The martyrdom of Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه) and his noble companions is not merely a historical event — it is a living guide for all Muslims across all times.

From a Sunni Barelvi and Dawat-e-Islami perspective, the real power of Karbala lies in the lessons it teaches us, not just the grief it evokes. Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه) taught the Ummah how to stand for truth, remain patient in adversity, and love the Ahl-e-Bayt in a way that uplifts the soul and preserves the honor of Islam.


🌟 1. Standing for Truth, Even When Alone

Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه) could have lived a life of comfort in Madinah. Yet, he chose to rise against Yazid — not for power or rebellion — but because Yazid’s rule was unjust, immoral, and a threat to Islamic values.

“I did not rise to spread evil or oppression. I rose to reform the Ummah of my grandfather ﷺ.”

📖 Lesson: Muslims must stand for truth (Haq) and justice, even when it is difficult, unpopular, or dangerous. Remaining silent in front of falsehood is not an option.


🌙 2. Patience in Hardship (Sabr)

From the burning sands of Karbala to the captivity in Kufa and Shaam, the Ahl-e-Bayt showed unparalleled patience (sabr). Despite witnessing the deaths of loved ones, Sayyidah Zainab (رضي الله عنها) and Imam Zain-ul-Abideen (رضي الله عنه) never lost faith or composure.

They never blamed Allah — instead, they submitted to His will, proving the strength of true faith.

📖 Lesson: When facing trials — financial stress, loss, illness, or oppression — we should turn to Allah, pray, and stay firm in our beliefs. Patience is not weakness; it’s spiritual strength.


💖 3. Love for the Family of the Prophet ﷺ (Ahl-e-Bayt)

Loving the Ahl-e-Bayt is an essential part of Sunni Islam. The Prophet ﷺ said:

“Hussain is from me and I am from Hussain.”
(Tirmidhi, Hadith 3775)

Sunni Barelvi scholars emphasize that true love for the Ahl-e-Bayt must be present in our hearts, actions, and lives — through respect, remembrance, and emulation.

📖 Lesson: Teach your children the names, lives, and values of Imam Hussain, Sayyidah Fatimah, Imam Hasan, and Sayyidah Zainab (رضي الله عنهم). Attend Mehfil-e-Hussain and promote du’a and zikr, not rituals of mourning that go against the Shari’ah.


🕌 4. Unity Without Hatred

One of the core lessons from Karbala, especially for Ahlus Sunnah, is that we condemn tyranny without spreading hatred. We honor Imam Hussain (RA) and love Ahl-e-Bayt, but do not curse the Sahaba (رضي الله عنهم).

Imam Ahmad Raza Khan Barelvi (رحمة الله عليه) said:

“Love the Ahl-e-Bayt is fard. But respect for Sahaba is also fard. We do not curse; we connect hearts with the love of both.”

📖 Lesson: Avoid sectarian division. Instead, hold balanced beliefs that unite the Ummah in love, reverence, and learning.


🕊 5. Reviving the Spirit of Sacrifice

Imam Hussain (RA) gave up everything to protect Islam — even his six-month-old son Ali Asghar (RA). Are we willing to sacrifice our ego, sins, or comforts for the Deen?

📖 Lesson: Let Karbala inspire you to:

  • Pray regularly (even Fajr!)
  • Avoid lying or cheating
  • Wear modest clothing
  • Protect your eyes and heart from sins
  • Support the oppressed and speak up for the truth

Conclusion: Karbala Is Not Over — It Lives Within Us

The battlefield of Karbala may be in Iraq, but the test of Karbala is in every heart. Will you bow to falsehood? Will you give in to peer pressure, injustice, or sin? Or will you stand like Imam Hussain (RA), even if you’re standing alone?

Karbala lives in every moment we choose Deen over Dunya, truth over lies, patience over anger, and love over hate.

