quote by charles dickens about "imam Hussain"

If Hussain had fought to quench his worldly desires… then I do not understand why his sister, wife, and children accompanied him. It stands to reason therefore, that he sacrificed purely for Islam.charles dickens

The night before 10^th of Muharram (Lunar month) Imam Hussain (PBUH) gathered his men (companion) in a tent, they were more than one hundred people, then told them: “tomorrow a bloody war will happen and all of us will be killed but paradise is waiting for us. However if everyone who is debtor or wants to get back for any reason but he is embarrassed to leave, I blow the candle to make it easier for you.” Sometimes people have faith but not so deep, when Imam Hussain (PBUH) lighted the candle only 72 people were sitting, the rest left their leader.

shimr of your era

Today , the world is filled with oppression and tyranny . Take notice of what tormentors are doing . Observe what they are doing in Palestine , what they are doing in Iraq , what they are doing in various countries , what they are doing with the nations of the world ; what they are doing to the poor , what they are doing with the national wealth of the countries. Hussain Ibn Ali's (AS) movement extends through all these areas. Imam Hussain(as) taught a lesson not only to Shi’a and other Muslims but also to all freemen of the world .
The leader of the Indian Nationalist Movement { Mahatma Gandhi } mentioned Hussain Ibn Ali (as) about seventy years ago and said , “ I have learned from him .” Moreover , he was Hindu , he was not a Muslim at all .
He has the same impact among the Muslims . This is the story of Imam Hussain , and you are the curator of such invaluable treasure from which all humankind can benefit .            -  Ayatollah Khamenei, Jan 9, 2008

RECOGNIZE THE SHIMR OF YOUR ERA

RECOGNIZE THE SHIMR OF YOUR ERA
The martyr Morteza Motahhari , years before the Revolution , would be the one to say , "I swear to God that today's Shimr is the Israeli prime minister ." These words had such a great impact then and ring true today .
We condemn Shimr because we want to root out influence that has led others to behave like Shimr - in this world . { Shimr killed Muhammad ’s grandson Hussain Ibn Ali at the Battle of Karbala .} We condemn Yazid and Obeidollah because we are opposed to tyrannical rulers ; from rulers such as Yazid , to the rulers of indulgence and hedonism , and to the rulers of oppression over believers around the globe . Hussain ibn Ali (as) rose to power in order to defeat and eradicate governments opposed to Islamic , human and divine values: he did so by uprising .
Our gatherings must be Hussaini gatherings , gatherings against oppression , gatherings against monarchy ; gatherings against Shimrs , Yazids and Ibn Ziads of the present time . And this is the continuation of Imam Hussain's (as) story .                        Ayatollah Khamenei , Jan 9 , 2008

Imam Hussain (PBUH) in his path toward Kufa encountered the army of Ubaydallah Ibn Ziyad , the governor of Kufa , led by Horr , a top commander
in the Umayyad army who later changed sides . It is said that when Horr and his one thousand men army initially encountered Imam Hussain (PBUH) and his family and companions on the day of 4th Muharram . Horr and his army were thirsty as they had been on the way to capture Imam Hussain (PBUH) for many days, So Imam Hussein (PBUH) offered his storage of water to Horr, his army , and their horses . It is said that if Imam Hussein (PBUH) had not offered the water to Horr and his army , the water in Imam Hussein (PBUH)’s camp would have lasted until 19th day of Muharram . Horr did not arrest Imam Hussain (PBUH) first , he was waiting for new orders , but told Imam to set a camp in Karbala and stop his journey to Kufa , also he was ordered to prevent Imam Hussain from going back . Imam Hussain (PBUH) and his family were also not allowed to set up tents close to the bank of the Euphrates .

Great Quotes about Imam Hussain (pbuh)

Tomas Carlyle

The best lesson learnt from tragedy of Karbala is that Hussein and his fellow companions had a firm faith in God. They made it crystal clear that when the truth and just confronts Vanity and unjust, numerical superiority is of no importance. The triumph achieved and accomplished by Hussein despite of being in minority amazes me.

