 يطيب لونه أن فيه طغليه إذا باقي أحل فاك يبولين بالخاطر أريد بخدم تاك ظلين ربا أسرع بكم في التواصل الثلاثة مع أحمد علي و before we begin any episode I would like to attend my condolences صاحب العصر والزمان may Allah hasten his reappearance to you my dear viewers and to everyone across the world on the tragic nights of محرم I know a few nights ago my dear guest said عباس فنجو and I began the month of محرم with شيخ عباس فنجو we kicked off the month of محرم with the banner exchange ceremony and we mentioned a lot of things you can check out on YouTube but as we move closer to the tenth of محرم the sorrows within our hearts increase if you find yourself depressed in these nights don't wonder why because the hearts of the daughters of the Prophet محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم were also depressed these nights the hearts of the brave warriors of إمام الحسين عليه السلام عباس فضل عباس فنجو I have a beautiful view behind me right now I'm sitting right between the two minarets and the dome is on my left so it's beautiful to see how after 1400 years has grown and محمد حسين right there on my right beautiful shots we do give a warm shout out to our crew members cameramen and people inside the studio and inside the control room but tonight inshallah is the third night and what's really heartbreaking and sad at the same time for the third night of محرم it's interesting because wherever you go across the globe you'll find Shi'as in different countries commemorating or remembering someone different although they have one thing in common if you go to Iran the Persian countries you'll find them commemorating رقية if you go to India, Pakistan and the Indo-Pac communities you'll find them commemorating سكينة and if you come to Iraq you'll find them commemorating فاطم العليلة now what's all in common is these three individuals are the daughters of yet two were present on the day of عشرة and one was left alone in Medina due to her illness فاطم العليلة and I will get to talk about why did يام حشان عليسلام leave his daughter and honestly it's one of the most heartbreaking stories to ever think about to ever read and to ever touch upon in general because a four-year-old who cannot bear to leave her father and you know she's so attached to her father that every night she gets him the prayer rug and she spreads it for him to come and pray we'll get to talk about more what she did and how عشرة حشان's heart was broken one this beautiful small child of عشرة عليسلام was left behind now a lot of people wonder wherever you go this question was always read to عشرة as to why did عشرة عليسلام take his sisters his wives and his daughters to fight now the intention of عشرة عليسلام leaving Medina was not to fight you can go look through history I mean I remember a couple years back when I had the honor of sitting with a few scholars and this question was also raised as to why did عشرة عليسلام leave from Medina with his family members he didn't want to pledge allegiance the tyrant was corrupt but why did he take his children and left them and 100% acceptable why go and sacrifice your daughters your wives your small sons basically your whole family why would you do that now the intention and the scholar gave a very beautiful answer to that he says was his intention to fight and the person said I don't know the intention of عشرة عليسلام was not to fight did not leave Medina to fight he said it explicit إنما خردت لطلب الإسلاح لأمتي جدي I did not leave while I left seeking reformation for the religion of my grandfather Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم what was happening at that time that Imam Hussein wanted to seek reformation and by taking his wife his wives his daughters his sisters his nephews everyone is in his family and his companions came with him seeking reformation you know with the movement of the finger they can change this world but Imam Hussein wanted to give that image of when you look at a certain person you'll know what tragedies they've been through and to learn from them so who did he take he took Zaynab who else did he take he took Sakina Layla رباب all the individuals who if we study today and unfortunately we haven't studied today the only season we actually look at the lives of the family of Imam Hussein أهل البيت in general but specifically the family of Imam Hussein is Aashura is محرم and it's unfortunate why because honestly if we were to study those lives we would find so many lessons so many lessons one of the lessons that Zaynab عليه السلام teaches us through her stand before even Aashura Imam Hussein عليه السلام جاد war with all of his companions and he narrated what will happen he says Zaynab already knows because فاةمت الزهرة عليه السلام there are some lessons so be upon her gave her a shirt a ripped shirt an old shirt to gift to her brother so if they have Aashura they wouldn't have to they would leave the body of Imam Hussein عليه السلام you know un clothed لذا لن يأخذ الشرط. ونحن نفس الشرط أن أمام صادق عليه سلام يفعله عندما يقول إذا هلا محرم إذا مون المحرم أو محرم المحرم يشون أن أمام الحسين عليه السلام يدفع الشرط على العالم ونحن there is no stone that doesn't cry and there is no sky that doesn't weep over أمام الحسين عليه السلام. لذلك لن يكون among the skies weeping أمام الحسين عليه السلام and lamenting on our say so one of the stands of Zaynab Peace and Blessings be upon her. when our say said everything Zaynab already knew but there was a stand she had to make. there was something