It was said that al-ShiblI said regarding the verse:<br />

·'!'-:" ... ... ....;' , t ,,, --= ... , ...<br />

fl _;iJ_,....iJ<br />

"And your Lord is going to give you, and you will be<br />

satisfied."<br />

[al-Phupd (93): 5],<br />

"May Mul,iammad () never be pleased if a single member of his<br />

nation remains in Hell. Mul,iammad (:I) will intercede for members<br />

of his nation and then I will intercede so no one remains in Hell."<br />

<strong>Ibn</strong> 'Aqil said: "It is a lie to think that Mul,iammad () does not<br />

approve punishing oppressors. In fact, he () cursed ten categories<br />

of those involved with alcohol."259<br />

As for his claim that he will intercede, and that his intercession<br />

was more encompassing than that of the Prophet; it was a form of<br />

kufr.<br />

<strong>Ibn</strong> 'Aqil said: ''All I can do to fight people of bid' ah is to use my speech and<br />

heart. If I were able to fight them l?J the sword, their blood would have soaked<br />

the ground "<br />

Abii'VAbbas <strong>Ibn</strong> 'Ata' said: "I read the Qur'an and noticed that<br />

Allah never praised a person except after testing him. So I asked<br />

Allah to test me. Days passed, and twenty two members of my family<br />

died, I lost all of my wealth, my wife and children. I lost my mind<br />

and remained for seven years a madman."<br />

This man's lack of knowledge made him ask to be tested. Such a<br />

request implies defiance, which is as horrible a person can get.<br />

2;9 Refer toTirmidhI #1295 and lbn Majah #3381.<br />
