THE LINK BETWEEN THE RAWAAFIDH AND THE JEWS


The seventh and eighth centuries passed by and there wasn’t to be found in Al Madeenah except the Rawaafidh, and likewise in Makkah. This was mentioned by Ibn Taymiyyah and Adh Dhahabee and As Sakhaawee, and I believe that there is not to be found an enemy against the Muslims the like of the Rawaafidh and the Jews. So as for the Rawaafidh then their father was ‘Abdullaah bin Saba – and he was a Jew, and Shaikh ul Islaam wrote a chapter in Minhaaj as-Sunnah clarifying the resemblance of the Rawaafidh with the Jews. Yet if there were a Sultaan (ruler) from amongst the Muslims who ruled over the Rawaafidh and the Jews – he would not be safe from their deception/double dealing; and the Rawaafidh know concerning Islaam absolutely nothing.

THE REALITY OF THE EVILS OF WHAT THE RAWAAFIDH SAY


Whomsoever looks into the affairs of the Rawaafidh and their sayings will see that they are sayings which no one would say and no one would practice but the Kuffaar, and the majority (of the people of knowledge) see that they are disbelievers.

WHEN THE TERM RAAFIDAH WAS APPLIED TO THEM


From the time of the revolt of Zaid, the Shi’ah were divided into Raafidah and Zaidiyyah, and when he (Zaid) was asked about Abu Bakr and ‘Umar he invoked mercy upon them both, a people rejected him (rafadahu), and he said to them, “You have rejected me (rafadtumoonee)”. So they were called “ar-Raafidah”, due to their rejection of him. And anyone who did not reject him from amongst the Shi’ah was called a “Zaidiyy” due to their ascription to him.

THE DISTINGUISHING FEATURES OF THE RAAFIDAH


They free themselves from all of the Companions of Allaah’s Messenger (sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam), except a very small number that reaches ten odd...
When the origin and base of their madhhab rests upon ignorance, then they became the greatest of all the factions in ignorance and lying...

The people of knowledge are agreed, by way of transmittal, reporting, and chain of narration that the Raafidah are most lying of all of the factions, and lying amongst them is an ancient matter, and for this reason the Scholars of Islaam used to know that they are distinguished with abundant lying...

 

THE CLAIM THAT THE HEARTS OF THE RAAFIDAH ARE GOOD.


From the greatest of the filth of the hearts is that there should be enmity in the heart towards the best of the Believers and the chiefs of the Awliyaa of Allaah after the Prophets.
