Rafidah Aziz 14 March 2002-3 (cropped)
''Rafida'' ( ar, رافضة, Rāfiḍah, Rejectors) is a term that broadly refers to Shīʿi Muslims who reject (rafḍ) the caliphates of the first two Rashidun, namely Abū Bakr and ʿUmar. Many Sunni scholars, however, have stated that the term Rāfiḍah cannot be applied to the Shīʿites in general but only to the extremists among them who believe in the divine right of ʿAlī to succeed Muḥammad and who condemn Abū Bakr and ʿUmar as unlawful rulers of the Muslim community. Etymology The word Rafida is an Arabic word, literally meaning "rejectors". The word is derived from the Arabic consonantal root ر ف ض (''r-f-ḍ''), which as a verb means "to reject". The non-collective singular form is ''rāfiḍī'' "one who rejects". Origin There is much debate of the exact origin of ''Rāfiḍa''. One example of an early instance is from the ''Kitāb al-Maḥāsin'' of Abū Jaʿfar Aḥmad ibn Muḥammad al-Barqī (died: 887 CE). The fourth section of the ''Kitāb al-Ma ...
