said: "to bear witness that there is no God but Allah and that I am the Messenger of Allah and that 'Isa (Jesus) (a.s) is created a slave (of Allah), and he used to eat, drink and relieve himself”.

They said: “Then who was his father”? The revelation was then revealed to the Messenger of Allah saying: “Say to them - what do you say about Adam, was he a created servant (of Allah), who would eat, drink, relieve himself and cohabit”?

So the Prophet asked them and they replied: “Yes”. He (Prophet) asked them: “Then who was his father”? They could not answer, so Allah revealed:

Verily, the similitude of Jesus with Allah is as the similitude of Adam; Allah created him out of dust, then said to him, ‘Be’, and he became (3:59)

till the verse:

And should anyone argue with you concerning him, after the knowledge that has come to you…. and call down Allah’s curse upon the liars. (3:61)

The Messenger of God said: “So challenge me: if I am telling the truth the curse falls on you, and if I am a liar the curse falls on me”. They said: “You have been just”.

They agreed on a date for ‘mubahala’ (mutual imprecation). [The term 'Mubahala' is derived from its Arabic root 'bahlah' meaning 'curse'. Thus the act of al-Mubahala means that each of the two parties invokes the curse of Allah on the other if the latter is untruthful].

When they returned to the places they were staying in, their leaders al-Sayyid, al-'Aqib and al-Ahtam said: “If he challenges us with his people, we accept the challenge for he is not a Prophet; but if he challenges us with his family in particular we don't challenge him, for he is not going to put forward his family unless he is truthful”.
In the morning, they came to the Messenger of Allah, and there with him were the Commander of the Faithful Ali, Fatimah, Hasan and Husayn peace be with them, so the Christians said: “Who are those”? The people replied: “This is his cousin and successor and son-in-law, and this is his daughter Fatimah, and these are his grandsons, Hasan and Husayn”.

When the Christian delegation saw a woman, two children and only one man with the Prophet, they were frightened and worried and said to the Messenger of Allah: “We will pay tax so excuse us from the ‘mubahala’”. Then the Messenger of Allah made a settlement with them for them to pay the Jizya like muslims were paying zakaat and khums and then they left.’
= = = = = = = = = = = = = =
This event has been related in both Sunni and Shi’i books of hadith and Qur’anic exegesis (tafsir).
It is related in the al-Tafsir of al-Tha’labi:

When the Prophet called the Christians for the imprecation they said: 'Let us return and think over it.' When they were alone, they asked al-'Aqib - and he was a man of good judgment among them: 'O 'Abd al-Masih! What is your opinion? , He said: ' By Allah! You are well-aware, O Christians, that Muhammad is a prophet sent by Allah, and that he has brought to you the decisive word about your Companion ('Jesus of Nazareth).

By Allah! Whenever a nation has entered into imprecation with a prophet, their elders have perished and their youngsters have died. And if you do it, we shall surely perish; but, if you turn down, for the love of your religion and (want) to remain on what you have at present, then make peace with the man and go back to your towns.

"So they came to the Messenger of Allah; and he had come out in the morning carrying Husayn in his lap, holding the hand of Hasan, with Fatimah walking behind him and 'Ali was behind her; and he was saying: 'When I pray, you say "Amen" '. Then the Bishop of Najran said: 'O Christians! Surely I see the faces that if they ask Allah to remove a mountain from its place, He would surely remove it. Therefore, do not do imprecation, otherwise you will perish, and there will not remain any Christian on the face of the earth, upto the Day of Resurrection’.

"Then they said: 'O Abu'l-Qasim! We have decided that we should not enter into imprecation against you; and that we leave you on your religion and we remain on our religion.'

He said: 'Well, if you ref

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

🔷The Black Market

The dependants of Imam Ja'afer Sadiq (a.s.) had increased in number; so had his expenses. The Imam decided to invest some money in trade to meet the increased expenses of the house. He arranged for an amount of a thousand Dinars which he gave to his slave named 'Musadif' directing him to proceed to Egypt and to invest the amount in business on behalf of Imam.

Musadif purchased some goods usually exported to Egypt, and joined a Caravan of traders, who were taking the same type of merchandise to Egypt.

When they reached near Egypt, they met another Caravan coming out of the City. They enquired about each other's affairs. During the course of conversation, they learnt that the goods which Musadif and his friends were carrying were not available in Egypt and were in great demand there. They became very happy at their good fortune. Indeed that was an article of common use and people had to buy it at all costs.

The traders on hearing the good news decided to exploit the situation. They agreed together not to sell the goods less than one hundred percent profit.

They entered the city. The situation was same as they had been told. As previously agreed, they created a black market, and did not sell the goods any less than double its cost.

Musadif returned to Medina with a net profit of one thousand Dinars. Happy as he was he went to Imam Sadiq, and placed before him two bags, each containing one thousand Dinars. The Imam asked

"What is this?"

