The university of Karbela and the lesson of Hussainiat

We are born revolutionaries and Karbela is our university. Some people ask why you people cry for an event that took place some 1400 year back. I must make some clarifications in this regard. Surly we people don’t cry for the offerings made by Hussein on the day of Ashoura to the Almighty. Neither, we people cry for the supreme Sacrifices made before the sunset in the battle field. Although some poets and Mullahs may talk in such a manner but the Holy blood that flow in our veins will always be inspired from Ashoura to be ransom on the noble cause of Humanity and Islam. We are proud of what Hussein did in Karbela and surely his Shiias will make such offerings till the Day of Judgment.
What we cry is not on the death but we cry for not being present there to offer our lives for the noble cause. We feel ashamed of treatment met to the Holy Harem by so called Muslims. A poet said “Ajab Mazaaq Hai Islam Ki Taqdeer Ke saath, Shabbir kA sir Kataa nara e Takbeer ke saath” (What an irony that Hussain was beheaded in the name of Allah). We cry for the poor of the disastrous eve after the battle. Those who may have ruled the state of Islam were deprived of the fundamental right of their life and dignity but also were made captive by the forces of tyrant kingdom.
There is no revolution better then Karbela in the history of mankind because we find no other example where death has been conquered with such a confidence with any lust or the motive for personal gain. We love Hussainiat because it inspires us to rise in the support of the suppressed without hesitation and without thinking about the outcome. We are the community which doesn’t believe in number game or the results. We believe in the justified means and the pious motives. We believe in the justice for all at any cost. So dear fellowmen rise in the name of Allah like Hussein and show the world that we are the real Muslims. We are the group that is not only religious but also possesses good character and moral conduct. We are the people who constitute the complete society and an ideal state. Karbela is calling us all to bring change to this world and to the entire system. Rise… because
“Every day is Ashoura and everywhere it’s Karbela”.
