Umar at Fatimah's house

Umar at Fatimah's house refers to a confrontation which took place at the home of Fatimah, daughter of the Islamic prophet Muhammad, shortly after the latter's death in 632 CE.

A group, led by the prominent sahaba Umar, went to the house to meet Fatimah's husband Ali and his partisans, with the aim of gaining their allegiance for the newly elected caliph, Abu Bakr. However, this resulted in a standoff between the two parties, the details of which are uncertain.

This event, which has mentions in Shia, Sunni, and western academic books, is also claimed by Shia sources^[1] to have led to Fatimah's miscarriage of her son Muhsin ibn Ali,^[2][3] as well as her own death shortly after.^[4] However, the veracity of this account is disputed, with beliefs being primarily split on sectarian lines between Sunni and Shia denominations.^[5]

 

In the immediate aftermath of the death of Muhammad, a gathering of the Ansar (natives of Medina) took place in the Saqifah (courtyard) of the Banu Sa'ida clan.^[6] The general belief at the time was that the purpose of the meeting was for the Ansar to decide on a new leader of the Muslim community from among themselves, with the intentional exclusion of the Muhajirun (migrants from Mecca), though this has since become the subject of debate.^[7] Nevertheless, Abu Bakr and Umar, both prominent sahabah of Muhammad, upon learning of the meeting became concerned of a potential coup and hastened there. After a partially heated debate, Abu Bakr was ultimately elected by those gathered as the new head of the Muslim community.^[8]

 

Though his ascension was near-universally accepted, Abu Bakr faced contention as a result of the rushed nature of his election. Several sahabah, most prominent among them being Ali ibn Abi Talib, initially refused to acknowledge his authority.^[6] Ali himself may have been reasonably expected to assume leadership, being both cousin and son-in-law to Muhammad.^[9] Among the Shia sect of Islam, it is also traditionally held that Ali had previously been designated by Muhammad as his desired heir, though this is subject to dispute.^[10] Whether his candidacy for the succession was raised during Saqifah is unknown, though it is not believed to be unlikely.^[11]

 

After the gathering at Saqifa, Umar (who had been among Abu Bakr's advocates) and his supporters were allegedly sent by the new Caliph to Ali's house where Ali, Fatimah and some of their allies were gathered.^[12] Several scholars, such as Al-Tabari and Ibn Qutaybah, narrate that Umar threatened to burn the building down if Ali refused to acknowledge Abu Bakr's authority, with Al-Tabari adding that Umar's men beat Ali's friend Zubayr ibn al-Awam.^{[13][14][15][16]} According to the Al-Imama wa al-Siyasa (mistakenly attributed to Ibn Qutaybah),^[17] when Umar was informed that Fatimah was inside the house, he responded that her presence made no difference to him.^[18][19]

 

While the historian Al-Baladhuri states that the altercation never became violent and ended with Ali's compliance,^[20] and Tabari makes no mention of Fatimah's involvement,^[13] some traditions add that Umar and his supporters forcibly entered the house, resulting in Fatimah's miscarriage of her unborn son Muhsin.^[21] Twelver Shia sources state that this occurred when Umar forced the front door open, crushing Fatimah behind it and breaking her ribs.^[1] However, the Mu'tazilite theologian Ibrahim al-Nazzam narrates that, "Umar hit Fatimah (sa) on the stomach such that the child in her womb died."^[22] Alternatively, Ibn Rustam Al-Tabari states that it was a client of Umar's named Qunfudh who caused the miscarriage, having struck her with the sheath of his sword.^[23] Other traditions add that Qunfudh had her whipped^[24] or had struck her face.^[25] The Kitab Sulaym ibn Qays (attributed to Sulaym ibn Qays, but possibly a later creation)^[26] concludes the incident with Ali being dragged out of the house with a rope tied around his neck.^[27]

 

Mohammad-Baqer Majlesi, writing in his Bihar al-Anwar, states that Fatimah died soon after due to injuries sustained during the altercation.^[4] The aforementioned Al-Imama wa al-Siyasa records that before her death, Fatimah said to Abu Bakr and Umar, "I take Allah and the angels to be my witness that you have not pleased me; on the other hand, you have angered me. When I shall meet the Prophet (S) I will complain about you two."^[28] According to Morteza Motahhari, she asked Ali to bury her at night to ensure that none of her enemies participated in her funeral.^[29]

