PART III
INSINUATIONS, DEVIOUS ATTEMPTS AND DEFAMATIONS OF SALIM’S BOOK
Introduction and Preface to Part III In this Part, we will review some inquiries and question marks raised about assaulting those in authority as they follow up the carrying out of the enactment parts of rebelling against the divine decision and the Prophetic message. We will see how they snatched right from its owner, the one to whom they swore the oath of allegiance on the Ghadir Day, giving Allah a promise that they would be loyal to him and never to betray him. Someone has cast doubts about anything taking place other than some people threatening to set the house of Fatima (A.S.) on fire. He has brought a number of issues which he regards as justifications for his stand wherein he considers this issue as having no impact on the creed, emphasizing that we should discuss our own issues before others do so, then we ought to discard them. Such type of talk suggests the de facto discarding of issues. It is as though one says, “Let us discard them ourselves before others do so.” In this part, we will point out how his statement is far from being sound and will discuss an aspect of such question marks and exceptions which are based on recommendations, preferences and considerations which cannot be relied upon. They are unreliable because they, though probably having come involuntarily, have taken some aspects into consideration while neglecting far more important issues which agree with the basis of studying sensitive subjects like the one we are dealing with here as we will see.
- Let us Drop our Issues Before Others Do So! - “I Discussed it with all Scholars” - Denying that al-Zahra’ (A.S.) was Beaten Means Calling the Oppressors Innocent - “I do not Care if al-Zahra’ (A.S.) was Beaten and it is not Relevant to the Creed” - Backgrounds Declared by Words - “He Applied Ijtihad and Erred...!” - “They Relied Upon Salim’s Book, Which is Not Reliable” - Origin of Casting Doubt About Salim’s Book - The Second Issue: the Thirteen Imams
