Some memorable events of 10th Muharram and the source of the infinite power of Islam

1363 years ago, on this day in 61 AH, the most tragic event or tragedy in the history of the world took place.

In Karbala, Iraq, about 100 companions of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) floated in a sea of death and blood and gave Islam the practical lessons of a culture of revolution and martyrdom that is billions of times more powerful than nuclear power. This revolution in Karbala has inspired all the great revolutions in the modern era, including the Islamic Revolution in Iran.

A group of devout Muslims, including Imam Husain (as) and all the male members of his family (except Imam Zainul Abidin (as)) who were staunch supporters and lovers of the Prophet's family, were brutally murdered for refusing to accept the cruel and wicked sinner Yazid as the caliph of the Muslim world. In Karbala.

Upon learning of the Imam's refusal to obey Yazid, Kufr sent letters and representatives to about one lakh citizens so that they could taste the true Islamic rule and be freed from the shackles of Yazid's stigmatized rule. So the Imam (AS) also left Makkah for the purpose of Kufr so that with their cooperation a mass movement could be formed against the monarchical dictatorship of Yazid. But in the face of various fears and temptations from the governor and administration of Yazid, the pro-imam people in Kufa failed to support the Imam's representative and the Imam's representative Muslim Ibn Akil was ruthlessly martyred.

In this situation, Imam Kufr became frustrated with the help of the people, but he continued his journey towards Kufr to fulfill his promise so that no one could accuse him of being cowardly, cowardly and compromising. Although he knew that he and his family and companions might be martyred in Kufa, he was ready to accept the highest sacrifice for the sake of reviving the dying Islam for the sake of Allah.

The Imam realized through foresight that the blood donation of the family of the Prophet would not be in vain and one day the people would wake up.

Before reaching Kufa, Yazid's forces surrounded the Imam at Karbala with his family and companions. They were told to choose either Yazid's obedience or death. But they fought valiantly and chose the path of martyrdom. The Imam was not ready for battle. And that's why he brought his family's children and women with him.

Even when the battle of Muharram was inevitable, Imam Yazid tried to convince the forces that they were going to start an unjust war against the innocent members and supporters of the Prophet's family. But the advice of the leaders and workers of Yazid forces, who were accustomed to greedy and haraam food, did not have any effect. However, Hor Ibn Yazid, an officer of the Yazidi army, realized his mistake and joined the Imam's camp along with some of his relatives and companions and was martyred in the end.

Omar Ibn Saad, the commander of Yazid's forces, was the first to shoot an arrow at the Imam. Almost all of the male companions who were ready to sacrifice their lives for the Imam fought like Mahabir against thirty thousand hypocritical soldiers and many hypocritical soldiers were sent to hell and martyred one by one. Hazrat Ali Akbar, the handsome young son of the Imam, about 18 years old (who was exactly like the Prophet in appearance and demeanor, even his voice was similar to the voice of the Prophet). Many old enemies were shocked to hear his call to prayer in Karbala Maidan. Rose) were martyred by sending many hypocrites to hell. Similarly, Hazrat Qasim (RA), the son of Imam Hasan (AS) was martyred. No one was able to fight them. When the enemies saw that every thirsty heroic army of Imam Shibir was able to kill many of their soldiers, they surrounded the heroic army and overpowered it by throwing many arrows or spears from a distance.

As the water of the Euphrates was forbidden to the Imam Shibir for several days, everyone in the Imam Shibir, including the family members of the Prophet, was thirsty. In the scorching heat, the condition of the children became deplorable.

In this situation, when the Imam asked the enemies for water for his infant Ali Asghar (RA), he shot the innocent child in the neck and martyred him. Hazrat Abul Fazl Abbas (RA), the true brother of the Imam, fought like a hero while fetching water for the children and lost both his hands. He was one of the commanders of the Imam's army and sent many enemies to hell. Some children of the Prophet's family also fought like heroes and were martyred. The family members of the Prophet (peace be upon him) were unique in outward and spiritual beauty. In other words, just as they were beautiful to look at, they also had the best character in their behavior.

After the martyrdom of his children, brothers, nephews and companions, Hazrat Imam Hussain (AS), the son of Hazrat Ali (AS), the lion of Allah, entered the battle. (Although he knew before him that there was no one to respond to his call. Yet he said, "Is there anyone to help me? Or, will anyone respond to my call for help?" He said four times. He called on the Muslims to help him in the path of his ideals.) He alone sent about two thousand hypocritical soldiers to hell. More and more hypocrites were wounded by his wounds. But At one point he too became exhausted with extreme thirst. At that time he was surrounded by hypocritical soldiers. Stones and many poisonous arrows hit one of the leaders of the heavenly youth. An arrow was three-branched. Then a spear struck one of the men. As a result, the cavalry Imam (AS) lost his balance and fell to the ground. Then another narcissist, Shimar or Sinan, severed the Imam's head from Mubarak's body while he was alive. (May the curse of Allah be upon these people forever.) The Imam had at least three hundred and sixty blows with spears, arrows and swords. According to some accounts, the number of injuries is one thousand three hundred. That day was Friday and Imam was 58 years old.

The head of the Imam was pierced with the spear of Mubarak. Not only that, the corpses of the martyrs, including the body of the Imam, were trampled by horses and the holy corpses were trampled by the beasts. It is said that the closer the time of martyrdom approached, the brighter or brighter the face of the God-seeing and martyrdom-loving Imam became. He was martyred between the Zuhr and Asr prayers. Earlier, he had prayed with his companions in Salatul Khawf or Jamaat in the time of war or fear (short method).

Yazid's forces set fire to the tents of the Imam's camp and looted women's jewelry. They looted the Imam's belongings and camels. Even the burqas of the women of the Prophet's family were looted by the narcissists. They are taken barefoot in rows like prisoners to Kufa or Damascus.

According to a narration, after the martyrdom of the Imam, a Yazidi army of Kufr cried loudly. When he was rebuked, he said, "I am weeping because I saw the Prophet (peace be upon him) standing." He looks at the earth once and at your war once. I am afraid he will curse the earth and you will be destroyed.

The Yazidi soldiers said the man was crazy. But some of them repented and said: By Allah, we have killed the leader of the youth of heaven for the child of Sumaiya. Then they rebelled against Ibn Ziyad.

After the martyrdom of the Imam, Umm Salamah, the wife of the Prophet (peace be upon him), was seen crying and was asked about the reason. He said, "I saw in a dream the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) with his head and beard covered in dust." When the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) was asked about this, he said, "I have just witnessed the assassination of Hussein."

On the day of Ashura the sun turned black. They could be seen in the red sky during the day. Many feared that the Hour might begin. Fresh blood could be seen under any stone.

According to the Islamic narration, the Prophet (peace be upon him) himself miraculously collected the holy murder of Imam Husain (peace be upon him) and judged it in the court of Allah. The angels also cried on the day of Ashura. Allah the Almighty has comforted the angels that revenge will be taken for this murder.

All those who took part in the brutal massacre and barbarism against the Prophet's family in Karbala were severely punished in the world. Mahamati Mukhtar Sakafi (ra) executed most of the killers. On the other hand, the prophet-family-loving Muslims have been crying for Imam Husain (AS) and his great companions for ages and this mourning has become one of the main strengths of Islam. The heroic martyrs of Karbala are the eternal rulers of the heart-kingdom of Muslims. #Radio Tehran
