[0:17]my brothers and sisters tonight is a very special night tonight for

[0:28]the followers of the when it comes to the seventh of muharam

[0:32]traditionally speaking we remember the sacrifice of the brother of IM Hussein

[0:42]and the son of IM we remember the sacrifice of the most

[0:50]loyal and courageous a man who we all seem to be so

[1:01]attract Ed to out of his humility his whole life he never

[1:06]called IM Hussein his brother he knew that he was born for

[1:12]a specific reasoni had known of the prophecy ofala and he wanted

[1:23]a warrior to be with the son of fa when the son

[1:26]of Fatima was to meet his Destiny he wanted a warrior to

[1:30]repres present him the same that was in the same that was

[1:42]in the same that was in he wanted that to be inala

[1:45]but he knew he wouldn't be there so he looked for a

[1:50]woman that came from a warrior tribe whose brothers and uncles and

[1:57]fathers and ancestors were all Warriors known as lions and he married

[2:06]this woman her name was Fatima but she never accepted to be

[2:09]called Fatima because she knew that her children and the children of

[2:12]Fatima whenever they would hear her name it made pain their heart

[2:17]so she told them to call her by another title when was

[2:25]born IM Ali took him into his arms and kissed his hands

[2:30]cuz he knew the fate of this baby he trained this baby

[2:38]until its adulthood this baby became a man that represented IM Ali

[2:47]in s and Ali was so proud of him he was a

[2:55]large man an intimidating man a courageous man but a very humble

[2:59]man he would not speak even if his older brothers were present

[3:02]he wouldn't speak in front of Hussein he only called them M

[3:10]he never regarded himself as worthy of them he never regarded himself

[3:14]as an equal even though he's a son of Al and Ali

[3:17]had a special place for and trained him he was his mirror

[3:24]he was his mirror he trained him in his image he wanted

[3:28]haar the way that I was with you are supposed to be

[3:34]like this with Hussein I need you to be there for Hussein

[3:37]in his mission his whole life knew what his mission was going

[3:43]to be and he trained for that day this man was the

[3:50]humble courageous Warrior was by the im's side throughout everything tonight we

