Hasan Zaidi 🐍

(I'm not a Shia) Muawiya never meant well. He was the first poison in Islamic governance. he started abusing on Ali (as) on mimbar e rusool. He martyred so many just for following Ali (as) He was an enemy of Ahlulbayt.. And most likely he Ordered the killing of imam Hassan (as)+

Shias and some gullible sunnis despise the name Yazid but will never tell you that at least 3 martyrs of Karbala were named Yazid.

Can’t wait to name my sons: Muʿāwiyah, Yazīd, Marwān, ʿAbd Al-Malik, Walīd, and ʿUbayd Allāh.

Muawiya (RA) was a genius, a visionary, and a guy who despite his big initial errors meant well and redeemed himself with his governance. Ali (RA) and Hassan (RA) were, despite all this, just better than him.

This report does not originate from an early shia source. The wording traces back to mainstream sunni historical works long before Nahj al-Balagha was compiled. Al-Sharif al-Radi, the compiler of Nahj al-Balagha, died in 406 AH. He never claimed that everything he collected came exclusively from shia sources. He compiled sermons, letters, and sayings from various earlier works. The very same text is found in earlier sunni sources, with the same wording, long before al-Radi. For example, it is reported by Ibn Qutaybah al-Dinawari (d. 276 AH) in al-Imamah wa al-Siyasah, centuries before Nahj al-Balagha was compiled. The matn is essentially identical: "Those who pledged allegiance to Abu Bakr, Umar and Uthman pledged allegiance to me on the same terms... Consultation belongs to the Muhajirun and Ansar..." Quoting Nahj al-Balagha here does not suddenly make it a uniquely shia proof-text. The narration is circulating through sunni historical transmission as well. And most importantly, Nahj al-Balagha was never intended to be a hadith collection or a book of theology in the first place. Al-Sharif al-Radi (d. 406 AH) was primarily a poet, litterateur, and scholar of arabic eloquence, not a muhaddith compiling chains of transmission like al-Kulayni, al-Saduq, or al-Tusi. In the introduction to Nahj al-Balagha, he explicitly states that his purpose was to gather the most eloquent sermons, letters, and sayings attributed to Imam Ali (a) in order to showcase the unmatched beauty, wisdom, and rhetoric of his speech. That is why he often omits chains of narration altogether. He never claimed that every text he included came exclusively through shia transmission, nor did he present the book as a comprehensive creed or a source where every report is automatically authenticated. Secondly, even if one accepts the letter's authenticity as per the sunni standards, Imam Ali (a) is arguing against muawiyah using principles muawiyah himself claimed to accept, not laying down a theological doctrine of how legitimate leadership is established. Arguing from an opponent's premises is a well-known method of debate. If Imam Ali (a) truly believed the first three were divinely appointed and their method of selection was the legitimate basis of authority, then that would directly contradict numerous explicit statements from the Prophet (s) regarding his own position, authority, and succession. The letter therefore cannot be read in isolation from the rest of the evidence.

Sunnis claim to follow the sunnah of Rasullulah saw, but I've never seen one of them cry for Hussain like the prophet did. Why is that? What sunnah are they following exactly?

For Shia Muslims, grief is baked right into the foundation of their theology. Other groups don't really have a place for mourning in their core beliefs, missing out on the unique bond it builds. This shared history of sorrow creates a deep, permanent sense of identity and resilience. When you look at how things have played out globally over the last few years, the incredible social and strategic power behind that collective mindset is on full display.