After Ashura / Karbala: The Captivity of the Ahl-e-Bayt https://islamiczikr.com/after-ashura-karbala-the-captivity-of-the-ahl-e-bayt/ https://islamiczikr.com/after-ashura-karbala-the-captivity-of-the-ahl-e-bayt/#respond Sat, 05 Jul 2025 07:20:21 +0000 https://islamiczikr.com/?p=3599 Read more]]> The 10th of Muharram witnessed the ultimate sacrifice of Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه) and his noble companions in the plains of Karbala, as they stood courageously against the tyrant Yazid. However, the tragedy of Karbala did not end with the martyrdoms. A new phase of suffering began — the captivity of the women and children of the Ahl-e-Bayt (the noble household of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ).

What followed was a painful journey from Karbala to Kufa, and then to Damascus (Shaam) — filled with humiliation, physical hardship, and emotional trauma. But this phase also saw the unshakable bravery of Sayyidah Zainab (رضي الله عنها) and the divine patience of Imam Zain-ul-Abideen (رضي الله عنه).


1. The Aftermath of Ashura

After Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه) was martyred, the enemy soldiers stormed the tents of the Ahl-e-Bayt. The women and children, already grief-stricken, were subjected to further cruelty:

  • Tents were set on fire.
  • Children were left hungry and thirsty.
  • Jewelry, veils, and possessions were snatched from the women.
  • Even the sacred daughters of Fatimah (رضي الله عنها), the daughter of the Prophet ﷺ, were disrespected.

Among the survivors were:

  • Sayyidah Zainab bint Ali (رضي الله عنها) – sister of Imam Hussain, a woman of unmatched strength and eloquence.
  • Sayyidah Umm Kulthum (رضي الله عنها) – the younger sister of Sayyidah Zainab.
  • Imam Zain-ul-Abideen (رضي الله عنه) – the only adult male survivor, spared due to illness.

The enemy shackled the women and children, tied ropes around their necks, and dragged them across the burning sands of Karbala. Their journey of grief had just begun.


2. The Journey from Karbala to Kufa

The captives were first taken to Kufa, the city that once promised support to Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه), but betrayed him.

In Kufa:

  • The prisoners were paraded publicly, causing the people to weep upon recognizing the family of the Prophet ﷺ.
  • They were presented in the court of Ubaydullah ibn Ziyad, the brutal governor of Kufa.

Sayyidah Zainab’s Historic Speech in Kufa

Despite immense sorrow, Sayyidah Zainab (رضي الله عنها) stood with dignity in Ibn Ziyad’s court and delivered a powerful sermon:

“Do you think that you have defeated us? By Allah, you have only cut your own roots… O Ibn Ziyad! Do not be proud of what you have done, for you have killed those whom Allah has honored…”

Her words shook the court and exposed the tyranny and moral collapse of Yazid’s regime. Even some soldiers and onlookers cried in shame.


3. From Kufa to Damascus (Shaam)

After some days, the caravan of captives was sent to Damascus, the capital of Yazid’s empire. The journey was long, cruel, and humiliating, crossing the deserts of Iraq and Syria.

  • The women and children were barefoot, veilless, and chained.
  • The blessed head of Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه) was mounted on a spear and carried at the front.
  • People gathered along the roads, thinking they were rebels — but when they heard the truth, many wept bitterly and repented.

Despite being physically broken, Sayyidah Zainab (رضي الله عنها) led the caravan with grace. She comforted the children, preserved the dignity of the household, and continued to speak the truth.


4. The Court of Yazid in Damascus

In Shaam, the family was brought before Yazid. He sat arrogantly on his throne, mocking the martyrs and praising his victory.

But once again, Sayyidah Zainab (رضي الله عنها) rose and spoke fearlessly:

“O Yazid! Do you think you have gained power over us? Your days are numbered. Your deeds will be judged by Allah… You have insulted the family of the Prophet ﷺ. But know this: We have given our lives for the truth!”

This bold declaration stunned the court. Many were moved, and even Yazid became fearful of the political consequences. Eventually, due to public outrage, Yazid released the family and allowed them to return to Madinah.