that she had to say in front of everyone to make them realize that the action that you're doing right now is a hundred percent beautiful Allah سبحانه وتعالى. now as I mentioned he was not leaving for war. he mentioned this later on when his troops were in thousands and Subhan Allah on the day of Aisha Rawi get 72 however so Maul Hussain عليه السلام gathers everyone his companions and he says to them oh fulan oh fulan oh Zaynab oh Rabab you know everyone we're going to a journey or on a journey that will end in a couple of days you know I will be beheaded my family will be taken as captives now Zaynab عليه السلام says to Imam Hussain she says to him oh brother if this will happen to you who will be there to narrate your story and spread Islam so she insisted on coming with Imam Hussain عليه السلام and the rest of the women and children insisted as well you know if we were to look at a similar situation we would look at the story of Mubahala because honestly one of the most impressive stories that someone would look at through the history of Islam is the story of Mubahala and when Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم brought his close family members in a social war if you will you know because he said whoever is lying الله's damnation will come upon him so he brought his family members to show how pure these individuals were the same as Imam Hussain عليه السلام Prophet Muhammad could have taken anyone because Islam at that time was pretty big he had a few thousand followers he could have taken them tens of companions he could have taken them but no he chose his family this is why Imam Hussain عليه السلام chose the really close ones thousands left with him but the chosen ones 72 or so given take by the narrations stayed with Imam Hussain عليه السلام so Imam Hussain عليه السلام says peace and blessings be upon him who will be there to spread your message and honestly one of the most beautiful stories that ever you know narrated in Islam is the story of Ashura you know after we hear scholars recent scholars or past scholars saying the narration or saying the quote yes the mission of Imam Hussain عليه السلام was to actually sacrifice himself for Islam but the legacy of Imam Hussain continued through Zainab because right now when we hear the Maqatil mentioning you know incidents happening from the enemies of Ahl al-Bait but the most tragic ones are what happened after Ashura to the family of Imam Hussain عليه السلام to Zainab to Umkulthum and to the others this is what really strikes the heart of you know of our hearts and the hearts of millions across the world that every year we come, we sit, we gather every night for 30 nights some people go all the way to Arba'een every night commemorating each night what happened where did they go and it's actually beautiful to sit every night and talk about this because the journey from Karbala to Sham and back to Karbala is one that's beautiful tragic at the same time and heartbreaking because you get to realize the far distances that Ahl al-Bait traveled just for me and you for me to sit in front of the camera and say this and for you to sit at home and watch on your TVs they gave so much for Islam they gave so much for the religion of Allah SWT to spread to continue yet we sit at the comfort of our homes and I'm talking about myself first I'm not talking about people that I know we sit at the comfort of our homes so fortunate and not even thinking about the rest of the year what Ahl al-Bait had to go through because according to narrations Arba'een was the Arba'een after like the next year Arba'een that's one narration but even for 40 days going from one city to the other and then to the other humiliated why? because Zaynab A.S. made that stand before even محرم approached she said oh brother if this is going to happen to you if your companions are going to die they're going to be butchered if you're going to be killed who's going to be there to tell your story because Zaynab A.S. did perfectly in Kufa did perfectly on the way to Sham in Sham but if we want to go just a few days back before Zaynab said this what happened on those nights as I began today's episode we talked about every night is dedicated to someone different from the Ahl al-Bait A.S. when you reach up until the 10th you have a Muslim earlier you have different individuals according to different cultures but when you go from the 5th or the 6th of محرم up until the 10th almost everybody commemorates the same individuals we have on the 5th we have the Ansar on the 6th sorry on the 5th we have a Muslim on the 6th we have the Ansar on the 7th we have the beautiful warrior the brave warrior behind me right now is Shrine you have on the 8th on the 9th on the 10th the night of the 10th on the 6th month the 6th month old baby and then on the 10th all of them died on the 10th except for Muslim you died earlier but all of them died on the 10th but for the first 10 days you have different people or dedicate for different days or different days dedicate for different people now on the 3rd it's very special on the 3rd it's dedicated to the daughter of whether you're living in the east or you're living in the west you're commemorating the daughter of whether it's whether it's whether it's what makes them all in common is that all of them were the beautiful daughters of Imam Hussain A.S and if you go look at رقية she had a miserable life after عشرة she had a life that any child could not bear figured to go back and look