[2:08]this program will also continue tomorrow night the topic of tonight's program

[2:15]will be the mission of imam hussain was it a victory or

[2:18]not and this will be delivered by our dear sheikh basil and

[2:22]following his discussion we will have a short mesolithic message recited by

[2:28]sheikh khali so please help me welcome our distinguished speaker sheikh basil

[2:33]haddad with a loud s muhammad foreign of the most difficult tasks

[3:20]is to discuss and actually to grasp the greatness of imam hussain

[3:25]now we can look at this and try to prove this from

[3:30]multiple angles and multiple examples but today i just want to mention

[3:35]one one aspect of this to show that we don't have the

[3:38]capability to truly grasp the greatness of imam hussain alaihis and that

[3:44]is the aratua see i'm sure many of you have heard of

[3:49]many of them in your life at the center at home on

[3:52]different occasions different events you recite this yada or that ziara so

[3:57]we have many many ziyarats and you can open up the books

[4:00]of is the most famous and the most authentic that is where

[4:09]we visit imam hussain so putting everything to the side about the

[4:14]authenticity that's another topic but the conclusion the most famous and the

[4:19]most authentic now let's look at the content how our imams describe

[4:24]imam hussain okay in the very beginning it starts with what peace

[4:30]be upon you all inheritor the imam hussain is the inheritor of

[4:35]these famous personalities adam ibrahim so what's special about this is that

[4:52]this is unique to imam hussain go look at all the ziyarat

[4:54]and how they describe the imams all the different ziyad for the

[4:59]different masu mean and then take a look at zyatwara it's unique

[5:05]because imam and hussain al-islam is the only personality that is described

[5:09]like this that he is the inheritor of all of these important

[5:15]great personalities now what did he inherit when you think of inheritance

[5:19]what comes to mind some people inherit from their parents from their

[5:25]grandparents wealth property some people inherit physical features right what else can

[5:31]you inherit so when it comes to this type of inheritance nobody

[5:35]claims that it's referring to imam hussain al-islam inherited some physical features

[5:42]or inherited you know some property or some wealth and this is

[5:47]this is unique to imam hussain so it has to be something

[5:53]connected to these specific individuals these personalities from prophet adam the ones

[5:59]i mentioned what did they have that was special that was unique

[6:01]to them that was connected to guidance to their divine mission and

[6:05]imam hussain inherited that and no other muslim inherited what imam hussain

[6:12]islam inherited so this topic of what exactly he inherited will save

[6:19]inshallah for tomorrow but just for us to get an idea we

[6:22]can't truly grasp the greatness of imam hussain i mean just looking

[6:27]at ziad atwath a thousand four hundred years later we're still debating

[6:31]on on what the secrets are of what imam hussain inherited from

[6:35]these personalities that makes him unique and different than all the other

[6:39]muslims so today as brother ahmed mentioned the topic is the mission

[6:51]of imam hussain alaihissalam and was it a victory or not so

[6:55]you know i thought for a while what should i talk about

[7:00]what should i talk about there's so much to talk about but

[7:02]you know i'm nobody famous but throughout the few years that i've

[7:09]been around on this planet and this continent even in iraq and

[7:11]seeing different people from different countries and from different communities and from

[7:16]different backgrounds when you talk and discuss about imam hussain about his

[7:20]mission it seems that so many of us are confused we are

[7:25]confused about his mission we're confused about what it was and they

[7:30]were even more confused about if it was a success or not

[7:34]if he even was victorious why do i say this we're confused

[7:39]because when you first ask a young she brother or sister from

[7:42]different backgrounds like i said different communities they'll describe iman hussain's mission

[7:46]as a success but then when they described what happened they sound

[7:51]very confused because it sounds like he wasn't successful actually according to

