- Imam Ali Raza was poisoned in To'os, he is buried in Mashad.
- His journey from Medina to Tūs was forced upon him. 
- Mamun sent a senior official to take Imam to Toos. He told him not to go through Qum because it was full of Shias. 
- They did their own planning, but Allah does His own. 
- The Imams are able to give us the original and pure Islam of the Prophet.
- Praying differently comes from differences in understanding the Quran. There are few narrations where the Imams would describe Namaz in its entirety. All hadiths are spread out.
- One of them are from the 8th Imam, it tells us how to do Namaz in its entirety. 
- One of the common features of the Shia way of Namaz is Qunoot. (other Muslims perform it only in fajr or juma)
- The 11th Imam said that a sign of a Shia is that he says Bismillah loudly in all his prayers.
- We also emphasize Qasr Namaz. The 8th Imam would do this. 
- When travelling, according to this narration, Imam would sit down and recite 30 times Tasbeehate Arbah. When asked why Imam replied, "because I am doing Qasr salaaat. This becomes like a compensation." 
- If you dont stay for 10 days, you can do Qasr. It's a convenience that Allah has given to us. 
- The Suras for the namaz: In all wajib namaz in his journey to Khurasan, he had a pattern.
- First Rakaat: Sura Fateha, Sura Qadr
- Second Rakaat: Sura Fateha: Sura Ikhlaas 
- Fajr of Juma, Zuhr and Asr: Al Hamd, Juma for the first rakaat. Al hamd, Sura Munafiqoon for the second rakaat. 
- The shi'i perspective is that the second Sura has to be a complete Sura. 
- Sura Tawheed is a famous favourite Sura of Imam Ali. 
- If you recite five namaz in one day without Sura Tawheed, it is considered to be Makruh.
- When we have Fateha majlis for the deceased, culturally among Shias, we recite Sura Yaseen. 
- Sura Yasin is also then recited at weddings, happy occasions
- The Quran has 114 Suras. There are many other passages that we can be recited 
- i.e Sura Rahman which is known as the bride of Quran
- There should be a difference between the two types of events
- Let us keep our wedding ceremonies brief. Be merciful to the audience. Start the program on time.
- There is no recommendation to say 'Alhamdullilahi Rabbil Alameen' after Sura Fateha in namaz. 

"There are 114 Suras in the quran. One is associated for memorial services, which you want to recite at weddings. Are there no other Suras?"
"You want something associated with the wedding ceremony, recite a passage from Sura Rahman, known as 'the Bride of the Qur'an."
"Everything is Haq, but it has its own time and place."
"Let us keep our wedding ceremonies brief. Be merciful to the audience. Start the program on time."
