Re: KARABALA & IMAM RAZA[AS],
you are trying to smear the name of the sahabi-e-Rasool suleiman b surad al khuzai radiallahanhu and the tawwabun leaders who were martyred at ayn al warda.But their great exploits are recorded in all historical works and rijal works.If nothing else read about the compliments paid to them by abdullah b yazid radiallahanhu
rest of this article is a rejection of 12er exaggerated beliefs regarding nature of karbala.Yes many of Ali's former supporters deserted hussain but its childish to lump them all togather
do u know that shibath b rabie who u call shia ne ali here was at the time of jamal supporter of ayesha ? and a opponent of zayd b suhan ( a sahabi who fought and died for Ali at jamal) this same shibath was a khariji, shia ,uthmani and supporter of ibn zubair at different times.
leaders or ashraf of kufa had this treacherous character many of them switched sides repeatedly from uthman to Ali to muawiyah to ibn zubair ....if u take this further lets blame the people of Makkah/medina too cuz they betrayed ibn zubair and left him to be crucified by hajjaj
taking a few names out of context to blame the kufans or karbala is a clever syrian ploy but in the bigger context it seems immature, if karbala was due to kufans acting alone how do u explain the sack of medina by a syrian army and atrocities there far greater than at karbala
let me clarify i dont in anyway endorse the bidaati beliefs of 12ers but this character assasination of kufans many of them who had nothing to do with karabala tragedy is a conspiracy to discredit the city of kufa
if u want to know the bad apples amongst the ashraf or tribal elders of kufa who participated in karbala massacre go after them individually DONT blame the kufans collectively

I must make it clear that shia historians admit that incident of karbala was a political and khilafate related confrontation
