[2:06]following is the narration of the sermon of sayida zainab salam and

[2:16]the medjlist of yezidan sham all praises due to allah master of

[2:25]the worlds and peace and blessings be on my grandfather the prophet

[2:33]allah was right when he said evil will be the end for

[2:40]those who committed evil because they rejected our communications and used to

[2:47]mock at them oh yazid do you think that god has made

[2:52]you honorable and made us contemptible now that's in your belief you've

[2:59]held us as captives have blocked the earth zones and the heavens

[3:07]horizons and have left no solution for us do you think that

[3:13]your reputation before god has led you to victory you crow with

[3:18]pleasure now that the world has turned for you our affairs are

[3:22]arranged for you and our government is allocated to you get off

[3:29]your high horse have you not read in the quran when allah

[3:34]says let not those who disbelieve think that our granting them respite

[3:39]is good for their souls rather we grant them respite so they

[3:46]may add to their sins and for them there is a painful

[3:53]chastisement o yazid o you whose father was freed by my grandfather

[3:57]is it fair that you place your wives and ladies behind the

[4:04]curtain while the daughters of the prophet are taken from city to

[4:09]city as captives is it fair that you disgrace them and you

[4:14]unveil their faces so that all can see them from the stranger

[4:21]to the acquaintance from the noble to the ignoble while there is

[4:28]none to defend them how can i hope for sympathy and compassion

[4:32]from someone who came from the true deliverer of the noble and

[4:37]was born from the flesh of the martyrs oh yes eid you

[4:43]don't consider yourself a sinner nor a sin over this mortal blow

[4:49]you boast about your disbeliever ancestors wishing that they were present to

[4:56]see what you have done you poke the teeth of abi abdullah

[5:01]the heavenly progeny of abdul muttalib the children of abdul muttalib and

[5:10]the heavenly stars on earth but will be patient since soon you'll

[5:15]be joining them and then you'll wish that you were dumb and

[5:21]that you had not acted what you acted or said what you

[5:25]said we'll be patient oh allah give us our revenge and our

[5:35]jew right and give him a painful chastisement by allah you've clothed

[5:40]your own skin and flesh soon you'll meet the messenger of allah

[5:47]where distress turns into tranquility with the heavy burden that you have

[5:54]you've held his children as captives you've disgraced them and you've shed

[6:01]the blood of his house but do not forget what the quran

[6:05]says when it states do not count those who have died in

[6:11]the way of allah as being dead rather they are alive receiving

[6:15]sustenance from their lord enough for us is that god is the

[6:23]judge muhammad is the supporter and is the defender those who pave

[6:27]the way for you to dominate over us will find out whose

[6:32]army is weaker and whose thoughts are inferior although the plight has

[6:38]made me speak to you i find speaking to you of little

[6:45]value but i find scolding you is great therefore i'll continue to

[6:50]scold you the eyes are tearful and the heart is sorrowful how

[6:54]ironic it is that the members of the party of allah are

[6:59]killed by the members of the party of satan our blood drips

[7:04]from your pores and our flesh drips from your teeth but oh

[7:13]yazid however hard you try you'll never obliterate our love and our

[7:17]memory from the hearts of the people what you consider as booty

[7:25]today you will realize is indemnity tomorrow oh yes your ideas are

[7:33]unstable and your government is transitory soon you'll meet the lord and

[7:37]you'll hear the cry of the removal of the mercy and the

[7:40]curse on the people who were oppressors i thank allah for concluding

[7:48]the mission of the chiefs of paradise with prosperity and accommodating them

[7:57]with paradise all i ask allah is for the forgiveness and for

[8:02]the elevation of ranks for allah is the omnipotent the following was

[8:12]the sermon of the great female saints no doubt she deserves the

[8:20]title of saint or indeed the title of sainthood because without a

[8:25]doubt when we come to the term saint we either use it

[8:29]in our everyday language or we use it with religious connotations in

[8:34]terms of our everyday language whenever you come across somebody of impeccable

[8:39]pure character straight away you say that person's a saint because you

[8:44]recognize that the person's morality is the highest morality you recognize that

[8:49]their nature is the purest nature so when you talk of a

[8:54]person who you want to give the best character reference to you

[8:57]straight away say that that person is a saint in opposite to

[9:02]that person is a sinner there is an opposite between a saint

[9:07]and a sinner or a saint and a devil because a person

[9:09]who is a saint in our everyday language is someone in reality

[9:14]who you look at and they cannot put a foot wrong put

[9:17]them in a difficult moment or put them in times of prosperity

[9:21]and peace and you'll see that they cannot do any wrong so

[9:27]in our everyday language the term saint is applied likewise however you

[9:31]find that the term saint or sainthood has religious connotations as well

[9:37]if one was to look at for example religion such as christianity

[9:41]there are certain people who may be seen as saints in their

[9:47]lifetime or indeed saints after they die so you may have for

[9:51]example saint augustine on one hand or you may have somebody like

[9:54]mother teresa on the other you'll find that with sainthood in religion

[9:58]normally there are a number of key aspects that are related to

[10:04]a saint on the first level is shifa that there is a

[10:09]recognition of a sort of miraculous feature in relation to that personality

