Every concerned Muslim should try to understand and heed to the call of Imam al-Husayn ('a) which still echoes in the hearts and minds of the truth-seeking human beings: فقد علمتم أن رسول الله (صلَّى الله عليه و آله) قد قال في حياته من رأى سلطاناً جائراً مستحلاً لحرم الله ناكثاً لعهد الله مخالفاً لسنة رسول الله يعمل في عباد الله بالاثم و العدوان ثم لم يغير بقول ولا فعل كان حقيقاً على الله أن يدخله مدخله Indeed you know that the Messenger of Allah (S) said during his lifetime: "Whoever observes a sovereign legalizing what God has made unlawful, violating the covenant of God, opposing the Sunnah of the Messenger of God, and treating the creatures of God sinfully and oppressively, and does not oppose him with his speech and action, God has a right to bring him to the same fate as that of the tyrant…"[^3] ألا ترون أن الحق لا يعمل به و أن الباطل لا ينتهى عنه "Don't you see that what is true and right is not acted upon and what is false and wrong is not forbidden?..." [^4] هل من ذاب يذب عن حرم رسول الله "Is there any protector do defend the sanctuary (haram) of the Messenger of Allah?