To which Musadif replied, “One of the two bags represents the capital you gave me, and the other one (which is equal to the capital) is the profit I have made"

Imam said, “Certainly the profit is unexpectedly high. Tell me how could you make so much profit?"

Musadif said, “The fact is when we learnt near Egypt that the merchandise we were carrying had become scarce there, we agreed NOT to sell the goods less than double its cost; and we did accordingly'."

Imam replied, "Glory be to God (from this mischief)! You did such a work? You took oath to create a black market among the Muslims?! You swore not to sell the goods less than double the actual cost??

No. I don't want such business and such profit'."

Then picking up one of the bags, he said, "This is my capital."

He did not even touch the other one, and said that he did not want to have any connection with that.

Then he said:

"O Musadif! It is easier to fight with a sword than to earn the livelihood lawfully."

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.

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

Safwān Jammal Kufi was a very pious companion of Imām Ja’far Sadiq (peace be with him) and Imām Mūsa Kāzim (peace be with him). He used to earn his livelihood by hiring out camels. He owned a large number of camels.

He says that one day Imām Kāzim (peace be with him) said to him, "Safwan every action of yours is meritorious except one."

"May I be sacrificed for you, what action is that?"
Imām said, "You hire your camels to Harun-ar Rashīd.”

He said, "I dont give my camels for gathering wealth, hunting or games or any luxuries, rather he takes them for Makkah (when he goes for Hajj) and I do not serve him myself, I order my servants to accompany them on the journey."

Imām asked, "Do you expect rent after their return?"

I said: "Yes after their return".

He replied, "Don’t you carry the hope that they return safe and sound from their journey so that you receive your payment?"

"Yes."

Imām (peace be with him) said, "One who wishes for them to remain alive is like them and one who is connected with them will go to Hell.”

Safwan says,”I came back and then I sold away all my camels. When Harun heard of this he summoned me and asked the reason for it, saying I heard you sold out your camels, why? I replied, “I have become old and weak and I am unable to take care of the camels, even my servants are not capable of maintaining it properly."

Harun said, "Never, never It is not so! I know who has persuaded you to do this. You have done this on the direction of Musa son of Ja’far.”

What do I have to do with Musa son of Jafar?" said Safwan.

But Harun was not satisfied and said to leave these words, for had it not been for their good relations he would have killed me.


صفوان بن مهران کے پاس بہت سارے اونٹ تھے اور وہ انہیں کرایہ پر دینے کی تجارت کرتے تھے اور اس طرح اپنی زندگی بسر کرتے تھے۔ (عربی میں اونٹ کو جَمَل کہتے ہیں) تو اسی لیے صفوان کو صفوان جمّال کہتے ہیں۔

صفوان کہتے ہیں ایک بار میں امام کاظم کی خدمت میں حاضر ہوا تو
حضرت نے فرمایا: صفوان تمہارا ہر کام اچھا ہے سواے ایک کام کے! صفوان نے پوچھا: میں آپ قربان جائوں وہ کیا ہے؟
امام نے فرمایا: کیا تم اپنے اونٹوں کو، اس آدمی کو (ہارون رشید عباسی کی طرف اشارہ کرتے ہوئے فرمایا) کرایہ پر دیتے ہو؟
صفوان نے عرض کیا: خدا کی قسم حرص و ہوس اور عیاشی کی خاطر یا دولت جمع کرنے کے لیے یہ کام نہیں کرتا ہوں، بلکہ جب وہ (ہارون) حج کے لیے جاتا ہے تب میں اسے اونٹ کرایہ پر دیتا ہوں۔ اور میں خود ساتھ نہیں جاتا بلکہ اپنے غلاموں کو کاروان کے ساتھ بہیجتا ہوں۔

امام فرماتے ہیں: کیا تمہیں اُس سے کرایہ لیتے ہو؟
جواب دیا: آپ کا یہ غلام آپ پر فدا ہو، جی ہاں۔
امام فرماتے ہیں: تو تمہاری تمنا ہے کہ وہ لوگ زندہ رہیں اور واپسی پر تمہیں کرایہ ملے؟
جواب دیا: جی ہاں۔
امام فرماتے ہیں: جو اُن لوگوں کے جینے کی آرزو رکھتا ہے وہ بھی اُنہی میں سے ہے۔ اور جو اُن میں سے ہے وہ جہنم میں جانے والا ہے۔
صفوان کہتے ہیں: میں واپس آیا اور سارے اونٹ بیچ دیے اور جب یہ خبر ہارون کو پہنچی تو اس نے مجھے بُلوایا اور سوال کیا؛ مجھے خبر ملی ہے تم نے اپنے سارے اونٹ بیچ دیے، کیوں کیا تم نے یہ کام؟
میں نے جواب دیا: ہاں سارے اونٹ بیچ دیے کیوں کہ میں بوڑہا ہو گیا ہوں (اب کام کی ہمت نہیں ہوتی) اور میرے غلام بھی صحیح طرح سے کام نہیں کر پاتے۔
ہارون کو بہت غصہ آیا اور کہا: ہرگز ہرگز ایسا نہیں ہے تم نے موسی بن جعفر کے اشارہ پر یہ کام کیا ہے۔
میں نے کہا: موسی بن جعفر سے میرا کیا لینا دینا ہے۔

ہارون کہتا ہے: رہنے دو ان باتوں کو، واللہ اگر تمہاری میرے ساتھ دوستی نہ ہوتی تو تمہیں قتل کر دیتا۔

said: "to bear witness that there is no God but Allah and that I am the Messenger of Allah and that 'Isa (Jesus) (a.s) is created a slave (of Allah), and he used to eat, drink and relieve himself”.

