77

Imam Hussein (a.s) - the third leader of Islam after the Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H) said:

Swear by God that I shall never join hands with them like the humbled, and do not escape like the slaves'. I assume death nothing else than prosperity, and life with the unjust nothing else than the cause of blame and misfortune.

maghtalel hossein, page 246 & 256


brief description:

karbala is the great and everlasting epic of man's history.
ashura is a non-forgettable day in the history of people and nations who want to remain honorable, live honorably and die honorably, and above two sentences from the speeches of imam hossein (a.s.) are two clear signs of this reality.

قال سیّد الشهداء حسین ابن علی علیه السلام

لا وَاللّهِ لا أُعْطِيهِمْ بِيَدِيْ إعْطَاءَ الدَّليلِ وَ لا أَفِرُّ فِرارَ الْعَبِيْد... إنِّىْ لا أَرَىَ الْمَوْتَ إلاّ سَعادَةً و الحَياةَ مَعَ الظّالِمِينَ إلاّ بَرَما


به خدا سوگند! من هرگز با آنها سازش نمی کنم و نه مانند بردگان، فرار... همانا مردن در نزد من چیزی جز سعادت، و زندگی با ظالمان چیزی جر خجالت و ندامت نیست

مقتل الحسین علیه السلام
صفحه 246/256