The events that took place in the house have been the subject of dispute between various accounts, with the versions including violence primarily having Shia origins.^[1] Several early historical sources narrate that Fatimah's child Muhsin had died in early childhood rather than being miscarried. Al-Baladhuri, along with Al-Ya'qubi and Al-Masudi, list Muhsin among the children of Fatimah, but without any mention of a miscarriage. Similarly, the Shia theologian Al-Shaykh Al-Mufid, when writing his Kitab al-Irshad, makes no mention of violence in relation to Muhsin's death. The earliest known reference of the miscarriage during the altercation only appears in the 10th century, in Ibn Qulawayh Al-Qummi's Kamil al-ziyarat.^[30]

Other sources also add that Fatimah and Abu Bakr had ultimately reconciled,^[31] and that she died of illness,^[32] with him attending and praying at her funeral.^[33] Ali is also believed to have later willingly offered his oath of allegiance to Abu Bakr and gave a praise-filled oration during the latter's funeral.^[34] Professor Coeli Fitzpatrick surmises that the story of the altercation reflects the political agendas of the period and should therefore be treated with caution.^[21]

Reliable Shia/Sunni Sources on Martyrdom of Lady Fatima

Question:

Can you please provide reliable Shia and Sunni sources on the event that led to martyrdom of Lady Fatima al-Zahra (a.s.)?

Answer:

The Eminent Sheikh At-Tusi wrote: “One of the denied facts is that they (Umar and his followers) hit Fatima (the blessing of Allah be upon her) although it has been narrated that they flogged her with a strip and a famous opinion that no one amongst the Shia scholars dispute about, is that Umar hit her on her stomach (womb) until she was forced to have a miscarriage, where the miscarried baby was named Mohassan. The narration (of the event) is even famous amongst them (the Sunnis), as well as the narration of their intention to burn her house when a group of sincere companions who had refused to pay allegiance and sought refuge to her house. And no one can deny this narration because we have proven it from amongst the Sunni sources through the narration of Al-Balathari and others, and the Shia narrations are numerous and our scholars indisputably accept them.”

(Talkhis Al-Shafi 3:156)

The following are some of the related narrations from the Shia and Sunni sources:

 A. Sunni narrations

1) The purity of Fatima Zahra in the words of the Prophet:

a. Allah, The Exalted says: And those whom inflict harm on the Messenger of Allah will receive a chastising punishment. (Surat At-Tawba, verse 61).

The Messenger of Allah said: Fatima is part of me, whosoever angers her angers me! (Fat-h Al-Bari fi sharh sahih al-Bukhari 7:84, Sahih al-Bukhari – in the chapter ‘alamat an-nubuwwa 6:491, the last part of Kitabil Maghazi 8:110)

b. O Fatima! Verily Allah is angered by your anger and is pleased when you are pleased. (Mustadrak Al-Hakim 3:154, Majma’ Al-zawa-id 9:203)

c. O Fatima! Are you not pleased to be the leader of the ladies of the worlds, and the leader of the ladies of these people (ummah) and the leader of all believing ladies. (Mustadrak Al-Hakim 3:156)

2) The sacredness of Fatima’s house

a. The Messenger of Allah recited the following verse: “In houses which Allah has ordered to be raised, in them His Name is remembered”. A man approached him and asked him, “Which houses are they O Messenger of Allah?” He replied, “The houses of the Prophets”. So Abu Bakr asked him while pointing to the house of Ali and Fatima: “Is this house included amongst those houses?” The Messenger of Allah replied: “Yes, it is the best amongst them!” (Ad-Dur Al-manthur 6:203, Ruhul Ma’ani 18:174)

b. The Messenger of Allah used to recite the following verse at the door of Fatima’s house for six months, and according to other narrations nine months: “Verily Allah chooses to keep impurity distant from you Household (of the Prophet) and purify you a thorough purification.” (Ad-Dur Al-manthur 6:606)

3) The sacredness of Fatima’s house after the demise of her father

a. Abu Bakr bin Abi Shayba (born in 159 A.H., died 235 A.H.), the author of the book, Al-Musannaf, has narrated in a reliable narration: After the Prophet died and people pledged their allegiance to Abu Bakr, Ali and Zubayr used to approach Fatima, and consult her regarding their affairs.

When this news reached Umar bin al-Khattab, he went to approachFatimaand said to her: “O daughter of the Messenger of Allah, I swear by Allah that there is no one more beloved to us than your father and there is no one more beloved to us after your father than you. And by Allah, that will not prevent me from ordering your house to be burnt on them if they gather with you (at your house)”.

