Question
What is the status of 'Hizbullah' of Lebanon? Hamas, Hizbullah and Iran are allies. Is Hamas of the Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jama'ah?
Answer
Although Hamas is not a Shiah entity as is the Lebanese 'Hizbullah' group, it is in bed with the Shiahs. When Hamas was formed in 1987, it had an Islamic agenda. Its founder, Sheikh Ahmed Yaaseen was anti-Shiah. The present Hamas entity is no longer the Hamas founded by Sheikh Ahmed Yaaseen (Rahmatullah alayh).
In 1989, Sheikh Yaaseen issued the following statement regarding Hizbullah:
