βΎοΈ Martyrdom of Sayed #As_Sajideen, Imam Zain-Ul-Abedeen (a.s)
π Today is the 25th of the month of #Moharram, the day the Survivor of the heartrending tragedy of #Karbala, was martyred through a fatal dose of poison, 34 years after witnessing the bloodcurdling martyrdom of his father #Imam_Hussain (A.S).
πIn addition to supplications that cover everything under the sun, including scientific issues that mankind had not yet discovered a millennium and three centuries age, Imam Zain al-Abedin (A.S), gave the human race their Rights and duties towards each other, and towards our own self. He dictated these set of brilliant rights to one of his disciples, and the result was the ⨓Risalat al-Huqooq” or the Treatise of Rightsβ¨, which has been translated into all major world languages, and is hailed as the finest charter of human rights, more complete and perfect than what is known in our times as the UN Human Rights Charter.
πThe calm and peaceful life of the 4th Imam was not to be tolerated by the cruel Ommayad regime. It realized that the Imam was succeeding in his mission of spreading the message of his father Imam Husain (A.S). The Godless caliph, Waleed ibn Abdul Malik had him poisoned. As a result, Imam Zain al-Abedin (A.S), was martyred this day in Medina in 95 AH.
πHe was laid to rest in the sacred Jannat al- Baqie Cemetery beside his uncle and father-in-law Imam Hasan Mojtaba (AS).