Abu Bakr bin Shayba said: When Umar left, they (Ali and Zubayr) returned to her. She said to them “Umar had just come to me and said that if you were to return here, he will burn the house on you, and I swear by Allah that he will do exactly what he has said.” (Al-Musannaf – Kitabul Maghazi 8:572)

b. An-Nassabi, commonly known as Ahmad bin Yahya Jabir Al-Baghdadi Al-Balathari (who passed away in the year 270 A.H), the author of Ansabul Ashraaf, narrates: Abu Bakr sent for Ali to pledge allegiance to him (Abu Bakr), but he (Ali) refused. So Umar came (to his house) with a fire-lamp. Fatimaencountered him at the door (of the house) and said: “O Ibn Al-Khattab, are you going to burn the door on ME?” He said “Yes! And this (burning the house) makes what your father had come with stronger…” (Ansaabul Ashraaf 1:586)

c. The famous historian Abdullah bin Muslim bin Qutayba Dinwari (who died in the year 276 A.H) has narrated: Abu Bakr realised that a group of people who were with Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) did not pledge allegiance to him (Abu Bakr). So he (Abu Bakr) sent Umar to them who called for them while they were in Ali’s house, but they refused to come out (to pledge allegiance). So Umar ordered his men to get wood and said: I swear by the One whom Umar’s soul is in His power, you have to get out (of the house) or I will burn it down on whosoever is inside it!” Someone said to him: “O Aba-Hafs, but Fatima is inside!” Umar replied: “So what!!” And he walked with a group of his men until he reached the door ofFatima’s house and knocked on it. When she heard their voices she cried loudly: “O father! O Messenger of Allah! What is being inflicted upon us after your death from ibn Al-Khattab and ibn Abi-Qohafah?!”

When the people (who were with Umar) heard the voice and the cry of Fatima, some of them left. Umar with a few members of the group remained, forced Ali out of the house, took him to Abu Bakr and told him “Pledge your allegiance!” He (Ali) replied, “And if I don’t then what?” They replied, “By Allah whom there is no other God but Him, we will cut off your head!” (Al-Imamah was-siyasah 13&12)

D. THE FAMOUS HISTORIAN MUHAMMAD BIN JARIR AT-TABARI (WHO PASSED AWAY IN THE YEAR 310 A.H) NARRATED: UMAR BIN AL-KHATTAB WENT TO THE HOUSE OF ALI. TALHA, ZUBAYR AND SOME MEN FROM THE MUHAJIREEN WERE ALSO INSIDE. HE (UMAR) SAID: BY ALLAH, I WILL BURN THE HOUSE ON YOU UNLESS YOU GO TO PLEDGE YOUR ALLEGIANCE (TO ABU BAKR). SO ZUBAYR CAME OUT WITH HIS SWORD DRAWN, BUT HE TRIPPED AND THE SWORD FELL FROM HIS HAND, SO (THE MEN WITH UMAR) CAPTURED HIM AND TOOK HIM. (TARIKHUL TABARI 2:443)

e. Ahmad, who is known as Ibn ‘Abd Rabbih Al-Undulosi, who is the author of the book Al-‘Iqdul Farid (who passed away in the year 463 A.H) has said: As for Ali, Al-Abbas and Zubayr, they remained in the house of Fatima until Abu Bakr sent Umar to force them out. He (Abu Bakr) instructed Umar: “If they refuse, then fight them!” So he (Umar) approached them with a burning flame to burn the house on them. So Fatima addressed him and said: “O ibn Al-Khattab! Have you come to burn our house?!” He said “Yes! Unless you do what the people have done!” (ie. pledge allegiance to Abu Bakr).  (Al-‘Iqdul Farid 4:93)

The attack on her house occurs

f. Abu Ubayd Al-Qasim bin Salaam (who died in the year 224 A.H) has narrated on the authority of Abdul Rahman bin ‘Ouf that Abu Bakr bin Abi Quhafa said: I wish that I did not raid the house of Fatima and that I left it even if the door was closed to (plan) war.  (Al-Amwaal 144)