[7:55]what you're saying so because this topic is important and we out

[7:59]of all people should be able to describe imam hussain alaihis mission

[8:04]better than anybody else and we seem to be confused i think

[8:09]this is probably what i'm going to talk about today some of

[8:13]you might think that it's too dense or this or that but

[8:16]to be honest uh enough is enough you know i think imam

[8:21]hussain deserves more effort than from us when it comes to researching

[8:28]things that are important to us than we do on tick tock

[8:30]right enough is enough you want to keep learning about your religion

[8:35]from instagram reels and tick tock i'm sorry there's no excuse you

[8:37]have to go you have to seek knowledge you have to demand

[8:41]classes you have to demand courses and if you feel like the

[8:44]content is too much then you have to do something about it

[8:47]we live in this day and age where you have so many

[8:48]sources let's stop making excuses for ourselves okay so s [Music] so

[8:59]when it comes to the mission of imam hussain when we i'm

[9:05]going to look at three topics okay his personality okay his mission

[9:10]and the people of kufa now when we look at the narrations

[9:18]all of the history books go collect them all put them in

[9:20]a big line and analyze all the narrations possible okay we're gonna

[9:23]have three main categories that describe imam hussain's personality what kind of

[9:31]person he was describes his mission okay and finally describes the people

[9:36]of coolfoot we're gonna have three different categories and you when i

[9:39]discuss you think how have you been describing these topics okay which

[9:44]category do you follow under which narrative are you supporting sadly so

[9:50]many so many of us are supporting the narrative of the enemies

[9:53]of ahlilbit the enemies of imam hussein so i hope today if

[9:58]you get anything you get this all right and you take it

[10:02]home with you and you make sure you don't support the killers

[10:03]of imam hussain when you discuss about imam hussain and when you

[10:08]teach your children your sons and daughters you make sure you teach

[10:12]them the narrative of the so we have three groups three narratives

[10:15]the first is benign described iman hussain's personality what kind of person

[10:23]he was they described his mission what was the goal and they

[10:27]described the people of kufa the second group the second narrative comes

[10:31]from the beni abbas sadly most of us probably in this room

[10:35]have been pushing their agenda they described his personality his mission and

[10:41]kufa and the final narrative that we should be holding on to

[10:47]is who the narrative of ahibit the imams from the lineage of

[10:52]imam hussein so how did benny umayyad describe imam hussain's personality when

[11:00]we look at the narrations that branch back to benin how did

[11:04]they describe imam hussain as a person you can probably guess they

[11:10]described him as a horrible human being who deserved to be executed

[11:14]in the worst of ways and they justified it and that he's

[11:18]basically worse than any atheist and he's a you know seeking power

[11:21]and he had no right to do anything and he got what

[11:25]he deserved now some of us like oh this is a bit

[11:29]too much no it's not a bit too much you can go

[11:30]to ezra right now university international university in today's day and time

[11:36]we do they describe iman for saying the professors and academic circles

[11:40]described imam hussain exactly the way benny olmay described imam hussain that

[11:45]he was seeking power he was thirsty for the throne he had

[11:49]no right to to you know to rise up against the against

[11:53]yazid and he got what he deserved and yazid had the legitimate

[11:57]right to do what he did okay so that's the personality of

[12:02]mount hassan or koreans benny oh my i doubt any of you

[12:05]or anybody you probably even know describes your mom saying that way

[12:09]so we can say that's a rare group but sadly it still

[12:11]exists today when you go to universities and you look up islamic

[12:15]encyclopedias this is how you'll find some statements describing mom saying like

[12:21]this the second group is who benny abbas how did they describe

[12:25]imam saying well they described iman for saying alaihis name the way

[12:31]mainstream muslims describe imam hussain he's the grandson of the holy prophet

[12:36]right he's a good person he's actually one of the masters of

[12:41]the youth of paradise right and they pretty much stopped there you

[12:45]know he was a good little kid in the time of the

[12:48]prophet in the time of his grandfather he'd play on his back

[12:51]when he's praying and that's pretty much all we know about him

[12:55]really if you go really ask me go go survey people ask

[12:59]them about imam hussain other than when he was a child and

[13:02]other than the last 10 days of his life it's awkward silence

[13:07]most people don't know what to say they don't have any information

[13:10]so let's conclude he was a good person he had the right

[13:17]to rise up against his eid but you know his goal was

[13:19]to what you know to reach the throne it was his legitimate

[13:23]right but you know he depended on a bunch of backstabbing betraying

[13:26]people and uh he wasn't successful okay it's a sad story and

[13:31]didn't like that and then we have a debate we go back

[13:36]to their narrations from the resources how do they describe imam hussain

[13:39]kind of like how i just opened up today's topic that he's

[13:44]the inheritor of all of these important personalities right he's one of

[13:49]the greatest of god's creation and he had a holy mission and

[13:54]it was successful so i mean you already know how the added

[13:58]bit described iman saying so i won't spend too much time on

[14:01]that that's the personality of imam hussain now let's get into his

[14:06]mission and what i'm talking about you can apply this to all

[14:09]of the important personalities you first and foremost should apply this to

