Some people question the following excerpt from Nahjul Balagha: “our start was we met the people of the Levant, and apparently we have one God, one call for Islam and we are not better than them in our faith in Allah and His Messenger. It is all the same except the issue of Othman’s killing from which we are innocent”. Accordingly, Muawya believed Imam Ali’s saying. What is your opinion?
Answer
In the name of Allah, be advised, my son, reflecting Imam Ali’s (PBUH) saying leads to the knowledge that Imam Ali (PBUH) admits what Muawya and his followers say publically, but he (PBUH) does not want to judge them with Kufur as long as they say “there is no God but Allah, and Muhammad is his messenger”. On the other hand, Imam Ali (PBUH) did not judge the followers of Muawya as devoted people in Islam. Allah is the all Guide.