[3:57]dedicate our tears to the one who didn't even want to be

[4:02]remembered next to the tragedy of abdah the one who did not

[4:07]want to be taken back to the camp everyone else was taken

[4:11]back to the camp after they were marted had one request from

[4:18]Hussein just one don't take me back to the C that's the

[4:22]place for your sons and the Mars leave me here because I

[4:26]don't want Z to see me like this I don't want Su

[4:29]to see me like this and I couldn't bring back the water

[4:31]even though he gave his whole life and sacrificed everything that was

[4:37]his one request never thinking of himself the epitome of Brotherhood was

[4:44]Abbas tonight you remember when wah dies and yazid takes the throne

[5:07]IM Hussein receives news of the death of mu now in terms

[5:16]of the details of the treaty between IM alassan and muaah IM

[5:23]Hussein is supposed to become the Khalifa automatically at the death of

[5:28]muaah because mua himself when he signed the treaty as the self-proclaimed

[5:35]when he signed the treaty the condition of the treaty was if

[5:40]I am to die and you are to die then the will

[5:44]go to my brother Hussein signed off on that so as soon

[5:50]as mua dies by the order of mua no one else IM

[5:54]Hussein is supposed to become Theif I'm talking politically I'm not even

[5:57]talking IM he was the IM IM as the prophet says he's

[6:01]the IM do you like or not he's the IM regard him

[6:03]as the IM or not he's the IM but khif politically he

[6:07]was supposed to be the successor so when some people come and

[6:11]say that IM Hussein rose up when he shouldn't have risen up

[6:17]and this was a dispute and Allah knows what would have happened

[6:20]and may Allah forgive all the sahab that is a ridiculous notion

[6:27]even by the order of mua Hussein was to be Theif he

[6:29]didn't saw actually yaid is the one who spoke against the Khalifa

[6:35]of his time not IM but politically speaking that was his Khalifa

[6:39]based on his father's order in any case Hussein is with abdah

[6:47]in in Medina he in Medina with abdah zu and he receives

[6:54]news in the middle of the night Messengers send a letter to

[6:59]the governor of Medina his name is ya sends him a letter

[7:07]saying my father has died and I have now taken the and

[7:10]I want you to take the Pledge of Allegiance from Hussein Ali

[7:15]and if he doesn't give it to you then you strike his

[7:18]leg that was the letter that came from deash from Damascus now

[7:24]in Medina he's the governor he receives the letter and he becomes

[7:28]nervous because IM Hussein was very famous in the Muslim um he

[7:36]was still regarded as the only grandson son and the closest to

[7:40]the prophet everyone knew that he was the he the everyone knew

[7:45]this it doesn't matter they all knew everyone knows that and now

[7:55]he receives a letter saying strike the neck of didn't want to

[7:59]do that but he was scared of yaid that if he doesn't

[8:04]uphold the order he worries what will happen to him so he

[8:06]sends a delegation in the middle of the night to go to

[8:11]Hussein and tell him that he used to be called to the

[8:13]Palace in Medina the delegation goes to husin he was next to

[8:21]the shrine of withd they come to the delegation they say we

[8:25]have nots for you abdah Zu says in the middle of the

[8:29]night what could be so urgent that you couldn't wait until morning

[8:31]responds the Tyrant has died he already knew the Tyrant has died

[8:37]and it seems that they want to take our Allegiance now before

[8:42]the morning so then they read the letter mu has died ya

[8:45]has sent word that he wants your Pledge of Allegiance please come

[8:49]to the Palace so Abdullah Zu says I'm coming andd husin says

[8:58]I'm coming but Abdullah Zu ends up going home he packs his

[9:02]things and he ran away he left in the middle of the

[9:10]night IM Hussein he doesn't leave he's courageous like his father he

[9:16]said he was going to the Palace he's going to the Palace

[9:20]but first he went to up foras and the bashin he gathered

[9:26]Abbas and his Warriors and told them we are going to The

[9:31]Palace I'm going to go inside all of you remain outside but

[9:34]if you hear my voice to loud then you'll come inside so

[9:41]said no problem they all walk to the palace and they take

[9:43]their swords and all of them have their swords beneath their cloaks

[9:46]husin says wait here I'm going to go in alone he walks

[9:51]into the palace he stands in front of wi tells him that

[9:55]you need to pledge allegiance to yazid in order to avoid Bloodshed

[9:59]IM husin says yazid wants the Pledge of Allegiance from me even

[10:05]though yazid is a killer and the drunken and a sinner and

[10:13]someone like me does not give to someone like yaid notice he

[10:20]says someone like me and someone like ya because in every time

[10:25]there's someone representing evil and there's someone on the right path and