at فاطمة العليلة when Imam Hussain A.S before he left he said tonight whoever name I call out you'll be joining me in my journey now he gathered everyone and started calling out names almost everybody that was present in that room from the family Imam Hussain A.S left with him except for أمو البنين and فاطمة العليلة so Imam Hussain A.S leaves goes to his room everyone's getting ready to leave in the morning Imam Hussain feels someone coming to the room going back 3 times coming to the room standing there he was praying but he can feel someone coming to the room going back coming to the room and going back and all of a sudden he turns back and sees a small girl leaving now he calls over زينب he says زينب let's go to my daughter فاطمة I think she wants to speak to me she has something to say so she Imam Hussain A.S go to فاطمة العليلة and they tell her do you have something to say to your father she says oh father I feel like I'm not a part of this house I'm not a member of this house Imam Hussain began to tear she says oh my daughter what are you talking about she says you called everyone tonight that will leave with you but he did not call my name now earlier Imam Hussain told زينب if anything happens فاطمة should stay back because if she sees what will happen to me she loves me so much that she will die instantly so Imam Hussain A.S told زينب so they're talking to فاطمة and Imam Hussain says oh my beloved daughter it's nothing of what you say you're much part of the family as anyone else so the most sad the most sad story is the narration that فاطمة Ali says to her father she says oh dad I can mount the saddle if the night comes I can get you ready to sleep if it's time for prayer I can get your stuff ready for prayer I'll be like your servant just take me with you she was begging her dad her father Imam Hussain to take her with him but yet he says oh Fatima you have to stay back you're ill you know and what breaks the heart is after they come back and you know when the tragedy has all happened and أمو البنين is you know it's a crazy story but we'll keep you tuned in every night of what happened on these certain nights and who these nights are commemorated to or affiliated to and insha'Allah we'll be back after this short break with a very special guest from the UK a poet and dear friend of mine so to the break and we'll be back shortly so do stay tuned Ladies and gentlemen welcome back you know it's the beautiful scenes as the CG says or as the caption says street walk in paradise and really it is paradise when you see these processions when you see everyone just coming out on the nights of Muharram every single night and you know I encourage everyone to actually come and look at what happens in Karbala document you know in your journeys in your journal sorry or in your diaries and you know just every day what you see in Karbala because every night you'll see something different because a different procession has something bigger than the other procession it's like a competition you know whoever has the biggest lights and stuff because they try to show that these nights are so sad for the أهل بيت عليم السلام that the only way to light up these nights you know and to remember أهل بيت عليم السلام is through the lights and you know through the stuff that goes around you know I seen a beautiful you know I think it's a flower crown that goes around between Haramain inside the shrines it's been there it's been there for ages that people are commemorating this in you know and the beautiful culture of different you know races and everyone just comes to Karbala to commemorate one occasion and not the occasion of أهل بيت عليم السلام and we do have our brother from the UK سجاد السلام عليكم علينا السلام عليكم سجاد عليكم السلام أهل بيت عليم الحمد للهوية الله يسلمكم now we did have you as our guest in the market in the Ramadan and we do have you once again in our show late night talk it's a beautiful view behind me right now we have you know people from across the world coming to Karbala to commemorate these nights so before we get into poetry and before we get into the sad occasions or the sad that you have prepared for us how are you guys commemorating Ashura in the UK yeah as always as every year we have a lot of centers here that have Majalis and have remembers and say yeah you know it's quite it's quite quite intense atmosphere at the moment you know there's an atmosphere of sorrow and sadness of the as always and Alhamdulillah we are able to commemorate a tragedy when we celebrate as we do every year yeah I mean when Ashura arrives do you feel the sense of depression the sense of sadness going into you because it does fall into a random in the half of a random month so you get that feeling of sadness do you also get that feeling or is that just just a random feeling that anyone feels yeah absolutely unfortunately the line is not very clear so I can't have everything you are saying so I think I get the gist of it and you know the sense of sadness and sorrow is always going to be in the air and I think the majority of us commemorating Ashura yeah in a country other than the Holy Land of Karbala I wish we could be there in Karbala so Insha'Allah next year everyone who wants to to be there Insha'Allah will be able to have a little fit to be in Karbala Insha'Allah because honestly I know you've made it to Karbala and you know it's honestly it's a beautiful vibe I mean how many times have you been to Karbala can you tell us yeah