5. The Legacy of the Captivity

While the men of Karbala gave their lives in the battlefield, the women preserved the message through their words and patience. Their captivity:

  • Exposed the cruelty of Yazid to the Muslim Ummah.
  • Revived the spirit of resistance and sacrifice.
  • Strengthened the bond of the Ummah with the Ahl-e-Bayt.

Sayyidah Zainab (رضي الله عنها) became a symbol of Islamic resistance, much like Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه) became a symbol of sacrifice.


Conclusion: Captivity Turned Into a Revolution

From Karbala to Kufa to Shaam, the women and children of the Ahl-e-Bayt endured unimaginable pain. But they turned their suffering into strength, their wounds into wisdom, and their tears into the seeds of change.

As per Sunni Barelvi scholars and Dawat-e-Islami, the message of Karbala is incomplete without remembering the captivity and resilience of the Ahl-e-Bayt.

Their courage is a reminder for all Muslims — to never compromise with falsehood, to stand firm in faith, and to honor the family of the Prophet ﷺ in every era

The Day of Ashura – What Happened in Karbala? https://islamiczikr.com/the-day-of-ashura-what-happened-in-karbala/ https://islamiczikr.com/the-day-of-ashura-what-happened-in-karbala/#respond Sat, 05 Jul 2025 06:23:04 +0000 https://islamiczikr.com/?p=3595 Read more]]> The 10th of Muharram, known as Yaum-e-Ashura, is a day marked with deep sorrow, reflection, and reverence in the hearts of Muslims, especially followers of Ahl-e-Sunnat wal Jama’ah (Sunni Barelvi). It is the day when the beloved grandson of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, Imam Hussain ibn Ali (رضي الله عنه), along with his noble family and loyal companions, were brutally martyred in the scorching plains of Karbala in the year 61 AH (680 CE).

But Ashura is not just a historical event — it is a timeless lesson in sacrifice, dignity, and unwavering commitment to truth.


1. The Background to the Battle

After refusing to pledge allegiance to the tyrant Yazid, Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه) journeyed from Madinah to Makkah, and then toward Kufa upon receiving thousands of letters of support from its people. However, before he arrived, the political environment changed, and Kufa was seized by Yazid’s forces, leaving Imam Hussain isolated.

By the time Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه) reached Karbala, he was met by an overwhelming army led by Umar ibn Sa’ad, sent by Ubaydullah ibn Ziyad, Yazid’s governor of Kufa. Imam Hussain, along with 72 companions, including women and children, was forced to camp in the desert, with access to water from the Euphrates River completely blocked.


2. The Night Before Ashura

On the eve of Ashura (9th Muharram), Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه) gathered his companions and family. He informed them of the reality that they would all be martyred by the next day and gave them permission to leave in the cover of darkness if they wished. But no one abandoned him. Instead, they reaffirmed their loyalty with tears and bravery, choosing shahadat (martyrdom) over life without honor.

That night was spent in salah, tilawat, and du’a — the desert of Karbala resonated with the sound of worship and the name of Allah.


3. The Battle of Karbala Begins – Morning of Ashura

As the sun rose on the 10th of Muharram, the camp of Imam Hussain was surrounded. Despite multiple attempts to avoid war, Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه) was left with no choice.

Key Points About the Battle:

  • Yazid’s army numbered between 20,000–30,000 soldiers.
  • Imam Hussain’s side had only 72 souls, including children and elderly.
  • Imam Hussain’s side fought only to defend their faith, not to attack or gain power.

The battle started after Fajr. Imam Hussain organized his small army and prepared them for the final stand of truth.


4. The Martyrdom of the Noble Companions

One by one, Imam Hussain’s companions went to the battlefield, each reciting verses of bravery and the greatness of Allah. They knew they wouldn’t return — yet each went joyfully, treating martyrdom as an honor.

Among them were:

Habib ibn Muzahir (رضي الله عنه):

An elderly companion of the Prophet ﷺ and close friend of Imam Hussain. He fought valiantly and was martyred defending the family of the Prophet.

Muslim ibn Awsaja (رضي الله عنه):

One of the first martyrs of Karbala. Though elderly, he displayed immense courage.

Zuhair ibn Qayn (رضي الله عنه):

A brave warrior who embraced the truth after hearing Imam Hussain’s call and gave his life with pride.

These companions proved that victory does not lie in numbers but in sincerity.


5. The Martyrdom of the Family of Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه)

The sacrifice became even more painful when members of the Ahl-e-Bayt entered the battlefield:

Ali Akbar ibn Hussain (رضي الله عنه):

The eldest son of Imam Hussain. A young man in his late teens who resembled the Prophet ﷺ in appearance and manner. He was martyred bravely while calling upon Allah.

Qasim ibn Hasan (رضي الله عنه):

The young son of Imam Hasan (رضي الله عنه), only about 13 years old. Though a child, he begged Imam Hussain to let him fight and embraced martyrdom.

Abbas ibn Ali – Al-Abbas Alamdar (رضي الله عنه):

The half-brother of Imam Hussain, also known as Ghazi Abbas. He was the flag-bearer of the camp and a symbol of bravery and loyalty. He went to fetch water for the thirsty children and was killed with both arms severed. His martyrdom shook the camp deeply.

Each martyrdom left a deep emotional wound, but strengthened the mission of Imam Hussain — to never accept falsehood.


6. The Martyrdom of the Infant Ali Asghar (رضي الله عنه)

In one of the most heartbreaking moments of Karbala, Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه) brought his six-month-old infant, Ali Asghar, to the battlefield.

Holding him up, he said:

“O people! If I am guilty in your eyes, what has this innocent child done? At least give him a drop of water!”

But in response, a three-pronged arrow was shot by Hurmala, piercing the neck of the baby while in the arms of his father. Imam Hussain looked up and said:

“O Allah! Witness the patience of Your Hussain.”


7. The Final Stand of Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه)

By the afternoon, all his companions and family had been martyred. Imam Hussain stood alone — wounded, exhausted, and heartbroken — but spiritually stronger than ever.

He fought alone with immense courage and recited:

“O soul, be content. Return to your Lord, pleased and pleasing.” (Surah Al-Fajr)

Eventually, he fell to the ground, and the cursed Shimr approached him. In the most horrific act, Imam Hussain was beheaded, and his blessed head was taken to Kufa and then Damascus.

Thus, the greatest martyrdom in Islamic history was completed — not in defeat, but in eternal victory of Haqq (truth) over Baatil (falsehood).


8. Aftermath and the Captives of Karbala

The remaining family — mostly women and children, including Sayyidah Zainab (رضي الله عنها) and Imam Zainul Abideen (رضي الله عنه) — were taken as captives to Kufa and then Shaam (Syria).

But even in chains, Sayyidah Zainab spoke boldly in Yazid’s court, exposing his tyranny and defending the legacy of the Prophet ﷺ.


Conclusion: The Legacy of Ashura

As taught by Sunni scholars, especially Dawat-e-Islami, the tragedy of Karbala was not a defeat — it was a triumph of Imaan, honor, and resistance. Imam Hussain’s blood was not shed in vain; it preserved the spirit of Islam and exposed the dangers of corrupt leadership.

Ashura is not a day of mere mourning — it is a reminder of our duty:

  • To stand against injustice
  • To live by the truth
  • To uphold the Sunnah of the Prophet ﷺ
  • To love and honor the Ahl-e-Bayt

Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه) said:

“I did not rise for power or fame. I rose to reform the Ummah of my grandfather ﷺ.”

Let us honor Ashura with prayers, reflection, and commitment to the path of truth and sacrifice.

Arrival at Karbala: Encampment and Siege https://islamiczikr.com/arrival-at-karbala-encampment-and-siege/ https://islamiczikr.com/arrival-at-karbala-encampment-and-siege/#respond Wed, 02 Jul 2025 12:11:05 +0000 https://islamiczikr.com/?p=3576 Read more]]> The journey of Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه) — from Madinah to Makkah and finally to Karbala — was not only historic but spiritual. It was a mission to uphold the truth of Islam and protect the legacy of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ from falling into the hands of tyranny. When the noble caravan arrived in Karbala, it marked the beginning of the most heart-wrenching and tragic siege in Islamic history.

explore what happened after Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه) and his family were stopped, how they were denied water, and what occurred in the final moments before the Day of Ashura.

