[0:00]is a man by the name of abba kilmer have you heard

[0:03]that name before he is one of the reporters who later told

[0:10]us part of the narrative of ashura he was with him perhaps

[0:13]all the way from mecca even he came with the imam but

[0:17]he was half-hearted about joining the imam the imam had been talking

[0:23]about death about martyrdom about these sorts of things this guy was

[0:26]like me thinking imam is going to go to kufa he's going

[0:28]to go and topple the regime and probably he's going to end

[0:32]up becoming the khalifa and maybe i'll get a piece of the

[0:36]cake and so he joins the imam but not fully committed to

[0:39]his cause so he told the armament for saying look i'll come

[0:42]along with you but there's a condition which is that if i

[0:46]realize that you're going to die anyway then i'm not going to

[0:50]waste my life essentially is that okay the moms are doing sure

[0:53]the imam welcomes everybody but of course the filtration has to happen

[0:58]so then fast forward to the day of ashura the first ambush

[1:03]40 of imam hussain's companions had been killed or injured the dust

[1:09]settled 40 martyrs that's half the camp of imam hussain came to

[1:12]the imam he said to him remember our deal the imam said

[1:16]yes he said am i free to go yes the imam doesn't

[1:20]know what doesn't want to force anybody he doesn't want to even

[1:24]get someone to help him when he's half-hearted the imam wants purity

[1:29]he wants only the best of the best and so he said

[1:33]of course you're free to go but how are you going to

[1:38]go the enemy has surrounded us there's no horses he said no

[1:40]i've got my horse lined up you always had that plan b

[1:45]that exit strategy again not fully committed to imam hussain and defending

[1:48]him my mom's up to him you're free to take your horse

[1:53]and leave he rode his horse and took off in my humble

[1:56]view he's a cursed man because he saw what imam hussain was

[1:59]faced with and yet he failed to defend him at the very

[2:04]least he is a loser of the highest caliber
