    I don't know why people keep referring to me as Shiah. Not that it matters but I'm not Shiah. I reject any and all sectarian designations.

        @rezaaslan > equate to sectarianism. I imagine you know that, but from you tweet that wasn't clear at all.

        @S3_italy @rezaaslan Tuqyah in Urdu means Pillow, so you're right, most of the world, including Reza, "use Tuqyah."

        @rezaaslan i would believe the assumption is, since you're of Iranian extraction, that you must be Shia. inaccurate assumption, obviously.
