Arabic verb Rafada (َرَفَض) means: to refuse, and in the tradition of [[Sunni]] sect every [[Shi'a]] is referred to as rafidi (one who refuses), because he or she refuses the [[caliphate]] of the first three caliphs. Sunnis tend to denigrate Shi'as by labeling them with such a term and quote narrations from [[the Prophet (s)]] in this regard. On the contrary, Shi'as rely on some [[narrations]] to take the label as an honorific title for themselves. However, among Sunni scholars, [[Shafi'i]] holds that: if the term Rafidi signifies the love for [[the Progeny of Muhammad (s)]] then let everyone know that I am a Rafidi. | Arabic verb Rafada (َرَفَض) means: to refuse, and in the tradition of [[Sunni]] sect every [[Shi'a]] is referred to as rafidi (one who refuses), because he or she refuses the [[caliphate]] of the first three caliphs.