[14:14]the holy prophet himself the holy prophet himself we also have these

[14:19]groups of narrations describing his personality in a horrible way horrible horrible

[14:24]way okay and then describing his mission and all of that so

[14:28]we finished the personality let's get into his mission what was imam

[14:34]hussain's mission according to the ruaya the narrations that branch traced back

[14:39]to penny omaya benny omayo says like i mentioned earlier this guy

[14:43]hussein he's like his father he's thirsty for blood he's thirsty for

[14:51]power he just wants the throne and he has no right to

[14:53]do so and he rose up and he got what he deserved

[14:57]his mission was horrible to start with and it was a horrible

[15:02]failure for him all right that's the conclusion now what about benny

[15:09]abbas benny abbas says what mainstream muslims say and many i accidentally

[15:15]say the same thing imam hussain rose up his mission was to

[15:22]seek the caliphate yazid did not deserve to be khalifah it was

[15:27]imam hussain's rights so imam hussain rose up to do what to

[15:31]seek the caliphate the throne it was his right yazid was a

[15:36]horrible person he played with monkeys he drank alcohol he had no

[15:40]credentials to run the muslim empire but imam hussein had so that's

[15:45]what imam hussain's mission was imam hussain's mission was to become khalifa

[15:50]and guess what did he succeed at it obviously not did he

[15:57]nobody claims imam hussain reached the caliphate that's why we commemorate so

[16:01]according to beni abbas imam hussain failed at his mission but it

[16:07]wasn't his fault he had a good intentions but he relied on

[16:11]the worst people you can rely on the people are known for

[16:13]their treachery and betrayal and no loyalty whatsoever the people of kufa

[16:18]and he made a mistake by taking his women and children with

[16:22]him he was advised by his relatives you know not to take

[16:27]the woman and children but he didn't take their advice and he

[16:29]trusted people that you can't trust and sadly he died on the

[16:34]planes of kerbera now i'm focusing on this because when you actually

[16:40]are discussing ninety percent of the time you're actually pushing this agenda

[16:44]that i just mentioned so that's about imam hussain's mission from benny

[16:50]abbas now some of you might be like oh this is too

[16:52]complicated no it's not too complicated you should know your islamic history

[16:56]like i said earlier enough is enough you have enough time to

[17:00]spend on tick tock and instagram reels take some time to learn

[17:04]about your religion it's okay it won't hurt you okay all right

[17:15]so now according to bait the narrative of bait what was the

[17:22]mission of imam hussain was his mission to get reach the caliphate

[17:27]and become the khalifa is that what his mission was so if

[17:35]we want to figure out the mission of iman hussein where should

[17:38]we look where should we go go to the words of iman

[17:43]hussain himself right so imam hussain alaihissalam himself he clarifies his mission

[17:47]right he actually has a mission statement you can say where he

[17:50]makes it very clear what he's looking for and he he makes

[17:54]it very clear he says it's a part of a long letter

[18:00]but i'm just going to take this part he says so i'm

[18:16]just going to focus on that point okay and i'll read you

[18:21]the translation he says i did not rise up for the cause

[18:24]of wickedness or amusement or corruption or oppression but rather the only

[18:30]reason for my uprising is to seek reformation in the nation of

[18:34]my grandfather and to follow the path of my father ali ibn

[18:41]abi talib what i say what did i just read he said

[18:47]what when we want to ask what was the mission of imam

[18:48]hussain he made it very clear he said the only reason why

[18:53]innama according to arabic linguistics is very clear the only the only

[18:58]reason why imam hussain rose up was to seek reformation and the

[19:04]nation of his grandfather prophet muhammad sallallahu alaihi and to follow the

[19:09]steps of his father ali nevitali so if we ever talk about

[19:11]the mission of imam hussain we better get it right we better

[19:15]describe it the right way the way he described it which is

[19:17]what seeking reformation and the nation of his grandfather nothing else he