[10:12]so when you go to that personality shrine for example you feel

[10:17]that there is a chance that somebody who otherwise is unwell or

[10:22]otherwise is physically challenged may be cured by allah subhanahu wa ta'ala

[10:27]because the name of the saint has been invoked ask anybody who

[10:32]has been for example to shun they will say to you that

[10:37]all of a sudden while you are visiting the grave of say

[10:42]this you feel that all of a sudden somebody has screamed when

[10:45]you go near them they say that someone blind can now see

[10:49]they say that someone who was paralyzed can now walk they say

[10:53]that someone who may have had a virus or an illness that's

[10:58]now gone because the first aspect of any saint is there is

[11:01]a concept of a cure within their character what we call shifa

[11:06]so you find that if for example you come near any area

[11:09]where a saint is buried whether in islam or other than islam

[11:14]the people expect some sort of remedy for their bodies from being

[11:20]around that area say this on the first level in being a

[11:24]female saint is related to the shifa aspect related to her shrine

[11:28]being a center of curing those who are sick or those who

[11:32]are unwell on the second aspect is shafa intercessory that a person

[11:37]feels if they ask god by mentioning zainab or mentioning the oppression

[11:44]against zainab or mentioning the loneliness of zainab or mentioning how zainab

[11:50]was a stranger or bringing the title of masa next to zainab

[11:54]then allah wa ta'ala would answer your because you've mentioned zainab ultimately

[11:58]allah is the one who cures allah is the one who answers

[12:02]supplications but there's an intercessory feel to any saint when you call

[12:09]out mother teresa for example some people did it's because they felt

[12:13]there's a connection between her and between god and likewise for us

[12:16]when we come to the female scent that is zainab there is

[12:19]a feeling of wasilla on the one hand and shafa on the

[12:24]other wasilla in this lifetime if for example somebody wanted to ask

[12:28]allah through the zainab and shafa i went on the day of

[12:32]judgment that on the day of judgment i ask allow me to

[12:37]have the intercession of this saint by the name of zainab the

[12:40]same way i'd want the intercession of the saint known as maryam

[12:44]or the saint known as khadijah for example so that's on the

[12:51]second level on the third level a saint for what reason on

[12:53]the third level because that you can have vows made with her

[12:58]name what you call a man or you call another or you

[13:03]call a suffra these things were part and parcel of those who

[13:06]for example either lived around the shrine of say the same allah

[13:11]or exist until today in parts of iraq or parts of pakistan

[13:13]or parts of iran that someone does a suffrage in the name

[13:16]of zainab alaihis some people do it every tuesday for example in

[13:20]the name of says so then the third aspect which is what

[13:23]which is the aspect of another using the name of zainab how

[13:27]many times in our cultures we have a man that's in the

[13:31]name of hazrat abbas bibi fatima these are all wonderful ways of

[13:35]connecting with allah with the bait that's on the third level on

[13:41]the fourth level a saint has this position of guardianship and a

[13:47]position of love any saint is either a guardian of a message

[13:52]or a person who's the object of love either the object of

[13:58]the love of other saints of allah like her brother hussain alaihissalam

[14:02]or the object of love of her followers what is called will

[14:08]i and walaya so she is the object of love of the

[14:11]followers and the guardian of the message of allah because the reality

[14:16]is that without zainab islam would not have been protected after karbala

[14:21]she became the guardian of allah's message on earth but the fifth

[14:27]area of any state is fundamental what is it it's that through

[14:31]the hardest trials and most difficult times they come out as a

[14:36]bright shining light look at any saint and you'll always see that

[14:38]they had to live lives of trials poverty for example loss of

[14:42]life loss of wealth torture oppression but at the end they look

[14:48]at the world with only seeing beauty rather than seeing negativity they

[14:53]look at the world and they realize that number one everybody is

[14:57]destined to die if rasool because if there's one person who could

[15:03]get away with it if god wanted to it would be him

[15:06]ultimately the saint looks at the world with a perspective that's a

[15:11]different perspective and that's why it surprises me when i see courses

[15:17]on gender and feminism that hardly ever is that matriarchal female who's

[15:24]speaking out about the inherent patriarchal authority normally who's mentioned aisha the

[15:30]wife of rasulallah is normally mentioned as the archetype female prototype role

