Islamic History
An Indecent Attempt to Tarnish the Image of the Companions of the Prophet
A critique of Arif Mohammad Khan’s “fallacious” arguments on Yazid’s succession and Karbala
By Maulana Nadeem-ul-Wajidee
Translated from Urdu by Raihan Nezami, NewAgeIslam.com

Before analyzing the point of view of the writer, I want to make clear that the Sahaba-e-Karam (May Allah Be Pleased with Them) are not ordinary beings of the Muslim world, but they, having decent virtues and spiritual characteristics belong to such a group of the Muslims that is compared by the Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) to the stars. Following any one of these persons can take us to “Nijat” salvation as they are the medium between the Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) and His “Ummah”. Without their assistance, neither the “Tafseer” of the Holy Quran-e-Kareem can be understood adequately nor the teachings and the “Sunnat” of the Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him).

Unfortunately, some groups in the “Ummat” are raising their voices and have made the Sahaba-e-Karam (May Allah be Pleased with them) the target of their repulsive condemnation in the name of research and criticism. Some are those who injudiciously criticize Hazrat Ali (May Allah be Pleased with him) and Hazrat Hussein bin Ali (May Allah be Pleased with him) in support of Hazrat Mua’wiya (May Allah be Pleased with him) and Yazeed bin Mua’wiya. Some are those who condemn Hazrat Mua’wiya (May Allah be Pleased with him) and Hazrat Mugheera bin Sho’ba (May Allah be Pleased with him) in favour of Hazrat Hussein (May Allah be Pleased with him). As a fact, all the Sahaba-e-Karam (May Allah be Pleased with them) are without any doubt honourable and respectable, no one can deny their distinct position and great significance in Islam that is well-approved by the Holy Quran-e-Kareem and the Hadeeth Shareef of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).
