Are Shi’ah really the descendants of ahl-ul-bayt?

  For Allah and then For History  (Exposing Shiah)  by Assayyid Hussayn al-Musawi Chapter two Are Shi'a really the descendants of Ahl-ul-Bayt?  It is a common belief among us (Shi'a) that we are the only group privileged with Ahl-ul-Bayt. This is because our ideology, as we believe, is based on the love of Ahl-ul-Bayt and the denial of the prophet's companions, on top of whom are the three caliphs and 'Aishah Bint Abu-Bakr, because of their stance towards Ahl-ul-Bayt. Based on this we befriend the common people (Sunnis) or bear hostility against them.  Furthermore, It is deeply rooted in our beliefs that the companions were unfair to Ahl-ul-Bayt and that they shed their blood  made their blood and sanctity violable.   In addition, the Sunnis declared themselves enemies of Ahl-ul-Bayt and opposed them.

Sunnis attribute to him the founding of Shi'ism to repulse people away from them and from the ideology of Ahl-ul-Bayt.  I once asked Muhammad al-Hussain 'al-Kashef al-Gheta' about Abdullah-bin-Saba'.  He said: "Ibn Saba' is a fabled character, whom Abbasides and Umayyads made up out of envy for Ahl-ul-Bayt. A wise person should not mind thinking of this character."  However, I found in his well-known book Asl al-Shia wa Osouloha (The Origin of Shiism and its Fundamentals) what indicates the existence of this person, as he wrote: "As for Abdullah-bin-Saba' to whom they attribute Shi'ism, all Shi'a books curse him and renounce him."  There is not a shadow of a doub

For Allah and Then For History (1) (Exposing Shiah) by Assayyid Hussayn al-Musawi

For Allah and then For History  (Exposing Shiah)  by Assayyid Hussayn al-Musawi  INTRODUCTION بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم All praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and prayers and peace be upon our trustworthy prophet, his virtuous family and those who followed them in goodness until the day of recompense.  Muslims know that the ultimate end of this life is death after which each and everyone of us is either sent to paradise or to the hellfire and there is no shadow of doubt regarding that every Muslim aspires to be among the paradise dwellers. Therefore, one should seek the pleasure of his Lord and should avoid every act that Allah forbade and whatsoever would lead to Allah's wrath and punishment and for these reasons we see that every Muslim is keen on obeying his Lord and seeking His closeness especially if he was from the righteous.  As we all know, there are many paths and many temptations in life and the wise is the one who chooses the path leading to paradise, even if it is dif
