What the Shi'ah do on 'Ashoora'!
THE PROPHET (SAW) SAID HE WHO SLAPS HIS CHEEKS, TEARS HIS CLOTHES AND FOLLOWS THE WAYS AND TRADITIONS OF THE DAYS OF IGNORANCE IS NOT ONE OF US.
-BUKHARI 1294,
What the Shi'ah do on 'Ashoora' of beating their chests, slapping their cheeks, striking their shoulders with chains and cutting their heads with swords to let the blood flow are all innovations that have no basis in Islam.
These things are evils that were forbidden by the Prophet (SAW), who did not prescribe for his ummah to do any of these things or anything similar to them to mark the death of a leader or the loss of a martyr, no matter what his status.
During the lifetime of Prophet (SAW), a number of senior Sahaabah were martyred and he mourned their loss, but he did not do any of the things that these people do. If it was good, he would have done it before us. nor was it done by any of his companions.
Ibn Katheer (Rahmathullah) said:
Al-Husayn (R.A) was a devoted worshipper, and a courageous and generous man. But there is nothing good in what the Shi'ah do of expressing distress and grief. His father was better than him and he was killed, but they do not take his death as an anniversary as they do with the death of al-Husayn. His father was killed on a Friday as he was leaving the mosque after Fajr prayer, on the seventeenth of Ramadaan in 40 AH.
'Uthmaan (R.A) was killed when he was besieged in his house during the days of al-Tashreeq in Dhu'l-Hijjah of 36 AH, with his throat cut from one jugular vein to the other, but the people did not take his death as an anniversary.
'Umar ibn al-Khattaab (R.A) was killed as he was standing in the mihraab, praying Fajr and reciting Quraan, but the people did not take his death as an anniversary. People did not take even the death of Abu Bakr al-Siddeeq (R.A) as an anniversary of mourning.
The Prophet Muhammad (SAW) is the leader of the sons of Adam in this world and the Hereafter, and Allah (SWT) took him to Him as the Prophets died before him, but no one took the dates of their deaths as anniversaries on which they do what these ignorant Raafidis do on the day that al-Husayn (R.A) Was killed.
End quote from al-Bidaayah wa'l-Nihaayah (8/221).
The Prophet Muhammad (SAW) said,
"..The truest word is the Book of Allah (SWT) and the best guidance is the guidance of Muhammad (SAW). The most evil matters in religion are those that are newly invented (Bida'h), for every newly invented matter is an innovation. Every innovation is misguidance, and every misguidance is in the Hellfire."
Source. Sunan An-Nasai 1578, Sahih by Albani
The Prophet Muhammad (SAW) said,
"..Whoever lives after me will see many conflicts. You must adhere to my Sunnah and the Sunnah of the righteous, guided successors. Hold firmly to it as if biting with your molar teeth. Beware of newly invented matters (Bidah), for every new matter is an innovation and every innovation is misguidance."
