 Hussain ibn Ali, master of the youth of Paradise, the master of all martyrs. We all love Imam Hussain alayhi salam and his courageous stand against the tyrant of his aim, Yazid l-Mathullah alayh. But why do we limit him to Ashura? Why do we limit this great man to just one day? When all the qualities that Imam al-Hussain alayhi salam displayed in Kandahar, bravery, justice, generosity, humility, patience, all of these qualities he displayed before the temple. Imam al-Hussain alayhi salam had the most beautiful man. As a young boy, he and his brother Imam al-Hassan alayhi salam saw an elderly man performing wudu incorrectly. And instead of him arrogantly embarrassing the man, they went over to him and asked him to watch them perform wudu and to tell them if they were doing it correctly. The man was honoured to be asked this, and when he saw them perform wudu, he realised it was actually him who was doing it incorrectly. Imam al-Hussain alayhi salam was a mercy to all those around him. He loved and adored his family, especially his young daughter Ruqya alayhi salam. But not only that, but even those who had wronged him could turn to him for help. When Osama ibn Zayn, a man who had rejected the leadership of Imam alayhi salam, lay on his deathbed with a huge debt unpaid, it was Imam al-Hussain alayhi salam who paid the debt on his behalf. Imam al-Hussain alayhi salam also taught us the most beautiful of du'as, including du'a mashul and du'a ala fa. So when you sit and recite, oh Allah, what has he lost? He who loses you. But oh Allah, what can he lose? He who finds you. Remember to thank Imam al-Hussain alayhi salam for sharing these precious words with you, these words that bring so much comfort to our hearts. The patience and bravery he showed throughout his life exceeds all words. At the battle of Nahrawan, one of the prisoners of war asked the Imam alayhi salam to loosen the ropes around his hands. Imam al-Hussain alayhi salam went to his father, Imam alayhi salam, and said, please let me loosen the ropes. If someone asks something of me, I cannot bear to refuse them. That day Imam al-Hussain alayhi salam loosened the ropes around the hands of Shimmer al-Lanitullah alayhi. Knowing full well that Shimmer will kill him on the day of Ashura. This is Hussain alayhi salam, master of the youth of Paradise. Let us never forget his legacy. He famously said that many people are loyal to the religion during good times, but turn their backs when things get tough. On this day, the 3rd of Shaban, let us do our master proud and stay steadfast as he did. This is Hussain alayhi salam, master of the youth of Paradise.
