Ibn Asakir in his authority work ‘Tareekh Damishq’ and Imam Dhahabi in ‘Siyar Alam Nubla’(1) records: إلا وان معاوية دعانا إلى أمر ليس فيه عز ولا نصفة فان اردتم الموت رددناه عليه وحاكمناه إلى الله جل وعز بظبا ( 5 ) السيوف وان اردتم الحياة قبلناه واخذنا لكم الرضا فناداه القوم من كل جانب البقية البقية (6) فلما افردوه امضى الصلح Hasan said: “Be informed that Mu’awiya has called us to such a treaty that is neither honourable nor is it based on justice.
If you are ready for death then we will reject this offer, and answer the matter with our swords and leave the matter with Allah. If you like life then we can accept it.
Upon saying this, the calls from all around were’Taqqiyyah, Taqqiyyah’ when the people left Hasan, he made peace” .(2) Ibn Asakir has used to the words ‘Baqqiyyah Baqqiyah’ but he said Dahabi has recorded it them as ‘Taqqiyah Taqqiyah’ in ‘Siyar Alam Nubla’ hence we used it likewise.(3) Imam Nawawi records: فإن قيل فكيف خلع الحسن بن علي نفسه؟ قلنا لعله علم من نفسه ضعفا عن تحملها أو علم أنه لا ناصر له ولا معين فخلع نفسه تقية “If it is been asked as how did Hassan bin Ali oust himself?
We would reply that perhaps he figured out his inability due to weakness, or perhaps he figured out that he had no supporter hence he ousted himself under Taqqiyah”. (4) We appeal to justice! The Taqiyyah mentioned above was the same Taqiyyah that a terrified/tearful Abu Bakr adopted in the cave, that the Prophet (s.a.w.a) adopted at Hudaibya where he had to delete the words ‘Prophet of Allah’ from the treaty doucment. Reply Nine If you see Mu’awiya on my pulpit, kill him (hadeeth) (5).
We read the following hadith in the above cited books: اذا رايتم معاوية على منبري فاقتلوه “If you see Mu’awiya on my pulpit then kill him” Sheikh Muhammad bin Aqeel al-Hadrami (d. 1350 H) said in his book ‘al-Atab al-Jameel ala ahl al-Jarh wa al-Tadeel’(6) that the hadith is Sahih.
