{{Quote|1=Muhammad bin Aqeel Shaafiyee, al-Nasa'ih al-Kaafiyah (p. 109), Bombay edition|2=I say our scholars agree on the fact that when needed, '''telling a lie is allowed, and this is Taqiyyah'''. But if we name this Taqiyyah, a lot of the scholars raise an objection, since Shi'as use this term. So '''the difference between Shi'a and Sunni is only the word difference'''.}}

{{Quote|1=Al-Nawawi, Al Minhaj Be Sharh Sahih Muslim (vol. 2, p. 106-266), published in Luknow|2='''All the scholars agree''' on the fact that if a cruel man comes to kill a person who is hiding, or comes to wrongfully take someone else's possessions, and asks for information about that (possession), then '''it is Wajib on everyone to conceal it and deny knowledge of its whereabouts. This is not only permissible but Wajib''' because its purpose is to protect an oppressed one from the grasp of an oppressor}}

{{Quote|1=Shah Abdul Aziz Dehlavi, Tauhfa Ithna Ashariyya, p. 337|2=It should be known that '''Taqiyyah is permissible, proven from the Qur'an''' one such verse is ," Let not the believers take for friends or helpers Unbelievers rather than believers: if any do that, in nothing will there be help from Allah: except by way of precaution, that ye may Guard yourselves from them. But Allah cautions you (To remember) Himself; for the final goal is to Allah. " and the other statement of Allah [swt]:
“He who disbelieves in Allah after his having believed, not he who is compelled while his heart is at rest on account of faith, but he who opens (his) breast to disbelief-- on these is the wrath of Allah, and they shall have a grievous chastisement.”
'''The definition of Taqiyyah is to oppose one’s life, property or honor and this can be of two types. Firstly, the enmity may be based on religion of belief, like a Kaafir and Muslim. Secondly, it may be based on the worldly things, like property, place, women and other belongings. Thus, Taqqiyah is also of two kinds'''…}}
{{Quote|1=Ahmed Fehmi Mesri, Hashia al-Mihal wa An-Nahal (vol. 1, p. 195), published in Cairo|2='''Taqiyyah is allowed''' at times of fear, and Tabbara said that our companions say that in times of need, Taqiyyah is allowed; rather, in some cases to create an environment of unity, it can also be used. And '''all the narrations which are present speak for it'''.}}
{{Quote|1=Abu Shakoor Saalmi, al-Tamheed fi Bayan al-Tauwheed (Ch. 1, pp. 18-19), published in Delhi|2=Similarly, Kufr is the worst act. But when one is forced to commit it through a threat of murder then '''it is permissible to adopt Taqiyyah''' and recite the Kalima of kufr; and such a person should not be deemed a Kaffir. Verily, '''the Shari'a has deemed it a favorable act to recite Kalima of Kufr under Taqqiyah'''}}
