<p>The term anti-Shi'a is prejudice or hatred towards Shiite Muslims based on their religion and heritage. Anti-Shi'a efforts portray Shia as dangerous teachings by linking the Iraq and Syria conflicts, thus forcing some religious groups and the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) to issue heretical fatwas for Shi'ite teachings. How does anti-Shi'a propaganda manifest in describing Shi'ism? This paper describes the plot and context of anti-Shi'a in Indonesia.

Abstract:
Judging from the history of the emergence of Shia there are different views of Shia leaders. Some say that the early emergence of Shi'ism was just a political movement. This is seen by the support for Sayyidina Ali as caliph after the death of the Prophet. Another opinion states his appearance as a supporter and follower of Sayyidina Ali in the battle of Jamal and Shiffin. However, it is different from a contemporary thinker who wrote about Shi'ism in the book Al-Khututh al-'Aridhah Li Dini al-Syi‘ah, namely Muhibuddin al-Khatib.

If we compare the religious tradition of Shi'ite Islam with the ideology Khomeini propounded from 1979 on, it emerges that Khomeini-style Islamism is more of a revolutionary political ideology falling within the category of Western Third-Worldism.