G. ABUL-QASIM SULAYMAN BIN AHMAD AT-TABRANI (WHO DIED IN THE YEAR 360 A.H), THE AUTHOR OF THE BOOK AL-MU’JAM AL-KABIR, HAS NARRATED FROM ABI BAKR IBN ABI QUHAFA: AS FOR THE THREE THINGS THAT I WISH I NEVER DID, WAS THAT I WISH I DID NOT RAID FATIMA’S HOUSE AND I LEFT IT …. (AL-MU’JAM ALKABIR 1:62)

h. Ibn Abd-Rabbih Al-Undulosi has narrated in his book, Al-‘Iqdul Farid, from Abdul Rahman bin ‘Ouf that Abi Bakr ibn Abi Quhafa said: And I wish that I did not raid the house of Fatima for any reason even if they had the door closed to (plan) war. (Al-‘Iqdul Farid 4:93)

i. Ibrahim bin Sayyar al-Nazzam; the Mu’tazali (who died in the year 231 A.H) narrated: On the day of pledging allegiance (to Abu Bakr) Umar hit the stomach of Fatima until she miscarried Muhassan. (Al-Wafi bil Wafiyyat 6:17)

j. Muhammad bin Yazid bin Abdil Akbar Al-Baghdadi (who died in the year 285 A.H), the famous author of the book Al-Kamil, narrated from Abdil Rahman bin ‘Ouf from Abi Bakr bin Abi Qohafa: I wish I did not raid Fatima’s house and that I left it even if the door was closed to (plan) war.  (Sharh Nahjul Balagha li-ibn Abi Al-Hadid 2:46)

k. Al-Masudi (who died in the year 325 A.H) has narrated in his book titled Muruj Al-thahab: Abu Bakr said at the time of his death: “I wish I did not seek to raid the house of Fatima”, and he mentioned many things about that incident.” (Muruj Al-Thahab 2:301)

l. Ibn Abi Darim (who died in the year 357 A.H) has narrated in his book Mizan Al-I’tidal: Umar kicked Fatima until she miscarried Muhassan. (Mizan Al-I’tidal 3:459)

m. The contemporary historian, Abdul Fattah Abdul Maqsood, stated in his book ‘Imam Ali’: That Umar bin Al-Khattab said “I swear by the One whom Umar’s soul is in His power, they must come out of the house or else I will burn it on whoever is inside it …!”

A group of the people (who were with Umar) who feared Allah and guarded (the teachings of) the Prophet said: “O Aba-Hafs, Fatima is inside!”

He carelessly screamed: “So what … !” He then approached and knocked on the door, then he hit the door open and invaded it … and Ali appeared to him … at that moment Fatima’s voice was heard from the doorway of the house … she was crying for help … (Abdul Fattah Abdul Maqsood: Ali bin Abi Taleb 4:276)

n. Moqatil ibn ‘Atiyyah narrated in his book ‘Al-Imamah wal Khilafah’: After Abu Bakr took the allegiance of people by force, using his sword and power, he sent Umar and Qunfuth and a group of men to the house of Ali and Fatima. Umar collected wood and put them at the doorway of Fatima’s house and burnt the door down … (Al-Imamah wal khilafah 160-161)

B. SHIA NARRATIONS 

As for the Shia narrations, it suffices to mention a few of them.

1) Ibn Qawlawayh narrated in his book ‘Kamilul Ziyarat’ in a reliable hadith from Hammad Bin ‘Uthman from Imam Al-Sadiq (a.s.): On the night of the Prophet’s ascension, it was said to him (the Prophet): “Allah will test you in three things” and he started counting them… then he said “as for your daughter, she will be oppressed and deprived (of her right) and her right (to Fadak) that you will give to her will be seized from her and she will be hit while she is pregnant, and her house (and privacy of her family) will be entered without permission, then weakness and humiliation will be inflicted upon her and she will not be able to prevent it, and she will miscarry her baby from all the hits she will suffer, and she will die as a result of those hits … and the murder of Muhassan bin Ali will be the first crime that the killer (Umar) will be accountable, and then Qunfuth, so they will both attend (the judgement).” (Kamilul Ziyarat 232)

2) Yunus bin Ya’qub has narrated from Imam Al-Sadiq (a.s.) that the Imam said: O Yunus! My grandfather the Messenger of Allah said “Cursed is the one who will oppress my daughter Fatima after I die, and seize her right and kill her!” (Kanzul Fawa-id 1:149)

3) Al-Kulayni has narrated from Abi Basir from Imam Al-Sadiq (a.s.) who said: Amir Al-mumineen (i.e. Imam Ali) said: “Your miscarried babies whom you do not name before they die, will meet you on the Day of Judgement, and the baby will ask it’s father “Did you not give me a name?” Verily the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.s.) named Muhassan before he was to be born.” (Al-Kafi 6:18)

