The first revolt took place during Arba'een
Feb 16, 2009
Arba'een, which took place after the Battle of Karbala, was only a start. That
event marked the beginning. After the great tragedy in Karbala and the sacrifice
that Imam Hussein (a.s.), his companions, and his family members made, those who
were taken captive had to propagate the message of Karbala. The sermons and
disclosures of Zeinab (s.a.) and Imam Sajjad (a.s.) had to act like a powerful
medium and propagate the thought, goals, and positions of the martyrs of
Karbala. That was what happened later on... Many people - who had listened to
Zeinab (s.a.) or Imam Sajjad in Kufa and Shaam -found out a lot of things when
they saw the conditions of the captives of Karbala. But they did not have enough
courage or capabilities to stand up to the oppressive and arrogant government of
the time and show what they had found out. Believers suppressed their feelings.
Arba'een provided the first outlet for the suppressed truth and feelings. The
first revolt took place on Arba'een.
