[@omerasadshaik6426]

What Abubakr and Omar achieved as leaders after the death of Prophet SAW when almost whole of Arabia apostatized was extraordinary remarkable. Ali as compare to the two aforementioned Caliphs was not politically capable and his failure in handling successfully the post Othman era which was far less challenging than the period Abubakr inherited is a testimony to the capabilities of Abubakr & Omar. Omar was the chief advisor and architect behind every decision Abubakr made during his Caliphate. Caliphate in Islam is decided by people, and there was no way Ali could have got elected above Abubakr & Omar, though Ali had to his advantage the blood relationship to Prophet and Prophet’s only surviving daughter (Fatima) was his wife. Ali himself was a remarkable person in his own way but the two closest advisors to Prophet and the two most respectable men after Prophet and the two who were groomed to lead after Prophet, the two who had acceptability among not just Prophet’s Companions but around Arabia were none but Abubakr and Omar. Even during Prophets life there are many instances that showed their special place… in the battle of Uhud, if one recalls the dialogue between Abi-Sufyan & Muslims, he enquired about Prophet (he was confirming about the rumor that Prophet has been martyred) & immediately after Prophet he asked about Abubakr & Omar? That shows the hierarchy among Muslims, even Kuffar Quraish knew the importance of Abubakr and Omar. And finally, when Al-Abbas the Prophet’s uncle suggested Ali to get anything in favor for himself as Prophet might not survive this illness, Ali wasn’t confident & refused to go to Prophet to seek for his nomination for leadership position (Caliph). Ali said that Prophet’s refusal to appoint him may take away any little chance he may have in future to assume or to get elected/ appointed as a Caliph. In summary; Ali had all the credentials to be first Caliph like all other very senior Companions had, but he wasn’t the best for this job in the eyes of them while Abubakr & Omar were still alive. Who are we now after 1450 years to judge the decisions made by Prophet’s Companions and specially when their decisions (of appointing Abubakr & later Omar) were the most successful of decisions in human history!

[@skepticalbaby7300]

The caliph was never chosen by the people. They were either chosen by a small group or designated by the reigning caliph. U r making up a rule that never existed. The fact is that there was a question of succession. The companions didn't even agree that there should be one successor. Some Ansari argued that there should be one for them and another for the muhajirun. Ali's claim was that he had been designated by the Prophet (sas) so the opinion of the companions would have been irrelevant anyway. It's useless to argue the counterfactual that Ali would have been a worse caliph than Abu Bakr as if u know how Ali would have done. Isn't that knowledge that only belongs to Allah? All I say is that if Ali could accept (by not rebelling) the authority of the first three caliph, then who am I to raise an issue now?

[@omerasadshaik6426]

@@skepticalbaby7300 Ali never claimed he was designated by Prophet and if that were the case he would never have agreed and accepted his predecessors and wouldn’t have served under them. And we suggesting such a thing which he never claimed is a sin. And the hundreds & thousands of Companions who believed in the last Prophet & Quran and fought and died for him would ever have accepted anything short of Ali’s Caliphate IF prophet had nominated him. We tarnish the Iman of all Companions by creating a lie that never existed. The Caliphs were not elected by people directly as the elections are conducted today but consultations were done with all parties among Sabiqoon Al Awwaloon Minal Muhajiroon & Ansar and they all were agreed upon by vas majority. If any one person whom Prophet indirectly suggested was Abubakr as he didn’t allowed anyone else to lead prayers except him. Ali had the desire and there is nothing wrong and he knew that his chances were slim. And it was he who pushed the name of Omar as second Caliph. Ali got his chance though the situation was challenging and he made it tough by his certain decisions and he wasn’t politically successful. The humongous challenges Abubakr faced when he assumed the office of Caliphate was far much tougher & challenging and every decision he took was successful to an extent that he & later Omar became the standard on which all the later Islamic rulers were measured. It is not that Ali didn’t get a chance, he got it and he is considered the rightly guided Caliph. Though his political decisions at times questionable but his Iman, Taqwa, Tawakkul, ILM, ADL…. are among the best and he belongs to highest echelons of the Companions. Your conclusion said it all. Ali didn’t rebel because he was never nominated by Prophet and none was nominated. He served under the three predecessors with integrity and it was due to their sacrifice and success we are Muslims today! Who are we to question today who should have been the first Caliph while we live in a time with enough challenges of our own and we are struggling to survive let alone perform!

