The Islamic Ruling on Shi`ites
Page 2 of 4
Who are the people of the middle course & the great majority (of Muslims) as Imam Ali said in his
sermon, Read Imam Ali's words and then look to the three groups and you will find the answer!
• Imaam Hasan bin Ali (r.a.)
'Aasim bin Damrah said to Hasan bin Ali that the Shi`ites claim that Ali will come back. Then Imaam
Hasan said: "Those liers lied. If we had known that, his wives would not have married (other men)
nor would we have shared his heritage."
• Imaam Abu Hanifah
Early Scholars
It was reported that often Abu Haneefah used to repeat the following statement about the Shi`ites,
"Whoever doubts whether they are disbelievers has himself committed disbelief."
• Imaam al-Shaafi`e
On one occasion al-Shaafi`i said concerning the Shi`ites, "I have not seen among the heretics a
people more famous for falsehood than the Raafidite Shi`ites." [Ibn Taymeeyah, Minhaaj as-
Sunnah an-Nabawiyyah, 1/39] On another occasion he said, "Narrate knowledge from everyone
you meet except the Raafidite Shi`ites, because they invent Hadeeths and adopt them as part of
their religion." [Ibid, p. 38]
• Imaam Maalik
Once Maalik was asked about them and he replied, "Do not speak to them nor narrate from them,
for surely they are liars." [Minhaaj as-Sunnah, 1/37] During a class of Imaam Maalik, it was
mentioned that the Raafidite Shi`ites curse the Sahaabah. In reply, he quoted the Quranic verse,
"Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah and those with him are harsh with the
disbelievers and gentle among themselves. So that the disbelievers may become
enraged with them." He then said, "Whoever becomes enraged when the Sahaabah are
mentioned is one about whom the verse speaks." [Tafseeer al-Qurtubee, Soorah al-Fath;
Editor’s note: That is, anyone who is enraged by the mention of the Sahaabah is a
dsibeliever, because the verse says, "…the disbelievers may become enraged with them
(Sahaabah)."]
Imaam Ibn Hazm quoted a report with an isnad going back to Hishaam ibn ‘Ammaar, who said: "I
heard Maalik ibn Anas say: "Whoever curses Abu Bakr should be whipped, and whoever curses
‘Aa’ishah should be killed." He was asked, "Why do you say that concerning (the one who curses)
‘Aa’ishah" He said, Because Allah says concerning ‘Aa’ishah, (may Allah be pleased with her):
"Allah forbids you from it (slander her) and warns you not to repeat the like of it
forever, if you are believers." (al-Noor 24:17)’"
• Abu Bakr ibn al-‘Arabi
Abu Bakr ibn al-‘Arabi said: "Because the people who slandered ‘Aa’ishah accused a pure and
innocent person of immorality, then Allah exonerated her. So everyone who accuses her of that of
which Allah has stated she is innocent is rejecting what Allah says, and everyone who rejects what
Allah says is a kaafir. This is the opinion of Maalik, and the matter is very clear to those who have
insight."
