Offering condolences to the Raafidis for the killing of al-Husayn
Question

                I read some tweets by some Sunni people on Twitter offering condolences to the Raafidis for the killing of al-Husayn (may Allah be pleased with him), or telling them “Ma’jooreen (may you be rewarded for your loss).” What is the ruling on doing that?
Praise be to Allah.
	Firstly:

	Ahl as-Sunnah 
	wa’l-Jamaa‘ah are closer to al-Husayn (may Allah be pleased with him) and 
	the family of the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) than 
	anyone else, for they are the ones who show love and respect for the Prophet 
	(blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) by showing love and  respect for 
	his family, wives, companions and offspring, as Allah, may He be glorified 
	and exalted, enjoined, without any exaggeration or negligence. The Raafidis 
	do not have any advantage that gives them a special connection to al-Husayn 
	(may Allah be pleased with him) or the Ahl al-Bayt (members of the Prophet’s 
	family), such that they should be offered these condolences. In fact, in 
	this regard their exaggeration, innovations and misguidance dictate that we 
	should disavow them and denounce them.

	For more details 
	on the Raafidi sect, please see question no. 101272.

	Secondly:

	What the 
	Raafidis do of venerating the day of ‘Ashoora’, holding gatherings of 
	mourning, expressing grief and weeping in memory of the death of al-Husayn, 
	with all the kinds of Jaahili wailing that they do, is a reprehensible 
	innovation that was not done by the early generations, namely the Sahaabah, 
	Taabi‘een and leading imams (may Allah have mercy on them).

	It was not the 
	practice of the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) to 
	commemorate the anniversary of the slaying of any of the Prophets or 
	martyrs, including Hamzah the leader of the martyrs (sayyid ash-shuhada’ – 
	may Allah be pleased with him).

	And it was not 
	the practice of the early generations to c ommemorate the anniversary of the 
	death of anyone, either the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon 
	him) or anyone of lesser standing than him.

	So whoever does 
	that has fallen into innovation and is going against the Sunnah and the 
	practice of the righteous early generations.

	For more 
	information, please see question no. 4033.

	The Raafidis 
	went even further in their misguidance and introduced on this day abhorrent 
	innovations and grave evil practices for which there is no basis in the 
	religion of Islam, such as striking the chest, rending the garments, 
	wailing, slapping the cheeks, striking the shoulders with chains, cutting 
	the head with swords and shedding blood.

	For more 
	information, please see question no. 101268

	Based on the 
	above, it is not permissible for a Muslim to offer condolences to the 
	Raafidis for the slaying of al-Husayn (may Allah be pleased with him), 
	because of what that involves of innovation and going against the Sunnah, 
	and what it involves of supporting and approving of their falsehood. 
	Similarly it is not permissible to say to them Ma’jooreen (may you be 
	rewarded for your loss) because they will not be rewarded for their 
	innovation; rather they are sinning and deserve to be punished.

	And Allah knows 
	best.
