Within Islamic history, there are the Shia sources who extremely exaggerate the corruption of Muawiya and all other companions of the prophet peace be upon them all. To give you such examples, Shias claim historic accuracy of the following: - Omar burned down Fatimah's home. - Omar broke into Fatimah's home with brute force, making the door's nail shoot out toward Fatimah's pregnant belly, breaking her ribs, and causing her miscarriage. - Omar forced Ali to allow him to rape one of Ali's daughters. - Omar dragged Ali through on the dirt to force Ali's allegiance. All of Omar's presumable actions happened under the watchful eye of the very same Ali, the revered all-powerful Shia character. They claim the above (AND MANY MORE) without proof. They convert hearsay, hardly even a rumor, to facts. They have no chain of narrations, nor biographies of the person delivering these information, no proof.

The people didn’t like being forced to forget everything from before when they converted to Islam. It’s also ironic as historically, Muhammad’s family was treated unfairly. Ali and Fatimah as well as Husain and Hassan and the rest of the family were all treated unfairly and you can see that is the case for generations.

Genealogy of Banu Umayyah Abd Shams and Amr (Hashim) were the twin sons of Abd Manaf, the ruler of Makkah. Manaf belonged to the Quraish tribe and was a descendant of Hazrat Ibrahim bin Hazrat Ismail. Abd Shams was a self-centered and enterprising man while Amr was a public figure and was called Hashim because of his generosity. Hashim became the Chief of Makkah after the death of his father Manaf. Hashim lived long and after his death Mutlib younger brother of Hashim took over because Shiba son of Hashim was too young to shoulder the responsibilities as Chief. Later, Mutlib handedover the charge of chief of Kaaba to Shiba who is known as Abd Muttalib. Abd Shams had no children and he bought and adopted a slave child Umayyah. Umayyah's son Sukhar kept a stray woman Fakhta in his house and from her Harb (Abu Sufyan) and Umm Jameel were born. Umm Jameel. was married to Al-Uzza (Abu Lahab) and both of them were condenmed by Allah in Surah Lahab due to their hostility towards Prophet Muhammad (SW). As such, the genealogy of Umayyads is connected with the slave Umayya who remained the enemy of Hashem and this enimety continued in his descendant. Umayyads were called descendants of a Slave on three occasions: 1- On the occasion of the conquest of Makkah, the Holy Prophet said to Abu Sufyan and his followers, "Go away you the descendant of a freed slave, I have forgiven you. 2- In the letter written to Muawiya, Mawla Ali (ES) wrote, "Descendant of a freed slave how can you compare yourself with the emigrants?" (Nahj al-Balagha: Letters to Muawiyah) 3- In Yazid's court, Bibi Zainab(SE) addressing him said, "O child of a freed slave, how dare you tallk to us
