Assassination of Ameerul Momineen a.s

. *Why Ameerul Momineen's (as) Life was spared by the rulers or was it?*

PART - 3⃣

*Umar’s attempt to eliminate Ameerul Momineen Ali Ibn Abi Talib (a.s.)*

The Muslim majority rejects all talk of an attempt on Ameerul Momineen Ali Ibn Abi Talib’s (a.s.) life. But how can they justify the attempt on his (a.s.) life as legislated by Umar in the consultative committee?

All Muslims agree that Umar had constituted the consultative committee (Shura) to select his successor; to ensure that the selection was in harmony with his own choice, he formulated some peculiar laws.

He ordered Sohaib (Ibn Sinaan Ibn Maalik) to lead the prayers for three days and only these six members would consult each other.

Among these six, the seventh will be none except Abdullah Ibn Umar, but there will be no opinion from his side.

Thereafter, Umar made a will to the Muhaajireen (immigrants) and the Ansaar (helpers) present there as follows: If three days pass and after consultation the six members don’t agree on paying allegiance to one of the members, then behead all six of them. If before the passage of three days, four of them agree upon someone and two of them oppose those four, behead the two dissenting members.
