The people took Hazrat Ali (a.s.) to Abu Bakr and made him sit before him.[1] At that moment Umar stood behind him holding a sword to his neck. Khalid ibne Waleed, Abu Obaydah bin Jarrah, Saalem Maula Abu Huzayfah, Ma’az bin Jabal Mughayrah bin Shoaybah, Aseed ibne Saeed and some other companions were gathered there with their arms.
Hazrat Ali (a.s.) said, How soon have you attacked the house of the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.). O Abu Bakr! On the basis of which right, on the basis of which inheritance or which merit are you seeking allegiance from the people. Did you not, on the order of the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.), give bay’at to me and acknowledge my wilayat and leadership?[2] At this, Umar sat on Hazrat Ali’s (a.s.) thigh and held him tight with both hands.[3] He shook Hazrat Ali (a.s.) and said, “Leave all this aside and just do bay’at. ” Hazrat Ali (a.s.) challenged him saying, “and if I do not agree to give bay’at? ” They said, “We will kill you with utmost disgrace and humiliation.” Some narrations attribute this statement to Abu Bakr and others to Umar – “We swear by La ilaha illallah, we will sever your head.”
Hazrat Ali (a.s.) asked, “Will you kill a servant of God and the brother of the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.)?” Umar or Abu Bakr replied, “We accept that you are a servant of God. But your claim to be the brother of the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) is not correct.”[4]
Hazrat Ali (a.s.) said, “if my Lord had not made a clear decision in this regard, and if my brother, the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) had not taken a covenant from me, I would have shown you all whose helpers and aides are less.” Then Ali (a.s.) turned his attention towards the people and said, “O Muslims, Mohajir and Ansar both, I ask you for the sake of Allah, did you not hear the narration of the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) on the day of Ghadeer? Did you not hear what he (s.a.w.) said on the Day of Tabuk?”
Then Hazrat Ali (a.s.) questioned the people one by one about all those reports, which were made by the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) in his favor on innumerable occasions. Each one of them said, yes, we have heard this from the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.).
Sensing that the people may change their minds and become prepared to support Hazrat Ali (a.s.), Abu Bakr stepped forward and said, “Whatever you have said is correct and is the truth. We heard all this with our ears and captured it well within our hearts. But then we also heard the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) say, “Allah has chosen us, Ahle’ Bayt (a.s.) and granted us respect and honor. He favored us and chose the hereafter for us over this world. Surely Allah did not ordain both Nabuwwat and Khilafat for us (at one place).”
Hazrat Ali (a.s.) said, “Has any companion other than you heard this tradition?”
Umar said, “The caliph of Allah has spoken the truth. Yes, I have heard this tradition too.”
Abu Obaydah who was the freed slave of Huzayfah, Salem and Ma’az bin Jabal also said that yes, we have heard this tradition from the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.).
Hazrat Ali (a.s.) said, “In reality, you are fulfilling the accursed pact, which you made amongst yourself in the Ka’bah – that if ever Mohammed is killed or departs from this world, we will snatch the caliphate from the Ahle’ Bayt (a.s.).”
Hearing this, Abu Bakr was stunned. He said, “How did you come to know of this? We never disclosed this to you.”
Hazrat Ali (a.s.) said, “Zubayr, Salman, Abu Zar and Miqdad – I ask you one question for the sake of Allah. Were you not present when the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) narrated that “some people” – he (s.a.w.) even took their names – had made a pact amongst themselves. Is this not the same pact which is being put into effect here?
All of them answered in the affirmative and confirmed that they had heard this narration of the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) – that these people had made a disruptive pact amongst themselves to act in this manner – that if I die, O Ali, these people will seek to take the caliphate far away from you. At that time, you had asked the Holy Prophet what would be the best course of action when this event occurs.
The Holy Propet (s.a.w.) said, “If you find supporters and helpers then perform jehad with the Quran. If you are forsaken and do not find helpers, then take all possible steps to protect your life.”
Hazrat Ali (a.s.) said, “I swear by Allah! If the 40 people who swore allegiance to me would have been faithful, I would have surely done jehad with you for the sake of Allah. I swear by Allah, you will not find this in your progeny till the Day of Qiyamat. And you dare to falsify this saying of Allah with the narration of the Prophet (s.a.w.)?”
“In this verse, the word Kitab means Nabuwwat, Hukumat means Sunnat, Mulk means Khilafat and Ale’ Ibrahim means us, Ahle’ Bayt (a.s.)”
