Hadith 23

an Arabian emirate of Amro Bin Hind. And her father Utba sought Abu Sufyan and promised him plentiful wealth, and married him to Hind. She gave birth to Muawiya after three months. Then Abu Sufyan came to Amro Bin Hind and Musafir asked about the state of Hind. He said, ‘I married her’. He fell sick and died’’. [65]
And the Allamah said in (the book) ‘Kashf Al-Haq’ – ‘Muawiya claimed brother-hood of Ziyad and there was a claimant for him called Abu Ubeyd Bani Ilah from Saqeef. Muawiya went ahead upon belying that man along with that Ziyad was born upon his bed, and Muawiya claimed that Abu Sufyan had committed adultery with the mother of Ziyad, and she was with her mentioned husband, and that Ziyad is from Abu Sufyan. End’’. [66]
And the Allamah Al Shirazi said in (the book) ‘Nazhat Al Quloob’ –
‘The children of adultery (bastards) are begotten because the man commits adultery due to his lustful desire, and the child comes out complete; and what happens from the Permissible (marriage) is when the man does to the wife, and for this (reason) Amro Bin Al-Aas and Muawiya Bin Abu Sufyan were from the cunning people’. Then he continued the speech regarding the explanation of their lineages upon what I shall be coming with from the book ‘Rabie Al-Abrar’. Then he increased upon that and said, ‘And from them is Ziyad, son of his father, and regarding him the poet said (couplets), ‘Has it not reached that Muawiya Bin Harb is a penetration from the Yemeni men? Are you getting angry if it is said your father is chaste, and you are please if your father happens to be an adulterer? ’’[67]
Kitab Al Gharaat of Ibrahim Bin Muhammad Al Saqafy, from Yusuf Bin Kuleyb Al Masoudy, from Al Hassan Bin Hammad Al Taie, from Abdul Samad Al Barqy who said, ‘Aqeel came to Ali-asws and he-asws was seated in a courtyard of Masjid Al-Kufa. He said, ‘The greetings be unto you-asws, O Amir Al-Momineen-asws, and Mercy of Allah-azwj! ’ He-asws said: ‘And upon you be the greetings, O Abu Yazeed! ’ Then he-asws turned towards Al-Hassan-asws Bin Ali-asws and said: ‘Arise and lodge your-asws uncle’. He-asws lodged him and returned to him-asws. He-asws said to him-asws: ‘Buy for him a new shirt, and a new cloak, and a new trouser, and new slippers’. Next morning, he came to Ali-asws in the (new) clothes and said, ‘The greetings be unto you-asws, O Amir Al-Momineen-asws! ’ He-asws said: ‘And upon you be the greetings, O Abu Yazeed’. He said, ‘O Amir Al-Momineen-asws! I do not see you-asws having attained anything from the world except this gravel’. He-asws said: ‘O Abu Yazeed! (When) my-asws stipend comes out, I-asws will give it to you’. He departed from Ali-asws to go to Muawiya. When Muawiya heard him, he installed his chairs and sat his gatherers, and referred to him. He ordered with one hundred thousand Dirhams for him. He took possession of these. Muawiya said to him, ‘Inform me about the two armies’. He said, ‘I passed by the army of Amir Al-Momineen Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws, and it was a night like a night of the Prophet-saww, and a day like a day of the Prophet-saww, except that Rasool-Allah-saww wasn’t among the people.
