In
the name of God the Beneficent the Merciful
THE
BASIS OF HAZRAT ALI's ENMITY
GENERAL
:-
The holy Prophet said ,
"
Ya Ali Hubboka Eman wa Bughzo ka
Nefaq "
Ali
is the one who is praised by Allah and Rasool (s). The whole life of hazrat
Ali is just the true replica of Sunat-e-Nabvi and is100% in accordance
with the
teaching of the Holy Quran. From the battle of Badr ( the first holy war
of Islam ) till the conquest of Makkah the sword of Ali proved as the
dignity and glory of Islam.
BUT
,
In spite
of all the above facts a large and dominated majority of the people
who claimed to be Muslims and the followers of Holy Prophet proved as the worst
enemies of Hazrat Ali.
*

* All of
Ali's
sons were killed !
* Ali's Daughters
, bareheaded and unveiled were taken to the bazar !
* The
holy race of Ali was either killed with sword or was poisoned !
* Till the present date, the followers of Ali are crushed and killed !
After all
WHY
??????
Let
us search the basis of deep rooted enmity of Hazrat Ali from the HISTORY.
When we look
deep in the history we find two front of Ali's enmity. The external front
and the internal front. In this article we will take both the fronts one
by one.
PART-
I :- THE EXTERNAL FRONT.
The preaching of
Islam started from Dawat-e-Zulasheera when Hazrat Ali arranged for dawat and
the forty top leaders of Quriesh were invited . At the end of dinner the
Holy prophet stood up and said that I have come from God for the guidance of human
kind, If any one help me in this regard he will be my successor among my
followers ( Ummah ) . No one got up except Ali ( a boy of thirteen years )
and he said I will help you O' messenger of God. This was the first time
when Ali came into the observation of the enemies of Islam. For the first
time the sharp angry eyes of the mushrekeen were focused on
Ali. This was the start of Ali's enmity on external
front.
As
the preaching of Islam moved forward the Ali remained with holy prophet as
a shadow , helping and protecting the holy prophet against all kinds of
enemy's threats. Due to the Ali's glorious contribution
and efforts for the preaching of Islam the hatred against Ali
among the mushrakeen kept increasing day by day.
In Sheb-e-Abu Taleb for the continuous three years Hazrat Abu Taleb and his
sons specially Hazrat Ali protected the Holy Prophet at the cast of
their lives and due to this act of scarify the hatred against
Ali and his father, Hazrat Abu Taleb , deepened more in the heart of
mushrekeen .
At the night of Hijrah when the mushrakeen as per their plan reached
nearest to their success all of sudden badly failed when they saw Hazrat
Ali on the bed of Holy Prophet. The enmity and the hatred of mushrekeen against
Hazrat Ali increased due to the failure of
their plan.
When the Holy Prophet reached safely to the city of Madina and Islam
started expanding successfully the mushrekeen decided to crush Islam with
force which resulted in three bloody wars . In the first war the mushrekeen
were
badly defeated and their leaders were killed. In this war
Hazrat Ali was the prominent hero of Islam . After the battle of Badr the mushrekeen
again attacked on the city of Madina to take revenge of Badr.
When in the beginning of war Muslims repelled the mushrekeen back, but due
to some tactical mistake the battle went in the favor of mushrekeen and
they successfully attacked on the Muslim and were able to disperse the Muslims
ranks and the Holy Prophet was left in the most unsafe and dangerous
position in the battle field. He was Ali , who made the most strong and
unbreakable protective ring around the Holy Prophet and repelled the mushrekeen
back and turned the defeat into victory. This great blow on the
face of mushrekeen increased the enmity of Ali in their heart .
In the light of experience of two battles Abu Sufiyan ( Head of mushrekeen )
reached to the conclusion that they could only win the war if they could
manage some great fighter who could face Ali , so he put all his efforts
to search someone who could fight with Ali and after his continuous struggle
he found out the most famous fighter of Arabs who was famous to fight against
one thousand people , he was Omer Ibn-e-Abdul Woodh and with the result
the war of khandaq took place.
When Hazrat Ali in shape of total Iman , came out to face Omer Ibne Abdul
Woodh ' the Total Kufr , The eyes of Iman and the Kufr were focused
on the battle field and the breath were stuck in the chests. In a such critical
point, all of a sudden the sword of Ali waved with Takbeer and
the head of Kufr was cut and Islam was blessed with glorious success. With
the result of this glorious success all hopes of mushrekeen were buried for
ever which resulted more deepening of roots of enmity in the hearts of mushrekeen and they
became the worst enemies of Hazrat Ali.
After the defeat in khandaq the mushrekeen were assured that they can not
defect Islam by force as long as Ali is there therefore Ali was considered
a great hurdle in the way of mushrekeen.
In the war of Khyber when the war front was changed from mushrekeen to
Jews on this new front again when everyone badly failed to win the war , he
was only Ali who came forward with glorious success and defeated the Jews
completely and by this a new enemy was added in the list of Ali's
enemies.
In the 8th Hijra when the city of Macca fell in the hands of Islam and the
Holy Prophet entered in the Haram where all the defeated and helpless mushrekeen
of Macca saw Ali on the shoulders of the Holy Prophet
breaking there Gods ( Idols ). Now what the human nature says that those mushrekeen
(who are going to be Muslims now, not by sincerity but due to
the prevailing situation as there was no suitable option except to accept
Islam ) will they love or hate Ali , who was the root cause of all
their defeats.
This was the external front where Ali made a lot of enemies (in the love
of Allah and Rasool), who
entered in Islam after the fall of Macca.
In the next sub topic we will take up the internal front of Hazrat Ali's enemies.
