When Yazeed's son came to power he gave the speech:
'Khilafat is from Allah (swt). My grand father Mu'awiya bin Abu Sufyan fought for khilafat against that individual who was more entitled to it, that being 'Ali. He [Mu'awiya] performed actions that you are all aware of, and he is suffering in his grave for that. Then my father Yazeed became the khalifah even though he was not deserving of khilafat. He fought the grandson of Rasulullah (s) [Husayn (as)] and is suffering in the grave on account of his sins.' Mu'awiya bin Yazeed then proceeded to cry, 'It is a terrible thing that we are fully aware of Yazeed's bad deeds: he slaughtered the family of the Prophet (s), he deemed alcohol halal, and set fire to the Ka'aba. I don't need
this khilafat, you deal with it"
[Ahle Sunnah Reference: Sawaiqh page 134]
Ahle Sunnah scholars Amro bin Bahr al-Laythi (d. 255 H) popularly known as Al- Jahidh said:
"The evil deed which Yazeed committed by killing Hussain (as) and took the daughters of Allah's messenger as slaves and hit the lips of Hussain's (head) with the stick and scared the people of Madina and destroyed the Ka'aba, shows that he (Yazeed) was rough, stone hearted, Nasibi, possessed bad thoughts, venom, hatred, hypocrite, was out of the pale of faith, Fasiq and an accursed, and who ever forbid cursing the accursed is himself an accursed person."
