Seeing as the posted hadith is one which is accepted by salafees, will they accept criticism against some of their sahabah from even the Holy Prophet SAAW, or who knows, they might just change their mind about this hadith being authentic afterall 8-) Just goes to show that not all the 'sahaba' are automatically infallible and perfect as many Sunnis like to think. When muawiyah laeen curses and fights Imam Ali(as), the closest and dearest man to the Holy Prophet SAAW, the member of the Pure Ahlul Bait(as), Sunnis are still perfectly fine with calling him a muslim and a sahabi, that he's promised Jannah regardless of his dirty actions that all but went against Islam. Why don't we hear anything about him being a kaffir from the Sunnis when he curses someone very important in Islam?
Bismillahi wal hamdulillah wassalatu wassalamu ala Rasoolillah, Bukhari :: Book 8 :: Volume 76 :: Hadith 585 Narrated Abu Hazim from Sahl bin Sa'd: The Prophet said, "I am your predecessor (forerunner) at the Lake-Fount, and whoever will pass by there, he will drink from it and whoever will drink from it, he will never be thirsty. There will come to me some people whom I will recognize, and they will recognize me, but a barrier will be placed between me and them." Abu Hazim added: An-Nu'man bin Abi 'Aiyash, on hearing me, said.
"Did you hear this from Sahl?" I said, "Yes." He said, " I bear witness that I heard Abu Said Al-Khudri saying the same, add 'I will say: They are of me (i.e.
My followers). It will be said, 'You do not know what they innovated (new things) in the religion after you left'. I will say, 'Far removed, far removed (from mercy), those who changed (their religion) after me."
Abu Huraira narrated that the Prophet said, "On the Day of Resurrection a group of companions will come to me, but will be driven away from the Lake-Fount, and I will say, 'O Lord (those are) my companions!' It will be said, 'You have no knowledge as to what they innovated after you left; they turned apostate as renegades (reverted from Islam)." "It is said in Bazzaziyyah from Khulasa that a Rafidi if he slanders the Shaykhayn Hadrat Abu Bakr and Hadrat Umar RaDiyallahu 'Anhuma and damns them (swears at them) he is a Kafir. If he only holds Hadrat Ali (RaDiyallahu 'Anhu) superior to him he is a heretic (Mubtadiy)." (Radd al-Muhtar vol.3/p.293) And Ibn Abideen goes on explaining and debating at length about this and other such statements whether the slanderer of Sahaba is Kafir or not. If he is declared a Murtadd; is he executed or left off after Tawba; whether his Tawba is accepted or not and so forth.
He also gives a reference to a book by Mullah Ali Qari who is reported to have opposed the position held as quoted from Khulasa above in it. Ibn Aabideen says, that even Khariji's are not considered as Kaafirs: "It is mentioned in Fath al-Qadeer that the Khawarij who hold that it is permissible to kill Muslims and take away their belongings (loot their maal) and call as Kafirs to the Sahaba, the ruling regarding them among majority of the scholars (Jamhoor) and the people of Hadeeth is that they are considered as rebels (Hukm of Bughat)" (Radd al-Muhtar vol.3/p.293) # What you want to prove here is wrong first try to understand hadeeth properly those words are said by Allah(SWT) to Prophet(S.A.W.) so you are going against who? My friend if you want to follow something you can follow because for whatever deeds you do you are answerable not me or your friends/kith & kin, please stop hatred in your heart and start loving people because every action has a reaction, if you love people they will love you, if you hate they will hate you this society is a kind of mirror so, becareful moreover never dare to do GHUSTAAKI in SHAN-E-RASOOL!
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
