Who are the adherents of the Nasibi killers of Imam Hussain (as)?

It is quite logical that those that deemed Yazid to be the rightful khalifa were the same individuals that killed Imam Hussain (as). We the Shi’a distance ourselves from Yazid and his supporters. So Ansar.Org, kindly tell us, do you? Do the Ahl’ul Sunnah and Nasibi express hatred towards those that supported Yazid and killed Imam Hussain (as)? Unfortunately this is not the case. Nasibi claiming to adhere to the Sunni faith have written, praised and defended Yazid as a pious man. We have Pakistani Hanafi scholar Mahmood Abadi who wrote "Khilafat Muawiya aur Yazid”- wherein he praised Yazid, deeming the method of ruling used by Umar and Yazid to be the same. Had the matter stopped there then no doubt that would be proof in itself, but what Ansar.Org are hiding from their followers is the fact that their Salaf Imams took ahadith from those that killed Imam Hussain (as). Proof of guilt lies with ‘association’ those with blood on their hands will have no shame / guilt in taking had

And today , since Karbala is wit nessing new calamities, and the mausoleums of Imam Husain (a.s.) and his companions are subjected to destruction and neglect,and visit ors are prevented from reaching that place, it is suitable to familiarise ourselves with Karbala. Two main roads lead the visitor to Karbala. One isfrom the Iraqi capital Baghdad, through 'Al-Mosail', and the other is from the holy city of Najaf. However, either one excites

Tawabun Versus Talha and Zubair

Roza of Imam Husain in Karbala,Iraq The Tawabun have been the target of Nasibi edicts that they killed Imam Hussain [as] by failing to aid him [as] whilst we have evidenced that they were unable to help Imam Hussain [as] for various reasons, but the irony is that the same Nawasib over look the roles of Talha and Zubair whose cases are quite distinct from the other Madinan residents. In this regard: When the water supply was cut-off to Uthman’s residence, how many rebels did these two notable ones fight? [Talha was himself amongst those that prevented water from being delivered to Uthman]. Both of them were not present to aid Uthman at the time of his murder. They did not participate in the funeral prayer of Uthman. After Uthman’s murder, neither possessed the courage to avenge from his killing. Both of them happlily gave bayya to Ali bin Abi Talib [as]. They then adopted Taqiyah in the months that followed, and exhibited no inward or outward desire to seek retribution for the
