2] The Shi’ah claim that the Sahaabah did not attend the funeral of theProphet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) - Biography of the Prophet

2]
The shais claim that the companions were not at the funeral of the
prophet? is this true? and if its not where was they?are they hadiths
to support this?.
Praise be to Allaah.
One of the most hateful characteristics that a person may have is that
of lying. Hence the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon
him) said concerning it: "Beware of lying, for lying leads to
wickedness and wickedness leads to Hell. A man may continue to tell
lies and endeavour to tell lies, until he is recorded with Allaah as a
liar." Narrated by al-Bukhaari (6134) and Muslim (2607).
None of the groups that claim to belong to the ummah of Muhammad
(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) is known to tell lies more
than the Shi'ah. This is something that has been well known about them
from ancient times. The imams referred to that in their books hundreds
of years ago, and they still have this hateful charcateristic.
Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (may Allaah have mercy on him) said:
The scholars are agreed, on the basis of reports and chains of
narrators, that the Raafidah (the Shi'ah) are the most mendacious of
groups and that the lies among them are ancient. Hence the imams
defined them as being distinguished by the fact that they are liars.
Imam Maalik was asked about the Raafidah and he said: Do not talk to
them and do not narrate from them, because they tell lies.
Imam al-Shaafa'i said: I have never seen anyone who bears false
witness more than the Raafidis.
Yazeed ibn Haroon said: You can narrate from any man of innovation
(bid'ah), provided that he is not active in calling others to his
innovation, except al-Raafidah, because they are liars.
Shareek al-Qaadi said: Acquire knowledge from everyone you meet except
the Raafidah, for they fabricate hadeeth and take that as their
religion.
This Shareek is Shareek ibn 'Abd-Allaah al-Qaadi, the qaadi of Kufah,
one of the peers of al-Thawri andAbu Haneefah. He is one of the Shi'ah
who said with his own tongue: I am one of the Shi'ah, and this was his
testimony concerning them.
These reports are proven; they were narrated by Abu 'Abd-Allaah ibn
Battah in al-Ibaanah al-Kubra by him and others. End quote from
Minhaaj al-Sunnah al-Nabawiyyah (1/26-27).
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) died on 12th
Rabee' al-Awwal 11 AH, after the sun had passed its zenith, and he was
buried on the Tuesday night, after all the people of Madeenah had
offered the funeral prayer for him,as Abu Bakr al-Siddeeq (may Allaah
be pleased with him) said: Some people came in and said takbeer and
offered the (funeral) prayer and said du'aa', then they left;
thenothers came in and said takbeer and offered the (funeral) prayer
and said du'aa', then they left, untilall the people had come in.
Narrated by al-Tirmidhiin al-Shamaa'il (p. 338) and classed as saheeh
by al-Albaani in his review.
None of these Sahaabah who offered the funeral prayer for the
Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and were in
Madeenah on thatday should be thought of as having done anything but
attend the funeral of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be
upon him). This is something so obvious as to need no proof or
evidence. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) was
dearer to them than their spouses, fathers, mothers and children; he
was evendearer to them than their own selves, as Anas (may Allaah be
pleased with him) said: No person was dearer to them than the
Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him).
Narrated by al-Tirmidhi (2754) and classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in
Saheeh al-Tirmidhi.
But some people's hearts are filled with hate and resentment against
Islam and its people, so they fabricate lies against themand slander
them falsely, although they (the Sahaabah) are the best of people
after the Prophets and Messengers of Allaah, according to the
testimony of the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)
who said: "The best of people are my generation, then those who come
after them, then those who come after them." Narrated by al-Bukhaari
(2652) and Muslim (2532).
The one who slanders, denigrates and reviles them is in fact
slandering the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him),
for they are his companions, students and supporters, and they are the
dearest of people to him.
There are reports which show that they attended his funeral, and the
matter is too clear to need any evidence, as stated above.
It was narrated that Anas ibn Maalik (may Allaah be pleased with him)
said: The day that the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of
Allaah be upon him) entered Madeenah was the brightest of all, :->
