The Story of Imam Hussain (RA)
Imām Hussain’s (may Allāh be pleased with him) services to Islam are countless and precious. He lived his entire life preserving the fundamentals of Islam in words and actions. Wherever he went, people were astonished by his radiant character and moral conviction. In short, he came to represent the ideals of his Grandfather, peace and blessings of Allāh be upon him.
But it is the episode of Karbalā that is most associated with Imām Hussain (may Allāh be pleased with him) today. Here, his brave, courageous and selfless actions left a mark on humanity until the Day of Judgement.
