SHIAS WERE HATED BY AHLEL BAYT ALI(ﻪﻨﻋ ﻪﻠﻟﺍ ﻰّﺿﺭ), HASAN (ﻰّﺿﺭ ﻪﻨﻋ ﻪﻠﻟﺍ), and HUSSAIN (ﻪﻠﻟﺍ ﻰّﺿﺭ ﻪﻨﻋ) HATED THE SHIA Ali (ﻪﻨﻋ ﻪﻠﻟﺍ ﻰّﺿﺭ), Hasan (ﻰّﺿﺭ ﻪﻨﻋ ﻪﻠﻟﺍ), and Hussain (ﻪﻠﻟﺍ ﻰّﺿﺭ ﻪﻨﻋ) hated the Shia’t Ali, the people who claimed to be their followers. The Shia were barbaric, ignorant, and uneducated Beduins from Iraq (i.e. Kufa) and Egypt who were new converts to Islaam and who mixed the Deen with their pagan beliefs. They were strongly affected by Abdullah Ibn Saba, the heretic who would try convincing the Shia’t Ali that Ali (ﻪﻨﻋ ﻪﻠﻟﺍ ﻰّﺿﺭ) was divinely appointed and had powers above that of a normal human being. Ibn Saba’s followers were known as the Saba’ites, the ancestors of the modern day Shia. Ali (ﻪﻨﻋ ﻪﻠﻟﺍ ﻰّﺿﺭ), Hasan (ﻰّﺿﺭ ﻪﻨﻋ ﻪﻠﻟﺍ), and Hussain (ﻪﻠﻟﺍ ﻰّﺿﺭ ﻪﻨﻋ) would soon hate the Shia’t Ali for their exaggerations, barbarism, and their cowardice on the battlefield. Ali (ﻪﻠﻟﺍ ﻰّﺿﺭ ﻪﻨﻋ), Hasan (ﻪﻨﻋ ﻪﻠﻟﺍ ﻰّﺿﺭ), and Hussain (ﻪﻨﻋ ﻪﻠﻟﺍ ﻰّﺿﺭ) hated their so-called supporters, and wished to be freed of them. These Shia would claim that they love Ahlel Bayt and yet they would continually betray and backstab Ahlel Bayt, and do things that the Ahlel Bayt forbade. Imam Jafar as-Sadiq (ﻪﻨﻋ ﻪﻠﻟﺍ ﻰّﺿﺭ) said the following about the so-called Shia: “No one bears greater hatred towards us [the Ahlel Bayt] than those who claim to love us.” [Abdullâh al-Mâmaqânî, Miqbâs al-Hidâyah vol. 2 p. 414 (Mu’assasat Âl al-Bayt li-Ihyâ’ at-Turâth, Beirut 1991) quoting from Rijâl al-Kashshî.] Ali condemned the Shia multiple times, and it is all recorded in the Nahjul Balagha, which the Shia consider sacred. Let us examine Sermon 34 in which Ali (ﻪﻨﻋ ﻪﻠﻟﺍ ﻰّﺿﺭ) says that his so-called supporters are not really his supporters and that he wants to be rid of them. You can also view the sermon on Al-Islam.org which is the most reliable Shia wesbite on the net. “Nahjul Balagha, Sermon 34 During the fight against the people of Syria [Muawiyyah], Ali said to his Shia: “Woe to you. I am tired of rebuking you. Do you accept this worldly life in place of the next life? Or disgrace in place of dignity? When I invite you to fight your enemy your eyes revolve as though you are in the clutches of death, and in the senselessness of last moments. My pleadings are not understood by you and you remain stunned. It is as though your hearts are affected with madness so that you do not understand. You have lost my confidence for good. Neither are you a support for me to lean upon, nor a means to honour and victory. Your example is that of the camels whose protector has disappeared, so that if they are collected from one side they disperse away from the other side.” source: al-islam.org /nahjul/34.htm In the same sermon, Ali (ﻰّﺿﺭ ﻪﻨﻋ ﻪﻠﻟﺍ) also condemns the Shia for being trouble-makers and fitnah-mongerers, saying: “By Allah, how bad are you for igniting flames of war.” Hasan did not trust these Shia either as they were very disloyal. In his book al-Ihtijâj, the prominent Shia author Abu Mansur at-Tabarsi has preserved the following remark of Hasan: “By Allah, I think Muawiyyah would be better for me than these people who claim that they are my Shia.” [Abû Mansûr at-Tabarsî, al-Ihtijâj vol. 2 p. 290-291 , Mu’assasat al-A‘lamî, Beirut 1989] Distrusting his Shia, Hasan (ﻪﻨﻋ ﻪﻠﻟﺍ ﻰّﺿﺭ) made peace with Muawiyyah (ﻪﻨﻋ ﻪﻠﻟﺍ ﻰّﺿﺭ) and gave him the Caliphate. His Shia protested at this, and Hasan’s reply (ﻪﻨﻋ ﻪﻠﻟﺍ ﻰّﺿﺭ) is preserved in the most important of the Shia books of Hadith, Al-Kafi: “By Allah, I handed over power to him for no reason other than the fact that I could not find any supporters. Had I found supporters I would have fought him day and night until Allah decides between us. But I know the people of Kufa. I have experience of them. The bad ones of them are no good to me. They have no loyalty, nor any integrity in word or deed. They are in disagreement. They claim that their hearts are with us, but their swords are drawn against us.” (Al-Kafi, vol. 8, p.288) How many times did the Shia betray the Ahlel Bayt on the battlefield? First, they betrayed Ali (ﻪﻨﻋ ﻪﻠﻟﺍ ﻰّﺿﺭ) in the Battle of Siffin. Second, they betrayed Hasan (ﻪﻨﻋ ﻪﻠﻟﺍ ﻰّﺿﺭ) who refused to even fight Muawiyyah (ﻪﻨﻋ ﻪﻠﻟﺍ ﻰّﺿﺭ) after that. Third, they betrayed Hussain’s cousin (Muslim Ibn Aqil) after they swore allegiance on his very hand, and the Shia let the men of Yezid take him away to his execution. Fourth, the Shia betrayed Hussain (ﻪﻨﻋ ﻪﻠﻟﺍ ﻰّﺿﺭ) on the battlefield, allowing Yezid’s men to chop him up. Fifth, the Shia betrayed Hussain’s grandson (Zayd ibn Ali ibn Hussain), defecting against him on the battlefield and leading to his death. Nahjul Balagha, Sermon 124 Ali says to his Shia: “You are not trustworthy to rely upon, nor are you holders of honor to be adhered to. You are very bad in kindling the fire of fighting. Woe to you! I had to bear a lot of worries from you. Some day I call you and some day I speak to you in confidence, you are neither true free men at the time of call, nor trustworthy brothers at the time of speaking in confidence.” source: al-islam.org /nahjul/124.htm Nahjul Balagha, Sermon 126 Ali says to his Shia: “Certainly you are the most evil of all persons and are those whom Satan has put on his lines and thrown out into his wayless land.” source: al-islam.org /nahjul/126.htm
