Nasibi
Nașibi (Arabic: ناصبي) (plural Arabic: نواصب, romanized: nawașib) is a term used in Islamic scholarship to describe a Muslim who is opposed Ali ibn Abi Talib and his family. The word “Nasb” in Arabic means to establish or raise something, and from this comes the word “Nasibat al-Shar” and “al-Harb” (The Settlement of Evil and War). Sunnis and Twelver Shiite writers agree that the Nawasib are those who believe that Ali ibn Abi Talib was immoral, but who do not believe that he was an infidel, as the Khawarij did. Some Twelver Shiites however extend the term Nawasib to include all their opponents, regardless of whether they believe he was immoral or an infidel).
