I am an ex sunni maliki Muslim and I strongly believe in the prophet's statement saying : " لا تدع عائشة عداوتنا نحن أهل البيت " - 'Aisha would never let go our enmity , we Ahlilbayt - So , it is definitely absurd , non sense , not recommended ,, actually forbidden to ask Allah to be pleased with someone who killed the prophet of Islam ; 'Aisha.

@@8heavyhchamp8 Nobody is asking you to believe everything you see or hear, but when you have overwhelming evidence that SOME of the "companions" and wives of the Prophet, peace be upon him and his family, weren't that great as Sunnis claim, you have to take a clear stance against them. In this video, it becomes even more clear the type of person Aisha was, so it becomes necessary to condemn her for the actions committed by her throughout her life against the Prophets' family, alayhisalam.

[@HadithOfThaqlain]

@@8heavyhchamp8 She literally went to war with Imam Ali alayhisalam, have you forgotten the Battle of Jamal? He was the Imam of her time and the Khalifa, thousands of people died because of her actions. What more proof do you want? I gave a huge list of Sunni hadiths in a prior reply in this thread, read through them and then it becomes clear why she should be condemned, the only respect that can be given was that she was the wife of the Prophet, peace be upon him and his family, but that is due to the respect given to the Prophet, not because of her own status.

When ifk happened it was previous position. After that incidence the Quranic verse revealed. Obviously, this law should be applicable next time. So that, prophet ( pbuh ) didn't punished . I think so. Allah knows best.

This can be a very logical argument. Allah warned through this incident of severe punishment if such an accusation is repeated.

If Aisha was an unbeliever, how could the Prophet marry her when marrying Kafirs is haram?

[@Thaqlain]

Where did we say Ayesha was an unbeliever?

[@wissamalhashemi5548]

@@Thaqlain I'll preface this by saying that I'm neither a sunni or shia, I'm just trying to learn more about both perspectives. Whilst doing so, I came across a handful of your videos which I thought were interesting. The logic used in your presentation and arguments were sound, but it left me with the above question. In your earlier videos that I watched, you never explicitly called Ayesha an unbeliever, but it was implied so by bringing up multiple examples of instances where the Prophet SAW dismissed Ayesha. Such as when you brought the example of how when Umar visitted the Prophet, the Prophet asked Ayesha to bring them food repeatedly, and she swore in the end that they had no food to serve. Umar then told thr Prophet that a believing woman wouldn't swear by Allah and lie, and in response the Prophet smiled and said "Who told you she's a believing woman?" - this is one of the examples you've brought up in past videos of instances where it's implied that Ayesha was an unbeliever. I recall 2-3 more out of the 4 videos I watched, but I think my response so far is enough. Again, I'm not sunni nor shia, I'm not trying to critisize you, but I'm trying to understand and learn. With the logic you've used in the past of how the Prophet can't do anything that goes against the Quran, how then can you bring up examples of instances where the state of Ayesha's belief was lowered to the point where she's made out to be a kafir by implication, if the Quran says marrying a kafir is haram and the prophet can't do anything against the Quran?

[@Thaqlain]

There are two stages of belief: Islam and Iman. The one who announces Tawheed and Prophethood has accepted Islam and hence is a Muslim. In most circumstances, when the term unbeliever is presented, it means in the sense of Iman. The only person for whom Takfir is allowed is Nasibi, the one who explicitly displays hatred for Ahlulbayt of the Prophet. Because Ayesha never explicitly showed enmity to Ahlulbayt during the Prophet's life, she remained a Muslim and, hence, in the Nikah of the Prophet. After the Prophet, however, we have narrations that the Prophet gave the fate of his wives to Imam Ali, and Imam Ali did make some decisions in this regard. Sayed has discussed that in episode 197 (kzbin.info/www/bejne/aHraY5WiqJuFm6c) Having said that, the purpose of this entire discussion, as mentioned by Sayed, is to present whether Ayesha is a credible source of Sunnah.

[@Cade-Cade]