4) Muhammad bin Harun Al-Talakbari has narrated in a reliable narration from Abi Basir from Imam Al-Sadiq (a.s.) who said: Fatima was born on the twentieth day of Jamadil-akhira, forty-five years after the birth of the Prophet. And the cause of her death was that Qunfuth, the slave of the man (i.e. Abu Bakr), by the command of his master (Abu Bakr), hit her with his sword, from which she miscarried Muhassan, and she became severely ill from this event. And she did not allow anyone of those whom harmed her to enter her house. There were two of the companions of the Prophet (i.e. Umar and Abu Bakr) who asked Amir Al-mumineen (Imam Ali) to intercede on their behalf (and ask Fatima to allow them to enter). He (Imam Ali) asked her and she permitted (for them to enter). When they entered, they remarked “How are you O daughter of the Messenger of Allah?” She replied “I am well, praise to Allah”. Then she told them both, “Have you not heard the Prophet say “Fatima is a part of me, whosoever hurts her has in fact hurt me, and whoever hurts me has in fact hurt Allah”?” They both affirmed that. She said “I swear by Allah that you have both hurt me.” So they both left the house and she was displeased with them.   (Dala-il Al-Imamah 45)

5) Sayyed Bin Tawoos has narrated in his book Al-Turaf on the authority of Imam Al-Kathim (a.s.) who said: When the Messenger of Allah was in the last stages of his life, he summoned people of the Ansar and told them “Verily Fatima’s door is my door and her house is my house, whosoever violates it has in fact violated the sanctity of Allah.” The Imam cried for a while and could not continue his words, then he said: “I swear by Allah, the sanctity of Allah has been violated! I swear by Allah, the sanctity of Allah has been violated! I swear by Allah, the sanctity of Allah has been violated! O my mother, blessings of Allah upon her!”  (Bihar Al-Anwar 22:476).

Allah’s peace and blessings be upon Lady Fatima, the day she was born, the day she passed away, and the day she will be resurrected.

Why Do Shias hate the Sahaba like Umar, Uthman and Abu Bakr ?

We hate them for what they did. I mean their actions. They deserve to be hated for them. Allah(swt) created everyone equal and it is only the actions which gives one some merits over the other. As I had cleared the answer, you can believe me and stop here, or you can read further from my blog:

I request you to read Sahih Al Bukhari and Sahih Al Muslim. Every innovation that came to Islam was during the time of the 2nd caliph. He was the only one who always questioned the acts of the Holy Prophet to the extent that he doubted numerous times on the revelation. Secondly, Al tabari in his works mentions the incident of Saqifa how Umar ibn al Khattab came with his men along with Khalid ibn Walid on the house of Fatima a.s. and tried to burn the house. The events unfortunately led to the miscarriage of the unborn child of Fatima a.s. and later resulted in her own death because of that injury. Thirdly Umar was the one who did not allow the Holy Prophet to write his last will of advice to the muslims.

Narrated Ibn 'Abbas:

When Allah's Apostle was on his death-bed and in the house there were some people among whom was 'Umar bin Al-Khattab, the Prophet said, "Come, let me write for you a statement after which you will not go astray." 'Umar said, "The Prophet is seriously ill and you have the Qur'an; so the Book of Allah is enough for us." The people present in the house differed and quarrelled. Some said "Go near so that the Prophet may write for you a statement after which you will not go astray," while the others said as Umar said. When they caused a hue and cry before the Prophet, Allah's Apostle said, "Go away!" Narrated 'Ubaidullah: Ibn 'Abbas used to say, "It was very unfortunate that Allah's Apostle was prevented from writing that statement for them because of their disagreement and noise."

— Muhammad al-Bukhari, Sahih al-Bukhari

Then how does a fellow muslim who is aware of this, could possibly have a soft heart with such a person.

اب اگر تمُ کہو کہ اُنہوں نے بلا کسی خوف کے قوم کو چھوڑا تو تمُ نے کُفر کیا اور اگر کہو کہ واقعی قوم اُنکی جان کے درپے ھوگئ تھی اسلیۓ وہ وھاں سے چلے گۓ تو تمہارے نبی ﷺ کا وصی اُن سے زیادہ مجبوُر تھا
۔
ھاروُن علیہ السّلام کی تاسئ کی جیسا کہ اُنہوں نے کہا :