[10:32]we are supposed to be inspired byd to be on the right

[10:34]path so if anyone tells you you should not be inspired byus

[10:43]today against the tyrants of the day sayin said someone like me

[10:47]does not give B to someone like him and when he said

[10:53]that a man that was next to that worked in the palace

[10:55]Maran he said if Hussein leaves this place without pledging there will

[10:59]be a wall strike his neck before he leaves so Hussein in

[11:05]a loud voice was firms who will strike my neck you will

[11:09]strike my neck or will you strike my neck if you want

[11:14]to strike my neck come forward when he raises his voice charges

[11:17]into the palace with the behind him all of them take their

[11:23]swords out and stand right in front of Hussein and remains silent

[11:29]and remains silent and saying then tells him we are we are

[11:36]the family that the was sent through know who you're talking to

[11:42]before your mouth opens again they remained silent andah left the palace

[11:49]with the bash with their heads held high always their heads held

[11:52]high they left the palace aldah decides we have to leave Medina

[11:59]now ya has declared war IM Hussein takes his Caravan and they

[12:05]go to Mecca for a little while kufa the people of kufa

[12:11]started send their letters in telling him come back to kufa kufa

[12:14]was the place the center of your father come back to kufa

[12:20]and we will make you Victorious we will give you the we

[12:23]follow you recognize you IM Hussein saw that he had ANS in

[12:28]kufa people that were willing to stand up for what was right

[12:30]and so abdah was to respond to their letters and so he

[12:36]told his Caravan and his followers that they were going to kufa

[12:39]and he told the people to come with him but slowly he

[12:45]realized that those who were to come with him would slowly fall

[12:51]out and filter out each one with their own excuse he would

[12:54]talk to them abdah the son of the second khif he's told

[13:00]them come me abdah looked at him and said you know if

[13:03]you go they're going to kill you we both know they're going

[13:08]to kill you and everyone kept saying todah husin if you go

[13:12]they're going to kill you don't trust would say I know that

[13:25]I will be killed there I know I will be killed but

[13:30]there is no choice for to go to Iraq no choice for

[13:31]to go to kufa and I'll explain why in a moment abdah

[13:34]you know what his response was told him come with me he

[13:39]said show me your name and he kissed him goodbye he was

[13:45]worried about him he loved him he kissed him but after he

[13:48]sends a letter pledging Alle to ya he wants to take care

[13:54]of himself ultimately that's what the story was again and again and

[13:59]again Hussein would ask people around him come with me they would

[14:03]say m take my horse I don't want your horse I want

[14:10]you m take my money I don't need your money I want

[14:12]you I have a wife I have children I can't come with

[14:17]you Hussein he wanted them for his message why Le knew but

[14:21]people say you know did he not know what was he doing

[14:25]he knew exactly what his Destiny was he kept dreams he kept

[14:32]seeing in his dreams canines attacking him and there was one specific

[14:36]canine with black and white SPS that would tear into his flesh

[14:41]which was Shimmer when he saw him in kalala he said you

[14:43]are the canine that I have been dreaming of knew what was

[14:51]coming but why Hussein was going because he had to make a

[14:55]stand here this was different to mua's time muaah would want everyone

[14:58]to look at at him as a Believer he tried to Market

[15:05]himself as but ya was straight complete evil Islam at that time

[15:13]had been completely corrupted it needed something like the blood of in

[15:18]order for it to become alive again these people were praying and

[15:24]then going to fight abdah in when people say that the Shia

[15:30]of kuf are the ones who killed hsein that's not correct why

[15:33]don't we say the sh of kuf were in as well those

[15:38]that were with him of his 72 to 100 were a lot

[15:42]of them were from kufa so why do we say sh kufa

[15:45]made him Victorious they were very brave were there people from kufa

[15:48]in the army of yes there was and Allah will deal with

[15:51]them in KU when Muslim goes he has many people that champion

[16:00]him then Z comes into kufa and he takes over through terrorism

[16:04]and we all know what happens there's a massacre and they kill

[16:11]Muslim the messenger ofin of the Shia in kuf many of them

[16:20]are imprisoned the courageous m is from KU why don't we say

[16:23]that MTAR is from kufa but don't we admit MTAR is from

[16:27]kufa MTAR is a sh from kufa but he imprisoned in a

[16:29]dungeon many of the Shia were imprisoned many of those that were

[16:35]in kufa the kfans ran away and those who didn't were forced

[16:38]and told if you don't join the army of mamm then you

[16:44]and your families will be killed that doesn't justify them joining the

[16:48]Army may Allah deal with them but I'm explaining the situation those

[16:54]people were the ones at the back of the army so the

[16:58]Army against IM Hussein was and the main Battalion much of it

[17:05]came from Damascus and there were many from kufa and then the

[17:07]ones at the back they were most of them were kfans and

[17:11]they would pray for was calling and they would say and they

[17:21]were in the army of does that mean the Shia killed Hussein

[17:25]no it doesn't some people from kufa were with abdah somewhere not

[17:30]with AB abdah why don't we say there were kfans that were

[17:35]so courageous that stood against 30,000 said why because theism of that

[17:46]time is not the shm of now it was still incomplete kufa

[17:51]had lovers of kufa was the place that loved IM Ali but

[17:59]it hadn't yet been complete in their IM in Medina and Mecca

[18:05]there were not lovers of like there were lovers in kufa IM

[18:08]Hussein saw this but he needed to complete their de and the

[18:13]only way to complete their de was the love of sh that

[18:16]could only happen from the sacrifice of you know now when we

[18:21]look at so much of it is represented through imagine without it's

[18:27]not yet complete knew that this was the stand that would cure

[18:31]Islam there would be no Islam No Sunni Islam no sh Islam

[18:36]if wasn't for because ya was taking it over and everyone agrees

[18:39]that yazid was an imbecile everyone agrees this no one says otherwise

[18:44]unless he's imbecile as well everyone knows this so IM Hussein knew

[18:54]that this was the fertile soil by which his blood would nourish

[18:59]and when his blood nourishes this soil the is then complete as

[19:06]a lover of and love of and he has a sacrifice of

[19:15]that completes his identity at the time when Islam had been corrupted

[19:22]it needed this identity so IM Hussein [Applause] husin embarks upon his

[19:40]journey to kalala to kufa First his journey is towards kufa on

[19:45]the way he stopped by a man named H is with a

[19:56]small Battalion at that time he stops abdah on his way and

[20:01]he tells him I can't let you go past the orders that

[20:06]have come are that I can't let you go IM Hussein tries

[20:12]to negotiate with but doesn't allow and so says we have to

[20:15]set up camp in that moment could have fought and fought that

[20:18]small army but he doesn't begin the war he defends he doesn't

[20:25]begin the war so tells him I'm sorry we have to set

[20:29]up camp Hussein was the one who had control over the water

[20:34]and he gave water for that Army to drink and he set

[20:39]up camp and they set up camp then he asks his companions

[20:43]what land is this and they say this land is known as

[20:48]he said is there another name for this land what land is

[20:51]this the companions say it's known as na then he says once

[20:58]again is there another name for this land what land is this

[21:01]and then someone says the of says that's the land my father

[21:09]told me about this land this is where we will be mared

[21:15]and this is where a woman will be taking captives set up

[21:20]your camps and prepare yourselves the and the companions set up their

[21:24]camps and they prepare and they are there for several days day

[21:30]by day Hussein's trying to negotiate with in order to go through

[21:36]to KU but they don't allow and day by day more and

[21:38]more of the army from the muscus and kufa come and the

[21:43]Army grows from 5 to 10 1520 by some accounts 30,000 now

[21:49]they have the numbers Hussein's Army is only between 72 to 100

[21:55]Warriors only those are the ones that came with him 72 to

[22:03]100 courageous Warriors they remain with abdah to make a stand on

[22:08]the seventh day they had been cut off from water before the

[22:13]10th they had been cut off from water on the seventh day

[22:17]they had been without water for two to three days most people

[22:22]don't know that they have been cut off from water earlier when

[22:26]they were cut off from water on the seventh day the children

[22:30]began to scream they are thirsty Su the daughter of IM Hussein

[22:40]was thirsty she came to her father and kept father I'm so

[22:46]thirsty she went to said Uncle I'm so thirsty so went to

[22:54]on the seventh day and said can you retrieve water for the

[23:00]children of said of course say the word he said take the

[23:07]Warriors and go bring back some water this is a story within

[23:13]our reports if you haven't heard it before it's within our reports

[23:17]it's not something that I'm bringing up to you for myself because

[23:19]I know most people have not heard of this story goes to

[23:25]he tells him you take the left Battalion I'll take the right

[23:31]Battalion there are 100 of them and they move towards the River

[23:35]Bank the Warriors of were in front of the river sends a

[23:44]man named he says go and ask if we can retrieve water

[23:47]na goes he says can I have water they say yes so

[23:52]I can take water you can take water then he said can

[23:55]I put water in a container and take it back to Hussein

[23:59]they say no you can drink but Hussein can't drink why can't

[24:06]Hussein drink he said because Hussein is a son of Ali the

[24:11]son of Ali is not allowed to drink the children of Ali

[24:17]are not allowed to drink they had hatred for responded you want

[24:22]me to drink but you won't let my master drink he goes
