Dear AMM/Muhammad, Salaamun Alaikum, I am NOT a scholar but I thought I may add my 2 bits worth of thoughts to this discussion. Guy Fawkes's action is still celebrated to date by Britons. <Guy Fawkes Night (also known as Bonfire Night, Cracker Night, Fireworks Night, Bonny Night) is an annual celebration on the evening of the 5th of November. ... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guy_Fawkes_night> Check Google and you'll get all the details on this historical incident, IF U R unaware of Guy Fawkes.
Society in all centuries has always "BOOED" a leader's bad actions. Today U wouldn't tolerate your PM having a mistress or praising Gorbachev/Iran, would U? You would "Boo" him surely. If U say Hazrat Ali A.S. <your words: "By Allah, I believe Ali is the first Imam to me"> Show me ONE small bad act/mistake Ali has done since he was born, None. Except killing the enemies of Islam in battles....Which is the basis of the treachery, greed, hatred and enmity Ali had to face, loosing his right to khilafa, burning of Bibi Fatimah Zahra's house which ultimately led to her death and the progeny of Ali <the Imams after Ali> facing treachery throughout their time And if one praises one or boos another, there is a VALID reason behind this act. I hope You will CONSIDER THE ABOVE FACTS,, and conclude rightly. As a friendly advice, I suggest you read Dr Jaffer Tijani's books "Then I was Guided ..."
