@Nussairee

You said according to Shia only 3 sahaba remained Muslim after the prophet?! where on earth (internet?) are you getting this information from?

this is based on one of the many narrations in your own books, degrading the companions in general

secondly do you consider musanaf ibn abi shayba a sunni book a authentic source ?

u accuse me of simply quoting from internet which if i do but always mention the source ]
while u urself are copy pasting from websites

According to some traditions Ali ibn abi Talib, Abbas ibn Abd al Muttalib, Abu Sufyan ibn Harith and Abdullah ibn Masud were the only four persons who stayed with the Holy Prophet. Some say there were ten persons who did not run away. Ali stood in front of the Holy Prophet and stopped every attack made by the enemy to slay him. The Holy Prophet called those who were deserting to come back. Some of them returned and joined Ali to launch a counter attack on the enemy. When Ali killed Abu Jarul, the standard bearer of the enemy army, a general retreat began to take place among the invaders, which soon turned into chaos and then flight. In this way a most crushing defeat was inflicted on the enemy.
After the battle, on the instructions of the Holy Prophet, the spoils of war taken by the Muslims, were returned to those who embraced Islam. Some refused to comply with his orders. In such cases the Holy Prophet compensated them. When one companion protested that the Holy Prophet had not done justice in the matter of distributing the spoils of war, some people wanted to kill him, but the Holy Prophet stopped them and said: “Wait. Such people, on their own, one day will go out of the true faith, then the best of men among you will kill him.” And that man was killed by Ali in the battle of Nahrawan.