[15:35]model because when she fought imam ali alayhis salaam at the battle

[15:40]of jamal and when she led thousands of soldiers to fight imam

[15:43]ali and when she led thousands of soldiers to fight imam al-hasan

[15:49]and imam al-hussein alaihi when she led that army many in gender

[15:54]studies would look at her and say that is true feminism that

[15:59]here is a lady who was leading an army of men against

[16:03]the caliph of her time of course to sum this contradictory when

[16:08]you see somebody telling you that my role model is shown you

[16:11]say why say because she led an army of men but an

[16:15]army against who as in surely you have a conscience that on

[16:17]the day of judgment you have to say that i admire the

[16:20]one who led an army against al-muhammad and against imam amir al-mu'min

[16:25]al-issalam but it's okay if a person wants to study this that's

[16:29]one framework but another framework is zainab's mother and zainab on the

[16:34]one hand you have zainab's mother who was the ultimate of sheery

[16:39]female sainthood because she is the greatest to have ever walked on

[16:42]the face of the earth who gave already a prototype in the

[16:45]feminist worldview that here is a lady standing up against the males

[16:49]of her time who are trying to confiscate her rights of property

[16:54]and inheritance who did zainab therefore learned this from from her mother

[16:59]that zainab in damascus stands in front of the male of her

[17:06]time in front of who the patriarchal inherited authority of the umayyads

[17:11]and shows that nothing's going to stop me from speaking out even

[17:16]though she knows she's a slap away although she's been slapped so

[17:22]much before and even though she knows she's a kick away even

[17:24]though she had been kicked so much before and even though she

[17:27]knew she's a whip away but she knew she had been whipped

[17:29]so much before but she showed for all females and males around

[17:34]the world that don't let the power structure in front of you

[17:38]degrade you stand up use the gifts that god's given you so

[17:43]for us when we look at say that zainab the female saint

[17:47]every aspect of intercession of cure of a relationship with god and

[17:52]relationship with love and relationship with trial emerges let us tonight examine

[17:59]the context of the emergence of the saint zainab when it came

[18:02]to sham and i'd like to do this in the following stages

[18:04]number one what had taken place just before this sermon and which

[18:10]lines of poetry were not only provocative but were actual kuffar of

[18:16]yazid and highlighted his upbringing number two how does she use the

[18:20]quran from the beginning to highlight the don't say allah loves everybody

[18:24]because there are some who do not receive allah's love number three

[18:29]how did she highlight to yezid that you crawl with pleasure now

[18:34]that our government is allocated to you but get off your high

[18:37]horse long life doesn't mean good human being number four how does

[18:42]she focus on the hijab and on the sitter and on the

[18:47]fact that that veil should not stop anyone from reaching the highest

[18:52]level number five how did she remind him about the fact that

[18:56]his grandmother was a cannibal and that just in case you forgot

[19:01]that's the type of family that you come from number six how

[19:06]did she show a person's body dies what a shaheed's legacy remains

[19:09]alive number seven how did she highlight that yazid you're from the

[19:15]army of shaytan anyone who says about you is from that same

[19:18]army and finally how did she highlight that however hard every empire

[19:27]tries however hard every single paid author tries you'll never remove the

[19:30]love of zainab from the hearts of the people let's examine this

[19:35]and dissect the topic in complete depth the context of what took

[19:41]place with sayada zainab highlights the kuffar of yazid bin morawiya the

[19:50]disbelief completely in the religion of islam because when you have some

[19:54]people who will say that yazid is a khalifa you shouldn't say

[19:56]much about him leave him alone don't say good but don't say

[20:01]bad don't curse and so on yazid quoted lines of poetry which

[20:06]were the most provocative lines just before say the zainab salam had

[20:09]given her son her sermon of course yes he had already been

[20:14]provoking he had cursed imam ali alayhi he had cursed imam al-hussein

[20:19]he had been poking the teeth of imam al-hussein he had already

[20:24]provoked them non-stop zainab was the saint a part of her sainthood

[20:30]is her purity and her immaculate nature she is not affected by

[20:36]his animalistic instincts she maintains her composure even when yazid had invited

[20:41]somebody who was sitting next to him who said to him that

[20:45]that young girl daughter of hussein i want her to be my

[20:47]slave and of course that daughter of the imam turned around to

[20:50]her auntie said auntie orphan and then slave is this fair say

[20:54]the zainab turned around to him and made it clear to him

[20:57]there's no way that you touch her my grandfather brought your grandfather

[21:01]into this religion it's because of him that your gran your father

[21:04]was guided so therefore you don't come near us she had already

[21:09]maintained her composure yes he'd came out with lines of poetry what

[21:13]were those lines yezid's grandfather from which side his great-grandfather from his