[19:22]made it very clear so we shouldn't come and start talking left

[19:26]and right and making things up so that's his mission seeking reformation

[19:29]so i'm gonna take the next few minutes we should ask ourselves

[19:34]what happened to the nation that needed reformation why is reformation needed

[19:41]is this a problem with some guy named yazid like i said

[19:44]likes to play with monkeys and drinks alcohol and this type of

[19:49]stuff is it just about yazid and imam hussain wants to just

[19:53]remove yazid is that the whole big deal he said seek reformation

[20:00]so what reformation is needed and i keep focusing on your yazid

[20:06]so you get the point let's not just put all the focus

[20:09]and blame on yazid yes he didn't just come out of nowhere

[20:12]like genghis khan and just invade the muslim empire right yazidi is

[20:15]not of some foreigner who came and took over and imam is

[20:18]trying to kick him out there's a problem in the system there's

[20:23]a problem in the nation now how are we going to even

[20:30]grasp this mission to seek reformation in the nation of my grandfather

[20:34]so one we have to first identify what the problem was with

[20:38]the nation and how he was seeking reformation and two he said

[20:42]and follow the footsteps the path of my father ali've never taught

[20:47]it so we have to go and ask ourselves well what was

[20:49]the mission of imam ali right if we identify the mission of

[20:55]imam ali then we can figure out what imam hussain's mission was

[20:58]because he's continuing the work of his father and now this is

[21:02]all connected so i only have a few minutes so i'm going

[21:06]to try my best to fit it all together in a few

[21:11]short minutes there's a lot to talk about because imam hussain that

[21:17]shahada 61 right the first month the first 10 days of the

[21:22]year 61 is when the tragedy of karbala took place and prophet

[21:29]muhammad when did he pass away in the year 11 the second

[21:32]month of the year 11.

[21:34]so do the math you know talking about a good amount of

[21:39]chunk of years here that a lot has gone on and and

[21:42]you know 50 years so whatever yazidis it was just he he

[21:46]just got on the throne so whatever has been taking place going

[21:50]on for 50 years approximately so let me try to my best

[21:59]to take such a big topic and fit it in five minutes

[22:02]so prophet muhammad what was his mission or what did he accomplish

[22:07]what what did he accomplish we can say he delivered this religion

[22:12]of islam to the world right can we simplify it like that

[22:14]what does this religion of islam contain what is it put together

[22:19]of what are the parts of islam the system of islam whatever

[22:23]you want to call it we got the quran and we have

[22:28]the sunnah when i say the word sunnah i'm referring to the

[22:31]sunnah of the prophet which means his words his actions and his

[22:35]affirmations so the teachings of the prophet the traditions of the prophet

[22:41]is what i'm referring to by the sunnah so we got the

[22:46]quran and the sunnah the quran al hamdulillah it remained up to

[22:50]the time of imam hussain and before imam hussein we'll get into

[22:54]the we can get into those details later but conclusion quran was

[22:57]there there's a book it's right there everybody has it in their

[23:02]shells what happened to the sunnah of the prophet so to con

[23:06]to summarize the sunnah of the prophet the prophet have found established

[23:10]this thing called the sunnah it's a source that we gain our

[23:15]take matters of our religion from when it comes to prayer when

[23:18]it comes to fasting worships transactions spirituality tough city of the quran

[23:25]we refer back to what the sun of the prophet is islam

[23:30]complete without the sin of the prophet you should ask yourself that

[23:36]is islam the religion of islam the system of islam is it

[23:42]complete without the sin of the prophet can you just rely on

[23:44]the quran by itself so some of you like oh that's a

[23:51]pretty simple question obviously not we need the sun of the prophet

[23:54]well it's not that obvious apparently so many muslims think no the

[23:58]book of allah is enough right famous statements by famous individuals the

[24:03]book of allah is all we need we don't we don't need

[24:07]the sunnah so the sunnah of the prophet was established it was

[24:13]there in his life and when he right when he passed away

[24:15]but once he passed away the sunnah of the prophet was attacked

[24:20]it wasn't attacked by the romans it wasn't attacked by the persians

[24:24]it wasn't attacked by the africans it wasn't attacked by the chinese

[24:31]or the europeans the son of the prophet went through a horrible

[24:34]assault all right but who was attacking the son of the prophet

[24:39]turns out it's muslims themselves all right and like i said this

[24:42]is important because what happens to islam when you remove the sin

[24:45]of the prophet it all falls apart the quran itself commands us

[24:48]to hold on to the sunnah and to obey the sunni of

[24:54]the prophet so the sunnah the prophet went through multiple levels stages

[25:01]of attacks by the time imam ali alaihissalam started his mission it

[25:06]was really to revive the sunnah of the prophet and the son

[25:11]of the prophet when you look at it academically and put a

[25:13]timeline together and look at all the events the sun of the

[25:15]prophet was on life support maybe even less okay now let me

[25:20]give you a few examples why what the next few minutes i

[25:25]have so the prophet passes away in the year 11.

