 Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa alayhi wa sallam said on the day of judgment a cooler will cool out. Where is Zaynul abideen? Where is the jewel of the worshippers? And Aliyy ibn Hussain alayhi s-salam will step forward. I often wondered how one receives a title like the jewel of the worshippers. Is it because his face would turn pale and he would shake in his prayers out of fear when others don't even know that it's time for prayer? Is it because in the darkness of the night when evil envelops the people that his du'as used to be whispered through the air? Is it because he would prostrate until the skin on his forehead becomes hard when others won't even go into suju to say shukrallillah? Or is it because on the day of ashura he said, fetch me a stick so I may stand and a sword so I may defend my father when our lip-bake dies on our lips? No, if you ask me what makes Zaynul abideen, it is not just the hours of prayer but also the resilience and attitude to difficulty. Because like the jewel that is cut by the jeweler so that its shape and shine dazzles the admirer, Aliyy ibn Hussain alayhi salam was cut in this world and that is what made him Zaynul abideen alayhi salam.
