I am the son of Fatima Al-Zahra...

I am the son of Fatima Al-Zahra, I am the son of the Lady of all women, I am the son of the pure Batoul,23 I am the son of the daughter of the Prophet, I am the son of Ali Al-Murtada, I am the son of Fatima Al-Zahra, I am the son of Khadija Al-Kubra, I am the son of the one who was unjustly murdered, I am the son of the one who is slaughtered from the back, I am the son of the one who was thirsty till he died, I am the son of the fallen in Karbala, I am the son of the one whose turban and clothes were plundered, I am the son of who was cried over by the angels of the skies, I am the son of who was wept for by the Jinn in the ground and the birds in the air, I am the son of whose head was given as a present on spears, I am the son of whose women were captivated and brought from Iraq to Sham, O people, indeed Allah the Almighty, and thank is to him, had tested us, Ahlu El-Bayt, with a good test by placing the banner of guidance, just and pious with us, and had placed the banner for deception and killing on others…" Then people started to cry and weep loudly, which made Yazeed fear from sedition, so he ordered the muezzin to call for prayer, and to interrupt his speech and silence him.

And when he said: "I testify that there is no God but Allah". The Imam (Q) said: "My hair, skin, flesh, blood, brain and bones all had testified that it is true".

When he said: "I testify that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah" the Imam (Q) turned to Yazeed and said: "O Yazeed, is this Muhammad my grandfather or yours? If you claim he is your grandfather, then you would have lied, and if you say he is my grandfather, so why did you kill his progeny?" Then the Muezzin finished the call for prayer and Yazeed got up and performed the noon prayer. Previous…
