| | In place of the theocratic government of the early caliphs, Muawiyah created a more autocratic and secular regime, which sought to maintain the privileges of the Arabs and the fruits of their conquests. | | | Islam was reserved as a privilege of the Arabs and was not forced upon the conquered peoples, whose society was preserved and strongly influenced the government, art, and economy of the dynasty. | | | Under Muawiyah I and his Umayyad successors, Muslim control of the Mediterranean region was completed. |

| | Muawiyah, who is seen by some historians as the founder of Arab nationalism and the dictatorship principle in Islam, inspired the contemporary Arabist, dictators, and terrorists, such as presidents Saddam Hussein of Iraq and the late Hafez Assad of Syria. | | | Ironically, the secular Baath party allied with the terrorist fighters of Al Qaeda to kill Iraqis in schools, hospitals, mosques and on roads, just because they chose to remove their oppressive regime and accept democracy and reconciliation for Iraq instead of totalitarianism and exclusivity. | | | The responsibility of the sweets in this murder was very similar to the responsibility of Imam Ali in the killing of Ammar Bin Yasser, and the real murderer is hidden or not blamed. |

| | An introduction to fifth infallible Hazrat Imam Hussain |
| | When Imam Hassan Mujtaba (A.S.) was martyred due to the conspiracies of Muawiyah, Imam Hussain (A.S.) got the post of Imamate and caliphate at the age of forty-six. | | | Imam Hussain (A.S.) knew that all the miseries and sorrows of Muslims were due to Muawiyah who wanted to uproot Islam by his frauds, cunningness and craftiness. | | | Therefore, Imam (AS.) did not think it was suitable to fight him openly, as Muawiyah was apparently Muslim and showed himself to be the supporter of Islam and Muslims. |

| | Ali was not able to resolve the crisis before he was assassinated by a rebel faction, and Muawiyah claimed the Caliphate upon his death. | | | Muawiyah claimed that because Ali had taken no action to apprehend Uthman's killers, Ali was complicit in his murder. | | | Muawiyah consolidated his own power and refused to accept 'Ali's authority until Uthman's assassins were brought to justice. |
