Hazrat Ameer Muawiya RadiAllahoAnh ki shan mein Huzur Ghaus e Paak RadiAllahoAnh ka faisla:

Sare Ahle Sunnat is par muttafiq hain ke Sahaba karam ki jungon mein bahas se baaz raha jaye aur unhe bura kahne se parhez kiya jaye. Unke fazail aur unki khubiyan zahir ki jayen aur un buzurgon ka mamla Rabb ke supurd kiya jaye jaise woh ikhtalafat Jo Hazrat Ali aur Hazrat Aisha,Muawiya,Talha,Zubair RadiAllahoAnhum mein waqya huye jiska bayan hum pahle kar chuke hain Aur har azmat wale ko uski azmat ka haq diya jaye kiyunke Rabb Ta'ala mominon ki shan mein irshad farmata hai ke jo musalman un sahaba ke ba'ad aye woh yun kahte hain ke aye Rabb hamen bakhsh de. (Ghaniyatul Talibeen,page 178) Huzur Ghause paak RadiAllahoAnh ko manne wala inke irshadat ko sun kar kabhi bhi kisi bhi sahaba karam ki shan mein jisme Hazrat Ameer muawiya RadiAllaho Anh bhi shamil hain,kabhi bhi zaban ta'an daraz karke apna iman barbad nahi karega.
