Imam Al-Husein peace be with him wanted to liberate the people who were enslaved by the rulers, and therefore the revolution of Imam Al-Husein peace be with himwas launched based on this humanitarian aspect in order to achieve freedom for the entire mankind.

The dimensions of Imam Al-Husein's revolution:
As we read through the narration of Imam Al-Husein peace be with him, we see that when he went out to the battle to fight those who came to fight him, and when he saw his opponents invading the tents of the women, he addressed them saying: "O You the followers of Abu Sifyan, if you do not follow a religion, and if you do not fear the Judgment day, be free in your lives and return to your origins if you were Arabs."
Imam Al-Husein peace be with him raised two issues here. The first is that he laid emphasis to the freedom of man when he said: If you do not abide by religious values and you do not believe in a creed, at least be free. The free man is the one who does not sell himself or his position or opinion in return for money or positions. Do not be slaves, because you are fighting to obey those who enslave you.
The second issue he raised is that Imam peace be with him tried to provoke in them the feelings of Arabism which Islam approved: "Be Arabs", not in terms of the narrow nationalism, but on the basis of the values the Arabs lived, which Islam adopted some of them and eliminated others. This discourse is not addressed to the followers of Abu Sufyan in particular, but to every human being.

On the humanitarian level, we also read his speech when he was asked to give legitimacy to Yazid. He said: "The illegitimate, son of the illegitimate, has settled between two: between unsheathing [the sword] and humiliation, and how impossible is humiliation from us." So it is about being honored in all your life. Imam As-Sadiq peace be with him was quoted as saying upon interpreting the following Quranic verse: "God has the glory and His Prophet and the believers." (63:08) Imam As-Sadiq peace be with him said: "God has allowed the believer to run all his affairs, but he did not authorize him to humiliate himself." Glory is based on power: "The power is wholly Allah's". (02:165). So, to be honorable is to be strong and defending you humanity and freedom.

Then he said: "Do not you see that no one abides by the right and everyone embarks on the wrong?" He is talking about the righteousness which people should abide by, and righteousness is the concept that exists in all the issues of human beings, which ascend his position at the individual, political and social levels.
Therefore, we have to present Ashoura to the entire world in its humanitarian aspect, rather than restricting it to a sectarian aspect because Imam Al-Husein peace be with him is the imam of all Muslims and he obtained his Imamate from Prophet Muhammad (p.) with whom Al-Husein peace be with him lived his early childhood. He also lived with his mother, Sayyeda Az-Zahra and his father Ali peace be with him. So, he enjoyed all the elements and characters of spiritual faith these figures enjoyed. Prophet Muhammad (p.) said: "Husein is from me, and I am from Husein", which reveals the spiritual integration between the Prophet (p.) and Al-Husein peace be with him.

The values of reform in the revolution of Imam Al-Husein peace be with him:
Imam Al-Husein peace be with him said: "I revolted neither for wickedness nor for fame. Verily I rose only to seek for reform in the nation of my grandfather; the messenger of Allah." He did not speak about a certain family or region, but about the entire nation, because he was shouldering the responsibility of the whole nation through his Imamate. "I want to enjoin good and forbid wrong and evil", he said. So, he noticed the deviant situation of the nation, because the rule prevailing at that time damaged the humanitarian aspect of the people who used to love Imam Al-Husein peace be with him and his family, but at the same time, they were fighting to earn money or obtain a certain position in the authority, such as Omar BinSa'ad

Congratulations on the auspicious birth (days) of Imam Husain bin Ali bin Abitalib, Imam Ali Zain-ul Abedin and Hadhrat Ab-ul Fadhlil Abbas (peace be with them) to all Muslims and believers.

They (infallible Leaders) never supported the tyrants instead spoken up against the corrupt leaders, oppressors and their corrupt systems. They are a role models for the followers of faith in Godly values and truth seekers, in sacrifice, resistance for freedom and liberty from ignorance and slavery of desires.

Imam Husain (peace be with him): Do not talk about your brother when he is absent except what you would like him to say about you in your absence.
📚[Bihar-ul Anwaar, vol. 78, p. 127]

Imam Ali Zain-ul Abedin (peace be with him) said about his uncle Hadhrat Ab-ul Fadhlil Abbas “may God have mercy with my uncle Abbas. He preferred his brother on himself. He sacrificed himself for his brother until he lost his both hands. Thus instead of his hands, God has given him wings with which he fly in heaven with angles, like Jafar bin Abitalib. On the day of judgement, the blessed and exalted Abbas bin Ali enjoys a rank that all the martyrs will wish similar one.

Imam Zain-ul Abideen:

“.And the right of your father is that you should know that he is your root and you are his branch. And without him, you would not be.

Whenever you see anything in yourself which pleases you, you should know that your father is the root of its blessing upon you.

So praise God and thank Him in recognition of that. And there is no power but in God”

Imam Sadiq (peace be with him) quoted on the authority of his fathers upon the authority of Imam Ali (peace be with him) that God's last Prophet said:

“One of the signs of certitude is that you do not displease God to please the people, and do not admire the people for the daily food that God has granted you through them, and that you do not blame the people for God depriving you of your daily bread.

No one's greed will bring him an increase in his daily sustenance, and no one's jealousy will stop one's daily bread.

If one tries to escape from his daily bread as he escapes from death, one's food seeks its owner faster than death does.

In fact, God the Almighty has established comfort and peace of mind in certitude and contentment, and has established sorrow and discomfort in anger and doubt.”

🌺 3) In the presence of the weak (and incapable), do not show off your strength (and power)

🌺 7) In the presence of orphans, do not talk about your mother and father