[21:20]mom's side was the leader of the opposition at the battle of

[21:25]badr by the name of babin yazid had loved his grandparents and

[21:30]his great-grandparents and he wanted to boast because this was a day

[21:34]of victory he would always repeat carbella for better he would make

[21:39]that clear we lost in better we won at so he made

[21:45]it clear that you know what this is the best moment for

[21:50]me to remind ali's daughter muhammad's granddaughter that we are now victorious

[21:55]he used the lines of poetry of a famous poet by the

[22:01]name of abdullah the son of zabara that was a famous jahali

[22:05]poet and in the poetry he changed the couple and added a

[22:08]couple of lines he said later as she better i wish my

[22:14]ancestors from badr were here now now better was how many years

[22:19]before this incident better was 59 years before this incident in other

[22:25]words the whole of karbala was the return of kofor and shirk

[22:28]versus islam simple as that don't bring me none of this benny

[22:33]hashim versus benny umayyapolito this is no this is islam he said

[22:38]later ashiyaki be [Music] he praises his ancestors boasts about them i

[22:54]wish they were here to see what i've done then he says

[22:59]what hashem played with i ask you the message of rasulullah is

[23:03]kingship no message of rasulullah is deen he says no in our

[23:13]eyes we never saw it as that you were a king for

[23:17]a certain period to play they played with kingdom there was no

[23:26]news that came and there was no revelation there's no why means

[23:32]i reject jibrael i reject that muhammad of course if you're capturing

[23:39]his granddaughter and putting her in chains i don't really think you

[23:41]believe he's a prophet and on top of that this whole idea

[23:46]of prophethood and islam i reject completely when he said that saying

[23:51]felt at this moment it's the moment the saint has to rise

[23:54]the moment that all of her abilities to be a guardian of

[23:59]god's message to bring the love of the people back to islam

[24:01]to be an intercessor for the people between them and allah with

[24:05]her immaculate nature has to emerge she stood up he has eaten

[24:09]everybody around her and she began and when she began what did

[24:14]she say straight away praising allah i ask you when you go

[24:18]through trials and tribulations how many of us say alhamdulillah even though

[24:21]we go through trials it's a test because you always have those

[24:25]doubts that creep into your mind mentally why should i say alhamdulillah

[24:30]look at what i'm going through alhamdulillah when everything's going well when

[24:33]things aren't going well i don't say alhamdulillah no say that zainab

[24:38]highlighted to us straight away all praise is due to allah master

[24:41]of all the worlds alhamdulillah straight away because she's highlighting that my

[24:47]lord has given me more than he's taken from me if you

[24:50]were to sit down and count how much allah has given you

[24:52]even with cannabilla and kufan jam she believed that allah has given

[24:59]her more than what allah took from her i said all of

[25:10]these you can count 17 18 20 25 have you counted the

[25:15]number of breaths i breathed on that way you counted the number

[25:18]of for example people who i was able to look at with

[25:23]my eyes that i was in good health and so on look

[25:24]if you count how many things allah has blessed us with it's

[25:27]a lot more than what allah has taken from us easier said

[25:30]than done by the way easier than done because when the crunch

[25:33]hits it's much easier for you to say i don't feel like

[25:37]praying and then you can go on this actual run of missing

[25:40]salah for six weeks in a row simply because things aren't going

[25:45]well it's on my terms when it goes well i pray when

[25:46]it's not i don't care about you no zainab said no in

[25:52]all moments always say allah will give you even more all praise

[25:56]is due to allah master all the worlds and peace and blessings

[26:00]be on my grandfather just in case the people of sham do

[26:02]not know who i am on my grandfather the prophet then she

[26:07]said a very important line where she made it clear that allah

[26:12]doesn't just love all his creation there is this myth that allah

[26:16]loves all his creation absolute lord of nonsense allah for example those

[26:26]who are pious allah loves the truthful allah loves the charitable but

[26:33]the same quran and hadith says allah dislikes the hypocrite allah described

[26:37]dislikes the liar allah dislikes the oppressor so when those people come

[26:42]and tell me allah loves all his creation and therefore maybe allah

[26:47]loves yazid you show me i as in allah why don't you

[26:50]show me in allah evil will be the end for those who

[26:57]committed evil because they rejected our communication and used to mock it

[27:04]she says allah says in the quran evil will be the end

[27:08]for those who committed evil because they rejected our communication not just

[27:12]because they rejected they made fun of it there are non-muslims living

[27:16]in london today they reject islam they don't make fun of islam

[27:19]they just say we don't agree with the theological concepts related to

[27:24]islam but they don't make fun yazid when he begins to poke

[27:27]the teeth of imam al-hussein is making fun of the religion yazid

[27:30]when he has taken muslim females as captives is making fun of

[27:36]the religion especially the granddaughters of rasulallah so those who come and

