Hadith 23

t of people are inclining towards them, due to their kinship from Rasool-Allah-saww, and there is nothing in this letter of their compliments, or as is said, ‘And when the people hear this, I shall inclined towards them’, and they used to be of the extended tongues and proven arguments than they are today’. Al-Mo’tazid withheld and did not respond any answer to him, and did not order with anything regarding the letter after that; and from a summary of the letter after the preceding with praise of Allah-azwj and extolling upon Him-azwj and the Salat upon His-azwj Rasool-saww: –
As for after, a group of the general public ended up to the commander of the faithful with what is upon him of the doubts which had entered them in their religion, and corruption they had face in their beliefs, and there is a group whose personal desires had overcome upon them, and their tongues are speaking with it upon without any understanding nor any report. They have emulated (done Taqleed of) the straying guides in it without any proof nor any insight, and they are opposing the emphasized Sunnah to the innovated whims. Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Said: And who is more straying than the one who follows his own whims without a Guidance from Allah? Surely Allah does not Guide the unjust people [28: 50]. Being outside from the community and accelerating towards the Fitna, and in favour of the sectarianism, and scattering of the words, and manifesting the friendship of the one whom Allah-azwj had Severed the friendship from, and Severed the infallibility from him, and Expelled him from the nation, and Obligated the Curses upon him; And reverence to the one who Allah-azwj had Belittled his right, and Weakened his matter, and Weakened his corner from the clan of Umayya, the accursed three, and opposition to the one Allah-azwj had Saved by it from the destruction, and Conferred the Favours upon them, from the People-asws of the House of Blessings and Mercy, and Allah Specialises by His Mercy the one He so Desires to; and Allah is with the Mighty Grace [2: 105]. So, revere the commander of the faithful what has ended up to him from that, and he views the neglecting of his denial as a problem upon him in the religion, and corruption of the one whom Allah-azwj has Collared with his command from the Muslims, and carry of what Allah-azwj has Obligated upon him, from straightening the adversaries, and insight of the ignorant ones, and establishing the argument upon the doubters, and spreading the hand upon the obstinate ones. And the commander of the faithful informs you, community of Muslims, that Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic is His-azwj Praise, when He-azwj Sent Muhammad-saww with His-azwj Religion, he-saww proclaimed his-saww matter beginning with his-saww family and his-saww clan. He-saww called them to his-saww Lord-azwj and warned them, and gave them glad tidings, and advised to them, and guided them. And the one who had responded to him-saww and ratified his-saww words, and followed his-saww instructions, were a small number from the clan of his-saww father-as, from between the believers with what he-saww had come with from his-saww Lord-a