Irving Washington

On a burning sun of a deserted land and on the heated sands of Iraq, Hussein’s soul is immortal. Oh my hero, my paragon of braveness. Oh Hussein!

When Imam saw people ask for his help, sent one of his companions, Moslem Ibn Aqeel (Imam Hussain’s cousin and one of his best companion) to Kufa to check the situation and see how many people really want Imam Hussain (PBUH) to be their leader and caliph.
Yazid was informed by his spies. So he replaced Ubaydallah Ibn Ziyad in Kufa, ordering the latter to disperse the crowd supporting Moslem Ibn Aqeel. Ubaid-Allah treated people and killed some of them to dissuade them about Imam Hussain (PBUH). Then Moslem was found and delivered to Ibn Zyad, and while Moslem was going to send a message to Imam Hussain (PBUH) with the following: “return with your family, and don’t be deceived by the people of Kufa. They have misled you and me”, Ibn Ziyad killed him. However, the message was not received to Imam Hussain (PBUH) when he decided to leave Mecca.

Imam Hussain (PBUH) left Medina with his sisters, daughters, sons, brothers, and the sons of Imam Hassan (PBUH) and the companions for Hajj. He took a side road to Mecca to avoid being pursued, and once in Mecca Imam Hussain (PBUH) stayed in the house of ‘Abbas ibn ‘Abd al-Muttalib and remained there for four months.

In Mecca Abd Allah Ibn al-Zubayr, Abdullah Ibn Omar and Abdullah Ibn Abbas asked Imam Hussain (PBUH) to make Mecca his base and fight against Yazid from Mecca. Imam Hussain (PBUH) opposed Yazid and declared that Umayyad rule was not only oppressive, but also religiously misguided. The integrity and survival of the Islamic community depended on the re-establishment of the correct guidance. Imam Hussain (PBUH) also knew that the succession of Yazid was an attempt to establish an illegitimate hereditary dynasty.

On the other hand, The religious attitudes of the Umayyad caused the people of Kufa finally believe that leadership of the Muslim community belonged to the infallibles from descendants of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), so, by sending thousands letters to Imam Hussain (PBUH), they asked him to join them, come to Kufa and help them to be released from cruel rulers.

The Martyrdom Of Roghayeh,.It is narrated: Yazeed ordered to carry the holy Hussiens head for Roghayeh in a washtub
When Roghayeh saw the washtub said: what is this
They replied: Your Fathers Head
So Roghayeh thrown herself on it, and started hitting her Face and Mouth, to the point that her Mouth was full of Blood
While she was say: O father
Who has made your face bloody with your blood
Who has cut your veins
I wish I was Blind before I see like tragedy
I wish I was buried and never see this crime
Then she put her lips on the Hussiens Lips, and cried extremely load, and passed out
And when they try to move her, she was dead already. reyaz-al-Quds

The state that Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) established was in accordance with Islamic economic jurisprudence. As the state expanded, the rights of the different communities, as they existed in the Constitution of Medina still applied. The Constitution of Medina instituted a number of rights and responsibilities for the Muslim, Jews, Christian and pagan communities of Medina, bringing them within the fold of one community. The Constitution established: the security of the community, religious freedoms, the role of Medina as a sacred place (barring all violence and weapons), the security of women, stable tribal relations within Medina, a tax system for supporting the community in time of conflict, parameters for exogenous political alliances, a system for granting protection of individuals, and a judicial system for resolving disputes where non-Muslims could also use their own laws. All the tribes signed the agreement to defend Medina from all external threats and to live in harmony amongst them. The same rights were later applied to all the communities as the state expanded outside Medina. The Quran also gave rights to the citizens of the state and these rights were also applied. But Yazid was oppressive and he broke peace, so Imam Hussain (PBUH) felt that it was his religious duty to confront him and send a message to the future generations that oppressive rulers who take away the rights of people should not be given allegiance, because their oppression burn all people with every belief.
