Re: Musharraf’s miscalculation
Yazid didnt invite Hazrat Hussain r.a, Shia of Kufa did. They betrayed him, 17000 letters from them and those cowards went into their houses and others joined the army of ibn Ziad.
The man who killed Sayyiduna Hussain (i.e. gave the death-blow) was a man by the name of Shimr bin Thil-Jawshan and he was a Shia, as recorded in both Sunni and Shia books. Shimr was part of the Shia, and then he betrayed Sayyiduna Hussain and joined Yazid’s men, giving Sayyiduna Hussain the death-blow.
To provide a solid proof of this fact (i.e. that Shimr was a Shia), we refer to the esteemed and classical Shia scholar, Al-Qummi. Al-Qummi, author of the famous book “Mafaatihul-Jinaan”, writes in his book: “I say, Shimr was in the forces of Ameer al-Mu’mineen on the Day of Siffin.” (Al-Qummi, “Safinatun-Najaat”, vol.4, p. 492, Chapter Sheen Followed by Meem)
Now if you want I can show you the scan of the book?
Now stick to the topic please.
A great topic to discuss? but still makes no link to how musharraf has become a yazeed? Wouldn’t the lal masjid brigade be the yazidis as they were spreading fitna and declared themselves “et all” when mainstream ulema didn’t believe in their methods?