[@skepticalbaby7300]

@omerasadshaik6426 The designation in question is that of ghadeer khumm. And Ali did refer to it after his ascension to be Khalifa. However, the sahabah differed on whether it was a designation of succession as they would differ on many things. It is not a question of emaan, but reasonable differences in interpretation. Besides, it is not necessary for Ali to have made the claim. Abu Bakr never stated his claim to the Khalifa. Umar pressed Abu Bakr's case. Will u now say that Abu Bakr's claim to the Khalifa is non-historical because he never expressed the claim? Ur history is incorrect. All of the muhajirun were not at saqifah. The reliable reports only confirm that Abu Bakr, Umar, and Abu Ubaydah were there. We know this because the Banu Hashim refused to accept the result and Umar went through Medina to get their oath of allegience. If everyone was there, then why would he have to go through Medina? There was no vote on candidates. Umar simply grabbed Abu Bakr's hand, pledged allegiance, and encouraged others to follow. That is not an election with competing candidates. And even if u term it an election, ur claim that it is a rule if false because neither Abu Bakr nor Umar repeated the process. Indeed, Umar called Saqifa a "falta" meaning a rushed, ill-conceived event. And that is why it was not repeated. And u are wrong that Abu bakr was the only one the Prophet (sas) ever designated to lead the prayer. Numerous others had been designated to lead the prayer in the past. Will u now argue that they were designated by the Prophet (sas)? That's ridiculous. In your effort to explain why the Ummah was correct in the selection of Abu Bakr and Umar, u disparage Ali. U lift up Abu Bakr and Umar, but tear down Ali. Why? U have repeatedly stated that such and such remarks denigrate the Sahabah. But u are the one highlighting Ali's flaws and claiming that he could never do this or that. U are the one ranking the Sahabah and placing one over the other 1400 years after the fact. It is divisive and u should really examine why u feel it is necessary.

[@mdarquamali1484]

Another important point ☝️ which you have raised that is that Hussain ibn Ali didn't had supporters but the fact is imam Hussain was the cheif of banu Hashim tribe one of the wealthiest clan of hejaz and several tribes of iraq and hejaz supported imam Hussain only. Hussain stood up for the re establishment of the rashidun Caliphate. And rashidun Caliphate was Caliphate were caliphs were elected by a higher Advisory committee. Muawiyah carried out the development works for the Syrian people because it was his power base and he especially ignored iraq and hejaz and was involved in the killing of notable companions of the prophet Muhammad. His reign was peaceful just because of imam Hasan's peace treaty with him .

[@ALI-om2re]

Uthman was chosen over Ali (as) because Ali (as) rejected to rule the way Umar and Abu Bakr ruled. Where do you come up with Hussain (as) ibn Ali wanted to rule like the previous caliphs?

[@mdarquamali1484]

​@@ALI-om2re When I have told Hussain ibn Ali wanted to rule. Syawish said that Hussain didn't had supporters. I was telling him the fact that he had supporters. Around 25,000 people in kufa gave their alligience to imam Hussain and several people from other parts of the state also supported imam Hussain. But as curfew was imposed by ubaydullah ibn ziyad in kufa the things went wrong.

​@@ALI-om2reI never said Hussain demanded the Caliphate. The mission of imam was to re establish the rashidun Caliphate through a revolution.

[@ALI-om2re]

@@mdarquamali1484 what I’m trying to say is Ahlul-Bayt (as) at its core didn’t believe in the Caliphate of the first three caliphs as it’s well documented. So Hussain ibn Ali (as) wasn’t trying to re-establish that system. And of course I’m Shia and your probably Sunni so we have our different views but I’ve never seen a Sunni say that Hussain (as) wanted to establish that system of caliphate in it self or any proof being provided for that.

Muawiyah I became caliph less than 30 years following the death of The Messenger of God; prophet Muhammad (Muawiyah's brother in law) and very shortly after the reign of the four "rightly guided" (Rashidun) caliphs. Although many believe that Muawiyah I was considered to be lacking in the justice and piety of the Rashidun, Muawiyah was also the first caliph whose name appeared on coins, inscriptions, or documents of the nascent Islamic empire. Anyway I always love his quote below: "I never use my sword when the lash suffices, nor the lash when my tongue is enough." _Muawiyah ibn abi Sufyan.

People were dissatisfied with his reign except the people of Syria. The people didn't revolted during his reign was because there was a clause in Hasan Muawiyah peace treaty that Muawiyah will leave matter of appointment of the news Caliph in the hands of the consultative assembly of Ansar and muhajirun. But he appointed his son. All the clauses of that treaty were violated and people were looking for an imam who would overthrow this corrupt regime. That's why people from hejaz and iraq reguraly visted imam Hussain. And as a result after his death people revolted and at the end which led to the establishment of Abdullah ibn zubair s' Caliphate.

In the most simplest terms we can say: He was a good general and politician but betrayed his values for his family. Like when we really look at all the opportunities there were to avoid so much conflict, his stance boils down to him being loyal and needing the support of his clan. He fell back on pre-Islamic values rather than embrace the egalitarian structure. Honestly, it seems if he just worked with Ali (RA) and basically said 'Ok, Uthman (RA) messed up A LOT, but he is a Caliph, so just for the obligation to our government alone we have to rectify this' (And of course it would be on Ali to actually decide to agree) and support him politically while keeping his family under close watch, things could've looked very different. Bc in the end, regardless of hidden intentions or personality, everything that matters about him as a person is known through his actions. And his actions were f*cked up

This man stripped Islam of its sole. Changed hadeeth to fit his imperial ambitions, and ruled Dae$s style, profiteering from war and carnage. The word Caliph means successor to the prophet leading in accordance with Islamic principles. This man was not principled. He was a machiavellian politician, but not machiavellian enough to create a sustainable kingdom. Machiavellianism isn't Islamic, the prophet wasn't machiavellian and this man wasn't a caliph to the prophet. Why glorify a man because he built am empire? It wasn't Islam's objective to create an empire. Islam spread organically throughout southeast Asia when decent peaceful Arabs visited for trade and showed a good example to their hosts. The right Caliph to the prophet would have done the same.

