Allah’s revenge upon the enemies of sahaba

There is an ocean of stories and incidents from the ahadith and history that warn us of the consequences of debasing the Auliya-Allah. It is not possible to collect all these stories nor is it our purpose to do so. Below is a compilation of some incidents, something for us to learn and to take heed from. May Allah  protect all the Muslims.

Sa’ad bin Abi Waqaas

It is mentioned in the hadith that, Sa’ad bin Abi Waqaas was mustajaabul dawaat (one whose supplications are always accepted). The Blessed Prophet supplicated for him:

Oh Allah, accept from Sa’ad when he supplicates before you.

Therefore, whoever troubled him and he supplicated against him, suffered dire consequences. Sa’ad was the governor of Kufa in the khilafat of Omar. Some people conspired against him and sent complaints to the khalifah.

Omar sent an investigative team to find out what was happening. They went to each masjid to investigate the accusations against Sa’ad. They found that the complaints or accusations were false. Only in one masjid did they find a man, Abu Sa’da, accusing Sa’ad.

He said, “I swear by Allah he is not fair in the distribution of wealth nor is he just in his decision-making in the courts, and he does not go out in the path of Allah against the kuffar.”

Sa’ad replied, “Oh Allah, if he is a liar, give him a long life, increase his poverty, and put him in fitna .”

The narrator of this story, Abu Umair, says, “I saw this man so old that his eyebrows hung over his eyes. He was poverty stricken and at this old age he would flirt with the girls passing by. When he was asked why this was happening to him, he would reply, “I am a senile, stricken by fitna . The curse of Sa’ad has fallen upon me.”(Bukhari, Muslim )

Finally, this man was killed in the time of Mukhtar, The Liar. ( Ibn Asakar)

Likewise, once a man swore at him. Sa’ad supplicated, “Oh Allah, however you wish, please save me from his tongue and his hands.”

In the battle of Qadisiyah, this man was injured; his hands and tongue were cut off and was deprived of these two blessings for the remainder of his life. (Tabrani, Ibn Asakar, Abu Naeem )

Qais says, “A man began cursing at Ali in a gathering in which Sa’ad was present. When Sa’ad saw his bitterness and hatred towards Ali, he raised his hands in supplication, “Oh Allah, this man is cursing your wali. Show your power before this gathering disperses.”

Qais says, “I swear by Allah, we hadn’t even stood from our spots when this man’s camel took his head inhis mouth and swung him hard against the ground until his skull was crushed and he died. ( Mustadrak Haakim )

Saeed bin Zaid

He was one of the first people to accept Islam and is of the ten sahabi who received glad tidings of jannah within his n the narration of Bukhari and Muslim :

One woman, Arwa bint Uwais, came to the court of Marwan bin Hakam and filed a case against Saeed bin Zaid that he usurped a part of her land. Saeed bin Zaid said, “How could I do such a thing after the hadith I heard from the Blessed Prophet.” Marwan asked, “What did you hear from the Blessed Prophet?” He said, “I heard him say:

Whosoever takes one shibr (the measure of width by the span of a garment or something smaller) of another’s property, he will be shackled to the seven earths.

Marwan said, “I will not ask you for a witness then.” Saeed bin Zaid said, “Oh Allah! If this woman is a liar, blind her and destroy her on her own property.”

A few days later she went blind and died after falling in a well that was on her property.

Muhammad Bin Zaid rahmatullahi alayh says, “I saw this woman; she was blind and would grope and feel as she walked often saying, “The curse of Saeed has fallen upon me. One day she fell in a well on her own property and died.”

Uthman Bin Affan

Abdullah bin Omar says:

One day shortly after the insurrection against Uthman began, he was delivering a khutbah in Masjid Nabawi whena Ghafari man stood up, snatched the stick Uthman held during the khutbahs, and snapped it in half on his knee. It is the qudrat of Allah that one year had not passed that he lost all feeling in his leg. Soon after, he died from the pain in this leg. (Sunan Saeed Bin Sakan)

The Hand of a Liar is Paralyzed Umrah radhiallahu anha says:

I was with Aisha radhiallahu anha when a woman came in clutching a man by his hand. She said, “This man stole my ring”. He replied, “I never did such a thing.” The woman said, “Fine, I will supplicate and all of you say ameen.

O Allah, if I am a liar, paralyze my hand and if it is he who is a liar then paralyze his hand.” The next day the man woke up with a paralyzed hand.

Umrah radhiallahu anha says, “I have performed two or three hajj. I hear the people of Makkah and Madinah say, “O Allah, if I did such and such a thing, please show me a sign like you did for the man who lied about the ring (this became an expression to convince someone that one was truthful).” (Al-Aqubat Ilahiyah, p. 222)

The Slaying of a Hater of Sahaba by Prophetic Order Hayyan Jabari relates:

I was acquainted with a person who always insulted Abu Bakr and Omar. Whenever I rebuked him, he would curse at them even more and I would be forced to leave his company.

Once, as usual, he started cursing them and I stood up in disgust and left. I was very angry and upset that I had not been harsher with him.

I fell asleep that night and saw a dream of the Blessed Prophet with Abu Bakr and Omar sitting on both his sides. I said to the Blessed Prophet “I know a person who always grieves me regarding Abu Bakr and Omar. I stop him yet he is evenmore incited.”

 He (i.e. Hayyan Jabari) says the Blessed Prophet ordered a person sitting nearby, “Go to this man (i.e. the one who cursed Abu Bakr and Omar and kill him.” The man stood up and left.
