May Allah forgive him and have mercy upon him. Truly in times of real hardship he at least stood with his brothers in faith. And also this story showed us how many people have to make tawba from their Buhtān they made against him in claiming he was secretly doing taqiya.

Ibn Taymiyya holds that Sunni Muslims MUST favor Shia over Jews and Christians. "Ibn Taymiyyah, may Allah have mercy on him, was asked about a man who prefers the Jews and Christians over the Shia. "He replied: Praise be to God. Whoever believes in what Muhammad ﷺ brought, is better than everyone who disbelieves in it. And if that believer endorses some kind of heresy - whether it is the heresy of the Kharijites, the Shiis, the Murji’a, the Qadariyya, or others – [It must be kept in mind that] the Jews and Christians are known to be disbelievers in Islam with necessity. But the heretic, if he considers himself to agree with the Messenger ﷺ, rather than disagreeing with the Messenger, then [that heretic] is not a disbeliever (kafir) in the Messenger. And if it is assumed that [the heretic] disbelieves, then his disbelief is not like the disbelief of a person who considered the Messenger ﷺ to be a liar [e.g., the disbelief of a Jew or Christian]" (Majmu al-Fatawa)
