Had it not been for Ashura, Islam would have gone astray like other religions

In the Name of Allah In the Name of Allah, the Merciful, the Most Merciful We have written in the Psalms, after the Remembrance: 'The righteous among My worshipers shall inherit the earth Sura 21: AL-ANBIYA (THE PROPHETS) - Juz' 17 - Translation Qarib Quran **************   Who is Hussain (pbuh) Had it not been for Ashura, Islam would have gone astray like other religions Nov 21, 2012 Had it not been for Ashura, had this great sacrifice not been made in the history of Islam, had this lesson not been taught and this experience not offered, Islam would have certainly suffered from deviation like the religions before Islam had suffered from, and nothing would have remained of the truth of Islam and its luminosity.

Imam Hussein (as) and his followers endured agonizing pain and suffering during Ashura

In the Name of Allah In the Name of Allah, the Merciful, the Most Merciful We have written in the Psalms, after the Remembrance: 'The righteous among My worshipers shall inherit the earth Sura 21: AL-ANBIYA (THE PROPHETS) - Juz' 17 - Translation Qarib Quran **************   Who is Hussain (pbuh) Imam Hussein (as) and his followers endured agonizing pain and suffering during Ashura Nov 21, 2012 The pain and suffering which Imam Hussein (a.s.) and his followers endured on the day of Ashura were too agonizing and the harm which was inflicted was very serious. The life of Hussein ibn Ali (a.s.) is more valuable than everything in the world. The pure and sacred lives of those followers of Imam Hussein (a.s.), the lives of those youth and those members of Imam Hussein's (a.s.) household are not comparable to the life of other people. Their bodies were covered in blood and dirt. They made sacrifices and they laid down their lives. The house...

Imam Hussein; a role model for people of all ages

In the Name of Allah In the Name of Allah, the Merciful, the Most Merciful We have written in the Psalms, after the Remembrance: 'The righteous among My worshipers shall inherit the earth Sura 21: AL-ANBIYA (THE PROPHETS) - Juz' 17 - Translation Qarib Quran **************   Who is Hussain (pbuh) Imam Hussein; a role model for people of all ages Jun 12, 2013 It is a glorious panorama in history which has been presented to the entire humanity. Imam Hussein (a.s.) prepared himself for such a day. Of course, the entire 50-plus-year life of Hussein ibn Ali (a.s.) is a lesson. His childhood is a lesson, his youth is a lesson, his behavior during his imamate is a lesson and his behavior after the martyrdom of Imam Hassan (a.s.) is a lesson. It was not the case that Imam Hussein's (a.s.) responsibility was confined to the last day. However, the event of Karbala enjoys such greatness and brightness that like a sun, it overshadows all the othe...

Why are the martyrs of Karbala the masters of the martyrs throughout history?

In the Name of Allah In the Name of Allah, the Merciful, the Most Merciful We have written in the Psalms, after the Remembrance: 'The righteous among My worshipers shall inherit the earth Sura 21: AL-ANBIYA (THE PROPHETS) - Juz' 17 - Translation Qarib Quran **************   Who is Hussain (pbuh) Why are the martyrs of Karbala the masters of the martyrs throughout history? Jun 12, 2013 Many people were martyred in the way of God and alongside the Holy Prophet (swa), the Commander of the Faithful (as) and divine prophets But none of these events is comparable to the event of Karbala. There is a difference between a person who enters the arena with the praise and encouragement of friends and companions and with a hope of victory and who is martyred in such conditions... and a person who enters the arena in a dark and gloomy world while not only do all the great personalities of the world of Islam refuse to accompany him, but they also blam...

The woman who led to the survival of the biggest oppression-countering movement in history

Our lady - Zaynab al-Kubra - made two moves in order to do this: one was made during her capture and her transfer to Kufa and Shaam where she made illuminating and enlightening speeches. The other move was making a pilgrimage to Karbala in Arbaeen. This was either the first or second Arbaeen. This move means that we should not allow the malevolent motives which intend to erase dear,...
