Did Muawiyah Killed Muhammad ibn Abubakar and Hassan ?

[Abubakar]

Salam
-How authentic is it that Muawiyah killed Mohammed ibn Abubakar and burnt his body on a horse?

-Also Did muawiyah really bribed Hassan's wife to poison him(Hassan Ibn Ali) ?

I believe  ibn Hajar has a report on it.

-Also Did muawiyah really bribed Hassan's wife to poison him(Hassan Ibn Ali) ?

This is is tough one since most Sunni scholars try to blame Yazid for it.

1- Mu`awiyah himself didn't do it, it could be that one of his commanders did it assuming this is true (I recall a donkey and then it was burned?)

2- This is nothing more than a rumor, not verified historical fact so it's dismissed.

Unless Rationalist has changed his opinion, I don't think you should take anything related to this issue from someone who believes Hasan ra gave up khilafah to a kafir.

Just curious, akhi.

I don't differ from the Khawarij, Zaidi, 12ers, Mutazilla and the other Shia sects on Muawiyah.

I wonder why those who believe muawiyah RA was a kafir never ask this simple question

If muawiyah ra was a kafir, why on earth hasan ra pledged allegiance to him and also told him to rule according to quran & sunnah?

I never received a satisfactory answer to that question.

If you live outside a Muslim country your leader is a kaffir. How is this any different? Likewise, Imam Hassan's (as) father was betrayed in the arbitration, so he didn't accept the bayah of the treacherous people of Kufa to continue leading. His brother Imam Hussain (as) on the other hand was different from Imam Hassan (as). Also, unlike the 12er Shia sect, I do not believe the Imam's ijitihad is equal to the status of Wahi.

[Hadrami]

If you live outside a Muslim country your leader is a kaffir. How is this any different?

Let me tell you 3 main differences:

- were you the leader of muslim nation?
- did you leave your post and then hand over it to your kafir leader?
- did you tell your kafir leader that he has to rule by quran & sunnah?

Realise the differences now?

Ok if you go by your logic, is Yazid a kaffir ?

[Hani]

Fear Allah people, Takfir is not a small thing. I'd rather call a Muslim "Great sinner" and curse him then to declare him a disbeliever.

[Optimus Prime]

Was Firawn a disbeliever?

dont be like a 12er who always jumps around. Did you or did you not tell your kafir leader to rule by quran & sunnah as hasan ra told muawiyah ra?

everytime a shia or someone else try to slander a companion, they end up ridiculing ahlulbait ra.

so either hasan ra knew that muawiya ra was a kafir and yet still told him to rule by quran & sunnah (irrational)
OR
muawiyah ra was told to do that because he wasnt a kafir but a muslim (rational)

Now are you rationalist or irrationalist?

[Hadrami]

Was Firawn a disbeliever?

A shia once used firaun excuse, but he misses the fact that Hasan ra with his big army handed over the muslim nation and then promise to obey muawiyah ra (remember hasan ra also pledged his allegiance), BUT musa as with his 1 man army (harun as) came to firaun's palace and told him to believe in Allah SWT.

Then i asked, before you expect someone to rule islamically, shouldn't you tell them to be a muslim first? After that we went on a round the circle ride

Alaikum Salam,  don't know the first one, as for the second there is sound report that Hasan been poisoned, but it also says that even Hasan himself didn't know the killer.

To blame anybody for this murder, we need to have sound report with unbroken chain from author of the book till the eye witness of incident where Yazid or Muawiyah ordered to kill Hasan.

[Ibn Yahya]

Mu'awiyah certainly was a flawed individual even though at heart I honestly he ease good man and Rasul Allah certainly had love for him because he gave Du'a for him and gave him land. So Rasul Allah clearly saw good in him. And to be honest looking at his actions and character in the books of history confirm that. People overlook how much this Ummah, Sunni and non-Sunni alike has to thank Mu'awiyah for. Even to say he was a Dhalim is a stretch let alone a Kafir.

Asalamualaikum respected brother.

I hope you don't mind me saying, but saying "he was a flawed individual" is downright disrespectful and uncalled for in my opinion. Fear Allah, akhi, and seek repentance. When addressing any of the companions we must do so with decorum and utmost humility.

There is truth to what you're saying, and I fully realise you think of very highly of him as we all should, but it's a matter of principle and dignity of the Sahaba.

I meant no disrespect to Mu'awiyah. And Insha Allah I will choose my words more carefully next time.
