Crying For Imam Husain (a.s.)

Crying For Imam Husain (a.s.) - Published by Bohra Shia Ithna Ashari Jamat

Crying is a natural emotional response to certain feelings,usually sadness and hurt. The aim behind complying the book is not to prove the validity of crying for Imam Husain (a,s,) but to remind the youths the importance of this great deed which is from the Sunnat of the Prophets (a.s.) and Holy Infallible Imams (a.s.). This deed is not a custom but an act of manifesting our love and affection towards the Ahle Bait (a.s.) and in turn fulfilling the right of the holy verse, of AlMawaddat al Qurba.

Our youths should remember the tradition of Imam Sadiq (a.s.) who said: "When Imam Husain (a.s.) came to the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.a), he looked at him, hugged him and said:

'Martyrdom of Husain will generate such a fire in the hearts of believers which will never be extinguished'.”
