    You are absolutely right.
    No one is being judgemental here but since you asked, I gave you my honest opinion.
    For one thing, in the opening post, you did not give the reference of the hadith.
    Most people give the name of the book, the narrator, page number etc. when they quote a hadith
    And which Imam does the hadith come from?
    But you did not even give a translation for people who don't understand Arabic.
    I don't think it is fair that you provide incomplete information and yet you expect a perfect answer.
    Anyway, I don't  think anyone in this site is so knowledgeable to have command over exception cases, as this seems to be.
    My sincere advice to you is to use one of the question / answer services available in the Internet to lob your question to a senior scholar. 
    And when you have the answer, please get back to us with the details and the reference.
    Thanks and best wishes

    To begin with, a Muslim should not allow himself to be addicted to something that is forbidden.
    And I am pretty sure that looking at beautiful women and enjoying it is simply not allowed.

    baqar got a reaction from Ashvazdanghe in Haram for Shias to form a government?   
    The first problem with the OP is that the hadithes cannot be seen to be fully quoted unless
    (a) it is stated whose words they are and
    (b) the names of the narrators are mentioned.
    None of the quoted hadiths states whose words they are or who the narrator is.
    Also, all Shia scholars accept that unlike the six main hadith books of the Sunnis, there is no Shia book of hadith that is entirely true.
    And finall, almost every hadith has a specific context and we cannot take the words on their face value.
    Rather, we need to ask a Marja for its true meaning.

    Brother, you don't need to ask anyone.
    Because in the present world, it is very difficult to get access to the most knowledgeable men.
    All you need to do is to observe the way our Holy Prophet ((صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم)) and our Holy Imam (عليه السلام) dealt with the problems of life.
    They were all the best of people and the best exemplars.

    "I followed him wherever he went like a baby camel following its mother."
    What better way to learn how to copy the Prophet (pbuhf) than by learning from Ali ibn Abi Talib ((عليه السلام))?
     
    It's ok though, some prefer learning about the Prophet (pbuhf) from his enemies and some hypocrites.

    Just one undeniable clue from the Qur'an:   سَأَلَ سَائِلٌ بِعَذَابٍ وَاقِعٍ {1} [Shakir 70:1] One demanding, demanded the chastisement which must befall
     
    [Pooya/Ali Commentary 70:1]
    Abu Ishaq Thalabi, in Tafsir al Kabir, while commenting on al Ma-arij has recorded from two authentic sources the tradition that on the day of Ghadir Khum the Holy Prophet summoned the people and said: "Ali is the mawla of whom I am mawla" (see commentary of Ma-idah: 67). The news quickly spread over all urban and rural areas. When Harith ibn Numan al-Fahri came to know of it he rode his she-camel and came to Madina to see the Holy Prophet. When he reached his destination he made the she-camel sit, alighted from it, approached the Holy Prophet and said:
    "You commanded us to testify that there is no God but Allah and that you are the messenger of Allah. We obeyed you. You ordered us to say prayers five times a day and we obeyed. You directed us to pay zakat and we obeyed. You ordered us to observe fasts during Ramadan and we obeyed. Then you commanded us to perform pilgrimage to kabah and we obeyed. But you are not satisfied with all this and you raised your cousin by the hand and imposed him upon us as our master by saying: 'Ali is the mawla of whom I am mawla' Is this imposition from you or from Allah?"
    The Holy Prophet said:
    "By Allah who is the only God, this is from Allah, the mighty, the glorious."
    On hearing this Harith turned back and proceeded towards his she-camel saying:
    "O Allah, if what Muhammad says is true then fling on us a stone from the sky and make us suffer severe pain and torture."
    He had not yet reached his she-camel when a stone came at him and struck him on his head, penetrated into his body and passed out through his anus leaving him dead. It was on this occasion that Allah revealed these verses of al Ma-arij.
    This is a literal translation of the tradition recorded by Thalabi. Many eminent Muslim traditionists have copied this tradition from Thalabi, e.g., Shablanji in his book Nur al Absar on page 11; it is also mentioned in Sirat al Halabiyah, vol. 2, page 214; and Mustadrak, vol. 2, page 502.

    If there are Sunnis who curse him, they are much too few to be compared with the vast majority who 
    either praise him  or prefer to have no opinion in the matter.

    That is fine.
    Just because we do not know the Imam's reason for naming his son Abu Bakr does not mean we can assume that he named him after the first caliph.
    All we can say is that we do not know but to make unfounded assumptions is not quite right either.

    Well brother, as I said before, Sheikhs are also all types.
    And even the highest scholars sometimes differ in their views.
    As for Bilal, my understanding is that he had a very high place in the eyes of the Prophet ((صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم)).
    And in the eyes of the Prophet's family as well.
    Some of the Companions were jealous of the high opinion the Prophet ((صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم)) had of him and they wanted Bilal out.
    But the Prophet ((صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم)) overruled them. 
    That again shows that the Prophet ((صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم)) truly liked him.
