But yeah. Normal Ithna'ashari/ Twelver Shi'ism is by and large pretty fundamentalist.

There's 10 Ibadi in the polls, apparently.

Maybe this is their best chance to speak up ;P *wink wink* *nudge nudge*.

I know a guy who recently became Ibadi from being Hanafi Sunni. Really nice guy, told me why he became Ibadi and has helped me a lot as a Muslim. other than that, I don't know a whole lot about Ibāḍiyya.

Okay, so what is the true infallible form of Islam?

Remember, Imam Jaafar, Imam Abu Hanifa and Imam Malik worked with each other, despite holding different opinions.

You can find that in the Holy Qur'an: http://legacy.quran.com/4/69, http://legacy.quran.com/33/33, http://legacy.quran.com/49/14
We can only follow those who are set on the straight path. If those Imams and any other Muslim have declared themselves Sunni, or any other sect, then we as Muslim should not follow them as they are not on the straight path, as they have deviated.
That is, if they declared so.

I don't know. Does it matter? Isn't discrediting a Muslim because they refer to themselves as Sunni, Shia, Ibadi, Salafi, etc. dividing the Ummah?

If it isn't clear enough already, He follows his own Reformist Nondenominational Modernist type of Islam that mixes Borderline Qur'anism, Pan Africanism, and an extremely liberal use of itjihad.

Interesting, brother.

Just out of curiosity (always wanted to ask to the Ibadi on the site :P)

What Hadith Collections do you use and what is the method of interpreting them? (Do you view some of the Sahaba as unreliable because of the thing with Uthman and Ali? (ra) ), what is your stance on secularism? Who has the authority to interpret and transmit the teachings of Qur'an and Sunnah in the Ibadi way?

Yeah, I sort of go on a case by case basis. There aren't any Ibadi mosques near where I live so I have to make my own judgement. Secularism, I am somewhat pro secularism just because I have seen what Islamism has done, but I think sharia should be in effect. I'm not sure about our official position but I personally go by my own judgement on most areas.

So, because I mostly go to Turkish mosques and because most of my Muslim friends are Turkish and because my 'Islamic mentor' is Turk too, I decided to go the Hanafi Fiqh way.
