Tabbarra – Cursing the enemies of Ahlulbayt (as) is the Sunnah of Ibn Tamiyah too

One of the basic tools of Nasibi propaganda agasint the Shias  have always included that Shias pratcie Tabbarra against the enemies of Ahlulbayt (as) which shows how hateful they are! To such segment of Nawasib, we would like to cite the comments of their Imam Ibn Tamiyyah who likewise did Tabarrah upon the enemies of Ahlulbayt (as) in the following manner: 

In his compilation of edicts it is mentioned : 

قَالَ مُقَدَّمٌ: فَمَنْ يُبْغِضُ أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ؟

قُلْت: مَنْ أَبْغَضَهُمْ فَعَلَيْهِ لَعْنَةُ اللَّهِ وَالْمَلَائِكَةِ وَالنَّاسِ أَجْمَعِينَ لَا يَقْبَلُ اللَّهُ مِنْهُ صَرْفًا وَلَا عَدْلًا.

Muqdam asked : Who hates Ahl ul Bayt (as)

I (Ibn Tamiyyah) say : One who hates them, May Curse of Allah, Angels and of every human be upon him and Allah (swt) will never accept any good act from him.

Majmoa Al- Fatawa -  Ibn Tamiyyah // Volume 2 // Page 298 // Edn. Dar Ibn Hazm Riyadh Saudia Arabia.

At another place in the same compilation he says : 

“Whoever killed Hussain, or contributed or was pleased with it, may Allah’s, Angel’s and people’s curse be upon him, may Allah don’t accept his worship and acts.”
