 respected viewers brothers and sisters in Islam Assalamu alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh welcome to light our night with me your host Ahmed Ali and my co-host and my brother Ali Fadil Mullah Ali Fadil who has crossed the seas and seven oceans and three continents I think it's just one ocean and one continent just to come to Karbala Mullah Habibi how you doing I'm good no bad no bad yeah well I finally settled into the the atmosphere here the ajwa today was the first time actually where I really took everything in in terms of he well he is one thing but the the visitors themselves and actual celebrations because I didn't actually see anything until now so I've like there's there's actually a market like there's congregations coming into the shrine paying their respects to Hussain as-salam in honor of the birth of my Mahdi Al Jalla so it was nice to get a an insight into the atmosphere here especially when it comes to the celebration yes um now I got a couple of questions to ask you um Azar Adood okay the reason why they didn't send it to you is because they want me to ask you right all right so you don't you don't have time to prepare okay you know you need to prepare for this who do you look up to Azar Adood who do you look up to in terms of either reciting have you actually written palms or no I've written one or two one or two have you recited them or no I recited one of them one yeah which was one of them a while ago seven years ago oh okay something about 40 in Karbala nice is that 40 days encounter no no no no that's all it's a classic yeah that's all it's a classic but regarding the question yeah who do you look up to uh in your career as a mullah so I as I was mentioning a couple of nights ago I grew up um I thought something happened to me too yeah especially if you're in Iraq I'm not used to like insects and everything so anything that anything that jumps or chase or like something that moves I'm always like okay so anyway all right so the flowers it's just the flowers no worries guys there's no insects or anything like just the flowers that move down anyway so I grew up in the studio come on anyways go ahead you never know you never know Iraq so I grew up looking up to and I was as I was saying he you grew up with him no no no grew up with him as I grew up listening to him listening to him coincidentally my father was in the same school as him but that's because they both lived in Karbala yes um but I grew up really admiring and appreciating his art history on the membar when I mean by art history as in I really feel like when he is on the membar he gives his heart and soul to make the poetry into a theatrical play so that it really resonates with the with the audience yes because the only way you because at the end of the day what is poetry and what is recitation poetry is just a bunch of words that a poet has put on to paper and when he puts it on to paper it's the role of the reciter to be able to use his use his voice and use his imagination yes and the tune and the melody to bring to life these words and the best person to bring to life the words of the Ahl al-Bayt and the poetry of the Ahl al-Bayt is in Karbala that's hands down and he's developed year on year year out every single year he's developed something whereby let me put it into context right how many Shi'a reciters Arabic-speaking reciters are there in the world many many probably in the thousands yeah maybe even the hundreds of thousands yes right every single one of them will copy Baysem in a certain way yeah be it his hand movements be it uh his uh his his tone be it the way he even looks right everyone wants to copy Baysem because because Baysem is a pioneer when it comes to really bring it to life the poetry of the Ahl al-Bayt so that's why he's become a role model to many to absolutely many and now he's even reached another milestone so you'd always think ah Baysem give him a couple of years and then you know people worry but year and year out he's always surprising people so in the beginning of when when he first introduced his tapes it's like oh wow what's going on and then he produced the first video and I'm not sure if you heard he received a lot of criticism because there's a video of him wearing like a white dress and then it's kind of just not a lot of fun no no it was a it was a flat one it was a it was a Mr. Chad one yeah and it was um like flowing in the wind and everything and there's one he done underwater there was many many many videos he did so a lot of people like oh was there's another but then they began to appreciate this guy has a vision his vision is to bring yes the shea multimedia yes to a level where people could think oh wow that's respectful yeah right yeah yeah not only that but the milestone he's reached I'm not sure if you've heard but on youtube youtube has recognized him yeah as a person who's who generated millions of views I think he's hit 10 million views or a million subscribers so he's received a plaque yeah saying congratulations from youtube for your 10 million views or something like that so milestone also and that's why I I really look up to