I've been maybe three times to Karbala but you know I've been to and you know other other dates such as that but never for Ashura the first ten days of Muharram so Insha'Allah next year hopefully Insha'Allah you can come during Muharram because honestly being here in Karbala is a blessing you see everyone just you know just energetic to serve Al-Hussain I can hear the مواكب behind me the you know the cups for teas you know hitting each other you can hear them from right here it's beautiful but what have you prepared for us tonight sorry what have you prepared for us tonight and I have a I have a poem on the Sun Zoom Al-Hussain it's entitled how many sons die on Ashura so it's you know it's about the son of Imam Hussein and the you know the nephews of Imam Hussein before on the day of Ashura beautiful beautiful thoughts I mean can you share that with us Insha'Allah with the Salawat Muhammad O Allah Abbas and Hussein watch their sister the children of Zainab thirsty with their dry tongues destroy that army a proud Zainab Hussein broken Abbas's hands embrace all three and in armor of their grandfather they ride into the battlefield young boys against the strongest men men reminded of Ali then and Zainab's calls are not for her sons but for her mother's son Hussein how many sons die on Ashura a parched tongue seen in a dry mouth in checking his own Hussein weeps with no ears and no voice he weeps as blood from the heart of Akbar seeps and this land of and this desert land of heartache becomes a land of mountains steep how is Hussein return back carrying his son on a spear the mother of one Ali falls as the mother of Hussein calls someone take from him this body and protects my son Hussein how many sons die on Ashura a baby wrapped in Hussein's arms no army left and left unfed how did Hussein carry him out and walk along the path he'd bled cries ringing in his voice he cried oh father and his son he lifted Ali Al-Asgar was exposed listened the sunlight on his forehead he saw the arrow and said a prayer flooded his hands in the dry air was there another moment as painful for the son Hussein how many sons die on Ashura the sweetness of Qasim's words ring and the heart of Hussein they sting I can offer you no water but the reply I want nothing I can hear death surrounding me and I see my father calling I see your mother and her tears and awaiting Abbas his wings death for me sweeter than honey to meet my father and to meet Ali and collect the trampled pieces of Qasim the son Hussein how many sons die on Ashura resting on a bed of roses resting on a bed of roses no one comes here no one comes near or opposes anyone who dares to approach Hussein a winner discloses a knife one man wants to brandish to murder to murder the son he poses a raised hand how many hearts break whales heard from Noah and Moses the father of Yusuf his torn he searches for his sons shirt torn as the thorns begin to cut the body of the son Hussein how many sons die on Ashura اللهم صلى الله عليه وسلم اللهم صلى الله عليه وسلم it's beautiful how you mentioned how many sons die on Ashura basically to answer that question the sons of Ahl al-Bayt are butchered on Ashura but what's also tragic is what happens after Ashura to the daughters of Ahl al-Bayt yes the sons were killed on Ashura but the daughters of Ahl al-Bayt it's just tragic what happens to them so absolutely right that's another tragedy in itself which requires another separate poem it does insha'Allah and come back insha'Allah on another day insha'Allah and very beautifully we thank you very much and we hope Allah SWT give you the ability and the strength and the courage to continue serving Ahl al-Bayt عليهم السلام and another you know tonight is something very beautiful I was talking about it earlier according to different cultures this night is dedicated to someone different for us the Arabic culture it's for for the Indo-Pak communities it's for and the Persians for now how do you connect with these individuals and Fatima العليلة good question I think that for a lot of us maybe similar to me you know men older men younger men youth who or even older women we find it sometimes to connect to certain personalities yes who we remember tragedy of Karbala but I think something like a young girl who was born who left behind or someone like who was brought with who was brought with we can always relate to them in the sense that we all know we all have our knees or even someone that we know our friends daughters a young girl that we've known and we can by thinking about them I remember their tragedy when they went through yes insha'Allah and honestly for the ones who are married and have kids that first child or forget about the first child but any child that comes into their life it's so precious to them yet we find even that most precious thing was taken away from them it was taken away from him and I would like thank you very much for joining us tonight and hopefully we can have you in the upcoming nights insha'Allah you know we have come to the end thank you very much thank you very much once again respect the viewers thank you very much for joining us tonight hopefully insha'Allah tomorrow we can touch upon a different idea and a different perspective a different perspective of Muharram and how this month can revolutionize our mentalities and change our perspective on life and perspective on humanity in general once again thank you very much والسلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته
