Before you are watching this Martyrdom of Imam Husayn (as) videos, i want remind you that this video is telling about what happened in the day of ASHURA. 10th Muharram 61 AH. To get the full picture of Maqtal Al-Husain, i recommend you to read the following chapters 1-6 from the Book of Maqtal al-Husayn by Abu Mikhnaf:

NOTICE!!! That the arabic speaker do not address all statements from these two English translated Maqtal Imam Al-Husain. Meaning that there are some statements in these two Maqtal Al-Husain books, that the Arabic Speaker do not mention in this Audio. But i will Insha Allah address some of these statements (Example, part 3 of this Maqtal) which are not mentioned in audio here in Description section.

-------------------------------------------------------

Had Ashura Day only known
What calamity in it went on.
Its aura would not have dawned,
Its light would not have shown,
Its sun would not have been bright,
Its grief stole from the days their light.
And so every month, and so every day.
O Allah! What a momentous day!
It removed my patience, out did it my sleep wear,
Everyone from the family of Ayat al-Tath§r
Was either slain or in the dust rubbed;
That Day the life of every h. ~fiz. was robbed,
And the creed in grief almost passed way.
That very Day...
The foes' eyes slept
As the faithful's eyes wept.
Woe upon me and many a woe
How under the hooves the ribs were low,
And atop every spear
A severed head did appear.
And on the plains the corpses did scatter:
Grieving women coming out of the chamber
Wailing, crying, frightened by the danger,
And a suckling woman lolling at her babe, crying:
On the sands lying, moaning, panting, dying,
And women taken captive on she-camels bare
Their veils taken away, agonized, wearing a stare;
Their protectors from them did depart,
Killed by every fiend having no heart.
The concern of the people whom Allah did hail
Was only to mourn, to weep, and to wail,

On a day deep grief is to be upheld at least,
Whereas the Turks eat, drink, laugh and feast...[1]
