The shia believe that Hazrat Ali was the rightful successor of the Prophet and was appointed as the Caliph by Hazrat Muhammad at the event of Ghadeer. See link below.

Based on this, they believe that the three caliphs were unjustified in their actions of taking up (or accepting) the caliphate.

The shia beliefs strictly follows sayings and rulings of Hazrat Ali after Hazrat Muhammad as they believe Ali was the religious authority after Hazrat Muhammad and they believe he was the first Imam ( a designation that they believe is a form of caliphate appointed by God).

So its natural that they would not consider any person in Islamic history as rightful if they find that person stood up against Ali. In presence of many such events and personalities they favour Ali in all the instance and show disassociation with others.

Some shia go to extremes because some events have been reported in history that disturb them. Some of these are:

  • Hazrat Umar denying pen and paper to Hazrat Muhammad when Hazrat Muhammad wanted to write something that would help keep the Ummah united ( reported in Sahih Bukhari and Sahih Muslim)
  • The event of Saqifa where Hazrat Abu Bakar was appointed Caliph by a group of companions in the absence of Hazrat Ali
  • The event of Fidak which was a land owned by Hazrat Fatima , the daughter of the Prophet , and taken away by the caliphs because they ruled that the Prophet has no succession
  • The event of setting Hazrat Fatima's house on fire and death of her son Hazrat Mohsin
  • The battle of Jamal where Hazrat Aisha lead an army against Hazrat Ali
  • The battle of Siffin where Hazrat Ameer Muawiya fought against Hazrat Ali

The shia have great respect for the Prophet and his family and due to all above events they disassociate themselves from the people who were against the Prophet's family.

However their Ulema do not approve of use of abusive language for these personalities for the sake of unity of the Muslim Ummah. However the practice of 'disassociation' with these personalities has the approval from the Ulema as well.

Comment in the aboveAll the above is a kind of history that its authentication is not completely validated. It enough to state two facts:
  1. Ali (Allah be pleased with him) was the strongest supporter to the three Caliphs who proceeded him (Abou Bakr-Omar-Othman). Some, I don't find reason for any enmity or conflicts between Shiites and Sunnis.
  2. Both Sunnis and Shiites believe in Quran and all Islamic pillars and differ only on minor historical issues. So, Both Shiites and Sunnis are basically one entity, Refer to question below.