At this moment, Boraydah stood up and said, “O Umar, did not the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) order you and Abu Bakr to go to Ali (a.s.) and to convey salaam to him and address him as Ameerul Mo’meneen? Then you both questioned the Prophet (s.a.w.) whether this order from was from Allah (s.w.t.). The Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) had replied, yes.”
Abu Bakr spoke up, “O Boraydah, this was as you say. But you were not present there while we were. After this, there arose a completely different situation.”
Another narration reports that Abu Bakr replied, “Yes, it was as you say. But after this, the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) said that both Nabuwwat and Khilafat will not be present in Ahle’ Bayt (a.s.).”
Boraydah said, “By Allah, did the Prophet (s.a.w.) say such a thing?”
Umar shouted, “What do you have to do with these matters. Why are you interfering in this issues?”
Boraydah replied, “I do not like to stay in the same city as you.” After this Umar ordered that Boraydah be thrown out of the city.
Then Janabe’ Salman arose and addressed the gathering as follows, “O Abu Bakr, fear Allah. Step down from your position and return the seat to it rightful owners. By this action, people will be able to lead their lives in peace and safety till the Day of Qiyamat. There will remain no dispute amongst the people.”
Abu Bakr did not have any reply to this. Salman repeated his words. Umar pushed Salman and said to him, “what say do you have in these matters?” Salman asked Umar to calm down and addressed Abu Bakr, “O Abu Bakr, relieve your position and return it to its rightful owners. By this action, people will be able to lead their lives in peace and safety till the Day of Qiyamat. If you do not do so, there will be bloodshed and dispute will be rife amongst the people. By Allah! If I knew that I could protect a single oppressed person, or be the cause of pride for Islam, then I would fight shoulder to shoulder with my sword. But you have joined forces to rebel against the successor of the Prophet (s.a.w.). Then become ready to face calamities and despair of ever regaining peace.”
Then Janabe’ Abu Zar arose and addressed the gathering as follows, “O the people who have been deviated after the prophet! O the people who have been disgraced by their disobedience! Allah (s.w.t.) has said
“Surely Allah chose Adam and Nuh and the descendants of Ibrahim and the descendants of Imran above the nations. Offspring, one of the other; and Allah is Hearing, Knowing”
(Surah Ale Imran verse 33/34)
They are the respected Aale’ Mohammed from the progeny of Hazrat Nuh (a.s.). They are Ale’ Ibrahim who continued from Janabe’ Ismail. They are the family of the prophet (s.a.w.). The centre of prophethood, the place of angels. Their position is elevated like the heavens, firm like the mountains and sacred like the Ka’aba. They are the fountainhead of purity and the rising stars, the blessed tree, sweet nectar and beautiful blossoms.
The Holy Prophet Mohammed Mustafa (s.a.w.) Khatmun Nabiyyeen (the seal of the prophets) is the master of all prophets and Ali (a.s.) is the leader of vicegerents – the chief of the pious, a shining star for the guided. He is Siddeeqe’ Akbar and Farooque’ Azam and none other than him is the heir of the Prophet (s.a.w.) and the inheritor of his knowledge. He has more authority on the selves of Mo’meneen than they have over themselves. As Allah declared in the Holy Quran,
“The Prophet has a greater claim on the faithful than they have on themselves, and his wives are (as) their mothers; and the possessors of relationships have the better claim in the ordinance of Allah to inheritance, one with respect to another, than (other) believers, and (than) those who have fled (their homes), except that you do some good to your friends; this is written in the book ”
(Surah Ahzab verse 6)
Then you prefer those whom Allah has preferred and follow those whom Allah has ordered to follow. Then whoever Allah has chosen as his wali and his representative, you accept him and submit to him.”
After this Abu Zar, Miqdad and Ammar addressed Hazrat Ali (a.s.), “What is your command for us.” If you order us, we will keep fighting for the truth till our death. Hazrat Ali (a.s.) replied, “May Allah bless you with His Mercy. Be silent. Remember what the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) has willed. Then these people become silent.
After this the grandmother of the Prophet (s.a.w.) and Janabe’ Umme' Salma came forward and said, “O Ateeq! To what extent have you expressed your intense jealousy for the family of Mohammed” Umar ordered them to be expelled from the mosque and said, “What do we have to do with the talks of women.”[5]
Then Umar turned to Abu Bakr (at this time, Abu Bakr was seated on the pulpit of the mosque) and said, “Who made you sit on the pulpit? (granted you with the authority to take decisions) These people (Hazrat Ali (a.s.)) continue to sit (oppose) you and refuse to stand and swear allegiance to you. Why don’t you order that they be beheaded?”
