1. Good muslim but shia is he still a kafir? 2. He thinks that Hadrat Ameer Mawiya (R.A) had something to do with the Shahadat of Hadrat Ali (R.A). Also about the war, who was on the right path?

All the Shiites are not regarded as Kaafir. That Shiite who believes that Ali (Radhiallaahu Anhu) is deity or that Jibreel (Alayhis salaam) instead of taking revelation to Ali (Radhiallaahu Anhu) mistakenly took it to Rasoolullah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) or the Qur?an is incomplete or altered or Abubakar (Radhiallaahu Anhu) was not a Sahabi or the accusation made on Aisha (Radhiallaahu Anhu) was true, etc will be a Kaafir. If a Shiite does not believe in the above and respects all the Sahabah, then he will not be regarded as a Kaafir.%0D%0A%0D%0AIt is erroneous to think bad of Mu?aawiyah (Radhiallaahu Anhu). He had nothing to do with the martyrdom of Ali (Radhiallaahu Anhu). Ali (Radhiallaahu Anhu) was on the right path in the battle that occurred between them while Mu?aawiyah (Radhiallaahu Anhu) made an Ijtihaadi mistake for which he cannot be taken to task. After the martyrdom of Ali (Radhiallaahu Anhu) and the reconciliation of Hasan (Radhiallaahu Anhu) with Mu?aawiyah (Radhiallaahu Anhu), Mu?aawiyah (Radhiallaahu Anhu) became the rightful Khalifah.%0D%0A%0D%0AThe Hadith you stated is correct. It will be incorrect to call such a person a Kaafir who is a known Muslim or there is a possibility of him being a Muslim. There is a danger that that person who calls another Kaafir (without any investigation) may become Kaafir himself. That person who calls another a Kaafir after proper investigation will not be named Kaafir. It must be borne in mind that it will be incorrect to go about calling other people Kaafir regardlessly.%0D%0A%0D%0AWe should become practical Muslims and convey the practical Islam to others.%0D%0A%0D%0AAnd Allah Ta?ala knows best,%0D%0A%0D%0AMufti Muhammad Ashraf%0D%0ADarul Iftaa - Jameah Mahmoodiyah, Springs%0D%0A%0D%0AJOINT PROJECT WITH DARUL IFTA, MADRASAH IN?AAMIYYAH, CAMPERDOWN%0D%0A
