Karbala
It is not a matter of ‘aqeeda’ and its not that easy to decide conclusively as to whose decision was right in that situation and surrounding environment. All the details that we have are based on Akbar-i-Ahad, which being a zanni ilm, puts us in a position where we can’t say anything conclusively. Ghamidi Sahab expressed his inclination and understanding after going through all the available sources. You can disagree with his opinion if you’re inclined otherwise, but please note that this is not a matter of faith (aqeeda) and accountability for which we will be held accountable in front of the Almighty, whether we reached the right conclusion in this regard or not. Please see the following response of Ghamidi Sahab.
