(Unfortunately) the false hadiths of the Umayyads about Hazrat Abu Talib (a.s.) were published all over the world,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr;\">\n\u201cIf the infallible Imams (a.s.) did not say hadiths about the virtue of Hazrat Abu Talib (a.s.), the issue of the infidelity of Hazrat Abu Talib (a.s.) would be institutionalized. According to the narrations of the Infallible Imams (a.s.), Hazrat Abu Talib (a.s.) is not only a Muslim but also one of God\u2019s friends,\u201d added the religious researcher.<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr;\">\n\u201cDespite the oppression against them, the AhlulBayt (a.s.) tried to remember Abu Talib (a.s.), and defend him against doubts (raised by the enemies). These narrations caused some Sunni scholars to use the prophetic hadiths to write books in defense of the AhlulBayt (a.s.),\u201d he said, referring to the oppression against the AhlulBayt (a.s.) throughout history.<\/p>\n<p style=\"direction: ltr;\">\n\u201cHazrat Abu Talib (a.s.) was able to gather both the Bani Hashim and the infidels and told them that their common belief is the Prophet Muhammad (p.b.u.h). The wise leadership of Abu Talib caused even the infidels to defend the Holy Prophet (p.b.u.h),\u201d he mentioned.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The prominent Yemeni mustabsir said, \u201cMany hadiths have been narrated from the Infallible Imams (a.s.) about Abu Talib (a.s.), and the AhlulBayt (a.s.) emphasized the virtue of Hazrat Abu Talib (a.s.).\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":315335,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[56,2648,2650,54],"tags":[4884],"class_list":["post-315338","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-conferences-events","category-international-conference-of-abu-talib-a-s","category-joint-conferences","category-news","tag-hazrat-abu-talib-a-s"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/315338","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=315338"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/315338\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":402801,"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/315338\/revisions\/402801"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/315335"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=315338"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=315338"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=315338"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
