Re: Ghadeer khum sermon and Ummah divide
It is not just the ayyat, but the sermon, the ayat, reaction of people and hadrat Ali put all together gives a very compelling argument. The disagreement is on how we put a spin on Mawla, it seems very illogical to have an important ayat to just claim Hadrat Ali is a friend of Muslims, wasn’t that just obvious and wouldn’t have necessitated an ayat. Hadrat Ali, people there and his friends all understood it to be the leader.
