\n Imam Hussain -asws replied by reciting the following verses: \n I -asws shall go toward death and there is no shame for a man in death as long as his -asws intentions are based on the truth and he -asws fights (for Allah -zawj ) as a Muslim. \n (There is no shame in death for men) as long as they support the righteous ones -asws , fight the criminals, and abandon the sinners. \n (I -asws shall fight) and if I -asws live, I -asws shall not have any regrets.
And if I -asws am killed, I will not be blamed. Nothing is more humiliating than living under the humiliation of the oppressors. [40] \n The narrator of the Hadith says: \n Muhammad -asws Ibn ‘Ali (Imam Baqir -asws ) said: \n When Hussain -asws was about to leave Madina, the women of Bani Abdil Muttalib -asws gathered around him -asws and started mourning.
\n Imam Hussain -asws (stood up) and started walking among them and said, “I -asws ask You by Allah -zawj not to Disobey Allah -asws and His Messenger -saww by revealing this matter (publicly).” The women replied: Then who should we cry and mourn over if we do not mourn today, for today is like the day when the Rasool Allah -saww , Ali -asws , Syeda Fatimah -asws , \u2026died. \n O the most loved one -asws from among (our loved ones) who have passed away!
We ask you -asws by Allah -zawj (to allow us) to be your -asws ransom to keep death away from you -asws . \n Then one of his -asws aunts came forth crying and said: \n O Hussain -asws ! I testify that I heard the jinn lament over you -asws and recite the following verses: \n Verily, the slain one from the family of Hashim -asws lowered the necks of the Quraysh and disgraced them. \n He -asws was the love of Rasool Allah -saww and he -asws was not an immoderate person.
\n (O Hussain -asws ) Your tragedy is the greatest tragedy and it has grieved everyone. \n Imam Baqir -asws added: \n The Jinn also recited the following poem: \n Weep over Hussain -asws , the master, the one whose death turned the hairs white. \n You have been afflicted with earthquakes and the moon has eclipsed because of his -asws killing. \n And the horizons turn red (everyday) at sunrise and sunset. \n And the sun has been covered with dust and the earths have been covered with darkness.
\n He -asws is the son of Syeda Fatimah -asws and the entire creation has been afflicted by his -asws tragedy. \n (After the killing of Hussain -asws ) we have lost our glory and we have inherited humiliation.
