The vulgarity of the Rebels
On another occasion, regarding the vulgarity and impropriety of those that murdered Hazrat Uthman (ra), Hazrat Musleh-e-Maud (ra) states:
“Just look at what they did; they martyred Hazrat Uthman (ra) and whilst he was lying in a pool of blood, writhing in agony, the murderers were passing vulgar remarks about the wife of Hazrat Uthman (ra) by commenting about her body. Their actions then became even worse…” i.e. not only towards Hazrat Uthman’s (ra) wife, but worse still; Hazrat Musleh-e-Maud (ra) states that they began to pass vulgar remarks about Hazrat Aisha (ra). Hazrat Musleh-e-Maud (ra) states:
“Upon hearing these things, I say that Allah the Almighty has granted me a lofty position, for which I am honoured. But it is my heart’s desire, that if only I were alive then instead of now, I would have obliterated them all. Look at the extent they fell…” as mentioned earlier, they removed the hijab from Hazrat Aisha (ra) and upon seeing her they commented that she was a young woman.”
(Report Mushawarat 11-12 April 1925, pp. 32-33)
They did not even refrain from passing remarks about Hazrat Aisha (ra).
