Re: Please Help: Need this book

thank you very much ...unfortunatley all i know that it was written some time in 50s or 60s and maududi's book was a rebuttel to it .....there might be some bookstores in karachi who have a copy ...interestingly it is not [as far as i know] on the haqchaaryaar website despite its obvious propoganda value there

Re: Please Help: Need this book

any member who has a copy I will be interested in a photocopy I will pay all copies and postage ......

Re: Please Help: Need this book

n wat about the book i posted about.

see this author (if we change its spelling of the word Ahmed to Ahmad) have 2 books in my uni library.

n this book "Haqiqat-i khilafat o mulukiyat" seem more close to material u r looking for which is as u can see also published during 60z in KHI.

so if its not this one then i think u do have some different spellings. do make sure its spelling is right one.

Re: Please Help: Need this book

alright I appreciate ur interest so you think the name is "haqiqat-i-khilafat-o-malookiat" have u seen it by this title?

I have only have access to state libraries and most of them have a modest urdu/arabic section.....little chance of finding it there

Re: Please Help: Need this book

i put it on hold...let see when i gonna get it.

but since there is some sort of confusion between the book names...so would u like me to look for something specific..and do u want any specific chapters to be scanned?

Re: Please Help: Need this book

thanks for digging this out , i just got a similar book by brother Mostar95 in mail

dont send it now, i will tell u when to send it

i am looking specifically for the part where the author says or implys that Ali planned the killing of uthman

Re: Please Help: Need this book

haqaiq-e-khilafat-o-malookiyaat seems to be just an attack on the book "khilafat-o-malookiyat" by abu aala maududi and also an attack on the person of maududi....

such books that r written only for confrontational purposes shud always be avoided as they r meant only and only to spread hatred, nothing beneficial in them....

Every tree is know , by the fruit it give.

Re: Please Help: Need this book

^ man !!...provoking u is like shooting fish in a barrel ....i am getting tired of this sport

I agree totally, but all such literature needs to be read and dissected so that it never can be used to spread propoganda ...simply ignoring it we will play right into the hands of these authors who always claim to represent a very revisionist version of history.

I will elaborate a bit more as this is important, every now and then extremists from both sides come up with outrageous claims and the orthodox /mainstream authorities ignore them for a while instead of countering them right away the result is that these beliefs are not effectively countered and become a part of mainstream.
Amongst shias same thing happened with additions to azan and ritual cursing of the shaikhyan which became popular around time of the safavids.Even though before that these things were considered extremists beliefs even by shia ulema.
Same thing unfortunately is happening in sunnis with literature of nawasib being popularized under the pretence of puritin islam.Where ALi & his sons/supporters are presented in a very negative light and legitamacy of his caliphate is being questioned.

Re: Please Help: Need this book

Shah Jee put a great link , many misconceptions will eradicate. not went through whole, Page no. 44 is interesting about Abuzar Ghaffari(ra) that his teachings could not be applied practically and against the Quran and Sunnah. So Muavia(ra) rightly sent him to Usman("ra) from Syria . This is the major false blame put on Usman(ra) for degrading Abuzar(ra) but writer put it well.

Another is muavia(ra) himself used to tabbara on ali(ra) , most of sunnis including myself beieve that muavia(ra) did not himself do that. Allah knows best. He is sahabi, so i cannot dare to say anything more. Allah is the best Judge.

More points will evolve when go through whole stuff

thanks for the link again
regards

one more thing , page 124 (the written on text of urdu book) , first 5 lines. Shah Ismail Shaheed said..all those shias who do Tabbara on sahabs, they follow Muavia(ra) and all those sunnis who dont do tabbarra of anybody , follow Ali(ra) , ceratainly Nasibi dont come in line as they do tabbarra of Ali(ra)

Page 144-136 : It was Ziyad and Marvan who used to give shameful tabbara with dirty words on Ali(ra) but Mughira(ra) and Muavia(ra) never went to that extent and Ali(ra) in reply never did any Tabbarra on muavia(ra) except at one time said some harsh words but never did any Tabbara

Re: Please Help: Need this book

Not want to start usual shia sunni thread , some points are noteworthy

  • Muavia( ra) seems to be doing Baghawat against the elected caliph Ali(ra), killed many of his followers , some governors , looted property and ummah's consensus over that Ali(ra) was on haq , thast quite true, few scholars take it as Ijtihaadi mistake, but writer mentions some incidents about Dia'at of non muslim to muslim, cursing Ali(ra), Khutba while sitting as Biddat started by Muavia(ra) so its not right to take Muavia(ra) as Mujjtahid to accept his ijtihadi mistake but some scholars also consider the murderers of usman(ra) in Ali(ra) army without any punishment but Ummah's consensus is that he was neither involve nor supporter of this martyrdom , he wanted Qasaas when his caliphate established but at Jamal, the murderers of Usman at night of Jamal , turned the table

  • Killed Hujr bin Adi(ra) who used to raise voice against Ali(ra) in Kufa and Ziyaad caught him. One thing needs clarification, after Hassan Muavia peace pact, raisng voive against Muavia(ra) is questionable as now he was , by any mean, ruler of the islamic world. in Kufa people used to gather at his home but when trial came only few people left with him, as usual you can expect from Ahle Kufa !

  • There was no strict justice over Governors, in Egypt the Aamil was made just that he forced Abdullah ibne Umr bin Ala's, a very pious sahabi, to forcefully give his hand in muavia(ra) hand

  • Aisha(ra) anger over Hujr(ra) mrtyrdoma nd Ibne Umar(ra) weeping on street on hearing his death

  • Marvan's shameless character in tabarra over Ali(ra) and even cursing Hassan(ra) as donkey(Naozobillah)

  • Muavia(ra) very wrong decision of appointing Yazeed which bad character was visible to everyone, with plea to unite muslims after his death , though they divided

*Maulana Maududi praising some virtues of Muavia(ra) in last chapter , some narrations about his depression about few crimes he did against Ali(ra) and Hujr(ra)

Thats just points, summary type, not shia sunni fighting thread. Both sides have 1400 years claims, battles, arguments, go to ansar or answering ansar, tons of materials.Allah is the best Judge, quoting Hassan Basri , the things upon which Sahabas agree, we accept that and upon which they differ, we remain silent as we were not present at time so cannot be responsible for anything happened at that time.
