Reply Two This is a fabricated tradition for no Shia or Sunni scholar with the exception of some Nasibis, and only those of this age and none of the past, believe to be authentic. For they all state that Yazeed was a fasiq and a fajir. If, however, he had made these comments, which he did not, then he would have been in clear error. It should be pointed out that neither was Muhammad al Hanafiyya a Prophet or an Imam.

These are not the words of an Imam (as) or Prophet (s) so they mean absolutely nothing in our eyes. Reply Three Abdullah bin Abbas, Abdullah ibn Zubaur and Abdullah ibn Umar and Abdullah bin Hanzala, are all counted by the Ahl'ul Sunnah as Sahaba and they openly condemned Yazeed's character. In addition when our own Imam Husayn (as) condemned Yazeed, then any attempts to present him in a favourable light are worthless to us.

Reply Four We read in al Bidaya wa al Nihaya Volume 8 page 217 under the events of 63 Hijri when a movement began against Yazeed, and the Sahaba began to testify with regards to Yazeed's fasiq status, every person began to say they would revoke the bayya in the same way that they remove a shoe. Soon there was an entire stack of shoes. We can judge the extent to which the Sahaba hated Yazeed, by the fact that compared bayya to Yazeed to a shoe.

It is highly improbable that Muhammad al Hanafiyya would have heaped criticism on the people of Medina for opposing Yazeed. Cursing Yazeed Answering the Fatwa of Abu Hamid Ibn GhazzaliThe lovers of Yazeed have made efforts to exalt Yazeed as a pious and just khalifa who has been the victim of a 1,400 year hate campaign waged by (almost) ALL the scholars and Shia AND Sunni (including Wahabi) Islam. They have thus sought to rewrite history.

In the midst of all these scholars who condemned Yazeed, including imam Ahmed ibn hanbal who issued Takfir on him (see above), the Nasibis found one, and only one 'father figure' of traditional Sunni Islam: Ibn Ghazzali. Now Ghazzali was a Sufi, and all other Sufi sheikhs condemn Yazeed. It is also interesting to note that the Nasibis HATE Ghazzali usually because he was a Sufi.

Suddenly, they forget that hate campaign against the Sufi on this issue, and these filthy Nasibi seek to pass him off as the greatest scholar after the four Fiqh Imams.