I look look up to him in terms of both um as in the way he recites the poetry that he recites um and just the way he is as a character I really appreciate that by the way that's the eastern side there is a western side um so I there are a couple of nasheed islamic nasheed artists they call them um who utilized the eastern west so I remember I was I was saying that what I would love for my own personal vision is to bring English poetry English shea poetry to a level where it's it's it's on a par with the eastern I think it's difficult to do that it's difficult because in Arabic you have a huge imagination for Rwadid I mean when it comes to you know since when did you hear you take example of Basin I mean he as we mentioned he is the idol for when it when it comes to um you know reciting yeah you know just basically reciting you don't see him repeating the same tone you know he has a different tone and how many thousands of what he has you know and for each one there's a certain tone that he uses yeah uh which which is really amazing now for western it's very hard because they use the same melodies over and over again now in your career you know you and a couple days ago you said that you've taken some uh tones Arabic tones eastern tones yeah within your uh recitation have you taken any from western tones well I mean living in the west it's difficult not to hear certain songs or tracks um because it's their culture so you're bound to hear something every now and then and I think for for um learning purposes specifically learning purposes it's permissible to listen to a part of a certain song for learning purposes not because you want to enjoy the song or for just just for learning for learning learning yeah and honestly for learning purposes just to take a bit of the structure to actually study the way they uh so they want to to study the way they they how how their music is brought about to study um what what melodies they use what it's actually called scientifically so that way that's the only way I can I can utilize um the the the east the western melodies for the eastern tunes for the eastern poetry yes because in the day I look as much as as much as you you know as much as we try at the end of the day English vocabulary is for English melodies it's it just doesn't work with the Arabic style yeah you're smiling no I'm just looking at the screen oh yeah there's a bit of delay all right this is what the viewers actually see because there's a bit of a delay just in case something pops out you know okay right yeah uh but now uh I want

Welcome back My dear respected viewers Of Imam Hussein TV3 The English channel Of the Imam Hussein media group We are live from Karbala The Holy City of Karbala As it celebrates the birth Of all the births Of the heroes of Karbala Imam Hussein peace be upon him Imam al-Sajjad And Abu al-Fadr al-Abbas Peace be upon him But now we are gearing towards The birth of Imam Mehdi Aja Allahu Ta'ala Farajah al-Sharif And the 15th of Shaaban It is actually The second most holiest nights Of the Islamic calendar So this first life For the first life The first most spiritual night Is Laylat al-Qadr as we know In Ramadan The second most spiritual night Is the 15th of Shaaban Karbala as a city Will be packed with visitors Because not only Is it the night of the 15th of Shaaban But coincidentally It is the night of Friday So Thursday Or the night of Thursday The night before Friday And the night before Friday Usually it is recommended It is recommended To visit Aba Abdullah al-Hussein To pay your respects And send your allegiances To Imam Hussein peace be upon him But now it falls On the 15th of Shaaban Or the night of the 15th of Shaaban So therefore We will get thousands And thousands of visitors Coming to you here In Karbala To celebrate this occasion Imam Hussein TV Has a number of projects And a number of reports We've seen Our dear reporter Muhammad Ali Giving you some insights Into the streets of Karbala The culture of Karbala The atmosphere of Karbala As it celebrates the births And this enjoyable season The Shaabania season Karbala as a city Has lit up with lights And flowers And sweet aromas On the streets So it is very safe to say That the whole city Is celebrating in style I personally as I walk Towards the studio Witnessed three or four congregations Upon which people were reciting And reciting together And really enjoying their times Even entering the shrine As well as part of a congregation So it was And is a brilliant atmosphere It's very much different To Arba'een Although it's more or less It's the same and it's different What I mean by it's the same And different is the same In the sense That everyone is out commemorating And everyone is out celebrating But here When it comes to Arba'een Everyone's obviously mourning And they're in grief But when it comes to Shaabania season They are in the polar opposite And they are celebrating I don't know where camera one is This one's camera one Yeah, that's camera one Sorry Again, so between Between every now and then I get instructions in my ear Telling me camera one, camera two, camera three As you can see I chop and change I didn't notice there was a camera one here So here's camera one And I speak to Diana It's a camera one In any case In terms of These small insights The reason why millions of people Come towards Imam Hussain A.S. And the millions of people Pay their allegiances And pay their respects To Imam Hussain A.S. Visiting these momentous shrines Is number Is different There are different reasons For why they come One of the main reasons Is as we mentioned in the In the Ziyarat The Ziyarat is basically the book Upon which there are words And supplications To recite to Allah swt And to ask for your Hajj and needs In the name of these two great kings Living here in Karbala One of the reasons Is to answer a call Now if we go back centuries And we go to the time Of the Prophet Ibrahim He was tasked With a momentous occasion To build the Ka'ba When he was asked to build the Ka'ba In a time of difficulty He built the Ka'ba Made of stone And then he waited for The next instruction The next instruction came to him By his lord And it said That he was to make a call To the people around To the people to make them come Towards Allah swt To pledge their allegiance To Allah swt But he said O Ibrahim said O lord There is no one here In front of me Who do I make this call to Allah swt Responded and said Do not worry O Ibrahim The call that you make Will be heard In the loins of the women And the backs of the men Because this call Transcended time and space Upon which today Everyone answers the call Once a year In the Hajj season Where we go towards Allah swt And we pledge our allegiance To Allah swt By saying Allah swt Now similarly If we go down And we If we go down And we accept That the Ahlul Bayt The gerents of Allah swt The reason why they were created Is to give us the message And cement the message Of la ilaha illallah The call that Imam Hussain A.S. made On the day of Ashura On the land of Karbala Was a similar call A similar miraculous call When Imam Hussain Makes that call Why did he make this call There was no one in front of him The people in front of him Were enemies of Islam The people in front of him Wanted to kill Imam Hussain A.S. But he needed to make this stand For one reason and one reason alone To resurrect the teachings Of his grandfather Rasulallah So when he made this call He said Oh people Is there anyone out there To help us And this call That was incumbent on him To make this call It was obligatory almost On him to make this stand To sacrifice himself And his women And his children And his companions To make this call Wasn't for his own personal needs This call was to transcend time For this very reason That we see The millions of visitors Drive towards Imam Hussain On an annual basis This call was Is there anyone out there To help us Not to help us But is there anyone out there To come towards Islam And this call Transcend the time And space Century upon century Upon century Every single person Answered the call And says Yes, Labbaik Ya Hussain Similarly how we say Labbaik Ya Allah And Labbaik Allahumma Labbaik That same call That same miracle Was repeated by Imam Hussain On the day of Ashura On the land of Karbala And that is the reason Why millions of people Come towards Imam Hussain And the rest of the imams Of the Ahlul Bayt Both in here in Iraq And Iran To pledge their allegiances To Ahlul Bayt And say yes We want to be counted As part of your followers Those followers That reach Allah SWT And being close Facility of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala On the day of judgment That's a bit of a little insight Into the reasoning behind The visitors of Imam Hussain As-Salam And we pray to Allah SWT To protect these visitors Because Iraq unfortunately Is at times A dangerous place to be in Due to the political reasons It is very dangerous To come to Iraq A lot of people Have second thoughts When it comes to visiting My own parents Always have reservations When it comes to Me visiting Iraq Every single time They'll have a reservation Are you sure Is it the right time Is it not dangerous And so on and so forth But at the same time At the same time Within their hearts Within their hearts They know That Imam Al-Hussain As-Salam And Abul-Far Al-Abbas Will protect me on this On this path They know That This path If it's true servitude They will come I will come And inshallah Be protected By Allah SWT Through the might Of Imam Hussain As-Salam And Abul-Far Al-Abbas So we ask Allah SWT To protect The Zawar of Imam Hussain As-Salam During this time During Ramadan During the Sha'ban season During the Hajj season During the Arafah season The Muharram season The Arba'i season The Fatamiya Every single season Whereby people Come towards Imam Hussain As-Salam And ask Allah SWT To protect These visitors We're going to go on a short break Upon which we'll finish The rest of the report By Muhammad Ali And then after that When we come back We'll start with some recitations For your enjoyment Insha'Allah We'll see you in a couple of minutes We'll see you in a couple of minutes Welcome back dear viewers of Imam Hussain TV You are watching Light Our Nights The second part of