[27:42]say that allah says evil will be the end for those who

[27:45]committed evil they rejected our communication used to mock it then she

[27:48]said oh yes do you think god made you honorable now and

[27:53]made us contemptible now that the world has turned for you our

[27:56]government is allocated to you and our affairs are there for you

[28:01]you've blocked the earth zones and the heavens horizons and you've held

[28:04]us captives because sometimes yazid like kevin ziad they used to say

[28:10]if i'm bad why's allah put me here if i'm bad why's

[28:13]allah made me win and made your brother lose predestination and free

[28:19]will allah predestined that i will win when i killed your brother

[28:23]wasn't me was allah she looked at him what did she say

[28:28]she said you think that god's made you honorable because now you

[28:32]have government you clearly haven't read the quran let not those who

[28:36]think that we grant them long lives is good for their souls

[28:39]it's not we grant them long life we give them power so

[28:44]they may add more sins and for them there is a painful

[28:48]chastisement how many times you've seen dictators in power you're like this

[28:53]dictator lives for 70 years and my son dies at five this

[28:58]dictator lives for 75 years and this mawlana died at 35 this

[29:02]dictator lives for 81 years and this islam is executed at 36

[29:06]allah says don't worry because we give them long life this is

[29:11]their dunya let them enjoy because in for them there is a

[29:16]painful chastisement i've seen people who say if really god exists why

[29:18]is it bad people get all the wealth bad people get all

[29:22]the money bad people get all of this and we don't get

[29:24]anything no no allah saying let them let them let them enjoy

[29:29]these people for them there's a painful chastisement she continues by saying

[29:32]oh yes he'd oh you whose father was freed subhan allah this

[29:38]is a huge line oh you whose father muawiyah was freed by

[29:42]my grandfather notice she is not saying your father converts to the

[29:49]religion of allah with reflection and contemplation and was a great sahabi

[29:54]of my grandfather maha we are the most you could give him

[29:55]as a sahabi as a favor a job that he was a

[30:00]scribe of the prophet peace be upon that's the most you could

[30:04]give him but this is the stupidity of our history the man

[30:07]who was victorious at bader and and is the same level as

[30:14]a scribe as this islamic history is full of rubbish i tell

[30:19]you this religion it has certain parts where the people wrote history

[30:23]really mocked the religion the man who has an apple will look

[30:27]at ali and mohawk and say ayna how in god's name is

[30:31]a man who's been part of this religion all this time put

[30:34]on the same level as a man who rasulullah freed freed when

[30:39]you free someone who'd you free you free a prisoner don't you

[30:42]you're free an ex-convict don't you otherwise why are you freeing who

[30:46]are you freeing on the day of the opening of mecca mohawk

[30:50]we are free the rest of you all of you are free

[30:54]go ahead she says is it just is it fair or son

[31:01]of those who are freed not those who converted not the muslims

[31:05]in other words she's saying you know what your dad is your

[31:10]dad's an ex-con prisoner the one of the most evil people and

[31:13]my grandad let him out of prison as amnesty on the day

[31:17]of the opening of mecca do you know that line how much

[31:20]bravery you need to say honestly do you know what bravery you

[31:22]need because literally there and then he could have all that someone

[31:24]just beheaded her there and then but zainab was highlighting slowly just

[31:29]because i'm a female doesn't mean that i cannot break the power

[31:32]structure of the time i can destroy the poison that sits in

[31:35]sham and has sat for so long because in zainab's eyes and

[31:40]this sermon that poisonous weed didn't begin with yazid poisonous weed had

[31:44]grown for a long time it's been there existing for a long

[31:50]time oh yazid oh you whose father was freed by my grandfather

[31:53]is it fair your wives are all protected and covered and the

[31:58]granddaughters of the holy prophet peace be upon his family are taken

[32:01]as captives as in when she's saying that she wants sham to

[32:05]listen not yet she knows yazid is a gun case yes he

[32:10]is pure filth on earth but the people of sham may be

[32:13]the propaganda that's affected them they might change their mind they might

[32:16]listen and think to themselves that what's going on this is not

[32:20]right what is she saying that the granddaughters of rasulullah remember many