Imam Hasan (a.s.) and Imam Hussain (a.s.) were standing there and witnessing this scene. On hearing these harsh words from Umar, they began crying. Hazrat Ali (a.s.) embraced them and said, “Don’t cry, these people cannot murder your father.” At this moment, Umar once again said, “O son of Abu Talib, stand up and offer your allegiance!”
Hazrat Ali (a.s.) challenged him, “and if I refuse to do so?” Umar replied, “We will sever your head from your body”
Then Hazrat Ali (a.s.) turned his face towards the sky and said, “O my Lord! You be a witness to these events.” The people then tried to forcibly open the hands of Hazrat Ali (a.s.), but he clenched them so tightly that none was able to do so. Finally, Abu Bakr rubbed his hand over the clenched fist of Hazrat Ali (a.s.).
At this moment, Hazrat Ali (a.s.) said, “I heard the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) say that some selected, powerful and influential companions will come to me on the Day of Qiyamat so that they may pass over the Bridge of Seraat. They will see me and I will see them. They will recognise me and I will recognise them. But they will be taken far away from me. I (s.a.w.) will call out to my Lord, “These are my companions, these are my companions…” I will receive a reply, “O Mohammed, you do not know what these companions have done after your death. As soon as you left them, they turned away from the religion.” I will then order that they be taken away and enveloped in punishment"
The people took Hazrat Ali (a.s.) to Abu Bakr and made him sit before him.[1] At that moment Umar stood behind him holding a sword to his neck. Khalid ibne Waleed, Abu Obaydah bin Jarrah, Saalem Maula Abu Huzayfah, Ma’az bin Jabal Mughayrah bin Shoaybah, Aseed ibne Saeed and some other companions were gathered there with their arms.
Hazrat Ali (a.s.) said, How soon have you attacked the house of the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.). O Abu Bakr!

Hazrat Ali (a.s.) asked, “Will you kill a servant of God and the brother of the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.)?” Umar or Abu Bakr replied, “We accept that you are a servant of God. But your claim to be the brother of the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) is not correct.”[4]
Hazrat Ali (a.s.) said, “if my Lord had not made a clear decision in this regard, and if my brother, the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) had not taken a covenant from me, I would have shown you all whose helpers and aides are less.” Then Ali (a.s.) turned his attention towards the people and said, “O Muslims, Mohajir and Ansar both, I ask you for the sake of Allah, did you not hear the narration of the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) on the day of Ghadeer?

(Surah Nisa: verse 54)

Lolzzz, what a story created by the author about Ali ibne Talib (RA), the Lion of Allah. Shame on this author, how could Lion of Allah, who destroyed the Gate of Khyber with his one arm be subdued. This narration is nothing but pack of lies. Ali (RA) was an ardent supporter and most important member of the cabinets of all the caliphs before him.
ReplyDeleteMr. Anonymous,
ReplyDeleteThis is not a story created by the author.All these things are found in shia - sunni books.
The incident of burning of door of Fatima(AS) is mentioned in many authentic sunni sources.
Ali(AS) was not subdued and cannot be subdued by anyone.( This is the belief of every Shia around the world)
Ali(AS) was a divine leader and divine leader act in the interest of religion.
Ali(AS) did not attack Umar and his goons when he was dragged from his house was due to the will of Prophet(SAWA) in which he had instructed Ali(AS) to bear the oppressions with patience to save the muslims from civil war and to protect Islam from internal and external enemies of Islam.
Ali(AS) did not want to spill the blood of muslims on the issue of Caliphate. He was appointed by Allah and he did not want to forced his Caliphate on the people.
If you go and study history you would come to know that Ali(AS) was left alone by the Ummah and almost everyone had pledge allegiance to Abu Bakr due to pressure from the newly formed Government.
If Ali(AS) had fought, what would have been the result??
People would have said that Ali(AS) killed the innocent people for the sake of Caliphate.
And Ali(AS) status was well above all these.
And one more thing, Ali(AS) did not support them. Ali(AS) supported Islam. Ali(AS) gave time to time important advises to them to protect Islam and Muslims from humiliations and defeat.
That doesn't mean he was supporter of first 3 caliphs. He never accepted any posts and neither was he offered any post by the 3 Caliphs. This is sufficient proof to prove that Ali(AS) helped these people for Islam.
How could he support the Caliphate of these 3 when the Caliphate of these 3 itself was not based on any concrete Islamic laws ??