The Arrival and Encampment at Karbala


On the 2nd of Muharram 61 AH, Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه), his family, and a small group of loyal companions arrived in the barren land of Karbala, situated near the Euphrates River in present-day Iraq.

    Upon reaching the area, Yazid’s army, under the leadership of Umar ibn Sa’ad, surrounded them. Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه) was told that he could neither go forward to Kufa nor return to Madinah. He was forced to stop in this desolate land — and it was here that the final encampment was set up.

    Despite being blocked on all sides, Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه) maintained patience, continued offering prayers, and reminded his companions to remain steadfast and hopeful in Allah.

    The Siege and Denial of Water


    Soon after the encampment, Yazid’s army cut off access to the Euphrates River. This happened on the 7th of Muharram, as part of a brutal strategy to pressure Imam Hussain into surrendering. The denial of water lasted for three days — causing extreme thirst, especially among the children, women, and the elderly.

      Even infants, like Ali Asghar (رضي الله عنه) — the six-month-old son of Imam Hussain — suffered the pain of thirst. The cries of the children echoed in the camp of Ahl-e-Bayt, yet Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه) and his companions bore it with unmatched sabr (patience).

      Despite being surrounded, Imam Hussain did not lose hope in Allah. He made several attempts to negotiate peace and reminded the enemy of his noble lineage and connection to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, saying:

      “O people! Recognize me. Who am I? Am I not the grandson of your Prophet ﷺ ?”

      But hearts had been hardened by worldly desires and fear of Yazid’s punishment.

      The Noble Character of Imam Hussain During the Siege


      Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه) demonstrated unmatched leadership and character even in such a dire situation. He spent his final nights:

        Praying, making du’a, and reciting the Qur’an

        Comforting his family members

        Encouraging his companions to remain firm

        He addressed his loyal followers and gave them permission to leave if they wished, saying:

        “Those who stay with me will be killed. So I lift the bay’ah (pledge) from you.”

        But not one of his companions left. They chose martyrdom over betrayal. This shows the love, loyalty, and commitment to the truth that surrounded Imam Hussain.

        The Night Before Ashura (9th Muharram)


        The night before Ashura, known as Shaam-e-Ghariban, was a night of intense devotion, reflection, and spiritual preparation.

          Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه) spent the night in worship and prayer.

          His companions, knowing death awaited them, still remained content and at peace, even joyful for the honor of martyrdom.

          The women and children, including Sayyidah Zainab (رضي الله عنها), remained firm in their faith and dignity.

          This night reflects the highest level of imaan (faith) ever seen — where every individual in Imam Hussain’s camp chose truth over life.

          Lessons from the Siege of Karbala


          The siege of Karbala was not merely a military blockade — it was a spiritual test, a symbol of how far truth must be protected, even at the cost of life.

            It teaches us:

            Never to surrender to oppression or falsehood

            Always to stand by the Sunnah of the Prophet ﷺ

            That martyrdom (shahadat) for the sake of Deen is the highest honor

            Conclusion: A Divine Mission in the Face of Cruelty
            The arrival at Karbala, the denial of water, and the last moments before Ashura are chapters written with blood, faith, and sacrifice. Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه) and his blessed family showed that Islam is not a religion of silence in the face of evil — it is a Deen of courage, honor, and divine submission.

            As followers of Ahl-e-Sunnat wal Jama’ah, we remember Karbala not to mourn with rituals, but to live with lessons. Let us make du’a to Allah that He grants us the strength to remain firm in Deen, to stand against injustice, and to walk in the footsteps of Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه) — the lantern of guidance and the savior of Islam.