They said: “Then who was his father”? The revelation was then revealed to the Messenger of Allah saying: “Say to them - what do you say about Adam, was he a created servant (of Allah), who would eat, drink, relieve himself and cohabit”?

So the Prophet asked them and they replied: “Yes”. He (Prophet) asked them: “Then who was his father”? They could not answer, so Allah revealed:

Verily, the similitude of Jesus with Allah is as the similitude of Adam; Allah created him out of dust, then said to him, ‘Be’, and he became (3:59)

till the verse:

And should anyone argue with you concerning him, after the knowledge that has come to you…. and call down Allah’s curse upon the liars. (3:61)

The Messenger of God said: “So challenge me: if I am telling the truth the curse falls on you, and if I am a liar the curse falls on me”. They said: “You have been just”.

They agreed on a date for ‘mubahala’ (mutual imprecation). [The term 'Mubahala' is derived from its Arabic root 'bahlah' meaning 'curse'. Thus the act of al-Mubahala means that each of the two parties invokes the curse of Allah on the other if the latter is untruthful].

When they returned to the places they were staying in, their leaders al-Sayyid, al-'Aqib and al-Ahtam said: “If he challenges us with his people, we accept the challenge for he is not a Prophet; but if he challenges us with his family in particular we don't challenge him, for he is not going to put forward his family unless he is truthful”.
In the morning, they came to the Messenger of Allah, and there with him were the Commander of the Faithful Ali, Fatimah, Hasan and Husayn peace be with them, so the Christians said: “Who are those”? The people replied: “This is his cousin and successor and son-in-law, and this is his daughter Fatimah, and these are his grandsons, Hasan and Husayn”.

When the Christian delegation saw a woman, two children and only one man with the Prophet, they were frightened and worried and said to the Messenger of Allah: “We will pay tax so excuse us from the ‘mubahala’”. Then the Messenger of Allah made a settlement with them for them to pay the Jizya like muslims were paying zakaat and khums and then they left.’

This event has been related in both Sunni and Shi’i books of hadith and Qur’anic exegesis (tafsir).
It is related in the al-Tafsir of al-Tha’labi:

When the Prophet called the Christians for the imprecation they said: 'Let us return and think over it.' When they were alone, they asked al-'Aqib - and he was a man of good judgment among them: 'O 'Abd al-Masih! What is your opinion? , He said: ' By Allah! You are well-aware, O Christians, that Muhammad is a prophet sent by Allah, and that he has brought to you the decisive word about your Companion ('Jesus of Nazareth).

By Allah! Whenever a nation has entered into imprecation with a prophet, their elders have perished and their youngsters have died. And if you do it, we shall surely perish; but, if you turn down, for the love of your religion and (want) to remain on what you have at present, then make peace with the man and go back to your towns.

"So they came to the Messenger of Allah; and he had come out in the morning carrying Husayn in his lap, holding the hand of Hasan, with Fatimah walking behind him and 'Ali was behind her; and he was saying: 'When I pray, you say "Amen" '. Then the Bishop of Najran said: 'O Christians! Surely I see the faces that if they ask Allah to remove a mountain from its place, He would surely remove it. Therefore, do not do imprecation, otherwise you will perish, and there will not remain any Christian on the face of the earth, upto the Day of Resurrection’.

"Then they said: 'O Abu'l-Qasim! We have decided that we should not enter into imprecation against you; and that we leave you on your religion and we remain on our religion.'

He said: 'Well, if you ref

💠 What is the Difference between Fatima Zahra and other women?

📍Answer by Ayatollah Fadlallah

💠 The difference is that Fatimah (peace be with her) possessed a degree of spiritual depth in her personality that made her a manifestation of the message. Most women with a mission have a commitment to the message which comes from outside of themselves. By contrast, for Fatimah (peace be with her) it came from inside her mind and heart and soul, because she lived the whole of her life with the message and under the wing of the Messenger of Allah (peace be with him and his Progeny), and then opened herself up to the full vigor of the message in the House of Ali (peace be with him), and moved dynamically in the emotion of the message with Hasan and Husain (peace be with them). Therefore, she lived the message. This is the difference between depth and shallowness. You cannot find anything in her personal life that speaks of leisure of purposelessness. This is what makes her a role model - the ultimate role model.
