What is a Naasibi?

What is a Naasibi?

Nasb in Arabic refers to setting something up or raising it. Mukhtaar al-Sihaah, 1/275.

I also found a couple of quotes regarding the Naasibis:

Shaykh Ibn 'Uthaymeen said: The Naasibis are those who set themselves up against Ahl al-Bayt (the members of the Prophet’s household) and hated them and slandered them. They are diametrically opposed to the Raafidis (Shi'ah). Sharh al-Waasitiyyah, 2/283.

The Naasibis are those who hate Ahl al-Bayt, especially 'Ali (may Allaah be pleased with him), and some of them slander him and some accuse him of being a rebellious evildoer, and some of them regard him as a kaafir, as was referred to by Shaykh al-Islam (Manhaaj al-Sunnah, 7/339).
