کتنی بار تو انسانیت کو مارے گا بتا؟ کب تک تو کائینات کو رلائے گا بتا؟ کعبة سے تو کرارؑ کو کرپایا نہ ختم کب تک تو دیواروں سے مٹائے گا بتا؟ نامِ حق سے باطل تیرا کام ہے منافق کب تک تو حق کو جھٹلائے گا بتا؟ تیری سیاہ روح، نہ کوئلہ، ہے جہنم کا ایندھن کب تک تو جلتے در سے منہ موڑے کا بتا؟ آتا ہے بقية اللّٰهؑ اور دَورِ عدل و انصاف کب تک تو اپنے انجام سے بھاگے گا بتا؟ تو نے بہایا نہ صرف آب تو نے بہایا ہے لہو کب تک تو منتظر کو اس سے لکھوائے گا بتا؟

اے ظالموں لعنت صرف مجھ سے ہی نہیں ماں باپ سے نہیں صرف عزیر سے نہیں جن پر کرب و بلا لائے، کل کائنات سے بے شمار کہ خالق نے خود کہا یہ ہے سزائے ظالمین

کتنوں کو تم اس فانی جہاں میں سختیاں دو گے؟ کتنوں کو تم اس زندگی سے جلد جدا کرو گے؟ اے ظالموں سنو، تمہارے تو وارث بھی نہیں مظلوم کے وارثوں کو تم تو جانتے تک بھی نہیں اگر جان لو انہیں تو تم کچھ نہ سہہ سکو گے ہاں اب منتظر سے دُور ہمارا دَور بھی نہیں

Salamun alaikum, Does anybody know the most authentic version of why Zayd ibn Ali (AS) was deserted by some of his alleged followers in Kufa? I read many contradictory things about his desertion including: i.) For his refusal to do tabarra of Abu Bakr and Umar, as neither did his parents etc Sunni/Zaydi view ii.) That he studied under Wasil ibn Ata the Mutzailite and did not do tabarra to attract a greater following, but this ended up working against him (there's even a hadith allegedly by Imam Baqir [AS] criticized Zayd for obtaining knowledge from someone like Wasil). Wasil or Mutazilism allegedly influenced Zayd [AS] into accepting Abu Bakr and Umar's caliphates as legitimate, albeit less superior compared to Ali's [AS]. Sunni/Shia view iii.) Zayd [AS] was deserted by people who didn't do enough tabarra of Abu Bakr and Umar so Zayd [AS] told them to get "cut off/out" (batara) which is how they got their name "Batriyyah" Thus the remaining uprisers were loyal to the cause of the illegitimacy and tabarra of the above. Shi'i/Zaydi. - Imami Shia view I was wondering if anyone knew the official Imami line that is taught these days on what happened and whether some share the Sunni version, it wouldn't surprise me given the mentality of some Shia's. But likewise it would not surprise me if this was propaganda to support the Sunni line that Imams [AS] were supportive and accepting of the 3 Caliphs... Thanks in advance

Assalamu alaikum Some say that the fatwa was led without the permission of Ayatollah Sayed Ali Sistani (ha) and then removed after finding it out. Where can I find the fatwa again in order to see if it's still there?

AA Brothers & Sisters, I wanted to open a thread to learn more about how to implement Tabarra based upon Hadith from the Prophet (s.a.w.a), Ahlul Bayt (a.s.) and the Imams (a.s.). We seem to have a difference of opinion within our community regarding how to implement it. Some of our most senior scholars have requested/required the community to refrain from condemning the first 3 Caliph's and the Lady's Aisha & Hafsa in public. Obviously, privately we can continue through Ziarat's, etc..... and/or bring forward Hadith and Historical facts about their behavior in academic discussions amongst ourselves as well with Al-Sunna. While others (some scholars and momineen) believe that is absolutely a requirement to publically disassociate ourselves from them regardless of any consequences and that the former position is incorrect. Keeping emotion out of the discussion, relying on reliable Hadith and History how did the Imams (a.s.) implement this themselves in their own lives and practice. Did they openly disassociate themselves from them in public; did they keep it private or limit it to the recitation of Dua and Ziarat? Can request that my more learned brothers & sisters in Hadith & Jurisprudence provide some insight? Thank You & Was salaam
