INTRODUCTION "Those who hate the Sahaabah, hate them because (in reality) they hate me." It is a Shi'i contention that the great Sahaabah, especially Hadhrat Abu Bakr, Umar, Uthmaan, etc. (Radiallahu Anhum) did not understand the teachings of Nabi-e-Kareern (sallallahu alayhi wasallam). They further shamelessly and blasphemously assert that these illustrious Khulafa Raashideen are usurpers, frauds, fabricators of ahadith and wholly incompetent in Deeni matters. Indeed, the La'nat of Allah Ta'ala must be on such slanderers as the Shi'i clergy who make such wicked assertions. Inspite of their slander being shocking and despicable in the extreme, it is not surprising, since they are the worst fabricators and frauds peddling their nafsaani opinions in the name of Islam and attributing it to Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam). They have accused the Sahaabah of being involved in conspiracies to eliminate Islam and supplant it with the Arab tribal systems of the time of jaahiliyyah. The blasphemous drivel which clutters their books and preachings exhibits their wickedness and detestation for the Islam of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam). Inspite of the open venom which the Shiahs spit against the Sahaabah, the ignorant supporters of the Shiahs among the Ahle Sunnah expect the Ulama to raise slogans of brotherhood and to fabricate a common basis and a common platform of fraternity with the haters of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam's) Companions. They expect the Ummah of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) to unite with those whose very religion is reared on hatred for the Sahaabah. No, that can never come to pass. The enemies of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam's) Sahaabah can never be the friends and the brothers of the Ahle Sunnah. There is no apologetism in our capital for such Ventures. We know of no diplomacy and recognize no expediency for such vile brotherhood. If unity and brotherhood with all and sundry are of such importance, let the supporters of the Shi'i clergy advocate unity and brotherhood with shaitaan and Qaadianism as well. We unequivocally maintain that those (the Shiahs) who claim that Hadhrat Zubair, Talha and Aishah (Radiallahu Anhum) are jahannami (inmates of the fire) are our enemies. In fact, they Themselves are jahannami. Only those standing in line to be condemned to Jahannam can be so shameless as to say that these illustrious Sahaabah among the Ash'arah Mubashsharah and the beloved wife of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) are jahannami. May Allah Ta'ala save us from uttering such kufr. Muslims should now realize that it is haraam to support in any way the Shiahs. Support for Khomeini and the Shi'i clergy is support offered to the enemies of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam). Shi'ism falls within the purview of the following statements of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam): "My Ummah will be split into 73 sects. Of these, all but one, will be in the Fire." (Tirmizi)What does the intelligence and lmaan of Muslims direct and
conclude? Does the Imaan of a Mu'min opine that the Shiahs are in the Naaji (that which will be saved) group or the
Sahaabah? Will the Sahaabah be in the one sect which will go to Jannat or in the 72 sects
condemned to hell? Will the Shiahs be dispatched to Jannat and Hadhrat Aishah, Zubair,
Talha, Abu Bakr, Umar and Uthmaan (Radiallahu Anhum) to Jahannum as the Shi'i clergy
asserts? What does your Imaan tell you? Who will be in Jahannum? The beloved wives and
Sahabah of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) or the Shi'i clergy. Most certainly, Allah was well pleased with the Mu'mineen (i.e. the Sahabah) when they took the oath of allegiance to you (0 Muhammad!) under the tree... (Surah Fath) "And the early ones, the first one among the Muhajireen and Ansar and those who follow them (the Muhajireen and Ansar) in virtue, Allah is well pleased with them and they are well pleased with Him. Allah has prepared for them gardens beneath which flow rivers; therein will they dwell forever. Indeed, that is the great victory. " (SurahTaubah) This is what the Qur'an says regarding the Sahabah, but the Shiah priests brand the Muhajireen and Ansar as kafir, murtad and munafiq! Nauthubillah!
"Fear Allah! Fear Allah regarding my Sahabah. Thus, whoever loves them, does so because of my love; whoever hates them, does so because of my hatred." It is thus abundantly clear that Khomeini cherishes a dislike, an aversion, a hatred for the Sahabah because of his hatred for Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam). The closer a Sahaabi was to Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam), the viler the abuse and the greater the enmity the Shiahs demonstrate for him. The noble Sahabah (Radiallahu Anhum) are the foundation and the pivots of Islam. The entire basis and superstructure of Islam have been magnificently raised on the teachings, explanations and expositions of the Sahabah (Radiallahu Anhum). The Qur'an Majeed itself has been authentically and authoritatively transmitted to the Ummah down the centuries in the form presented by the illustrious Sahabah - by Abu Bakr, Umar and Uthmaan (Radiallahu Anhum), the prime targets of Shi'i and Khomeini vituperation.