[32:25]of these people of sham had either hate for imam ali which

[32:29]i'll come to in forthcoming lectures or some of them still had

[32:34]this reverence for the prophet peace be upon his family so when

[32:37]she says the granddaughters of rasulullah some of them will be thinking

[32:41]hold on a minute granddaughters who's she referring to and from there

[32:45]she then goes on to say what is it fair that you

[32:50]disgrace us by unveiling our faces you see for her the sitter

[32:55]what we later called the hijab was fundamental in her sainthood you

[33:01]could be someone who's knowledgeable and you could be someone who for

[33:05]example is loved but there still needs to be a balance of

[33:08]the physical and the social modesty male or female we say when

[33:14]it came to the veil you know very well that they had

[33:17]snatched it off according to some narrations that snatched it off them

[33:21]somewhere in kerbela or in kufa or in sham somewhere along the

[33:28]lines when she says is it fair that you disgrace us by

[33:30]unveiling our faces it means that part of my sanctity as a

[33:37]saint was even my face is not shown to anybody that's why

[33:42]you find people like allah may allah bless your soul would mention

[33:47]that this covering of the faith can at times be widely obligatory

[33:52]where some mention for example if you believe your wife is beautiful

[33:55]and people look at her then she would have to cover her

[33:59]face others might say it's optional say that zainab says is it

[34:01]fair that you disgrace us by unveiling our faces nobody used to

[34:06]know what zainab salam used to look like except imam ali alayhi

[34:10]salaam except her husband abdullah bin jafal accepted now she says is

[34:16]it fair oh yes that you unveil our faces today we have

[34:19]many lovers of cedar zainab amongst the girls in our community amongst

[34:23]the ladies in our community many of them in some cases are

[34:27]not given confidence when they start covering themselves covering their hair only

[34:31]forget the face they cover their hair only and you find some

[34:34]people in the community attacking them judging them telling them you don't

[34:38]look good not giving them respect on the country what you're doing

[34:43]you're going in the line of say that and we have some

[34:46]girls who don't cover try and now start with these majalis going

[34:52]on the path of zainab alayhis salaam zainab is not just a

[34:55]story for you to cry from she's telling you that look part

[34:58]of my sainthood and purity in the eyes of allah which some

[35:02]believe affords her and asthma was that i cared that i had

[35:08]a certain sanctity to my physical and my social appearance there are

[35:12]some will say to you i won't wear the hijab but i

[35:16]have a good heart there's some who'll wear the hijab but have

[35:18]evil hearts we need to look at the balance of the two

[35:21]you can wear a hijab and have a good heart why is

[35:24]it that one side looks at those who are covered and say

[35:27]you know the girls who wear hijab they're all hypocrites the other

[35:30]side you know that girl doesn't wear hijab she is not religious

[35:33]no no try and not judge each other and try and build

[35:39]together zainab and kulthum and the ladies built together in sham they

[35:42]stood firm with each other they weren't judging each other you don't

[35:44]wear hijab that means you're evil or if you wear hijab you're

[35:49]a hypocrite there's good apples and bad apples everywhere but there needs

[35:51]to be an encouragement she says is it fair that you disgrace

[35:55]us by unveiling our faces so that everybody can see us from

[35:59]strangers to the acquaintance sham had some people who knew rasulullah like

[36:05]was passing by and it had strangers who don't even know rasulallah

[36:15]and there are dogs in charm as well there are people who

[36:20]are evil while there is none to protect us and then she

[36:23]blatantly cuts him the way you cut asha shower how did she

[36:26]cut him she said to him how can i hope for sympathy

[36:31]and compassion from someone who came from the true deliverer of the

[36:37]noble and from the flesh of the matter this is pure outright

[36:40]tabarra in one line the jew yazid how do i expect sympathy

[36:43]and compassion from someone like you your flesh has come from a

[36:48]cannibal grandma his grandma the piece of filth on the earth was

[36:51]a cannibal she was a cannibal who used to eat who each

[36:55]human being like hamza alayhi salaam cut up his liver and give

[37:00]it to me i ask you you expect what to come from

[37:05]naturally honestly someone whose grandmother is a cannibal disgusting human being hind

[37:09]was and they try and make an excuse for her i don't

[37:13]mind let them try because their framework has nothing to do with

[37:17]mine but they try they say that you know what she converted

[37:18]she converted and became religious later might as well say everyone became

[37:21]religious everyone the ex-convict became religious the cannibal became religious and they

[37:28]tell me you have this concept called infallibility and i've only got

[37:31]12.

[37:31]imagine you guys how many you have so hint what did he

[37:35]say he said yazid said clearly he looked and said zainab looked

[37:40]at him she said how do i hope for sympathy and compassion

[37:43]someone who came from true deliverer of the noble born from the

[37:46]flesh of the martyr oh yes you don't consider yourself a sinner

[37:51]over what you've done he didn't believe he had sinned why why

[37:53]have i sinned what's the sin nor do you consider yourself a

[37:59]sinner over this mortal blow you boast about your disbeliever ancestors remember