            शेर-ए-ख़ुदा के ला’ल, नवासे रसूल के

            चारों-तरफ़ से घेर लिया फ़ौज-ए-शाम ने
            ये ज़ुल्म सय्यिदों पे किया फ़ौज-ए-शाम ने

            इक ज़ख़्म दिल पे और भी गहरा लगा दिया

            ज़ैनब ने जब निगाहों से देखा ये माजरा
            आ कर कहा हुसैन से, भय्या ! सुनो ज़रा

            करती हूँ इस ग़रीबी में इक आख़िरी सवाल
            ख़िदमत में ले के आई हूँ मैं अपने दोनों ला’ल

            माना कि ये तुम्हारी बहन का क़रार हैं

            ज़ैनब की बात सुन के शह-ए-दीन रो दिए
            जैसे किसी ने रूह में नश्तर चुभो दिए

            फ़रमाया, जाओ रन की इजाज़त भी हम ने दी
            इन को शहीद होने की ‘इज़्ज़त भी हम ने दी

            ज़ैनब ! तुम्हारे लाडले ख़ूँ में नहाएँगे
            ये ला’ल हम से पहले ही जन्नत में जाएँगे

            शब्बीर इतना कह के परेशान हो गए

            क़ासिम का सीना छिद गया, अकबर हुए शहीद
            राह-ए-ख़ुदा में सब ही दिलावर हुए शहीद

            ज़हरा का सब्र छिन गया, हैदर का घर लुटा
            अफ़सोस ! कर्बला में पयंबर का घर लुटा

            बच्चों का दुख है सीने में, फ़िक्र-ए-हरम भी है
            और उस के साथ नाना कि उम्मत का ग़म भी है

            शेर-ए-ख़ुदा के शेर की हालत ‘अजीब है
            वो ख़ूब जानते हैं शहादत क़रीब है

            या हुसैन इब्न-ए-‘अली ! या हुसैन इब्न-ए-‘अली !

            बीमार नौनिहाल को बिस्तर पे छोड़ कर
            शब्बीर रन में चल दिए घोड़े को मोड़ कर

            सीने में अपने जज़्बा-ए-ईमाँ लिए हुए
            निकले हैं लब पे आयत-ए-क़ुरआँ लिए हुए

            ज़ी-जाह रही ‘अज़ीज़ न राहत ‘अज़ीज़ थी

            दरिया बहा जो फ़ौज का प्यासे को देख कर
            सब काँप उठे नबी के नवासे को देख कर

            तीरों का मेंह बरसने लगा शाह-ए-दीन पर
            ख़ून-ए-हुसैन गिरने लगा जब ज़मीन पर

            उस ख़ूँ को फ़रिस्तों ने दामन में ले लिया
            इक बूँद को भी रेत पे गिरने नहीं दिया

            या हुसैन इब्न-ए-‘अली ! या हुसैन इब्न-ए-‘अली !

            ज़ख़्मों से चूर हो गया जो मुर्तज़ा का ला’ल
            सज्दे में सर झुका के कहा, रब्ब-ए-ज़ुलजलाल !

            तेग़ों के साए में मेरा सज्दा क़ुबूल कर
            ये आख़िरी नमाज़ है, मौला ! क़ुबूल कर

            इस तरह पूरा हो गया तक़दीर का लिखा
            सूखे गले पे चल गया ख़ंजर ल’ईन का

            उम्मत को यूँ बचाया शह-ए-बे-मिसाल ने
            सज्दे में सर कटा दिया ज़हरा के ला’ल ने

            या हुसैन इब्न-ए-‘अली ! या हुसैन इब्न-ए-‘अली !
            या हुसैन इब्न-ए-‘अली ! या हुसैन इब्न-ए-‘अली !

            मेरा हुसैन है !
            मेरा बादशाह हुसैन है !

            हिदायत-ए-हुसैन पर
            ‘अमल करो, ए मोमिनो !
            रहेंगे हम बहिश्त में
            यक़ीं रखो, ए मोमिनो !

            क़ुबूल होगी हर दु’आ
            किसी से क्यूँ डरें भला
            हमारा वास्ता हुसैन है

            मेरा हुसैन है !
            मेरा बादशाह हुसैन है !

