4 Dear beloved Brothers, Let us have taqwa towards Allah with the utmost taqwa. We hope that by applying it; our life will be filled with blessing and guidance from Allah.

5 Dear beloved Brothers, One of the fundamental beliefs of Ahlus Sunnah wal Jama ah that distinguishes them from heretics is their belief in the Companions of the Prophet (s.a.w.) and all that has been mentioned in the Qur'an and Sunnah about their virtues, merits and characteristics.

6 The Companions are praised in many Qur'anic verses:

7

8 Which means: And the first to embrace Islam of the Muhajiroon (the Emigrants from Makkah) and the Ansar (the citizens of Al-Madeenah who helped the Muhajiroon) and also those who followed them exactly (in Faith).

9 Allah is well-pleased with them as they are well pleased with Him. He has prepared for them Gardens under which rivers flow, to dwell therein forever. That is the supreme success." Surah Al-Taubah verse 100

10 Allah says:

11 "Indeed, Allah was pleased with the believers when they gave their pledge to you (O Muhammad) under the tree. He knew what was in their hearts and He sent down calmness and tranquility upon them..." Surah al-fath verse 18

12 The Prophet (saw) said "Do not abuse my Companions, for if any of you were to spend gold equal to (mountain of) Uhud in charity, it would not equal a handful of one of them or even half of that" [al- Bukharee, Muslim].

13 And he said, "Whoever abuses my Companions, upon them is the curse of Allah, the angels and all the people" [Saheeh, At-Tabaranee].

14 According to Shia doctrine, the vast majority of the Sahaaba were liars and apostates.

15 One of the leading scholars of the Shia, al-kashshi, reported that Abu Ja'far said: "The people all became apostates after the Prophet's death except for three."

16 When asked who they were, he replied, "Al-Miqdad ibn Aswad, Abu Dharr, and Salman as mentioned in the verse, 'If he (Muhammad) dies or is killed, will you then turn on your heels." (Rijal al-kashshi pp 12-13).

17 Mullah Baqir Majlisi is a renowned scholars in Shiah circles. The Shi'i clergy have accorded him the title, Khatamul Muhadditheen (the seal of the hadith scholars). Khomeini has praised and recommended his writings.

18 Mullah Baqir Majlisi says: We believe that we should seek disassociation from four idols namely, Abu Bakr, Omar, Uthman and Mu'awiyah; from four women namely, Ayesha, Hafsa, Hind and Ummul Hakam, along with all their associates and followers.

19 These are the worst creation of Allah. It is not possible to believe in Allah, His Messenger and the Imams without disassociating oneself from their enemies. (Haqqul Yaqeen: 2:519)

20 Mullah Baqir also writes: 'One should say after each prayer: O Allah! Curse Abu Bakr, Omar, Uthman, Mu'awiyah, Ayesha, Hafsa, Hind and Ummul Hakam. (Aynul Hayat: 599)

21 He also states in his book, Zadul Ma'ad, numerous virtues and excellencies of the 9th of Rabiul Awwal.

22 According to Baqir Majlisi, the significance and excellence of 9th Rabiul Awwal are because "Umar, the enemy of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) and the enemy of the Ahle Bait" will be killed on the 9th Rabiul Awwal.

23 It is for this reason that the 9th of Rabiul Awwal should be observed as a great occasion of happiness and festivity according to Shi'ism

24 In the book "Al-Kafi fil-usool, a collection of ahadith attributed to the Prophet (salalahu alaihi wa sallam) and some of the Imams of the Shia, and held in the same esteem amongst shia as Sahih Bukhari is amongst the Ahl us- Sunnah, we find the following two narrations:

25 "Whoever sets up another Imam besides 'Ali and delays 'Ali's caliphate is a polytheist." (Al Kafi vol.10 p.55) (this "hadith" refers to everyone who accepts the validity of the caliphates of Abu Bakr, 'Umar and Uthman.

26 The Shia claim that the caliphate was stolen from 'Ali, and only he and his descendants have the right to rule the Muslims.

27 In explanation of the verse: "On the day when the wrong-doer bites his hands saying, 'O if only I had taken the right path with the Prophet! O woe is me, if only I had not taken so-and so as a friend!" (25:27-28)

28 One of the most highly respected scholars of Tafseer amongst the Shia, Al-Qummi, states that "so-andso" is 'Umar ibn Al-Khattab (r.a.)

29 Al-Qummi claims that Abu Ja'far said that the following verse: "Verily the doors of Heaven will not open for those who deny Our signs and are arrogant towards them, nor will they enter paradise until a camel passes through the eye of a needle."(7:40)

30 It was revealed about to the two Companions, Talhah (ra) and az- Zubayr (ra). Thus, according to Al- Qummi, both Talhah(ra) and az- Zubayr (ra), who were both amongst the ten who received glad tidings of paradise from the Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) himself, will never enter paradise!

31 The Shias believe that most of the sahaba were the worst sort, liars and apostates. There is even a special dua, called "Dua Sanamay Quraysh" (The two Idols of the Quraysh):

32 O' Allah, sal ala Muhamed wa ala aal Muhamed and curse the two idols of Quraysh (Abu Bakr and Omar), its (Quraysh's) two sorcerers, its two tyrants, its two liars, and their two daughters (Aysha and Hafsah) who (Abu Bakr and Omar) disagreed with your order.

33 Khomeini approved this cursed supplication in the book called Tuhfat Al-Owam Maqbool.

34 The Shia doctrine in fact holds that all who do not follow their doctrine are disbelievers and apostate from Islam, with the following hadith from Al-Kafi cited in support:

35 "Doubt about the Imamate of 'Ali is like doubt about the mission of Muhammad (salalahu alaihi wa sallam) and one who doubts both should be killed if possible, if he claims to be a Muslim.

36 (alon the other hand, disbelievers are like the Jews and Christians and should not be killed for these reasons." -Kafi vol.6 p.393)

37 So do our present day Shia really believe in these books and curse the sahaba?

38 Simply typing the word Shia into YouTube will bring forth many videos of current Shia Raafidi scholars and speakers from around the world cursing and maligning the great and noble companions and the wives of the Prophet (saw).

39 The present Shia make no effort in disguising their hatred for the sahaba and arouse their masses by reviling the sahaba publicly. We encourage you to see for yourself.

40 The most famous Shia of the 20th century, Khomeni states: "They Abu Bakr and Umar had nothing to do with Islaam and Qur'aan, except to seize worldly power, and had been using the Qur'aan as a smokescreen to fulfil their evil intentions"

41 At the end of this very book, Khomeini has given these headlines to various chapters: "Abu Bakr's opposition to the text of the Qur'aan; Umar's opposition to Allah's Qur'aan." (Kashful Asraar. pages 114 and 117).

42 He also stated: "The Islamic and non-islamic powers of the world will not admit our power till such time that we establish our hold over Makkah and Madinah because these are the centers and citadels of Islam.

43 Hence our domination over these places is an essential requirement... when as a conqueror I will enter Makkah and Madinah, the first thing to be done at that time by me would be to dig out two idols (Abu Bakr and Umar) lying by the side of the Prophet's grave. (Khomeini, while addressing a message for a youth rally).
