  • Q Why do the Shias indulge in the business of spreading false allegations and character assassination of a Sahaba [Companion of the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.a.)]? Even if he has done some wrong as they say, we are not his judge. Allah (s.w.t.) will decide on the Day of Judgment and then the Shias will be caught red-handed due to their outrageous campaign. A person who has once seen the glorious face of Holy Prophet (s.a.w.a.) - Hellfire will be haraam on him or her. But time and again the Shia insults the Sahaba of Holy Prophet (s.a.w.a.). You Shias can do no harm to him and his high position, even if you all cry till Qayamah. May Allah guide you all to the path of righteousness and enable you to learn about “Ikramul Mumineen”, both of the past and that of the present. I feel pity for this mentality of extreme narrow-mindedness.
