22nd Rajab's konday is the argument of the hatred of the Companions (R.A) and ruling on to participate in it:
Question: Every year on 22nd of Rajab, people make kunday in their homes to get reward to Sayyedena Jafar Sadiq. Is 22 Rajab the birth or death day of Sayyedna Jafar Sadiq or not?
Answer:22 Rajab is neither the birth-day of Sayyedna Jafar Sadiq nor the day of his death, rather it is the day of death of Sayyedna Muawiyah (R.A). And this ritual is invented by the Rafizis. Earlier they opny express happiness on this day. When the Sunnies became dominant, the general division was stopped and they cooked at home and invited each other to feed.
Sunnies should never participate in this ritual. How can it be justified to participate in an act whose main purpose is to insult the companion of Holy Prophet (PBUH) and hurt the emotions of Muslims?
