Abstract: (3034 Views) |
| Ansar was of the main elements of Muslims and the power levers in the early days of Islam. They joined Imam Ali (AS) in the aftermath of Saqifa and assisted him in the major events of that time. However; some of the Ansars, including Bashir bin Saad Khazraji and his son Nouman bin Bashir, governor of Kufa on the eve of Imam Hussein’s uprising, took a different position. This study investigates the approach of Nouman bin Bashir in confrontation with Kufis and supporters of Imam Hussein (AS) by using the descriptive-analytical method. Findings of the present study indicate that Nouman bin Bashir had a dual, ambiguous and sometimes antithetical attitude encountering various events of his political life. He also despite the unwillingness to Imam Ali’s family did not take a decisive stance against the Kufis during the arrival of Muslim bin Aqil to Kufa, and he only gave a sermon to calm down the political atmosphere. The content of this sermon signifies that his lenient or procrastinating behavior on one hand rooted in the condition of Ansar after the Prophet and tribal prejudices and on the other hand rooted in personal benefits and his desire to gain power. |
