Ask a Shia

[Muslimah]

Bismillah

I consider this thread one of the important thread on this board, and regardless of someone making a reply or not, In sh a Allah, as much as possible I will continue filling up here, as this should turn into an an attempt of accumulating proper knowledge to serve whoever needs to understand, while shall continue to generate good deeds for all Muslims who took part on this thread even after their death.

One of the main ground Shia use in verifying their belief, is hadeethu l kissa, as brother Karbala actually confirmed it in one of the earlier posts. This hadeeth stands as cornerstone for the position they lend Fatima, Ali (Karramallahu wajhu: may Allah Honour his face), Hassan and Hussain may Allah be pleased with all of them. They use the hadeeth for arguing that only those four beloved people are aalu bayt, no one else, and they are fallible..etc.

Here is the hadeeth:

'A'isha reported
that Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) went out one norning wearing a striped cloak of the black camel's hair that there came Hasan b. 'Ali. He wrapped him under it, then came Husain and he wrapped him under it along with the other one (Hasan). Then came Fatima and he took her under it, then came 'Ali and he also took him under it and then said: {Allah only desires to take away any uncleanliness from you, O people of the household, and purify you (thorough purifying)} (reported by Muslim)

How can they resolve then that they discredit our beloved mother Ummel Moemneen Aesha, they actually do not take hadeeth narrated by her. But they take this one?? do they pick and choose??? not only take it, it serves as an essential argument, foundation..etc for an important component of their belief.