​@@greenvox WOW, brother you are entitled to your opinion but let me respond to your remarks and hope to understand why I love all companions: 1- A companion is anyone who accepted Islam and accompanied the prophet which Mu’awiyah did. Many Sahaba accepted Islam after the conquest of Makkah like عكرمة بن ابي جهل و صفوان بن خلف and those are companions. 2- He never abused his sister and there are no confirmed details about that, in fact she visited Mu’awiyah in Damascus during his reign. 3- Ali was better than him and we all now that, but it does not mean that he was not a musilm or great leader. They both had a different approach of hoe to handle Othman's killers. 4- Mu’awiyah and Ali were first cousin and both family to the prophet and he did not kill the prophet's family. 5- Mu’awiyah is the founder of the dynasty of the Ummayad caliphate which is the largest Arab - Islamic empire in history. Mu’awiyah was a great leader and shroud politician who unified the Ummah and spread Islam and defeated the romans.

Allah the knower of the unseen, told us what to say about the sahaba even though Allah and even the prophet sallahoe alihi we selam knew that fitnah would come between the sahaba ( ra ) after his death : “As for those who had settled in the city and ˹embraced˺ the faith before ˹the arrival of˺ the emigrants, they love whoever immigrates to them, never having a desire in their hearts for whatever ˹of the gains˺ is given to the emigrants. They give ˹the emigrants˺ preference over themselves even though they may be in need. And whoever is saved from the selfishness of their own souls, it is they who are ˹truly˺ successful. And those who come after them will pray, “Our Lord! Forgive us and our fellow believers who preceded us in faith, and do not allow bitterness into our hearts towards those who believe. Our Lord! Indeed, You are Ever Gracious, Most Merciful.” - surah al Hashr verse 10 and 11 Ali ( ra ) had by that point the most right to become the caliph. The fitna that occured between the sahaba does not mean one party was disbelievers and other were muslims. There could be the 2 muslim groups fighting each other like Allah says : “And if two groups of believers fight each other, then make peace between them. But if one of them transgresses against the other, then fight against the transgressing group until they ˹are willing to˺ submit to the rule of Allah. If they do so, then make peace between both ˹groups˺ in all fairness and act justly. Surely Allah loves those who uphold justice. The believers are but one brotherhood, so make peace between your brothers. And be mindful of Allah so you may be shown mercy.” Surah hujurat verse 10 and 11 It is very important to not be biased when you look in to these events And that you take all hadiths that are relaible in consideration, not just the ones that fit in your political alignment whimps and desires..

Why would he praise someone that’s going to be in the fire . Allah only praises someone in the quran after he has tested them. This doesn’t mean that sahaba are without sin or fault… But it means that they are best people after the prophets that came out of humankind because Allah says : You are the best community ever raised for humanity-you encourage good, forbid evil, and believe in Allah. Had the People of the Book believed, it would have been better for them. Some of them are faithful, but most are rebellious. Surah ali imraan verse 110 This verse refers to prophet muhammed sallahoe alihi we selam and the sahaba.. and it wil refer to every muslim that comes with the same qualifications as the sahaba did before they got this praise from Allah… the knower over everything, the al wise … etc Also, that’s why Allah says and I refer back to the ayah of surah hashr “ And those who come after them will pray, “Our Lord! Forgive us and our fellow believers who preceded us in faith, and do not allow bitterness into our hearts towards those who believe. Our Lord! Indeed, You are Ever Gracious, Most Merciful.” This ayah refers to sahaba and to every muslim generation that will come after them that we need to ask forgiveness for them.. and that we ask Allah not put any animosity in our hearts towards a believer even if he did a sin or a mistake. As allah says about himself : Allah - there is no deity except Him, the Ever-Living, the Sustainer of [all] existence. Neither drowsiness overtakes Him nor sleep. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Who is it that can intercede with Him except by His permission? He knows what is [presently] before them and what will be after them, and they encompass not a thing of His knowledge except for what He wills. His Kursi extends over the heavens and the earth, and their preservation tires Him not. And He is the Most High, the Most Great." Surah baqarah Ayat koersie So that means Allah knew what would happen and so did the prophet sallahoe alihi we selam in multiple hadiths he had mentioned this to the his companions.. Mujahid reported: Ibn Abbas, may Allah be pleased with him, said, “Do not curse the companions of Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, for Allah Almighty commanded seeking forgiveness for them even though He knew they would fight each other.” Source: Faḍā’il al-Ṣaḥābah li-Aḥmad Ibn Ḥanbal 1741 Grade: Sahih (authentic) according to Ibn Taymiyyah
