ABU TALIB The faithful of Quraysh<br />

Rahman or ibn Abu Harb who they were! 4. We didnt find any mention of al-Hakam bin<br />

Sadaqa in Mizanul Itidal. We leave the weak series of the untrusted narrators aside in<br />

order not waste the time and come back to the very letter of an-Nafs az-Zakiyya that<br />

have disturbed ibn Abul Hadeeds mind. Also we dont want to stop at the differences<br />

between the wordings of the letter mentioned by ibn Abul Hadeed and each of at-Tabari,<br />

ibnul Atheer and al-Khudhari.[315] We became astonished at this proudness! Would<br />

anyone be proud of being the son of the worst of the evil people or the best of the evil<br />

people? Would be there any good in the evil or among the evil people? Would be there a<br />

master or any goodness among the people of Hell? If he was the son of the master of<br />

people of Hell-if there would be a master in Hell-so no one would be the master there<br />

unless he was the worst of the evil people, who definitely would get the severest<br />

punishment. This contradicted the fabricated tradition ascribed to the Prophet (s) that<br />

Abu Talib would be the least tortured one among the people of Hell. According to their<br />

thought, this was the utmost intercession the Prophet (s) could do for his uncle! What an<br />

intercession it was! Even the stingiest and the meanest of people would be ashamed<br />

towards this intercession, so how about the great Prophet, who was chosen by <strong>All</strong>ah to<br />

complete the nobilities? Did such proudness come out except of an insane man? It was<br />

but a confession of the mean position, which would never agree with the situation of<br />

Muhammad an-Nafs az-Zakiyya, who claimed to be the caliph and resisted the king<br />

sitting on the throne? If it was so, then he objected himself in this letter! Therefore we<br />

found among what was mentioned as the answer of al-Mansoor to the letter this saying:<br />

You pretend that you are the son of the least punished one among the people of Hell<br />

and you are the son of the best of the evil there is no littleness in unbelieving in <strong>All</strong>ah<br />

nor lightness in His torment. There is no good one among the evil people. The believer,<br />

who believes in <strong>All</strong>ah, has not to be proud of Hell. You will know that: (and they who act<br />

unjustly shall know to what final place of turning they shall turn back. Quran 26:227)[316]<br />

This answer was suitable to that passage ascribed to an-Nafs az-Zakiyya. It would be the<br />

definite irrefutable answer if the letter and the answer were said by those, to whom they<br />

were ascribed, or fabricated and ascribed to them! As for the saying of an-Nafs az-<br />

Zakiyya: I am the son of the worst of the evil people mentioned by ibn Abul Hadeed,<br />

which made us argue with him, it would never be applied to Abu Talib at all because the<br />

meaning of this statement would be that there was no one more evil than Abu Talib<br />

among his people and at his time at least! Otherwise the statement meant continuity; that