            दु’आओं में, निदाओं में
            जो वास्ता इसे बनाएगा
            बहिश्त की जो राहों का
            रास्ता इसे बनाएगा

            न वास्ते में तोड़ है
            न रास्ते में मोड़ है
            ऐसी सीधी राह हुसैन है

            मेरा हुसैन है !
            मेरा बादशाह हुसैन है !

            क़ज़ा के बा’द फिर मुझे
            नई हयात मिल गई
            ‘अज़ाब से, ‘इताब से
            मुझे निजात मिल गई

            सवाल जब किया गया
            है कौन तेरा पेशवा
            तो मैंने कह दिया हुसैन है

            मेरा हुसैन है !
            मेरा बादशाह हुसैन है !

            शहीद-ए-कर्बला का ग़म
            जिसे भी ना-गवार है
            वो बद-‘अमल, है बद-नसब
            उसी पे बे-शुमार है

            अरे ओ दुश्मन-ए-अज़ल !
            तू मर ज़रा क़बर में चल
            पता चलेगा क्या हुसैन है

            मेरा हुसैन है !
            मेरा बादशाह हुसैन है !

            करेगा जो मुख़ालिफ़त
            ग़म-ए-हुसैन की यहाँ
            वो होगा हश्र, हश्र में
            कि अल-हफ़िज़-ओ-अल-अमाँ

            जहाँ भी छुपने जाएगा
            कहीं भी बच न पाएगा
            कि हर जगह मेरा हुसैन है

            मेरा हुसैन है !
            मेरा बादशाह हुसैन है !

            Mere Husain! Tujhe Salaam!” is more than just poetry — it’s a heartfelt salaam (salutation) to the greatest martyr in Islamic history, Imam Husain (رضي الله عنه), the beloved grandson of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. This moving piece, recited soulfully by Muhammad Owais Raza Qadri, Hafiz Ghulam Mustafa Qadri, and Syed Salman Qadri, captures the immense pain, glory, and spiritual power of Karbala.

            Each verse speaks of the suffering Husain (رضي الله عنه) endured — the betrayal of Kufa, the thirst of the children, the cruelty of the enemy, and above all, the ultimate sacrifice for the sake of Islam and the Ummah. The poem reminds us of Husain’s unwavering stand for truth, his loyalty to Allah and His Messenger ﷺ, and the unmatched patience of Ahl-e-Bayt under unbearable hardship.

            This naat is a tribute for every heart that beats with love for Husain — a reminder that Karbala is not just a past tragedy but a living message of resistance, sacrifice, and steadfast faith.

            Let us send endless salams upon Husain ibn Ali and all the martyrs of Karbala.
            “Assalaam Ya Husain!”

It is not just a historical event but a timeless lesson of sacrifice, truth, and unshakable faith. “Karbala Ke Jaan-nisaron Ko Salam” is a heartfelt salaam (tribute) penned by Muhammad Ilyas Attar Qadri and beautifully recited by Muhammad Owais Raza Qadri. This naat honors the brave martyrs of Karbala — from Hazrat Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه) to Hazrat Abbas, Ali Akbar, Qasim, and the thirsty yet steadfast women and children of the Ahl-e-Bayt.

            Each verse sends salutations upon the companions who stood firm in the face of tyranny, reflecting the pain of their sacrifice and the honor they upheld. The naat is not just poetry; it’s a soulful reminder of loyalty, faith, and the spirit of standing for truth even when all odds are against you.

This was not a political rebellion, but a peaceful stand against injustice, oppression, and the misuse of Islamic leadership. Let us understand the powerful reasons and sacred events that unfolded during this blessed journey, as viewed by Sunni scholars, especially those following the Ahl-e-Sunnat wal Jama’ah (Barelvi/Dawat-e-Islami) tradition.


            1. Why Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه) Left Madinah

            In the year 60 AH, when Yazid ibn Muawiyah assumed the caliphate, he sent direct orders to the governor of Madinah to take bay’ah (pledge of allegiance) from Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه).

