Shia Pen

Chapter One: Introduction

 

The writers of Ansar.Org have perpetuated the common lie that the Shia killed Imam Hussain (as). In this refutation we shall analyse the facts of history to expose the fallacy of such a claim. Their argument can be summarised as follows:

  • The Shi’a invited Imam Hussain (as) by writing letters and requesting that he come to Kufa so that they can recognise him as their Imam.
  • Imam Hussain (as) sent Muslim bin Aqeel (as) as his representative to assess the situation
  • The Shi’a gave bayya to Imam Hussain via Hadhrat Muslim bin Aqeel (as).
  • The same Shi’a subsequently abandoned him following Abdullah ibn Ziyad’s entry into Kufa.
  • The Shi’a failed to support Imam Hussain (as) that in consequence caused his killed.

The approach we have taken is to focus on the historical sources in detail and then identify and expose the beliefs of the Kufan people.
