These Nawasib try to legitimize the reign of a leader who came to power my making a peace that he has no support for, and the Prophet (s.a.w.a) used the term for one that referring to a hypocritical agreement. Shah Abdul Haq Dehalvi in his Sharh Mishkat stated: ‘Dakhan’ refers to a treaty involving dishonesty and hypocrisy.

Nawawi said in ‘Sharh Muslim (7) that: ‘Dakhan’ among animals refers to a colour that is black and in this hadith it refers to a heart which is not pure and its impurity doesnt erase. Ibn Atheer stated in ‘Al-Nihayah’ that ‘Hadna Ala Dakhan’ refers to: “A treaty about which hearts are not pure”.

Shah Waliullah Dehalvi in ‘Hujjuthul Balagha’ stated: “Dakhan refers to the peace treaty between Mu’awiya and Hasan” Imam Hasan was the grandson of the Prophet, one of the members under the cloak of purity, the rightful leader and the master of the youth of paradise, He (as) was of pure intention when making peace, unlike Mu’awiya, later on proven by his flagrant violation of the conditions, killing of Imam Hasan (as) and showing happiness over His (as) murder.

Thus, the filthy heart being referred to by the word ‘Dakhan’ was the heart of Muawiyah.
