I have thought about that before, but would a Shiite submit himself before King Saud the way Bambi did?

Twelver or Imami, Arabic: اis the largest branch of Islam.

Twelvers believe that the descendants of the Islamic prophet Muhammad through his daughter Fatimah and his son-in-law ‘Alī are the best source of knowledge about the Qur'an and Islam, the most trusted carriers and protectors of Muḥammad's Sunnah (traditions) and the most worthy of emulation.