(Kitabur Raudhah, Page 115) In the same book, on the same page appears the following: "Verily. these two elders (Abu Bakr and Umar) departed from this world without having made taubah for what they had perpetrated against Ameerul Mumineen Alayhis Salaam. In fact, they did not even think of us (of their wrongs against Hadhrat Ali). Therefore, the la'nat of Allah, the Malaikah and of mankind be on them." In the Shiah book, Rijal Kashi, Hadhrat Abu Bakr and Hadhrat Umar (Radiallahu Anhuma) are denigrated in the following narration attributed to Imam Baqir: "Whatever murder is committed in Islam, whatever unlawful wealth is earned and whatever adultery is committed until the appearance of our Imam Mahdi - the sin of all this is on the necks of the two (i.e. Abu Bakr and Umar).
"Huziifah Bin Yaman narrates: Once on the 9th of Rabiul Awwal I went to Rasulullah. I saw Ameerul Mu'mineen Ali Murtaza, Imam Hasan and Imam Husain also there. All were busy eating. Rasulullah smiling in great happiness said to Hasan and Husain: 'Sons, today is the day on which Allah will destroy your enemy and the enemy of your grandfather, and Allah will accept the curse of your mother (Fatimah). Eat sons, eat I Today is the day that Allah accepts the deeds of your Shiah (partisans), and beloved. Eat sons, eat! Today is the day when the power of your enemy and the enemy of your grandfather will be broken and annihilated in the dust. Eat sons, eat! Today is the day when Fir'on to my Ahle Bait, the one who will oppress and persecute them and who will usurp their rights, will be destroyed." Huzaifah said: I exclaimed: 'O Rasulullah! Will there be such an evil person in your Ummah, who will perpetrate such villainy?'
'It has already been decreed in My Eternal Knowledge that the usurping Munafiqs will persecute you and your family. They will inflict many hardships on you and your family. O Muhammad! Ali has been awarded your rank because of these (impending) hardships which will be perpetrated on him by the usurper of his rights and the Fir'on of this Ummah. I have commanded the angels of the seven heavens to rejoice and celebrate Eid on the day he (i.e. Hadhrat Umar) is killed - this is for the sake of the partisans and lovers of the Ahle Bait. I have commanded the recording Angels to cease recording the sins of My servants for three days from that day. This is in honor of that day (on which Hadhrat Umar will be murdered). O Muhammad! Three days grace and permission in general to commit sins have been given in your honor and in honor of your appointee (Ali) ... Every year on this day, will I free from Jahannam thousands of your Shiahs.' Huzaifah says: 'After Rasulullah said this, he arose and left the room and went to the house of Umme Salmah. After having heard this talk of Rasulullah I was convinced of Umar's kufr. There remained no doubt in this. Finally, after the demise of Rasulullah, I witnessed the fitnah which he (Umar) created. He exhibited the kufr which was concealed in him. He reneged from Islam and usurped the Imamate and Khilafate. To achieve this end he adopted the most shameless methods. He altered the Qur'an and burnt the holy house of Rasulullah. He pleased the Jews, Christians and the Magians and displeased Fatimah and the entire Ahle Bait, and he conspired to have Ameerul Mu'meen (i.e. Hadhrat Ali) murdered. He made haram what Allah had made halal and legalized what Allah had made unlawful. He slammed the door against the face and stomach of Fatimah Alayhis Salaam. Huzaifah then said: 'Finally Allah Ta'ala accepted the curses of His Holy Nabi and his daughter in regard to this Munafiq (i.e. Hadhrat Umar) and had him killed at the hands, of his killer (Abu Lu'lu' Irani). May there be the Rahmat (Mercy) of Allah on his (Umar's) killer." These are the abominable teachings of Shi'ism regarding the illustrious Ameerul Mu'mineen. Hadhrat Umar Ibn Khattab (Radiallahu Anhu) about whom Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said: "If there had to be a Nabi after me, it would have been Umar. "Boldly and unscrupulously he (i.e. Hadhrat Abu Bakr) and his successor (i.e. Hadhrat Umar), each in turn, pillaged and plundered the wealth of the community leaving the state in such sadly injured condition that the passage of time was increasing the intensity of the injury,.. But, it was carried on under the guise of law and order and many unacceptable excuses were offered to justify these irreligious and ungodly arrogation's and many more will be repeated in the future. " The Shi'i priest Muhammad Baqir Sadr writes about the Sahabah in general and Hadhrat Umar (Radiallahu Anhu) in particular: "... we find that it is necessary to accept the existence of a large trend, from the very lifetime of the Prophet, who inclined towards proposing the use of Ijtihad and circumstantial considerations in determining their interests, above strict adherence to the religious texts. " "This trend was represented by a daring group of important Companions like, Umar bin-al-Khattab, who disputed with the Messenger and made judgements contradicting the text in many subjects, believing that he had the right to do so." The type of 'Ijtihad' which the Shiahs attribute to Hadhrat Umar (Radiallahu Anhu), in particular, and to other Sahaabah, in general, is described in the following statement of Baqir Sadr: "...we mean by 'ijtihad' the making of judgements in contradiction to the text or acceptance of such a judgement." A king who pillages and plunders the wealth of a nation is supposed to lead a life of luxury-living in palatial mansions and palaces; relaxing in gardens and orchards; adorning himself in garments of silk, velvet and brocade; indulging in sumptuous feasts and extravagance. But history bears loud testimony to the austere, simple, in fact, life of extreme poverty led by our Ameerul Mu'mineen, Sayyidina Umar Farooq (Radiallahu Anhu). A dozen patches adorned his kurtah of coarse cloth. The frugality and austerity of Hadhrat Umar (Radiallahu Anhu) have already attained proverbial significance. The most ardent Sunni sympathizer of Khomeini will not fail in acknowledging this glaring historical fact. Yet the Shi'i priests accuse a Saint of such high, faultless and sterling attributes of having pillaged and plundered the wealth of the Ummah! HaqquI Yaqeen is another very highly placed book of Shi'i theology. The author of Haqqul Yaqeen is the same Mullah Baqir Majlisi, author of Zadul Ma'ad from which the lengthy fabricated narration (mentioned earlier) has been cited. In his book HaqquI Yaqeen, Baqi Majlisi cites a very lengthy narration in which Hadhrat Abu Bakr and Hadhrat Umar (Radiallahu Anhuma) are subjected to extreme vilification. Some excerpts from this fabricated narration of vilification are reproduced here. "After Makkah Muazzamah, Imam Mehdi will proceed to Madinah, the city of our grandfather, Rasulullah. At Madinah, he (Imam Mehdi) will demonstrate an astonishing act which will be a cause of great happiness for the Mu'mineen and a cause of disgrace for the kuffar and munafiqeen ... When Imam Mehdi will reach the grave of Rasulullah, he will ask the people: "0 people! Is this the grave of our grandfather, Rasulullah?" The people will say - "Yes, this is his grave." Imam Mehdi will then ask:" "Who are these persons who have been buried alongside our grandfather!" The people will say: "They are Abu Bakr and Umar, the closest companions of Rasulullah I" Imam Mehdi (inspite of knowing everything) will say: "Who was Abu Bakr? And, who was Umar? What was their excellence which necessitated their burial alongside our grandfather?"... "After three days, Sahibul Amr (the Shi'i title for Imam Mehdi) will order the walls to be broken and their bodies exhumed .. After the exhumation of their bodies, he will order their kafan to be removed and their bodies will be hung up on a dried out tree... " Imam Mehdi will command a dark storm to destroy those who loved them (i.e. Abu Bakr and Umar). Imam Mehdi will then order that the bodies be taken down from the tree. With the power of Allah, Imam Mehdi will restore them to life. He will order all mankind to gather. Then these two will be held liable for the sin of all oppression and kufr which occurred from the beginning of the world. They will be held responsible for all such sin ..... The sin of every murder committed, of every act of adultery committed, of every act of riba, of every act of haram wealth and injustice perpetrated until the advent of Imam Mehdi's appearance, will be charged against them (Abu Bakr and, Umar). Both of them will plead guilty to all these crimes ... Sahibul Amr will then command that they be hanged on a tree. He will command a fire to rise from the earth and devour them. A fire will (miraculously) rise and reduce them (Abu Bakr and Umar) and the tree to ashes.. " "Muhammad Rasulullah, Ameerul Mumineen (i.e. Hadhrat Ali), Fatimah Zahra, Hasan Mujtaba, Husain Shaheed, and all the sinless Imaams will come to life. All Mumins and all kafirs will also come to life. ""... The two (Abu Bakr and Umar) will then be punished so much, that daily, in one day and one night, they will be killed and restored to life a thousand times. After this, Allah will take them away to wherever Hedesires and continue punishing them as long as He desires. " This, then are Khomeini's beliefs and attitude in regard to the two highest Companions of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam). This is the official teaching of the Shiah religion. In his book Kashful Asrar on page 121, Khomeini advises his Shiah brethren to study the books of Mullah Baqir Majlisi who has presented these repugnant fabrications regarding the Sahaabah-e-Kiram (Radiallahu Anhum). SHI'ISM AND THE NOBLE MOTHERS OF THE UMMAH Allah Ta'ala says in the Qur'an: 
"The
Nabi has a greater claim on the Believers than their ownselves. And, his wives are their
mothers."
Thus, an article of our Imaan is honor, respect and love for
Umaahatul Mu'mineen, the holy Mothers of the Believers, Viz., the honorable wives of
Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam). Whoever denigrates them and brands them as
unbelievers, is himself/herself a kafir.
Among the honorable wives of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi
wasallam), Hadhrat Aishah (Radiallahu Anha) and Hadhrat Hafsah (Radiallahu Anha) are
special targets for Shi'i abuse, slander and vilification. This is because they are the
daughters of Hadhrat Abu Bakr and Hadhrat Umar (Radiallahu Anhuma) respectively. The same
degree of hatred cherished by Shiahs for Shaikhain (i.e. Abu Bakr and Umar (Radiallahu
Anhuma) is gorged out against Hadhrat Aishah and Hadhrat Hafsah (Radiallahu Anhuma). Shi'i
narration's shamelessly describe these illustrious and noble wives of Rasulullah
(sallallahu alayhi wasallam) as kafir, Munafiq, etc. The worst of slanders and calumnies
are leveled against them.
Mullah Baqir Majlisi, in his book, Hayatul Quloob - one of the
most authoritative books of the Shiah religion - repeatedly described Hadhrat Aishah and
Hadhrat Hafsah (Radiallahu Anhuma) as munafiqs (hypocrites).
Hadhrat Zubair and Hadhrat Talhah whom the Shiahs claim are among the "people of the Fire", are in fact members of the Ashrah Mubashsharah who are the ten Sahaabah unto whom Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) delivered the glad tidings of Jannat. These Sahabah already were informed by Nabi-e- Kareem (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) that their place in Jannat has already been secured, but Khomeini and his Shiahs believe that these noble men are among the people of the Fire. The Shiahs believe that Hadhrat Talhah (Radiallahu Anhu) is evil, treacherous, a criminal and among the people of the Fire, but Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said: 
But, Shi'ism preaches that all these Muhajireen and Ansar among
the Sahabah, in fact all the Sahabah with the exception of three, reneged from Islam, i.e.
they became murtads and kafirs after the demise of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi
wasallam). Thus, the "Asah-hul Kutub" The Most Authentic "of Books" of
the Shiah religion, Al-Jamiul Kafi, states in its chapter, Kitabur Raudhah on page 115:
"After (the demise of) Nabi-(sallallahu alayhi wasallam) -
all the people (i.e. the Sahabah) became murtads, excepting three. - Miqdad Bin Aswad, Abu
Zar Ghifari and Salman Farsi, the Rahmat and Barkat of Allah be on them."
*That Hadhrat Abu Bakr, Umar and the entire body of the Sahabah were murtads and munafiqs. * That Hadhrat Abu Bakr and Umar interpolated in the Qur'an, changing and deleting to suit their whims and desires. They fabricated and forged ahadith in conflict with the Qur'an. The logical conclusion emanating from these Shiah beliefs is that the Qur'an which we have with us today is not authentic since it was the compilation of these very Sahabah who are regarded as munafiqs by Shi'ism. Besides this fact stemming as the logical conclusion from Shiah beliefs, the highest books of the Shiah religion categorically assert the falsity of the present Qur'an. Insha'Allah, this claim will be described later. Abu Hurairah (Radiallahu Anhu) is a famous name. This illustrious Sahaabi of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) is well-known for his copious narration of ahadith. Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) made special dua for Hadhrat Abu Hurairah (Radiallahu Anhu), but Khomeini has the following to say about this eminent Sahaabi and Muhaddith: "God knows what Misfortunes Islam has Suffered from its inception down to the present at the hands of these evil 'ulama'. Abu Hurairah was one of the fuqaha, but Allah knows what judgments he falsified for Muaawiya and others like him, and what damage he inflicted upon Islam - But when a faqih like Abu Hurairah or a judge like Shurayh joins such a government, he improves its standing while besmirching the reputation of Islam." Commenting on this statement of Khomeini, Hamid Algar the compiler of Khomeini's writings and declarations, states:
(Muslim) Thus those who are Believers love Abu Hurairah (Radiallahu Anhu). Those who are unbelievers detest Hadhrat Abu Hurairah (Radiallahu Anhu). Khomeini, slandering the eminent Sahaabi, Hadhrat Samura Bin Jundub (Radiallahu Anhu) says: "Dissemination of the ordinances of Islam, as well as the teaching and instruction of the people, is the duty of the fuqaha who are just. For if they are not just, they will be like those who forged traditions harmful to Islam, like Samura ibn Jandab, who forged traditions hostile to the Commander of the Faithful."SHI'I LIES, SLANDER AND ABUSE Nahjul Balaaghah, one of the highest books of Shiah theology has the following abuse and vituperation for the Khulafa-e-Raashideen and the illustrious Sahaabah of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam); this scurrilous attack and abuse is ascribed by the Shiahs to Hadhrat Ali (Radiallahu Anhu).: "At last the first Caliph died, but while going, he appointed another to fill his vacancy. It is not astonishing that during his lifetime he was always badly in need of the help Of Others to compensate for his imperfections and defects and to cover his faults and failures, but at the time of his death he thought himself to be wise and learned enough to fix and appoint somebody to carry on the duties at which he was a complete failure himself." "Boldly and unscrupulously he and his successor (a reference to Hadhrat Umar), each in turn, pillaged and plundered the wealth of the community leaving the state in such sadly injured condition that the passage of time was increasing the intensity of the injury ... But it was carried on under the guise of law and order and many unacceptable excuses were offered to justify these irreligious and ungodly arrogation's and many more will be repeated in the future." "Consequently the third (i.e. Hadhrat Uthmaan) proudly took charge of the caliphate, as if it was a private grazing ground, and with bloated stomachs he and members of his clan (Bani Umayya) started plundering the wealth of the Muslim world in the same reckless gluttonous manner which characterizes a camel when it devours harvest grass. However, this man met an untimely death. The greed of his clan was the cause of his undoing. " (Nahjul Balaaghah) Another lie which the Shiahs attribute to Hadhrat Ali (Radiallahu Anhu) is the following statement: "You know very well that Amr-ibn-Aas himself is an inveterate liar, he usually lies, he makes promises without intention of fulfilling them ... He habitually breaks his pledges, never keeps a promise and is unkind and unmerciful In the battlefield before the swords are drawn and fight begins, he is usually very bold in giving orders and very conspicuous in pretension of leading the army; but when the fight actually begins, his greatest tactic is to show his opponents his naked buttocks. " (Writings and Declarations of Khomeini) The Shiah book, Usool-e-Kafi states: "The laws brought by Ali ... His rank is like the rank of Muhammad." This being the Shi'i belief regarding Hadhrat Ali (Radiallahu Anhu), they have been thrown into total disarray and confusion by the marriage of Hadhrat Ali's daughter to Hadhrat Umar. In struggling to explain away this indictment against Shi'ism, the Shiah priests resort to a variety of Taqiyah Tricks. But, far from satisfactorily explaining this truth, they only succeed in compounding their confusion and exhibiting their mental absurdity. How was it possible for Hadhrat Ali (Radiallahu Anhu) to have consented to his daughter marrying Hadhrat Umar (Radiallahu Anhu) whom Shi'ism unanimously brands as a munafiq, kafir, murtad, murderer, oppressor and a multitude of other vile epithets? Indeed, this holy marriage is perpetually dangling on the necks of the Shiah priests like a dead albatross which they are unable to shed off - with which they have to live and be haunted. Among the most ludicrous explanations fabricated by the Shiahs to argue away this historical fact, Rawindi the ' Qutubul Aqtab' of the Shiahs claims that when Hadhrat Umar (Radiallahu Anhu) pressurized and threatened Hadhrat Ali (Radiallahu Anhu) to consent to this marriage with Umme Kulthum, he (Ali) miraculously transformed a female Jinn into the form, and appearance of Kulthum. Thus, Hadhrat Umar (Radiallahu Anhu) married this female Jinn while the real Umme Kulthum remained in concealment. Only plunderers of Imaan could fabricate such nonsensical absurdity. This alleged miraculous transformation of the female Jinn is described in detail in the Shiah book, Mawaiz-e-Husainiyah. Regarding this marriage, Abu Ja'far Yaqub Kaleeni, claims in his book Furoo'Kafi (an authoritative book of the Shiahs) that Hadhrat Umar (Radiallahu Anhu) did not marry Umme Kulthum, but abducted her by force. According to these miserable Shiah slanderers, Hadhrat Umar captured her by force and fornicated with her (Nauthubillah!) and kept her in captivity against her wishes and without having performed nikah with her. Thus, then, is the reasoning of minds impregnated with kufr. The Shiah mujtahid, Muhammad Hussain Dakkoo states in his book, Tajalliat- e-Sadaqat: "While the Sunnis consider them Abu Bakr, Umar and Uthman) to be the noblest after Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) we (Shiahs) firmly believe that they were bereft of the wealth of Imaan and Ikhlas. "..... the three Khalifs (Abu Bakr, Umar and Uthman) in his (Ali's) estimation were sinners, liars, treacherous, cheats, oppressors and usurpers... " (Page 206) "The conquests during the reign of the first three Khalifs sullied the "The conquests during the reign of the first three Khalifs sullied the name of Islam."
(Page 95) (Page 100, the Shiah book by Hussain Buksh Jara, Munazarah Baghdad). The Shiah priest Ghulam Husain Najfi wrote in his book, Fi Jawab: Nikah Umme Kulthoom:(Page 430) Those are just a few statements cited from the book of this immoral and bestial Shi'i unbeliever. There are many other statements of extreme filth which these Shi'i hoodlum priests gorge out against Hadhrat Umar and Uthman (Radiallahu Anhu). But we feel too ashamed to record and too difficult to write the filthy words of vulgarity and immorality which the priests of Shi'ism so shamelessly and mercilessly direct against the most illustrious Sahabah of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam). The filthiest charges of moral debasement are hurled at Ameerul Mu'mineen Hadhrat Uthman about whom Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) spoke so glowingly. His modesty and shame were of such a lofty degree that, according to Rasulullah ( sallallahu alayhi wasallam), even the Malaikah felt shy for him. It is only Shi'i renegades and unbelievers who possess sufficient audacity and shamelessness to besmirch such a paragon of virtue and modesty with the vilest charges of immorality and moral debasement. May Allah Ta'ala eliminate these vile priests of blasphemy, slander, scandal and kufr. Khomeini's popular slogan is: "NO SUNNI'ISM AND NO SHI'ISM". This overt call of the Shi'i priests is designed for the consumption of Sunni Muslims who constitute the Ummah of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam). However, like numerous verbal professions of the Shi'i priests are based on their doctrine of Taqiyah, so too, is this vociferous slogan of "No Sunni'ism and No Shi'ism." (Taqiyah is the Shiah doctrine of holy hypocrisy by which it is permissible for them to conceal their true beliefs and profess verbally what they do not believe). How is it possible for there not to be Sunni'ism? And, how is it possible for there not to be Shi'ism? The foundation on which Sunni'ism is reared is Love for the Sahaabah of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) while the cornerstone of Shi'ism is Hatred for the Sahaabah. The two religions, viz., Islam and Shi'ism are irreconcilable opposites. The one repels the other. The slogan of Khomeini is nothing other than a piece of political trickery to gain the support of the Ahle Sunnah for the fulfillment of his despicable motives of political power. A group which pours out such extreme hatred for the Sahaabah of Nabi-e-Kareem (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) as the Shiah sect, can never stand on the same platform as those whose article of faith includes Love and respect for all the Sahaabah. Shiahs who proclaim that the highest among the Sahaabah were murtads and kafirs can never themselves be Muslims. Such vile claimants can never be the friends of those who follow the Path of the Sunnah, the Path of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) and the illustrious Sahaabah.
(Khomeinism and Islam-by Abu Rehan Farooqi). This attitude of Khomeini is not only his personal belief and personal hatred for the greatest 'Sahaabah, but it mirrors the belief of Shi'ism regarding Hadhrat Abu Bakr Siddique and Hadhrat Umar (Radiallahu Anhu). In the books of Shi'i theology, the following noxious beliefs are propagated: * When Imaam Mahdi appears, he will order the exhumation of the bodies of Hadhrat Abu Bakr and Hadhrat Umar. Their bodies will be hung on a tree for public show. Their bodies which even according to Shi'ism have not decomposed, will be stripped of their kafan. Thus, the nude bodies of these noble Sahaabah will be put up for a disgraceful show. * Imaam Mahdi will restore Hadhrat Abu Bakr and Hadhrat Umar to life. * The sins of entire mankind, right from the inception of the world until the time of Imaam Mahdi's appearance, collectively devolves on these two noble Sahaabah. Hence, Imaam Mahdi will put them to death. They will then be revived and death will continuously be inflicted on them a thousand times daily, forever and ever. These corrupt and vile allegations are stated in the Shi'i book, Haqqul Yaqeen, the author of which is among the highest Shiah theologians, Mullah Baqir who is also the author of another book Zaadul Ma'aad which likewise contains many vile fabrications about the Sahaabah. In his book, Zaadul Ma'aad, Mullah Baqir asserts that: * Hadhrat Umar, the second Khalifah of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam), was a kafir. (Nauthubillaah!) Not only a kafir, but the leader of the munaafiqeen. * Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) had cursed Hadhrat Umar and had prayed for his destruction. As a result of the la'nat (curse) which Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) and Hadhrat Faatimah (Radiallahu Anha) invoked on Umar (Radiallahu Anhu) he was murdered by the kafir Persian, Lu'lu'. * The murderer of Hadhrat Umar (Radiallahu Anhu), by virtue of having murdered Hadhrat Umar, deserved the mercy of Allah, hence, Hadhrat Huzaifah (according to Shi'i falsehood) prayed for Allah's Rahmat to be on the kafir, Lu'lu', the murderer of Hadhrat Umar (Radiallahu Anhu). * The most auspicious day in the year is the day Hadhrat Umar (Radiallahu Anhu) was murdered and the virtues and excellencies of this day stem from the murder of Umar. In honor of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi Wasallam) and Hadhrat Ali (Radiallahu Anhu), Allah Ta'ala annually-grants Shiahs three consecutive days in