Can you prove the Caliphate of Abu Bakr from Quran and authentic traditions of Prophet (SAWA) ??
Who gave Abu Bakr the right to appoint Umar as his Caliph , when Prophet(SAWA) did not appoint any Caliph(as per sunnis) ??Why did he not consult the Muslims on this issue ??
Why Umar appointed only a committee of 6 person to select a Caliph ???
Where are these things mentioned in Qur'an and the traditions of Prophet(SAWA) ??
Who told these 3 caliphs to innovate these things in Islam??
Why Ali(AS) did not fight Umar and his goons when he was dragged from his house ??
ReplyDeleteWas Ali(AS) a supporter of the previous Caliphs??
The reasons , why Ali(AS) did not defend himself and was he a supporter of first 3 Caliphs could be found in some of the below given URLs of the posts on our site.

I didn't think any self respecting muslim would believe such a fantasy about the lion of Alla or the rest of te blessed companions (R.A)
ReplyDeleteDo u think all these things are fantasy, inspite of d fact that these things are found in innumerable shia and sunni books? ?
ReplyDeleteWhy r u adamant in ur belief that all sahabas r righteous??
Can u prove from quran that all sahabas were infallible?
Umar was responsible for many crimes and these things are found in shia n sunni books
Lion of Allah - Ali (AS) defending Islam by killing the bravest and strongest among the enemies.
ReplyDeleteBut how could he attack the so called Muslims who dragged him on the order of the newly elected government ???
What would have been the result if he had spilled the blood of so called Muslims to defend himself and his family???
Ali (as) bore all the tortures to safeguard Muslims from any civil war which could have resulted due to any reaction from Ali(AS).
This had been said by Imam Ali(AS) and the Imams from his generations which could be found in numerous books.
Being a divine leader and according to the will made by the Prophet (SAWA) , he(AS) acted in the interest of Islam and bore everything with patience.
More they fabricate more they disclosed themselves, once i asked one of my friend do you know what is status today in heaven of Abu Bakar and Umer rz, he said no i dont know and how could one can know... I replied so you dont know what Allah swt wishes for him, then how could you say...... My friend has no answer to that.... Researchers are verily distinguished from fabricators. Lanat allah e allal kazebeen.....

ReplyDeleteDear Mr. Agha,
ReplyDeleteIf you mean to say that since Shias do not know the position of Umar and Abu Bakr in Heaven, they should not talk about these personalities and whatever Shias are saying are all fabrications.
Then our replies to your baseless accusation is this :
We Shias very well know those who are the people of Heaven according to the traditions of Holy Prophet(SAWA).
As far as Umar and Abu Bakr positions in Heaven is concerned, you may derived the conclusion from the below given traditions from the most reputed book of traditions - Sahih Bukhari ( most authentic book after Quran for our Sunni brothers).
Holy Prophet(SAWA) said :
“Fatima is a part of me, and whoever makes her angry, makes me angry.”
(Sahih Bukhari: Volume 5, Book 57, Number 111)
According to the tradition, Fatima al-Zahra , having such a strong relationship with her dad, the Prophet of Islam, that he said whoever angers her, angers him as well. But that is not all, according to the Prophet of Islam in the afterlife; she (Fatima al-Zahara) will be the leader of all the women in heaven:
Sahih Bukhari: Volume 4, Book 56, Number 819:
Narrated ‘Aisha:
Once Fatima came walking and her gait resembled the gait of the Prophet. The Prophet said, “Welcome, O my daughter!” Then he made her sit on his right or on his left side, and then he told her a secret and she started weeping. I asked her, “Why are you weeping?” He again told her a secret and she started laughing. I said, “I never saw happiness so near to sadness as I saw today.” I asked her what the Prophet had told her. She said, “I would never disclose the secret of Allah’s Apostle.” When the Prophet died, I asked her about it. She replied. “The Prophet said.) ‘Every year Gabriel used to revise the Qur’an with me once only, but this year he has done so twice. I think this portends my death, and you will be the first of my family to follow me.’ So I started weeping. Then he said. ‘Don’t you like to be the mistress of all the ladies of Paradise or the mistress of all the lady believers? So I laughed for that.”
In Sahih al-Bukhari the following has also been narrated by Aisha:
Fatimah the daughter of the Prophet sent someone to Abu Bakr (when he was a caliph), asking for her inheritance of what Allah's Apostle had left of the property bestowed on him by Allah from the Fai (i.e. booty gained without fighting) in Medina, and Fadak, and what remained of the Khumus of the Khaibar booty. ...but Abu Bakr refused to give anything of that to Fatimah. So she became angry with Abu Bakr and kept away from him, and did not talk to him till she died. She remained alive for six months after the death of the Prophet. When she died, her husband 'Ali, buried her at night without informing Abu Bakr and he said the funeral prayer by himself.
