 The young, old women, men and every segment leave their homes and their every commitment to walk and take advantage of every moment people were taught a lesson. People were taught a lesson from your kind response in the face of harassment. Your benevolence shook the tyrant's government, thy Lord has chosen you because your life to him was an investment due to your refinement from the pleasures of the world and its enjoyment. Hence, you are rewarded with the most honorable entitlement. Thy Lord has gracefully blessed you as you are the gate of fulfillment. I beg at the steps of your shrine by the hardships of your imprisonment. And nourish us with your divine commandments, respected viewers, brothers and sisters in Islam. Assalamu alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh. Welcome to another live coverage from the holy city of Ka'zumiyyah with Mir host Ahmed Ali. As you can see behind me right now, it's currently 7am Baghdad time and you can see the lovers of al-Bait al-Aliyya Muslim are not stopping. They are currently and constantly going and coming from cities within Baghdad, cities from all over Iraq. They have come walking to the holy shrine of Imam al-Ka'zum al-Aliyya Islam. And to mention that we are approximately 500 meters away from the holy shrine. So it's actually an honor to be where we are right now. Imam al-Ka'zum al-Aliyya Islam, I would like to narrate some quotes and then to find out why people actually come to flock towards Imam al-Ka'zum al-Aliyya Islam. I know that yesterday we talked about some stuff of his entitlements. So I would like to continue his other entitles that he was given by the Imams. Imam al-Ka'zum al-Aliyya Islam earned many nicknames amongst the people who are unique and refined character of the Imam, peace be upon him. He was called al-Abdu-Saleh, the noble servant for his perfect character and manners. We see that Imam al-Ka'zum al-Aliyya Islam, he was very devoted. I mean inshallah I'll mention an aeration by our scholars regarding this. But he's also mentioned as al-Ka'zum. Yesterday we talked about why he was named al-Ka'zum because he suppressed his anger. And that's why we need people when you walk around in the processions, when you interview the people walking to the Holy Shrine of Imam al-Ka'zum, they're filled with love, with compassion towards you, towards the Ahl al-Bayt, towards Imam al-Ka'zum al-Aliyya Islam that even if you insult them in any way, they will fly with a very beautiful face because they know that they're imam. The imam that they're here for to conduct had such noble character. He was also called, I would like to focus on this, he was also called Bab al-Hawaaj, the door of fulfillment, the door of fulfilling the needs and the wishes and granting the wishes of the Ahl al-Bayt al-Aliyya Islam and that's why it's very significant to touch upon that. Imam al-Ka'zum al-Aliyya Islam had many other names but Bab al-Hawaaj is very important. Yesterday I interviewed a little girl from Qadamiya, I brought her up on the stage with me and it's a question and answer type of thing and it really touched me emotionally because to see such a young girl, and there are even younger boys and girls, babies that can barely crawl, they're in the strollers but yet we do see them coming to the Holy Shrine of Imam al-Ka'zum al-Aliyya Islam and she said, when I asked her, what motivated you to come to the Ziyarah of Imam al-Ka'zum al-Aliyya Islam? At such a young age, I mean, some children tend to focus more on toys, focus more on, you know, they're not so much their studies but their toys, TV, you know, just childish stuff yet she answered with such nice, you know, and such extreme eloquence for a 10 year old. And she says that the motive behind my visitation to the Holy Shrine of Imam al-Ka'zum al-Aliyya Islam was to condole our 12th Imam, 12th Aweded Imam, and request from the 7th Imam to grant my wishes. I mean, when we do hear that, at such a young age, at the age of 10, a girl speaks with such, you know, with such nobility, you know, with such courage, she says that I am here to condole the 12th Imam. She has cognizant understanding of who the Imam is for a 10 year old to say this. It's very, very touching to the heart and insha'Allah it's a lesson for all of us to actually learn from such a young age to, you know, to love Ahlul Bayt al-Aliyya Islam and knowing that her walking to the Holy Shrine of Imam al-Ka'zum al-Aliyya Islam is, you know, a 100% guarantee that her wishes and her desires will be granted to her from Allah SWT by the will of Allah through Imam al-Ka'zum al-Aliyya Islam. But another incident which actually caught my eye it's, you know, you rarely see it in other cities but I noticed a lot in Qadmiya is that young women, young ladies walk with a white banner, they're rising a banner and, you know, money is attached to that banner. So yesterday, I wanted to know why, so I went on the streets and when I saw, you know, one, maybe that's a coincidence but a lot and, you know, numerous, you know women just walk by with white banners and money attached to it so I went and asked, I was like what is the reason behind you carrying a white flag with money attached to it and other things as well you know, such as, you know, gifts, small gifts but I'll share the answer with you is that she didn't want to appear on the camera because, you know, women in Iraq, you know, don't like to appear on cameras but she said the money which is on the flag represents the ill ones or the individuals who couldn't come to the Ziyara of Ma'am Musa Al-Qadim, alaihi s-salam and to the Holy Shrine so they hang it they hang as much as they can in money on the flag so when that person, upon reaching that person the Holy Tomb of Ma'am Musa Al-Qadim, alaihi s-salam he would, on that person's behalf you know, whether they're old, whether they're ill whether they have any situation that prevented them from coming to the Ziyara of Ma'am Musa Al-Qadim, alaihi s-salam upon entering and upon reaching the Holy Tomb of Ma'am Musa Al-Qadim they convey their salams on their behalf and then, you know, de-attach the money from the flag and throw it inside the Holy Tomb as a donation and as a sign that, you know, oh Imam, I couldn't come but I have sent you something, you know, that has my soul in it so you may accept my Ziyara and, you know my devotion towards Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala and my dedication, you know it takes great honor and great privilege to be where everybody is right now because this area specifically, and as I mentioned we are approximately 500 meters away from the Holy Shrine of Ma'am Musa Al-Qadim, alaihi s-salam and to be in such an area is actually, you know very honoring, you know people can sometimes be in Karbala you know, I always, you know, in Karbala interview, go around the Mawakib in Ashura that has a specific atmosphere but in Qadimiyah, it's actually my first time since I believe 2007 it's a while ago and I asked one of the military people here I said compared to, you know, the previous years how do you see, you know, the security in Qadimiyah I know that the security of Iraq right now is kind of loose but in Qadimiyah, Alhamdulillah, we have the line of Baghdad I would also like to share why Imam Musa Al-Qadim, alaihi s-salam is called the line of Baghdad but after this Imam Al-Qadim, alaihi s-salam you know, he puts his love and shares his love over everyone in Qadimiyah and satisfies them and keeps it secure from any, you know, hatred from any person or individual or group or anyone who tries to harm his pilgrims that come to him you know, right now as I mentioned 7am 7.30am 7.43 to be precise and 500 meters away from the Holy Shrine of Imam Musa Al-Qadim, alaihi s-salam but I would like to mention something is that when we do come to the Ziyara of Imam Musa Al-Qadim we should have one thing in mind that Imam Musa Al-Qadim, when he was in prison one of the spies heard him saying oh my lord you know that I had been asking you to spare me time to devote myself for your service you have done that praise to be, praise B to you oh my lord when we do hear that I mean Imam Musa Al-Qadim, alaihi s-salam doesn't need to show us this no one needs to show us this to prove that Imam Musa Al-Qadim, alaihi s-salam is devoted Imam Musa Al-Qadim, alaihi s-salam you know, is honorable no, he is trying to show us that when we come to the Ziyara when we come to his Ziyara when we come to his pilgrimage when we come to his visitation whatever you want to call it we should hold that within us that bearing devotion in our hearts strengthens our soul and strengthens our spirituality now I would like to mention a short story why Imam Musa Al-Qadim, alaihi s-salam is called the Lion of Baghdad one time Harun Rashid invited one of the supreme magicians and he invited Imam Musa Al-Qadim, alaihi s-salam they sat on the same dining table and whenever Imam Musa Al-Qadim, alaihi s-salam would go to