[25:27]most of the muslims had joined islam when if we look at

[25:34]the life of the prophet 24 23 years he's preaching islam okay

[25:37]and we want to see out of this year when did when

[25:41]did we have the most amount of people join islam he 13

[25:49]years before hijra he was in mecca in about 10 years and

[25:52]two months he was in medina okay all those years when do

[25:57]we have the highest jump in the muslim population turns out in

[26:00]the very last few months of his life majority of muslims joined

[26:06]islam the last year and a half of his life and the

[26:07]biggest jump was in the last year so the majority of muslims

[26:12]of the arabs at the time they didn't really get a chance

[26:16]to get proper exposure to the sin of the prophet it's not

[26:19]their fault they didn't have access to it then the prophet passes

[26:24]away what's the very first thing the government does now some people

[26:29]might get upset whatever but this is all in the history book

[26:34]so you can go check it out yourself if you have a

[26:35]problem we can discuss after but what did the government do directly

[26:38]after the passing of the prophet very first night according to sahih

[26:43]bukhari and i'll just i'll use some discretion here summarize for you

[26:48]is that they burnt the journals of hadith of the prophet the

[26:52]sun the companions had wrote down the words of the prophet they

[26:58]would sit down and hear him speak and then write down what

[27:00]he would say so you have a bunch of eyewitnesses writing down

[27:04]the different teachings in the words of the prophet and the very

[27:06]first thing the government did is confiscated these journals i didn't burn

[27:10]to them no i know you know there's some justifications they really

[27:14]wanted to preserve the quran and they didn't want people to get

[27:17]confused with the word of god and the word of prophet i

[27:20]mean so they burnt everything okay no problem so they burnt everything

[27:22]but then they didn't stop there next thing is that they prevented

[27:28]the companions from narrating the hadith of the prophets we have multiple

[27:31]multiple examples of this you were you were punished if you narrated

[27:37]the hadith of the prophet that the government did not narrate before

[27:40]you now this is a problem but okay so now we stopped

[27:44]the circulation of hadith we burnt what was already written and then

[27:48]as if things are not worse enough and then this thing called

[27:53]fabrication distortion comes in you got all these fake narrations jumping into

[27:57]place filling in the void and then you have this thing where

[28:01]the ruler of the government head of state can supersede the authority

[28:06]of the prophet the guy can literally get up there in front

[28:10]of all the masses and say in the time of the prophet

[28:16]x y and z were halal and i choose to forbid them

[28:18]i make them haram and anybody who practices in them i'll punish

[28:24]them now this is a huge problem forget about the details the

[28:29]concept here where somebody can publicly supersede the authority of the prophet

[28:32]what happened to the sin of the prophet now why is i've

[28:38]just mentioned to you some concept some points and i want you

[28:43]to put into consideration that i told you earlier the majority of

[28:46]muslims in the town of the prophet had just joined islam right

[28:50]before his passing they were all arab okay except for a few

[28:54]converts from different lands here and there but the majority of muslims

[28:59]were all arab all right then the prophet dies and i mentioned

[29:01]what happened about two to three years after the passing of the

[29:06]prophet what happened politically when you go look at the maps and

[29:10]territories and borders the muslim government picked up the arab tribes especially

[29:15]the yemeni tribes are known for their population and their warriors split

[29:18]each tribe in half and sent them where one group went to

[29:23]the byzantine empire eastern roman empire and the other group went to

[29:26]the persian empire and within a few short months two massive empires

[29:32]fall to the muslim armies some battles took place some battles didn't

[29:37]take place conclusion is now you look at the islamic borders and

[29:41]they just multiplied it went from a few guys in the arabian

[29:46]peninsula most of it was desert and now we're talking about almost

[29:49]to the atlantic ocean from one side and the other side to

[29:53]the borders of pakistan all right what happened to the muslim population

[29:57]who became now the majority of muslims the majority of muslims now

[30:04]became persians and romans citizens of the byzantine empire and citizens of

[30:09]the persian empire did these people have know the prophet did these

[30:12]people get to sit down and chat with the prophet and listen

[30:16]from the prophet no they're given the quran this is the book

[30:20]of that was revealed to prophet muhammed and whatever they know about

[30:23]what the prophet said is whatever the government taught them so let's

[30:28]just focus on the people of sham real quick on the father

[30:34]of this yazid he was the spiritual leader of sham al-kubra for

[30:37]almost like 50 years where he's teaching them what prophet muhammad said

[30:45]and did and his policies so we have a huge problem here

[30:49]because the majority of muslims don't know the sin of the prophet

[30:53]now the prophet when i say he died in the year 11

[30:58]24 years later is when imam ali al-islam became khalifa and that

[31:03]only lasted for four years so if you want to guess what

[31:08]the mission of imam ali is i just told you about a

[31:11]bunch of important events that took place in the nation of prophet

[31:14]muhammed prior to imam ali becoming you can just guess what his

[31:20]mission was and because we don't have enough time to mention quotes

[31:23]the mission of imam ali was to revive the sunnah of the

[31:28]prophet did imam ali do so did he succeed yes but where

[31:30]only in the limited territories that he had control over the areas

[31:36]that maui had control over imam ali was not able to get

[31:40]the sunnah the purified sunnah of the prophet to those people okay

[31:46]so so that was the mission of imam ali imam ali only

[31:50]succeeded in the eastern territories but the western territories he was not

[31:54]able to get his mission that way all right then imam hasan's

[31:58]treaty comes and he breaks that blockade and allows people to mix

[32:02]now okay let me just uh because of time i lost track

[32:06]real quick so did imam hussain succeed in his mission his mission

[32:10]was to seek reformation right so if we look at imam hussain's

[32:16]mission just in his lifetime we can't say yes he did in

[32:18]his lifetime technically majority of the muslims still are under maui's rule

[32:23]now his policies they didn't have access to the sun of the

[32:27]prophet but if we look at imam hussain's mission if we look

[32:29]at the events that took place after and we look did the

[32:34]sin of the prophet start to reach the masses then yes it

[32:38]did imam hussain's mission led to the collapse of this system that

[32:43]was filtering and and holding limiting the sunni of the prophet and

[32:46]we find that the grandsons of imam hussain are the ones who

[32:51]led what paved the way led the way when it came to

[32:53]spreading the sunna of the prophet so one if we ask didima

[32:58]saint succeeded his mission yes he did why because he said so

[33:03]what he said so he said very clearly woman whoever joins us

[33:13]will be martyred but whoever does not will not witness the victory

[33:18]so he made it very clear it was victorious when we look

[33:21]at the words of the imams it was a victory now let

[33:25]me just throw at you some numbers and i'll end because of

[33:27]time to prove imam her saying his mission of reform seeking reformation

[33:32]was a victory we can look at the imams after him so

[33:38]imam ali alayhi salaam this is the research of sheikh tusi muhammad

[33:44]hassan one of the sheikh of the shia over a thousand years

[33:46]ago he established housing njef he's one of our greatest scholars and

[33:50]he's you know he provided for us some very deep research where

[33:53]he followed up on all the narrations in the chain of narrators

[33:56]and he compiled for us some statistics on the the amount of

[34:00]narrators from the imams so imam ali only 442 people narrated from

[34:07]him that i heard alibne say one two three imam hassan only

[34:14]41 different people said i heard al hasanev xyz imam and her

[34:20]saying only 109 different people narrated from him all right now i'm

[34:25]going to jump a little bit look at imam assad because of

[34:29]the revolution of imam hussain paved way for imam assad how many

[34:32]people said i heard jaffare muhammad say xyz 3217 different muslims narrated

[34:42]from imam assad and what was imam assad teaching the people what

[34:48]were the narrations that came out of his mouth other than the

[34:51]purified sunnah of the prophet inshallah tomorrow we will continue this topic

[34:55]due to time i'm going to cut it off now alhamdulillah muhammad
