So what about Ghadir? Let's hear the context for that speech (which has been transmitted through hundreds of chains of narration, both Sunni and Shia). Will you say that the prophets stopped (even Sunni's agree on this low number) over 10,000 people in the middle of the desert to tell them that "Ali is your friend"! when this fact had already been established and his "brotherhood with Ali (a.s.)" was already well known. How easily our Sunni brothers disregard the clear and direct words of the Messenger of Allah (s.w.a.). "...my brother 'Ali as my vizier." "O my people! This 'Ali is my brother, my successor and my caliph amongst you. Listen to him and obey him.'' 'Ali, the son of Abu Talib, is my brother and my wasiyy (successor) and my caliph, and the Imam after me." "Aliyyun wa shi'atuhu humu 'l-fa'izun. "'Ali and his party (Shi `ah) will be the triumphant ones." [2] Say (Oh Prophet): "I do not ask of you a wage for this, except love for (my) relatives." (ash-Shura, 42:23 ) Abu Na'im narrates that the Prophet addressed the Ansar and said: "Shall I guide you to something which, if you grasp it after me, you will never go astray?" They said: "Yes, O Messenger of Allah ! " He said: "It is 'Ali: love him with the love (you have) for me, and respect him with the respect (you have) for me. For God has ordered me through Gabriel to tell you this." Hilyatu 'l-awliya', vol.1, p.63. Love for and disobedience to a person cannot live in the same heart. |

What happened with the fantastic 100 000 people shia used tel people? have you ever toughed about why we never see this as appointment of caliph? because we know and follow the historical context of this sayings. Even Ali(ra) never made any reference to this event. The question is why all the sunni refernce you gave non of them interpreted as appointment? Its because they know why it was said. As i said many times before any one can make his own history if he removes the context. I know your mullahs never gives you the complete hadith when they want to prove you something. They only cut the part they like. 90% of the references you gave gives you detail explanation. her i will quote for you the words shia like so much and the context ayatollahs omit. "The Messenger of Allah sent to Yemen two divisions of army, one under the command of Ali ibn Abu Talib and the other under the Command of Khalid ibn Walid, and said to them: Ali shall command both the divisions if they meet and eacg will be in charge of his division when seperate. We encountered the tribe of Banu Zubaydah of Yemen and we fought desperately. The Muslims gained victory over the polytheists and we killed their warriors and made their women and children prisoners of war. 'Ali set aside a female prisoner of war for himself. Khalid wrote a letter to the Messenger of Allah, Allah's blessings and peace be upon him and his posterity, informing him of the affair and gave me the letter to convey it. When I came to the Prophet, Allah's blessings and peace be upon him and his posterity, I delivered the letter, which he persued. I noticed the signs of anger in his face and submitted: O Messenger of Allah I beg your pardon. You sent me with a person and commanded me to obey him in bringing this letter. The Messenger of Allah, Allah's blessings and peace be upon him and his posterity, then said: Do not reprove him for he is from me and I am from him and he is your master after me, and he repeated it again." her is all the authentic references that mention this context with different wordings Musnad, Ahmad Hanbal, vol. 4 p. 438 Caption: The Tradition of Imran - Tabari, The Last Years of the Prophet, IX, p. 111 - Ibn Ishaq, The Life of Muhammad, p. 650 - Musnad, Ahmad Hanbal, vol. 5 p. 356 - Mustadrak, Hakim, vol. 3 p. 110 - Nasai, p. 17 - Mustadrak, Hakim, vol. 11 p. 11, al Dhahabi in his Talkhis al Mustadrak, - Kanz al Ummal, Muttaqi al Hindi, vol. 6 p. 400 -Muhammad, His Life based on the earliest sources The only way shia can prove something is by omitting, hiding, concocting and lying. Shia likes to quote the exaggerated and fabricated hadith about ghadir khum and then gives references to all authentic references that gives the true wordings and context. |

" he is your master after me" Are you reading what you are posting? This hadith is NOT the third time, it is only part of it. I am still waiting for your attempt to discredit the famous even of Ghadir Khum (or do you deny that it happened all together). By the way, Imam Ali (a.s.) on many, many occassions mentions his appointment by the Prophet at Ghadir, however, all of these occassions are conviently missing from the collections that our Sunni brothers read. It is curious that Imam Ali (a.s.) "never mentioned" his appointment at Ghadir, however, Abu Harirah seemed to have had a "better memory".

No wonder nothing is getting your head. The event of ghadir and khum is historical fact and no one is discrediting it. The problem with you is you dont want to read the context which explainers why he said this. The prophet was not making announcement of his successor it was in regard to certain unjustified complaints against Ali(ra) read the words in its context.

Even the prophets(saw) words shows that its not about caliphat because no where is the word calip mentioned. It is only shia who interpret the word mowali to mean caliph.

So is someone is appointed by the Holy Messenger (a.s.) as your Mowali, then you can ignore him but if the people elect a Caliph then he must be obeyed? That sounds like the logic of George Bush not Islam.
