\n \u00a0 Imam Hussain -asws Highlights the Purpose of going to Karbala: \n After receiving Yazid -la \u2019s instructions, through a messenger, Walid [10] and Marwan approached Imam Hussain -asws and pressed Imam -asws to accept the caliphate (governess) of Yazid -la .\u00a0 Imam -asws refused them.\u00a0 The next morning Marwan said to Imam Hussain -asws : \u2018O Hussain -asws !

Extend allegiance to Yazid -la for reaping the best of the both worlds!\u2019 \n Imam Hussain -asws recited: \u2018\u0625\u0650\u0646\u0651\u064e\u0627 \u0644\u0650\u0644\u0651\u0647\u0650 \u0648\u064e\u0625\u0650\u0646\u0651\u064e\u0640\u0627 \u0625\u0650\u0644\u064e\u064a\u0652\u0647\u0650 \u0631\u064e\u0627\u062c\u0650\u0639\u0648\u0646\u064e\u2019 ( We are for Allah and we are returning to Him – 2:156) \u2019 and then added: \u2018O Marwan, I -asws keep clear of that Islam which emanates from Yazid -la (and the likes of Yazid -la ).

Are you referring to the Islam which was introduced by my -asws grandfather -saww or another religion?\u2019 Marwan said: \u2018What other religion it could be but it\u2019s the same as your -asws grandfather -saww brought to us\u2019. \n Imam Hussain -asws then said: \u2018Have you then not heard the saying of my -asws grandfather -saww : \u2018Caliphate is forbidden for the children of Abu Suffiyan\u2019?\u00a0 At that, Marwan left in anger.

\n On the eve of the 28 th of Rajab 60 A.H., Imam Hussain -asws revisited the Holy grave of Rasool Allah -saww . After hugging the grave, Imam -asws complained to his -asws grandfather -saww of the behaviour of his -saww nation.
