why the wearing of black clothes,

Macavelius:

why the wearing of black clothes,

wearing of black clothes is symbolic of mourning,grief and sadness as we remember the tragedy of Karbala that befell Imam Hussain (as),his household and loyal followers (Shia) in the hands of forces loyal to Yazid Ibn Muawiya (la).

mir-ul-mu’minin said:
وقال أمير المؤمنين عليه السلام فيما علم أصحابه: ” لا تلبسوا السواد فإنه لباس فرعون “.
“Do not wear black clothes, that is the dress of Pharaoh”
(Source: Al-Shia.com, http://www.al-shia.com/html/ara/books/faqih/faqih-1/a41.html)

Imam As Sadiq was asked about pray in the black clothes, he said:
وسئل الصادق عليه السلام ” عن الصلاة في القلنسوة السوداء؟ فقال: لا تصل فيها فإنها لباس أهل النار
“Don’t pray in it, that is dress of people of fire”

Again it seems the words of their Imams means nothing to them!

please can you give us the references to those sayings so we can read them and analyse them and truly know what they mean and their context and importantly if they were uttered by our Imams?

the links you gave are of a forum.there is no reference.

you are really obsessed with us Shia.may Allah guide.you will surely see he truth inshaAllah.

In Tarikh Baghdad Volume 13 page 373 we read that:

"Sunni Imam of jurisprudence Abu Hanifa said that Iblis and The Great Truthful one Abu Bakr were equal in Iman".

"Vedaxcool",you have ignored this in two places.why?

[size=18pt]“No one bears greater hatred towards us [the Ahlel Bayt] than those who claim to love us.”[/size] [Abdullâh al-Mâmaqânî, Miqbâs al-Hidâyah vol. 2 p. 414 (Mu’assasat Âl al-Bayt li-Ihyâ’ at-Turâth, Beirut 1991) quoting from Rijâl al-Kashshî.]




[size=18pt]Nahjul Balagha, Sermon 126

Ali says:

“With regard to me, two categories of people will be ruined, namely he who loves me too much and the love takes him away from rightfulness, and he who hates me too much and the hatred takes him away from rightfulness. The best man with regard to me is he who is on the middle course. So be with him and be with the great majority of Muslims because Allah’s hand of protection is on keeping unity. You should beware of division because the one isolated from the group is a prey to Satan just as the one isolated from the flock of sheep is a prey to the wolf. Beware! Whoever calls to this course [of sectarianism], kill him, even though he may be under this headband of mine[/size]

1st Ashura Mourning Ceremony in Egypt with the presence of Shia and Sunni Muslims


(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - Ashura mourning ceremony which was held on December 6 for the first time in Egypt was interrupted by Salafis.

According to Altawafoq website, the ceremony was attended by Shia and Sunni Muslims of the region.

Ras Al-Hussein (AS) in Cairo was covered with black veils and black flags were set up at the place where Egyptian Shia leaders such as Mohammad Al-Duraini, general secretary of Ahl-ul-Bayt (AS) Foundation welcomed the participants.

Addressing the program, Ahmad Sobh, a Sunni scholar said that Muslims today should seek their unity in Imam Hussein’s uprising believing that following the Imam’s objectives would lead them reach the unity.

He added that the current revolutions are all made against Yazids of the present time and called upon Al-Azhar, Najaf Seminary School and Saudi Arabia to take steps in line with Muslims’ unity.
