Abu-Sufyan

[MATTHEW MENGE]

In Some Answered Questions 'Abdu'l-Baha states that Abu-Sufyan was the name of one of the Umayyad rulers.  I have been reading Balyuzi's Muhammad and the Course of Islam and he indicates that there was no Abu-Sufyan ruler and that there were three Mu'aviya's instead of two.  Also, despite the fact that Balyuzi is a Baha'i he never seems to explain this discrepancy.  Could someone please explain this?   Best Regards,   Matt ---------- You are subscribed to Baha'i Studies as: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Baha'i Studies is available through the following: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://list.jccc.net/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=bahai-st news://list.jccc.net/bahai-st http://www.escribe.com/religion/bahaist (public) http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED] (public)
