Answer:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Zaidis (also known as the fivers) are a strand of Shiaism.1<\/sup><\/a> They claim to be the followers of Zayd Ibn Ali Ibn Husayn R.A Ibn Ali R.A.2<\/sup><\/a> Though their wrong beliefs fall within the realm of Shiaism, they are not as vulgar towards the noble companions and in Fiqh they are similar to Hanafis,<\/span><\/p>\n
