JazakAllah for the reply brothers; it seems the opinions are uncertain or an absolute no!, so lets get to the bottom of this inshAllah and see what the general consensus here is; consensus is an indicator of the right way in Islam if I'm not mistaken I personally think that it is better to live under shia rule than total kuffar rule, and for those who regard shia as kuffar, then at least they have respect for some of Islam while christians/jews/athiests hate every aspect of it to the core; living under shia rule is in the worst case scenario ofcourse