become a piece of bread the magician would do something would do his magic act and the piece of bread would disappear from the hands of Imam Al-Qadim, alaihi s-salam once, twice, third Harun Rashid may Allah curse him and this magician started laughing you know, because they tried to humiliate the Imam when the Imam realized this there was you know, a carpet on or a picture on the wall in Harun's castle he told he spoke to the picture he said, oh the Lion of Allah take the enemy of Allah the Lion came out of that picture and ate the magician Harun Rashid passed away you know, he was unconscious along with his maids, along with everyone that was there, that was watching to see Allah coming out of a picture and going to you know, eat the enemy of Allah because he tried he tried to humiliate the Imam Harun Rashid went on his knees begging the Imam he said, I beg your forgiveness I didn't mean to humiliate you can you please return what the Lion ate can you return the magician Imam Musa Al-Qadim, alaihi salam said, if the snake of Musa could return the ropes that it ate from the enemies surely this Lion can return the magician and so it happened we see various miracles from Imam Musa Al-Qadim, alaihi salam I don't know how much time do we have but we have approximately more minutes but why I would like to go back to why he is entitled Bab al-Hawaaj people here, yes they do come flocking towards Imam Musa Al-Qadim, alaihi salam everyone has its own desire their own desire, their own pleasure but they come here with a mindset that they have truly come here for their desires this is the place where their desires are accepted and granted sorry so to have that within our lives is actually a blessing so I would like to ask Allah to bless everyone on this yet it is the martyrdom of our seventh Imam Imam Musa Al-Qadim, alaihi salam so I would like to condole you my respected viewers but here with me a young girl from Afun how are you? how are you? I don't know I don't know she is not she can't talk or now she can't express maybe she is shy because of the camera and because of the people watching her but I mean speechless, yes you can say speechless for such a young age the girl yesterday was somewhat encouraged to talk in front of the camera are you ready to talk? where are you coming from? from Al-Azamiyyah hello, how old are you? 6 years so she is saying that her house is in the Al-Azamiyyah district within the few areas surrounding Al-Qadimiyyah and she is 6 years old her houses are decreasing from yesterday yesterday we had 10 years old now we have 6 years old what do you like to say about Al-Qadimiyyah? why did you visit her? why? why did you visit the Imam? so she is kind of shy she told us that she was prepared when you get in front of the camera you do become shy but she is saying I have come here to convey my salams to visit the Holy Shrine of our beloved Imam Imam Musa Al-Qadim to be in her shoes right now is actually a blessing and I would like to ask everyone the respected viewers to actually learn from this because at such a young age she is dedicated herself at what? Al-Azamiyyah is approximately 20 or less kilometers from Al-Qadimiyyah Al-Qadimiyyah so it's a long way to actually come to visit yet we do see her walking from her home to here but I think we are going to go into a short break and come back to you shortly so break respected viewers welcome back I hope you inshallah enjoyed what you have just seen from the streets of Al-Qadimiyyah but I would like to mention something before we go before we end this morning's program is that we need to preserve within our hearts the love and the compassion towards Ahid al-Bayt al-Alim salam to learn from this young girl that was just beside me 6 years old waking up in the morning some people can't wake up in the morning you know because they have night shifts or whatever but yet we do see this young girl 6 years old coming from Aadamiyah district from Baghdad to come in Kando Imam Imam Al-Jawad Imam Al-Jawad for the martyrdom of his grandfather Imam Musa Al-Qadim alayhi salam so I would like to thank you respected viewers for tuning in live coverage from the holy city of Qadimiyyah may Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala honor you and bless you to come to the Ziyara of Imam Musa Al-Qadim alayhi salam whenever you can but it's blessed to be here where we are right now and thank you very much for tuning in assalamu alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh
