Nasb-and-the-Nawasib

And Ibn Musharraf 1 says:
وواجب ذكركل من صحابته
فال تخض في حروب بينهم وقعت
بالخير والكف عما بينهم شجرا
عن اجتهاد وكن إن خضت معتذرا
It is compulsory to remember all his Ṣaḥābah M with goodness, and to refrain
from delving into what transpired between them.
Hence do not delve into the battles which occurred as a result of their viewpoints
varying. And even if you do then find a plausible excuse. 2
1 Aḥmad ibn ʿAlī ibn Ḥusayn ibn Musharraf al-Wuhaybī al-Tamīmī. A Mālikī scholar who had
composed poetry in abundance. He was a Salafī in belief. He was from Aḥsāʾ. For a while he was a
judge. He has written many poems regarding the oneness of Allah E, in debunking the claims of
the deniers of the attributes of the Ahl al-Sunnah, endorsing the revivalist call and defending it and
praises. All of these can be found in the collection of his poetry. He passed away in 1285 A.H. Some of
his books are: Ikhtiṣār Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim. See: al-Aʿlām 1/182; Muʿjam al-Muʾallifīn 2/32.