[38:04]what did he say i wish my ancestors from better way later

[38:11]she says you boast about your disbeliever ancestors he used to boast

[38:22]about them she replies to him you boast about your disbeliever ancestors

[38:25]wishing that they were present to see what you've done you poke

[38:30]the teeth of abi abdullah imagine imagine where islam had reached while

[38:37]it breaks the heart and even a person chokes just thinking about

[38:46]it believe you me and he gets the stick and he pokes

[38:56]the teeth which animal would poke the teeth of a decapitated head

[39:04]i ask you who would do that my dear brothers and sisters

[39:07]this is the islam that we're proud of what you said to

[39:12]me anyone can become khalifa here there you go there you go

[39:16]you had your wish anyone became khalifa yes it became khalifa pokes

[39:19]the teeth she says you poke the teeth of abba abdullah the

[39:23]children of abdul muttalib the heavenly stars on earth what a description

[39:29]heavenly stars on earth and then she says but we'll be patient

[39:36]fundamental for the saint in the face of trial is the archetype

[39:42]of patience believing in allah that allah has with the patient we'll

[39:48]be patient since soon you'll be joining them you're going to die

[39:50]two years after this he died then you'll wish that you had

[39:56]not said what you said or acted what you acted you'd wish

[40:00]that you were deaf and dumb so you wouldn't say what you

[40:07]said or acted what you acted then she prays to allah in

[40:10]front of yazid because she knows the power of a female saint

[40:14]or the power of any saint is the dua they constantly have

[40:16]with god that relationship because imam ali said dua is the weapon

[40:21]of the believer so what did she say she said i pray

[40:26]to allah that he gives us our jew right takes our revenge

[40:30]gives him a painful chastisement have you ever seen bravery like zainab

[40:36]maybe her mother fatima and that's why you find after that she

[40:40]said oh yazid you've now clothed in your own skin and flesh

[40:45]that you've virtually laid your grave for yourself you will soon meet

[40:50]the messenger of allah turns distress into tranquility with the heavy burden

[40:56]that you've had you've held his children as captives all these children

[41:00]were next to her you've disgraced him and at the same time

[41:03]what have you done you've shed the blood of his house all

[41:07]but then she makes a statement to everybody in sham but you've

[41:09]all read the verse of the quran look how fundamental the quran

[41:12]is to zainab to the saint she says you've read the quran

[41:16]what does the quran say don't count those who have died in

[41:19]the way of allah this is pouring cold water on fire don't

[41:23]count those who have died in the way of allah as being

[41:28]dead don't worry they are alive receiving from allah my brother you

[41:33]think you've killed him my brother's legacy is above the grave my

[41:37]brother you think you've decapitated his head my brother's message will continue

[41:42]forever my brother you think you finished him he's just moved to

[41:45]a world known as barzach and in that world he's the highest

[41:49]don't count those who have died in the way of allah has

[41:51]been dead rather they are alive receiving from that enough for us

[41:54]is allah with us yes is rasulullah with us yes is us

[41:59]yes that's enough for us and those who pave the way for

[42:03]you to dominate over us yes you're not the problem there are

[42:09]those who pave the way for you who why do they tell

[42:13]you don't do allah not on yazid why why do they say

[42:16]don't do lana if you do you must do on the one

[42:21]who appointed yazid and if you do lana on the one who

[42:22]appointed yazid then the dominoes keep falling who appointed who who appointed

[42:28]who who appointed whom those who paved the way for you to

[42:31]dominate over us we'll soon find out whose army is weaker we'll

[42:36]soon find out whose thoughts are inferior oh yes it although the

[42:40]plight has made me speak to you this is this is this

[42:45]world it's made zayn granddaughter of rasulullah speak to yazid grandson of

[42:49]abu sufyan this is this world don't think that the world when

[42:55]it hurts you you're not the only one it hurts zainab daughter

[42:59]of ali although the plight has made me speak to you i

[43:03]find speaking to you as head of literal value but i find

[43:08]scolding you great therefore i'll continue to scold you i'm not going

[43:12]to stop this is the moment i'm going to finish you this

[43:16]is the moment everybody realizes my position but also the message of

[43:22]my grandfather rasulullah and who was victorious at carabella and victorious at

[43:28]fedex and so on and so forth what did she say she

[43:30]said although the planets made me speak to i find speaking to

[43:34]you of little value what's calling you is great therefore continuous called

[43:38]you the eyes are tearful the heart is sorrowful how ironic it

[43:41]is that the members of the party of allah are killed by

[43:46]the members of the party of shaytan she said members of the

[43:53]party of of shaytan we are from the hezekiah of allah we're

[44:11]the pure ones from the hezbollah and you are the nasty ones

[44:14]from the hezbollah shaitaan our blood drips from your pores and our

[44:24]flesh drips from your teeth and then she looks at him what

[44:27]you think is booty today tomorrow is indemnity it's a beautiful line

[44:32]today where your booty you want to parade us in a matter

[44:36]of time you will see its indemnity you'll see that it hasn't

[44:41]carried you anywhere your ideas are unstable yes and your government transitory