which they are permitted to sin freely. The Recording Angels are instructed to cease recording sins on these three days commencing on the day Hadhrat Umar (Radiallahu Anhu) was murdered. Three free days of sinning are among the ways of rejoicing the murder of Umar (Radiallahu Anhu). * Hadhrat Umar (Radiallahu Anhu) altered the Qur'aan Shareef and prevented others from Islam. These corruption's as well as many other falsehoods are imputed by the Shiahs to Hadhrat Umar, the man about whom Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said: "If after me there had to be a Nabi, It would have been Umar." "the most resolute in the Law of Allah is Umar." But, Shi'i priests shout: "No Sunni'ism and No Shi'ism." Muslims should not allow themselves to be deluded by the slogans of the Shi'i priests. Such slogans are motivated by a lust for political power. In his futile attempts to seek fulfillment of his dreams to rule the World of Islam, Khomeini strives to lure and dupe Sunni Muslims into his camp, for he is fully aware of the fact that minus Sunnis there is no Ummah, no Islam and no Islamic history. All Muslim lands barring Iran, are Sunni lands. Without Shiahs, Islam exists, since Shi'ism is a religion at variance with Islam. But, without Sunnis there is no Islam, for the only true Islam is the Deen followed by the Ahle Sunnah Wal Jama'. Khomeini understands this much, hence he seeks to woo the Ahle Sunnah by means of his hollow and insincere slogans of "No SHI'ISM and no SUNNI'ISM". But this slogan is raised under cover of the confounded Shiah doctrine of Taqiyah (holy fraud and holy hypocrisy). Some misguided elements, ostensibly members of the Sunni Ummah, are feverishly propagating the falsehood that the differences between the Shiahs and Sunnis are slight and of a technical nature. They are arduously laboring to create the belief that Shiahs and Sunnis are brothers when in all truth they are enemies. These errant propagandist and unofficial agents of Shi'ism, enamoured by the external facade of Islam rigged up by the present Shi'i clergy of lran, are taking umbrage at the exposure of Shi'ism by the Ulama of the Ahle Sunnah Wal Jama.' But, they must get the message clear and loud that all their howlings and epithets against the Ulama-e-Haqq will not prevent the kufr and villainy of Shi'ism being laid bare. It devolves upon the Ulama of the Ahle Sunnah to expose the noxious and anti-Islamic beliefs and teachings of Shi'ism so that Muslims are not deluded into supporting the enemies of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam), thereby denuding their Imaan of the luster and Noor which emanate from the Fountain of the Deen, viz., Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam). The truth of Shi'ism must be plainly stated and its pernicious teachings exposed so that the Shi'i propaganda emerging from Tehran be effectively countered in the interests of the Imaan of the rank and file of the Ahle Sunnah Wal Jama.' Most Muslims are not aware of what Shi'ism stands for. The external and superficial cloak of Islam donned by the Shi'i clergy coupled with the propaganda emerging from Tehran and the subtle endeavors of Khomeini's peddlers over here, are ensnaring unwary Muslims. Since the differences between Shi'ism and the Ahle Sunnah pertain to grave matters of Imaan and kufr, and not minor technical points and fiqhi masaail, it is essential that every Muslim be made aware of the beliefs and teachings of Shi'ism. Under the false pretence of 'unity', the advocates of Shi'ism are toiling to foist the baatil of the Shiah religion on the Ummah. 'Unity' or imagined unity seems to be the craze of those deficient in Imaan and lacking in A'maal. Their concept of unity is of greater importance to them than the Imaan which is the product of Wahi which descended upon Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam). In their politically motivated concept of unity, the product of the baneful nafs in the pursuit of aggrandizement and materialism, they are prepared to shelve and even discard the essential requirements of Imaan. For those of the Ahle Sunnah--for the Ummah--this is intolerable. Shi'ism cannot be reconciled with the Imaan taught and commanded by Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam). That Imaan is entirely at variance with the brand of Islam advocated by Shi'ism. The Shariah of the Qur'aan is not the religion of the Shiahs. The Qadianis also claim to be following the Qur'aan and the Sunnah. The Shiahs too. But, their life, their religion, their beliefs and actions, their attitudes and conceptions are not those of that Imaan which the Ummah of Nabi-e-Kareem (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) knows. The differences between the Shiahs and us are too grave and glaring. We are at opposite poles. The gap is unbridgeable. There is nothing in common between us.CONCLUSION In the a foregoing pages it has been abundantly clarified that Shi'ism stand on the basis of hatred for the Sahabah of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam). Thus, a perpetual tirade of venom, insult, abuse and vilification permeate the books of the Shiah religion. This mass of vituperation is directed against the first three Khulafa-e-Raashideen, Hadhrat Abu Bakr, Hadhrat Umar and Hadhrat Uthman (Radiallahu Anhum) in particular and against all Sahabah in general. As mentioned earlier, the Shi'i religion propagates that all the Sahabah of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam), excepting three, became murtads (Nauthubillah!) after the demise of Nabi-e-Kareem (sallallahu alayhi wasallam). Hence, vilification of the Sahabah is regarded as an honorable and meritorious act in Shi'ism. But, according to Islam, love for the Sahabah is a fundamental requirement of Imaan. Vilification of the Sahabah is kufr. Those who deny the Imaan of the Khulafa-e-Raashideen and accuse them of kufr, irtidaad and Nifaaq, are themselves kuffar of the worst order. Unity with such Shi'i blasphemers - and Khomeini is one of them - is inconceivable. The Ahle Sunnah and the Shiahs are trodding divergent and opposite paths. Kufr and Imaan cannot meet or compromise. Members of the Ahle Sunnah, i.e. the Ummah of Islam, should not be misled by the vociferous and overt pious and brotherly slogans which Khomeini and the Shi'i clergy raise. Their calls and slogans of unity, brotherhood and Islam are all fraudulent and hypocritical since these are based on the Shiah Doctrine of holy hypocrisy known as Taqiyah. The purpose of those holy hypocritical calls is to deceive Muslims - to ensnare Muslims - to secure the support of Muslims for the pernicious political motives of Khomeini. May Allah Ta'ala protect our Imaan. Muhammad Baqir Sadr, a leading Shi'i theologian states: "The Shiah believed that Ali should have ruled instead of these three Caliphs, and should have assumed the Caliphate immediately after the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wasallam)." "According to Shi'i belief the Sahaabah in general and Hadhrat Abu Bakr and Hadhrat Umar (Radiallahu Anhuma) in particular, defied Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam)- rejected his appointment of Hadhrat Ali (Radiallahu Anhu) as the Khalifah after him Hence, the Shiahs revile, abuse and slander these great Companions of Nabi-e-Kareem (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) on the basis of the fallacy concocted by the murderers of Ameerul Mu'mineen Sayyidina Uthmaan (Radiallahu Anhu). The actual founders of the Shiah sect were the murderers of Hadhrat Uthman (Radiallahu Anhu). (Bukhari) "... we find that it is necessary to accept the existence of a large trend, from the very lifetime of the Prophet who inclined towards Proposing the use of Ijtihad and cirumstancial considerations in determining their interests, above strict adherence to the religious texts." "This trend was represented by a daring group of important Companions like, Umar b-al-Khattab, who disputed with (he Messenger (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) and made judgements contradicting the text in many Subjects, believing that he had the right to do so." The type of 'ijtihad' which the Shiahs attribute to Hadhrat Umar (Radiallahu Anhu), in particular, and other Sahabah, in general, is described in the following statement of Baqir Sadr: "...we mean by 'ijtihad' the making of judgements in contradiction to the text or acceptance of such a judgement." Khomeini's Criticism "A certain person asked the Caliph (Abu Bakr) a point of law and he was unable to answer; he was therefore unfit for the position of a leader and successor to the Prophet. Or again, a certain act he perform was contrary to the laws of Islam, hence he was unworthy of his high past. " (Writing and Declarations of Khomeini) In an annotation on this statement, Hamid Algar, the compiler of Khomeini's writings and speeches, says: "The reference here is to certain shortcomings Shias have traditionally perceived in the exercise of rule by Abu Bakr. " The Shi'i theologian, Tabatabai, accusing Hadhrat Abu Bakr (Radiallahu Anhu) of having greater concern for Zakaat than the institution of Khilafate says: "Surely the problem of the legitimate caliphate was more important and significant than tithes (Zakaat), and Shi'ism believes that the same principle applied by the first caliph to this matter should have been applied by the whole early community to the problem of succession to the Holy Prophet. " This reflects the Shi'i belief that Hadhrat Abu Bakr and Hadhrat Umar along with the general body of Sahabah (Radiallahu Anhum) usurped the Khilaafat which according to the religion of the Shias was the inherent and divine right of Hadhrat Ali (Radiallahu Anhu). Here the Shi'i priest, Tabatabai accuses Hadhrat Abu Bakr of having denied Hadhrat Ali his legitimate rights. He further alleges that Hadhrat Abu Bakr and the Sahaabah (Radiallahu Anhum) accorded no concern to the question of the appointment of the Khalifah and that they violated the Shariah in installing Hadhrat Abu Bakr (Radiallahu Anhu). The Shi'i belief in regard to the Khilaafat after Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) is that the Sahaabah failed in applying the principle of 'truth and justice' because they accepted Hadhrat Abu Bakr (Radiallahu Anhu) as the Khalifah of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam).In another crude aspersion cast against the mission of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam), the Shi'i priest, Baqir Sadr states: "Everything that has gone before Proves that the instruction given by the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) to the Muhajirun and the Ansar did not reach a level which would have been necessitated by the conscious, intellectual and political preparation required to guide the future path of the Da'wa and the process of change which had been instigated by the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wasallam)."Majlisul-Ulama P.O.
