothers and Sisters of Islam.
I met a Muslim boy about five years ago and i thought al humduallah Allah (swa) has sent me a good man who i can marry and start a family with. He was Muslim, believed in Allah (swa) and the Prophet (saw).
Unfortunately things between me and this man could not happen even though he was Muslim, due to the fact that he was Muslim Shia. Before this event in my life, i never knew about the different secs of Islam.
It upsets me to know that people from different secs do not like to mix. Interact with each other. Being Muslim Brothers and Sisters. I know for a fact that a Muslim Sunnah brother of Islam does not wish for a Muslim Shia brother of Islam what he wishes for himself. ...
What is the world comming too? I know we have our differences, but the differences is not in what we believe, it is in how we practice things. Surely Allah (swa) is Most Merciful and will have Mery on all those who believe.
The Prophet (saw) did not want us to seperate like this. Allah (swa) does not want us to be like this. We're all Muslims at the end of the day and i refuse to call myself anything other than a Muslim. Al Humduallah.
Brothers and Sisters of Islam, if my thinking is at all wrong or Sinful, May Allah be pleased with you all, you are obliged to inform me so.

Answer :
Praise be to Allaah.
We Sunnis wish all people well, and we ask Allaah to guide all those who are misled and to reward all those who obey Him. We hope that Allaah will guide those Raafidis…
The differences between the Ahl al-Sunnah (Sunnis) and the Raafidis are very great and are fundamental. For example, the Raafidis say that the Qur’aan was altered, and they condemn most of the Sahaabah (may Allaah be pleased with them) and think that they went astray; they exaggerate about their imaams and worship them, and give them precedence over the Prophets and angels; they go on pilgrimages to mashhads (shrines) and graves, where they do all kinds of actions of shirk, associating others in worship with Allaah. They also believe in hypocrisy (as a tenet of faith) and call it taqiyah (dissimulation), and they believe in al-badaa’(the notion that Allaah “changes His mind”), al-raj’ah (the Return, i.e., the raising of the dead to life again for some time in the same form as they were before) and absolute infallibility of their imaams, and in prostrating on a handful of clay…
We advise you to read "Al-Khutoot al-‘Areedah" by Muhibb al-Deen al-Khateeb [this book is available in English – Translator], or Mukhtasar al-Tuhfat al-Ithna’ ‘Ashariyyah by al-Dahlawi, or Fikrat al-Taqreeb bayna Ahl al-Sunnah wa’l-Shee’ah by Naasir al-Qaffaari.
And we advise you not to think of marrying this man… Whoever gives up something for the sake of Allaah, Allaah will compensate him with something better. We ask Allaah to make you strong and grant you a good life in this world and in the Hereafter.
We would also remind you that it is not permitted to have relationships with non-mahram men, as you will find explained clearly in Questions 2005 , 9465 And 1114 We ask Allaah to help you to do all that is good.
