Qatl-e-hussain asl mein marg-e-yazid hai

Islam zinda hota hai har karbala ke baad

"The martyrdom of Hussain is, in reality, the death of Yazid; Islam remains alive after every Karbala."

2 Muharram 61 Hijri

The caravan of Imam Hussain (as) was continuously followed by Ibn e Ziyad's troops from Makkah onwards. The caravan of Imam Hussain (as) reached the land of Karbala on 2 Muharram 61 hijri. Imam Hussain (as) before reaching Karbala told his companions:

"It seems that I will be killed in this venture (Is safar men main mar dia jaonga)." He told his companions about a dream he had that day that he was being chased by the hounds who wanted to attack and harm him and one hound in particular which had white spots was more vicious in it's attacks."

When they reached the borders of Karbala Imam Hussain (as) horse stopped and did not move. When the horse did not move Imam Hussain (as) left the saddle and approached the ground. He inquired about the name of the land from passers by and recited,

" اِنَّا لِله وَ اِنَّا اِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُوْنَ "Verily, this is the land that my grandfather told me about, this is the place that was promised."

He bought the land and asked Hazrat Abbas (as) to set the tents. The caravan stopped. Maqtal writes that the glow on the face of Imam Hussain (as) increased as he arrived on Karbala. Imam Hussain (as) examined the land and went on it's far and near plains (nashaib or Faraz). He used to stop at a spot, shed some tears, look at the sky and move ahead. He repeated this act several times until he reached the deepest spot on Karbala. He spotted a lady in black veil wailing while removing rocks from that piece of land.

Imam Hussain (as) who had stopped at a distance shedding tears was followed by his son Ali Akbar (as) who viewed the same sight and asked who was the lady and what was she doing? Imam Hussain (as) cried and said that,

"That is your grandmother the lady of the heavens who had descended from Heavens on Karbala tonight. That spot on the land is where I will fall from the back of the horse and where I will be beheaded soon. She is removing rocks from that place where I will fall."

The heavens did not fall and the earth did not stop moving when these words were said however the heavens and earth and all that is in it bore witness the Patience of the heart of Imam Hussain (as). He was ready to sacrifice all he had for Allah (swt). His tears were not because he was to be killed but for the state of affairs that had led to threaten tauheed and the essence of Islam.

Tonight is the first night of Imam Hussain (as) and his children and friends in Karbala. The present tense is used because as per parallel time theory of science Karbala again is writing itself the way it happened in 61 hijri and the children of Imam Hussain (as) are witnessing the rise of troops, spears and swords around them. The pain of being spatially and temporally restricted to not reach the dear beloved is a grief that eats away the soul.

—• The character of Imām Zayn al-'Ābidīn after Karbalā

"The character of Imām Zayn al-'Ābidīn (may Allah be pleased with him) transcendent in Husn al-Akhlāq — good conduct and moral excellence.

Once, Yazīd wished to kill one of his generals during the Battle of Karbalā (due to their personal enmity). The killer had no clue where to flee, so he fled to Madīnah. He stayed in the Court of the Imām for three days and enjoyed his hospitality. Imām Zayn al-'Ābidīn ordered the servants to feed him well and take good care of him. When the killer sought permission to leave, the Imām ordered his servants to load his ride with food and provisions; after all he had been the Imām's guest. When he stood up to leave, the killer could not move his feet. He thought that the Imām did not recognize him.

The killer, being shy of the mercy of Imām Zayn al-'Ābidīn, could not move forward. The Imām asked (politely): ‘Why aren’t you leaving?’ He replied, ‘I want to ask you one thing.’ The Imām allowed him to do so. The killer said: ‘It seems to me, O Imām, as if you haven’t recognized me.’

The Imām replied: ‘I recognize you since the day of Karbalā’. ‘If you recognize me since that day, why did you deal with me in this manner?’, the killer astonishingly asked. The Imām replied: ‘That was your character and this is our character! That was ‘you’, this is ‘us’!"

— Shaykh Dr Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri

Owls Mourn Al Hussain (as)

Imam Sadiq (A) asked, “Has anyone of you ever seen it (the owl) in day time?”

It was said, “No, it never appears during the day. It only appears at night.”

Imam (A) said, “The owls previously dwelled in only developed structures but when Imam Husayn (AS) was martyred, they refused to stay in developed structures and refused to take anything but ruins as abodes. Indeed, the owls fast during the day and are aggrieved until nightfall. At night they lament on Imam Husayn (AS) till the morning.”

(Kamil al-Ziyarat)
