History of Taqiyya in Timeline
Taqiyya, primarily found in Shia Islam, refers to the practice of concealing one's religious beliefs and practices. This dissimulation is employed as a protective measure in situations where openly professing faith could lead to persecution or harm. It allows believers to outwardly conform to prevailing norms while maintaining their true beliefs internally. The concept is rooted in interpretations of the Quran and is considered permissible under specific circumstances to safeguard life and community integrity.
