This is one of the most well known titles of the Holy Imam, because His Eminence was a lofty example of this quality. It was he who raised the slogan of human greatness and constructed the path of honor and respect. Thus he did not bend before the monkeys of Bani Umayyah. He preferred death in the shade of spears. dishonor.
Aba Abdillah Husain bin Ali Ibn Abi Talib (‘a) was such that he preferred safety for himself and his companions but he did not accept humiliation on the basis of his aim so that it may not be that Ibn Ziyad does not kill them and dishonors them is some way; he preferred death to it and I have heard from Naqeeb Abu Zaid Yahya bin Zaid Alawi that he said: You can say that the couplet of Abu Tamam about Muhammad in Hamid Tai actually fits Imam Husain (‘a): [1] “It was easy to escape death, but a loyal defense and a manly quality, he turned it towards them.
And one who does not accept oppression, it is as if on the day of the battle he would be like a refusal or higher than that. Thus he made his steps steadfast by joining them to death and he said to it: Qiyamat or the day of gathering is under your control. He donned the red apparel of death and the night did not pass but it turned into the green brocade.” [2]**** The leader of the nobles restrained his self from increasing oppression and taught sacrifice to the people.
Musab bin Zubair says, “He gave preference to death with honor to a life of degradation.” [3] After that the following lines came on his tongue: “O one who was in Taff from the Hashemite clan. He considered others as equal and taught the elders equality.” The words of His Eminence are the most prominent compositions that became established in Arab literature whenever there is mention of honor, sanctity and pride is explained he says, “Indeed, these ignoble sons have put me between two choices.
Either I kill myself with the sword or accept dishonor. Far be it, that we accept degradation, because the Almighty Allah, the Prophet and the believers would not accept it for us.
