Q 2: There is a Hadith in “Iqtida’ Al-Sirat Al-Mustaqim” (p. 200),
related by Muslim, stating:
“There will appear from the tribe of Thaqif a liar and a Mubir.”
The liar was Al-Mukhtar Al-Thaqafy, who sided with
Al-Husayn.
There was also
Al-Hajjaj
who turned away from
`Aly
and his people, and was a “Mubir”. What exactly does it mean that he was a “Mubir”?
A: A Mubir
is someone who sheds blood, attacks people, and oppresses them.
Al-Hajjaj ibn Yusuf Al-Thaqafy was one of them.
