Imam Jaafar Al-Sadiq (Q) said...
Imam Jaafar Al-Sadiq (Q) said: "When the head of Imam Hussain (Q) was brought in front of Yazeed, may God curse him, then they brought Ali Bin Al-Hussain along with the daughters of the Prince of believers (Q), while Imam Ali Bin Al-Hussain was restrained and chained up". Yazeed said: "O Ali Bin Al-Hussain, thank God who killed your father!" So Ali Bin Al-Hussain (Q) said: "May Allah curse whoever killed my father". Then Yazeed got fumed up and ordered them to behead him.
So, Ali Bin Al-Hussain said: "If you kill me, then who is going to return the daughters of the Messenger of Allah (P) to their homes, while there is not a chaperone (Mahram, unmarriageable kin) other than me?" Then, Yazeed said: "You shall take them back to their homes".
Then he asked for a file to scrape the chain off the Imam’s neck with his own hands, then he said to the Imam: "O Ali Bin Al-Hussain, do you know why am I doing this?" He (Q) said: "Yes, you do not want anyone to do me this favor but you". So, Yazeed said: "Indeed, this is exactly what I wanted to do…, O Ali Bin Al-Hussain (Whatever misfortune happens to you, is because of the things your hands have wrought)17 Ali Bin Al-Hussain (Q) said: "Not really, this verse was not intended for us!
But the one intended to us is (No misfortune can happen on earth or in your souls but is recorded in a decree before We bring it into existence, that is truly easy for Allah* In order that you may not despair over matters that pass you by, nor exult over favors bestowed upon you.
For Allah loves not any vainglorious boaster)18 as we are those who do not feel sorry for what passed us and we do not exult over what life brings to us" By this, Imam Zein El-Abedeen (Q) had shattered the roots of the supporting base that Yazeed used, and he (Q) exposed how ignorant Yazeed was with the true meaning of the holy verse. Then, a man from Sham jumped up and said: "Allow me to kill him!" So, Sayyeda Zeinab (O) threw herself down on him.
While Imam Zein El-Abedeen (Q) was saying: Do not expect us to respect you if you are dishonoring us, And to stop harm from reaching you, while you are hurting us Indeed God knows that we do not like you, And we do not blame you if you do not like us.