" یابْنَ أُمَّ إِنَّ الْقَوْمَ اسْتَضْعَفُونِی وَکَادُواْ یَقْتُلُونَنِی " ( سورۃ الاعراف آئیت 151 )
ترجمہ :
" اے میرے ماں جاۓ ، تحقیق کہ قوم نے مجھے ( تیرے بعد ) ضعیف سمجھا اور قریب تھا کہ مجھے قتل کردیتے "
۔
اب اگر تم کہو کہ انہوں نے بلاوجہ ایسا کہا اور گئو سالہ کی پرستش سے بنا کسی وجہ کے نہیں روکا تو تم نے کُفر کیا اور اگر کہو کہ اُن کو مجبوُر اور کمزور کردیا گیا تھا تو تمہارے نبی ﷺ کا وصی اس سے زیادہ مجبوُر تھا ۔
۔
مُحمّد ﷺ کی تاسئ کی جب انہوں نے ھجرت کی :
اور جاتے ھوۓ مجھے اپنے بستر پر سُلا کر گۓ ۔۔
اب اگر تُم کہو کہ اُنہوں نے بلا کسی وجہ کے ھجرت کی تو تُم نے کُفر کیا اور اگر کہو کہ اُنکو مجبوُر کردیا گیا تھا تو تمہارے نبی ﷺ کا یہ وصی اُن سے زیادہ مجبوُر تھا ۔

کچھ اندازہ ھوُا ؟؟
کتنا مجبوُر کردیا گیا تھا میرا مولا علی علیہ السّلام ؟
کُچھ سمجھ میں آیا کہ کیوُں جو بدعتیں دین میں داخل ھوُئیں اُنکو بند نہیں کیا میرے مولا علی علیہ السّلام نے ؟؟
ان چھ انبیاؑ میں سے چار اولوالعزم پیغمبر ھیں ۔۔
جو جو وجوھات ان آیات میں ان سب کی اپنی اپنی قوم سے علیحدگی کی بنی وہ تمام وجوھات اکیلۓ میرے مولا علی علیہ السّلام کو روکے ھوۓ تھیں ۔۔
۔
اب ایک اور سرکار جناب امیر علیہ السّلام کا خطبہؑ سُنو ۔۔
اور یاد رکھنا ۔۔ کہ کیوں سرکار نے تلوار نہیں اُٹھائ اور بپہت کُچھ برداشت کیا ۔۔
چاھے وہ گلے میں رسّی ڈال کر حرامیوں کا میرے مولا کو کھینچنا ھو
چاھے وہ دروازے کو آگ لگانا ھو
چاھے وہ میری مخدومہؑ کونین سلام اللہ علیہا کا پہلوُ شکستہ کرنا ھو
چاھے وہ فدک کا حق غصب کرنا ھو
چاھے وہ خلافت کا حق چھیننا ھو
اس سب پر خاموشی کی سب سے بڑی وجہ ۔۔۔

حضرت علیؑ فرماتے ہیں کہ میں نے لوگوں سے یہ کہہ دیا تھا کہ دیکھو رسول اللہ کا انتقال ہو چکا ہے اور خلافت کے بارے میں مجھ سے کوئی نزاع نہ کرے کیوں کہ ہم ہی ا س کے وارث ہیں ۔لیکن قوم نے میرے کہنے کی پرواہ نہیں کی ۔
" خدا کی قسم اگر دین میں تفرقہ پڑ جانے اور عہد کفر کے پلٹ آنے کا اندیشہ نہ ہوتا تومیں ان کی ساری کاروائیاں پلٹ دیتا ۔"

" میں ہے کہ آنحضرت نے حضرت عائشہ سے فرمایا کہ ۔۔۔۔
" اے عائشہ ”لوَ لاَ حدَ ثَانِ قَومُک بالکَفرِ لَفَعلتُ “
ترجمہؑ
اگر تیری قوم تازی کفر سے مسلمان نہ ہوئی ہوتی تو میں اس کے ساتھ وہ کرتا جو کرنا چاہیے تھا۔
۔
اور اب مجھے یہ بتانے کی ضرورت تو ھے نہیں کہ " جنگ بدر سے خیبر و خندق تک " پورا عرب گواہ ھے کہ کس کی تلوار سینوں کو چیرتی رھی اور گردنوں کو کاٹتی رھی ؟؟
بڑے بڑے " بہادروں " کو پہاڑوں پر بکری کی طرح اچھلتے دیکھا ھے
بڑے بڑے " بہادروں " کو جو ھنٹر ھاتھ میں لیۓ گھوما کرتے تھے تاریخ نے کوئ ایک نام بھی محفوظ نہیں کیا جو انکے ھاتھوں قتل ھوا ھو کسی بھی جنگ میں ؟؟
( یہ چیلنج بھی ھے کہ دکھاؤ اگر کوئ نام مل جاۓ ؟ )
مکہّ و مدینہ کے بسنے والے نا تو عمرو بن عبدود کا مارے جانا بھولے تھے اور نا ھی خیبر کا دروازہ اکھاڑے جانا ۔۔
جنگ خندق میں عمرو بن عبدود نے جب گستاخی کی اور مولا علی علیہ السّلام کے چہرہ مبارک پر لعاب دھن پھینکا تو آپ علیہ السّلام اُس کی چھاتی سے نیچے اُتر آۓ جس پر وہ جو بہُت زیادہ " غصّیلہ " تھا وہ بے اختیار بولا بھی تھا ۔۔۔" یا رسول اللہ یہ دیکھیۓ علی علیہ السّلام نے کیا کیا ؟ اتنا اچھا موقع گنوا دیا ۔۔ اس پر تو قابوُ پالینا ھی بڑا کام تھا ۔۔ "
قتل عمرو بن عبدود کے بعد جب مولا علیہ السّلام سے پوچھا گیا تو آپ نے فرمایا ۔۔
اگر اس وقت میں اسے قتل کردیتا تو میرا ذاتی غصّہ شامل ھوجاتا
( جبکہ میں تو " یدّ اللہ " ھوں اسلیۓ لڑتا ھی صرف اللہ اور اسکے رسول اور اسکے دین کیلیۓ ھوں )
ھاں یہ ضرور پتا چل گیا تھا کہ " یہ محمّد وآل محمّد ﷺ اپنا حق چھن جانے پر نہیں بولتے لیکن اگر اسلام و دین پر کچھ بن جاۓ تو پھر یہ اُٹھ کھڑے ھوتے ھیں "
تو بس اُنہوں نے طے کرلیا کہ ۔۔۔
" کہ دین کی بنیادوں کو فی الحال چھیڑو نہیں اور ان کو چھوڑو نہیں "
چنانچہ جن " چڑی ماروں " کی ٹانگیں کانپتی تھیں مولا علی علیہ السّلام کو آتے دیکھ کر ۔۔
" انکی ھمّت اتنی بڑھ گئ کی گلے میں رسّی ڈال کر کھینچتے رھے "
۔
(3) حوالہؑ :
کتاب : تاریخ اعثم کوفی ۸۳ طبع بمبئی

" میں حضرت علیؑ کی وہ تقریر موجود ہے جو آپ نے خلافت عثمان کے موقع پر فرمائی ہے۔ ہم اس کا ترجمہ اعثم کوفی اردو طبع دہلی کے صفحہ۱۱۳ سے نقل کرتے ہیں۔۔۔۔۔۔۔۔
۔
" خدا ئے جلیل کی قسم ......
اگر محمد رسول اللہ ﷺ ہم سے عہد نہ لے لیتے اور ہم کو اس امر سے مطلع نہ کر چکے ہوتے جو ہونے والا تھا تو میں اپنا حق کبھی نہ چھوڑتا ۔ اوراپنا حق کسی شخص کو نہ لینے دیتا ۔ اپنے حق کے حاصل کرنے کے لیے اس قدر کوشش بلیغ کرتا کہ حصول مطلب سے پہلے معرض ہلاکت میں پڑنے کا بھی خیال نہ کرتا ۔ "
.
اب کچھ سمجھ میں آئ ؟؟
یہ وہ جواب ھیں جو مولا علی علیہ السّلام نے از خود ارشاد فرماۓ اور مجھے پورا یقین ھے کہ آپ میں سے اکثر نے یہ پڑھنا تو دور کی بات سُنے بھی نہیں ھونگے !!
اور اب باری ھے میرے تبصرے کی ۔۔۔
تو اب دل پر ھاتھ رکھو اور جواب سُنو ۔۔۔
ابوُ جہل کی جاھل اولادو ۔۔ !!

پہلے اور دوسرے سوال کا جواب :

اسلیۓ بند دوبارہ شروع نہیں کروایا کہ " جو پروانے اپنی شمع رسالت ﷺ کا جنازہ چھوڑ کر تین دن واپس نہیں آۓ وہ کیا یہ بات مانتے ؟؟ جنہوں نے نبی ﷺ کا لحاظ نہیں کیا وہ علی علیہ السّلام کا کیا کرتے ؟؟
۔
تیسرا سوال :

پہلی بات تو یہ کہ اس وقت تک واقعہؑ کربلا ھوا ھی کب تھا جاھل ؟؟
دوسری بات یہ کہ پہلا امام بارگاہ " بیت الحزن " کے نام سے شمع رسالت کے پروانوں نے " رسول اللہ ﷺ کی بیٹی کو بنا کر دیا تھا جنت البقیع میں " ۔۔۔
کیونکہ اس وقت بھی تمہارے باپ دادا کو رسول اللہ ﷺ کی بیٹی کا رونا ۔۔۔ پسند نہیں تھا ۔۔
جہاں تک بات ھے رونے کی ۔۔۔
تو کیا بھول گۓ کہ رونے کیلۓ جگہ کی قید نہیں ھوتی ؟؟
" کسی کو غار میں رونا آگیا تھا ۔۔ یاد نہیں کیا ؟ "
۔
چوتھا سوال :

مُتعہ کو جاری تو تب کرتے جب اُنہوں نے وہ بند کیا ھو ؟
اُن کے پیروکار تو " کسی کی بہن کے مُتعہ کرنے کی خبر کے بعد بند کرنے کے فیصلے کو اور فیصلہ کرنے والے کو مانتے ھی نہیں "
اسلیۓ مولا علی علیہ السّلام کے پیروکاروں میں وہ بمطابق حکم قرآن و رسول ﷺ جاری تھا اور ھے ۔
۔
پانچواں سوال :

باغ فِدک ۔۔
کو اسلیۓ واپس نہیں لیا مولا علی علیہ السّلام نے کیونکہ اس کی وارث مخدومہؑ عالیہ سیّدہ فاطمہؑ سلام اللہ علیہا تب دنیا سے پردہ کرچُکی تھیں ۔۔
اور ظاھر ھے جب دعویدار ھی نا ھو تو کس طرح واپس لیتے ؟؟
۔
یہ تو تھے تمہارے سوالوں کے جواب ۔۔۔ اب میرے کچھ سوال ھیں تمہارے انہی سوالوں کے جواب میں ۔۔
اگر واقعی حق پر ھو تو دو اسکا جواب ۔۔
میں بھی تو دیکھوں کہ " شیعہ نے تو چیلنج کا جواب دے دیا "
اب شیعہ کے چیلنج کا جواب کون دے گا ۔۔۔ !!
۔
سوال نمبر ایک :

رسوُل اللہ ﷺ کے جنازے میں " بڑے ستارے " کیوں نہیں تھے ؟
۔
سوال نمبر دو :

" الصّلوٰۃ خیراً من النوم " رسول اللہ ﷺ کے دور میں جزو اذان نہیں تھا نا ھی خلیفہؑ اؤّل کے دور میں تو پھر اس کو اذان کا جزو بنانے کی بدعت کیوں کیگئ ؟؟
۔
سوال نمبر تین :

نماز تراویح نا عہد رسالت ﷺ میں پڑھی گئ اور نا ھی خلیفہ اوّل کے دور میں ۔۔ تو پھر یہ بدعت کیوں اپنائ گئ ؟؟
۔
سوال نمبر چار :

قرآن نے کہا " نبی کی بیبیو گھروں میں قرار پکڑو "
تو پھر نبی کی جو بی بی گھر سے باھر نکلی اور صرف باھر نہیں نکلی بلکہ لشکر کی سربراہ بھی بن کر میدان میں آئ اس کے بارے میں کیا کہتے ھو ؟؟
اور اگر وہ ٹھیک تھا تو پھر آج عورت کی حکمرانی پر فتوے کیوں لگاتے ھو ؟
۔
سوال نمبر پانچ :

مُتعہ ۔۔۔ کو قرآن کی آئیت اور رسوُل اللہ ﷺ کی حدیث نے حلال کیا تھا
خلیفہؑ اوّل کے دور میں بھی حلال ھی تھا
پھر قرآن و حدیث کیخلاف اسکو بند کرکے زناؑ سے بچنے کا راستہ بند کرنے کا اختیار کس نے دیا تھا بند کرنے والے کو ؟؟
کیونکہ اسکے علاوہ اور کوئ طریقہ ھے ھی نہیں ایک شادی شدہ مرد کیلیۓ جو گھر سے دور ھو کہ وہ حرام کاری سے بچ سکے ۔
۔
سوال نمبر چھ :

حضرت عمر بن عبدالعزیز ( رح ) نے باغ فِدک
" اولاد فاطمہؑ سلام اللہ علیہا " کو یہ کہہ کر واپس کر دیا تھا کہ ۔۔۔۔۔
" یہ تمہارا حق تھا اور پہلے اس معاملے میں فیصلہ کرنے والے سے اجتہادی غلطی ھوئ " ۔۔
اب یہ بتاؤ کہ ان دونوں میں سے کون صحیح تھا ؟؟
خلیفہؑ اوّل یا پھر عمر بن عبدالعزیز ؟؟؟
۔
اب مجھے دیکھنا ھے کہ ان سوالوں کے کیا جواب دیتے ھو ۔۔
منتظر ھوں