[44:46]every one of you or my years one will end up killing

[44:49]the other fighting the other eventually you'll fall within a very short

[44:54]time then she said however hard you try you'll never ever obliterate

[44:59]our love and memory from the hearts of the people i had

[45:02]opened the haidari islamic center just a couple of weeks ago and

[45:05]i saw the alam of imam al-hussein there at the haidari islamic

[45:09]center and at that moment i said truly zainab was right when

[45:13]she said to yazid however hard you try you'll never obliterate our

[45:16]love and our wherever we will be in the world we will

[45:29]always utter those lines you can go to magillus anywhere on this

[45:35]earth right now showing zayn of what's victorious in charm and then

[45:39]what did she do she said i thank allah this is the

[45:42]beauty i begin with thank i end with thank you i thank

[45:48]allah who gave victory and prosperity to the chiefs of the youth

[45:51]of paradise and accommodated them with paradise and i ask allah to

[46:02]continue to raise their status and elevate them yazid knew at this

[46:06]moment zainab the saint of islam had virtually finished him and he

[46:13]knew at this moment that shyam slowly there was a change occurring

[46:16]he also knew at this moment that imam saying abedin sermon would

[46:21]be the double combo that was needed for them to eventually return

[46:26]it's one thing saying all these lines it's another thing holding the

[46:32]pain inside you a saint publicly they'll always show you to maintain

[46:39]your strength to allow you to have patience whereas deep down their

[46:43]heart is broken deep down you know that they've seen so much

[46:47]sorrow deep down for them it's extremely difficult can you imagine the

[46:52]scenes when she'd walk through the bazaar how many would poke her

[46:55]waste with spears imam zainal abedin says i would see them poke

[47:01]their spears on the waist of my auntie zainab how many of

[47:05]the children was zayn of the one who had to come near

[47:08]them to make them sleep i asked you who would help zayn

[47:11]up sleep how many children did zayna put on horses with no

[47:16]saddles i asked you who put zayn upon these horses how many

[47:20]cities did zayn have to go through where stones were pelted on

[47:24]al-muhammad who was there to remove the wounds from zainab hassalam that's

[47:31]why when they left shem and they returned to kerbela she headed

[47:37]towards the grave of abel saleh when she got to the grave

[47:46]of abel fatla it's as if she wanted to open her heart

[47:49]trouble for the where were you when they slapped the chick of

[48:00]your sister oh my belfan where were you in the ruins of

[48:03]sham oh abel father where were you where were you when they

[48:15]took us and they poked our ways with spears where were you

[48:23]my dear when they pulled the hijab of her faces then from

[48:28]there she went to abba abdullah when she came to imam that

[48:41]you gave me except one daughter i left her in sham she

[48:46]couldn't take seeing your head in front of her she did farewell

[48:50]to abbas and bit farewell to hussein but you know what was

[48:54]more difficult for her returning back to medina returning back to the

[49:02]house returning back to habit when she entered the house she saw

[49:09]two empty mattresses on the bed she realized that her boys were

[49:14]no longer with her all this time she held in her tears

[49:20]until when she saw the beds of own and muhammad it broke

[49:27]the heart of zainab alaihis i held in those tears because hussein

[49:35]had nobody to cry for him she also had a young daughter

[49:42]of imam al-hussein she had to go and talk to imagine the

[49:45]burden on that young daughter she looked at her eyes and fought

[49:58]but looked at the eyes she said sorry lady i don't know

[50:03]who you are i have not seen you you seem to know

[50:06]me she said to oh my niece don't you recognize your honesty

[50:10]say never any lady wants another lady to console her it's only

[50:34]natural that sometimes that warmth is there between two ladies but when

[50:39]zainab went to the house she told me before allah don't let

[50:43]anyone come to the house i need to my alone time i

[50:45]need to mourn for my brother alone all of a sudden the

[50:51]door knocked the moment the door knocked filled the window i was

[50:54]expecting to tell the lady that you can't come zainab is alone

[50:57]she wants to mourn the moment brother opened the door she saw

[51:02]abuse his mother and the mother of four she saw me she

[51:20]turned round to zainab and said to her that you asked me

[51:25]not to open the door but in front of me is the

[51:29]mother of four the mother of abbas doesn't feel abbas no more

[51:36]what [Applause] alongside say the zayn of allah allow us to receive

[52:23]her where seal and this world and her shafa and the hereafter

[52:26]ya allah allows us to visit the shrine of say the zainab

[52:30]and say that there are many of our brothers and sisters who

[52:33]are feeling unwell on a night like this with many different complications

[52:37]and health illnesses some are suffering from heart issues some are suffering

[52:43]from cancer some are suffering from kovid [Music] and our families and

[53:27]the originators of this medjlist and the members of the production of

[53:30]imam hussain tv and to bless all of them with the recital

[53:35]of asura and we welcome our recital muhammad abbas kareem with the

[53:41]loudest of yours [Music] [Music] [Music] oh [Music] [Applause]
