i have read the shitie belief over Khilafat issue at your web. some questions aorse in my mind kindly answer.
1- If some ansar and muhajirin were that much concerned about Khilafat then the burriel arrangements of thier beloved Rasool then how we can say them true muslim because i think the burriel was more important then to appointment of khalifa at once and without any suggestion of majority.
Answer:
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatuh
–The appointment of the Khalifah was, at that point, more important than the burial.
–Also, whilst the dispute over the next Khalifah continued, some Sahabah were engaged in the burial arrangements.
–Furthermore, the immediate appointment of the Khalifah was vital so as to prevent fitnah (social turmoil) within the Ummah.
And Allah knows best