Sunni References:
- Sahih al-Bukhari, Chapter of "The battle of Khaibar", Arabic-English,
v5, tradition #546, pp 381-383, also v4, Tradition #325
Now either Fatimah was liar or Abu Bakr treated her unjustly. If she was liar, then she did not deserve such a saying from the Prophet that Fatimah is a part of me and whoever angers her, angers me. This itself is a clear indication of her infallibility. The purification sentence of the Holy Quran (the last sentence of verse 33:33) is another indication of her
infallibility, as Aisha herself testified (See Sahih Muslim, 1980 Edition, Arabic, v4, p1883, Tradition #61).
Hence there is nothing left for the sensible people but to accept the fact that she was unjustly treated by Umar and Abu Bakr.
So dear , there is no fabrication from our side and we know fully well that those who angered Fatima(AS) could not be the people assured Heaven by the Prophet(SAWA)
You idiots are the reason muslims accross the world are in such condition let allah be judge of whats right and wrong who are u to judge what side is your side
ReplyDeleteAllah ha given you Mind, Eyes etc to judge wrong n rite.... We should be clear about everything which is rite n wrong... We neeed to find it out. Kindly campare sahih bukhare with above..... So that you will get the pfopprguidence
DeleteI just can't imagine how deviant and devil a person has to be to believe in such disgraceful and disrespectful stories. A belief in them not only disrespects Hadrat Abu Bakr and Hadrat Umar RA but also disrespects our beloved Prophet PBUH and the lion Hadrat Ali RA as well. Just lies upon lies and nothing.. Just lies...

So it is equally important for all of us to know where is the truth and who are the people to be followed after the Prophet(SAWA) so as to remain on the path of Truth.
ReplyDeleteThere were all types of people in the companions of the Prophet(SAWA) so it is very important for us to know who were the people in the early Islam so that we can separate the correct Ahadith from the Ahadith cooked by Banu Umayyad and others.
Dear Naveed Akram and others,
ReplyDeleteWhy are u not believing the facts founds in your books ?????
How could it be cooked stories when it is found in your important books ???
Was Abu Bakr and Umar Infallible like Prophet(SAWA) that they would not commit any sin ????
Did Allah say in Quran that all the Companions of the Prophet(SAWA) are going to be righteous and free from sins???
Why re u so blind in your love for companions that u r not able to accept the truth ????
Hazart Ali the Lion did not want to fight against his own people. The Quranic Verses quoted above are enough evidence that the family of Abraham and the Prophet were meant to be in Khilafat. This is a excellent report
ReplyDeleteAllahu akbar...u hv given wrong translation of ayath.
ReplyDeleteStop creating dispute
Surah An-Nisa, Verse 54:
أَمْ يَحْسُدُونَ النَّاسَ عَلَىٰ مَا آتَاهُمُ اللَّهُ مِن فَضْلِهِ فَقَدْ آتَيْنَا آلَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْكِتَابَ وَالْحِكْمَةَ وَآتَيْنَاهُم مُّلْكًا عَظِيمًا
Or do they envy the people for what Allah has given them of His grace? But indeed We have given to Ibrahim's children the Book and the wisdom, and We have given them a grand kingdom.
(English - Shakir)
via iQuran
Up until the prophet there were many hypocrites and that's why surah Munafiqoon was revealed. After prophet all of them became so sincere as if they were waiting for prophet to leave this world. Can any one believe that? Umar was the leader of Munafiqs because Prophet said to Ali, no momin will be your enemy. Umar dragged the daughter of prophet and Ali to court and that's why he was a munafiq. We can conclude from that the followers of Umar are today's munafiq. Those who knowingly trust him, some are naive so they just folow th herd but will be questioned on the day of judgement. Crossing the bridge of Siraat will only be by those who get a pass from ALI.

ReplyDeleteThis is from nahjul balagha the most authentic book for shia brothers.
Verily, those who swore allegiance to Abu Bakr, `Umar and `Uthman have sworn allegiance 1 to me on the same basis on which they swore allegiance to them. (On this basis) he who was present has no choice (to consider), and he who was absent has no right to reject; and consultation is confined to the muhajirun and the ansar. If they agree on an individual and take him to be Caliph it will be deemed to mean Allah's pleasure.
