Re: Peace Treaty between Hazrat Hasan and Hazrat Muavia Bin ibi Sufiyan
You can look at it from a religious point of view and then there is no room for discussion. Or you can look at it from a purely rational point of view and learn some lessons.
Imam Hassan ra probably did a good assessment of his camp which was less likely to win a battle, however, at the same time this treaty allowed ummayyyads to consolidate their rule over a period of 20 years. And Alawite dynasty wilingly dismantled their army and could not gather an army of that size for next several centuries.
