Aisha Bint Abubakar (may god bless them both) is our mother but i never came across a verse that equates dishonoring her to apostasy. I politely dare you to show me
the same with cumar(ra) cusman(ra) while insulting them constitutes a grave crime against the religion still thats not enough to turn you into Mushrik.
but that's besides the point. we don't not make takfir on them for insulting the sahaba (ra). yes, it's a reason to kill them for any scum who reviles the companions of the prophet (saw) must be killed. but that's after the point with shias. no, the reason shias are mushrikeen is because the scum associate partners with allah (swt), eg praying to their imams instead of allah (swt); claiming their imams control the universe down to the smallest atom; that their imams, not allah, preserves the deen. all of this and much worse beliefs of theirs contradicts the quran and sunnah - totally violates the oneness of allah (swt).
