Why Shias curse Umar ?? Is it right to curse the Companion of Prophet(sawa)??

A lot of times Shias are accused of Cursing Umar and Abu Bakr……….So let us see how Holy Prophet (asws) cursed those who would Harm His Pure Progeny, and stop respecting them.

We find a narration in Mustadrak Imam Hakim, with talkhees of Dhabi, 102 – حدثنا أبو محمد عبد الله بن جعفر بن درستويه الفارسي ثنا يعقوب بن سفيان الفارسي
و حدثنا أبو بكر بن إسحاق الفقيه ثنا الحسن بن علي بن زياد قالا : ثنا إسحاق بن محمد الفروي ثنا عبد الرحمن بن أبي الموال القرشي
و أخبرني محمد بن المؤمل ثنا الفضل بن محمد الشعراني ثنا قتيبة بن سعد ثنا عمرو بن حزم عن عمرة عن عائشة قالت : قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم : ستة لعنتهم لعنهم الله و كل بني مجاب المكذب بقدر الله و الزائد في كتاب الله و المتسلط بالجبروت يذل من أعز الله و يعز من أذل الله و المستحل لحرم الله و المستحل من عترتي ما حرم الله و التارك لسنتي
قد احتج البخاري بعبد الرحمن بن أبي الموال و هذا حديث صحيح الإسناد و لا أعرف له علة و لم يخرجاه
تعليق الذهبي قي التلخيص : صحيح ولا أعرف له عل
Holy Prophet (asws) said: 6 groups of people are those who are Cursed by Me, and by Allah, and Prayer of every Prophet is accepted: (1) Who denies destiny of Allah (2) who introduces extra part in Allah (3) who tries to control the power in that he insults one who is given Respect by Allah, and respects the one disgraced by Allah (4) Who allows Haram of Allah {from what Allah prohibited} (5) who allows for my Progeny what is prohibited by Allah (6) who leaves my Sunnah {Hakim says} Bukhari has argued with Abdul rehman, and This Hadeeth is Sahih in chain.
 Dhabi says: Sahih. [1]  
Apart from Hakim and Dhabi, other Scholars who have accepted its authenticity, includes 1- Ibn Hajar Haithmi [2] 2- Hafiz Noor ud Deen Haithmi [3] 3- Ibn Hibban, as mentioned by Haithmi in Majma uz Zawaid 4- Ibn Abi Asim [4]
Having mentioned the authenticity, Let us now pay attention to the words of Prophet (asws) و المستحل من عترتي ما حرم الله Let us see what Scholars of Ahlu Sunnah said in explanation of this part. Ubaid ulllah al Mubarakfuri writes ‘ (والمستحل من عترتي ما حرم الله) أي من إيذائهم وترك تعظيمهم
(And they would allow for my Progeny what is Prohibited by Allah), this means giving Harm to them and disrespecting them. [5] ‘ Mulla Ali Qari writes in explanation ‘ قوله : والمستحل من عترتي ما حرم الله ) أي : من إيذائهم ، وترك تعظيمهم ، والعترة : الأقارب القريبة ، وهم أولاد فاطمة وذراريهم ، وتخصيص ذكر الحرم والعترة وكل مستحل محرم ملعون لشرفهما ، وإن أحدهما منسوب إلى الله ، والآخر إلى رسول الله ‘ And the saying: (who allows for my Progeny what has been prohibited by Allah). It is: teasing them and not respecting them. And al Etra, it means the near relatives, and they are the Children of Fatima (asws) and their Progeny. [6]

And this explanation takes us to our subject ===> Curse of Allah and His Prophet (asws) is on Those who Harm His Progeny and Quit respecting them.

It is a well known fact found even in many Sunni Books that Hazrat Fatima- the beloved daughter of Holy Prophet(sawa) was disrespected by Umar and Abu Bakr in presence of many Sahabas and She was denied her right of FADAK. After few days , Hazrat Fatima was killed by Umar when he set the door of Hazrat Fatima on fire and pushed the burning door on her.She died due to the injury inflicted by Umar.

O! lovers of Holy Prophet(sawa) , join Holy Prophet(sawa) and  your Shia brothers  in Cursing Umar- the person responsible for harming the pure progeny of Prophet(sawa)
