On the 6th of July, 2000, British Prime Minister Tony Blair’s son was arrested for drinking when he was found drunk and incapable near Leicester Square, London.
When asked about it, Tony Blair remarked:
“Being a prime minister can be a tough job and being a parent is probably tougher!”
It is apparent from the above statement that PM Tony Blair took the blame upon himself for not being a good father and not paying enough attention to his son’s upbringing.

Now, if we look at Hazrat Ali (A.S.), he was raised by none other than the Holy Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W.W.) himself. If he fell into the habit of drinking, fingers are to be pointed at the Prophet (nauzobillah) for not being a good parent.
But Mr. Israr Ahmed does not realize this while trying to distort the images of the Ahle-Bayt (A.S.).

DRIVING THE NAIL INTO THE COFFIN
Caliph Umar’s son Ubaidullah was found drunk and brought to his court. He announced that his son was to be dealt with according to the Shariah and was to be whipped.
His son then screamed, “Only that man is going to whip me who has never touched wine and has never drunk it!”
Everyone looked around bewildered, then the Caliph finally announced, “Call Ali!”

Perhaps it would do Mr. Israr some good to read a few books before trying to distort the history of Islam to try to stain the clean image of the Ahle Bayt (A.S.) and to wash the blood-stained faces of the Bani Umayyah (L.A.).