            But Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه) firmly refused.

            His reason was clear: he could not legitimize a corrupt and unjust ruler. Yazid’s character, conduct, and leadership were contrary to Islamic values. Accepting him would mean accepting falsehood.

            Realizing that Yazid would not stop at anything — and possibly planning to assassinate him — Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه) decided to leave Madinah, not to seek power, but to protect his family and safeguard Islam.

            He bid farewell to the resting place of his beloved grandfather, Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, and departed from Madinah with a heavy heart and pure intention.


            2. Journey to Makkah – A Sanctuary

            Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه), along with his family members and a small group of companions, arrived in Makkah, the sacred sanctuary, where no blood should be shed. He was warmly welcomed by the people and began to receive visitors and letters from various parts of the Islamic world.

            During his stay, Imam Hussain made it clear that:

            “I am not seeking power or authority. I only desire to reform the Ummah of my grandfather ﷺ, enjoin good, and forbid evil.”


            3. The Letters from Kufa

            While in Makkah, hundreds of letters began arriving from Kufa — a city in Iraq. The people of Kufa were familiar with the pious legacy of Imam Ali (رضي الله عنه) and were deeply dissatisfied with Yazid’s rule.

            They wrote:

            “We have no Imam other than you. Come to us and we will give you full support.”

            In many letters, they promised allegiance, protection, and loyalty. Over 18,000 letters were sent. To assess the situation, Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه) sent his cousin, Muslim ibn Aqeel (رضي الله عنه), to Kufa as his ambassador.

            Muslim ibn Aqeel initially received strong support, and Imam Hussain began preparing to respond to the call. However, this support was short-lived due to the fear and oppression caused by Yazid’s newly appointed governor in Kufa, Ubaydullah ibn Ziyad.


            4. The Journey of His Caravan Towards Kufa

            Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه), despite knowing the risks, decided to proceed — not for war or rebellion, but in response to the call of the people of Kufa, and to fulfill his duty of speaking the truth.

            He left Makkah before Hajj, replacing his intention with Umrah, to avoid the sacred city becoming a place of bloodshed. Yazid had already sent assassins to Makkah to kill him during Hajj — a horrifying act against the sanctity of the Kaaba.

            Thus, the caravan of Imam Hussain set out with:

            • Family members, including women and children
            • Close companions and supporters
            • The flag of truth, courage, and sincerity

            During the journey, he stopped at various places, delivering sermons, and warning people of the situation. At each stop, he made it clear that:

            “If the people of Kufa no longer want me, I am ready to return.”

            But news of Muslim ibn Aqeel’s martyrdom soon reached Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه) during the journey — a moment of deep sorrow. Still, he did not turn back, because retreat would mean allowing falsehood to prevail and breaking his promise to stand for justice.


            5. Arrival at Karbala

            On the 2nd of Muharram 61 AH, the caravan reached the barren land of Karbala, by the bank of the River Euphrates. Yazid’s army surrounded them and blocked access to water, even for children.

            Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه), despite several peaceful attempts, was not allowed to proceed or return. The enemies insisted he pledge allegiance to Yazid, but he refused, declaring:

            “Death with dignity is better than life with humiliation.”

            Thus began the final stage of the journey — one that would end in the greatest sacrifice in the history of Islam.


            Conclusion: A Journey of Truth, Not Politics

            From Madinah to Makkah, and then to Karbala, the journey of Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه) was not for worldly power, but for preserving the soul of Islam. As per Sunni scholars and Dawat-e-Islami, this journey symbolizes the eternal battle between Haqq (truth) and Baatil (falsehood).

            Imam Hussain (رضي الله عنه) chose hardship over ease, sacrifice over comfort, and martyrdom over silence — all for the sake of Allah and the Deen of his grandfather ﷺ.

            Let us remember this blessed journey and take inspiration to always:

            • Speak the truth
            • Stand against injustice
            • Remain firm on the Sunnah of the Prophet ﷺ
