Doing good to momeneen

Imam Jaffer as-Sadiq (as) said, "He who is not able to do any good unto us (Ahlul-bayt) then he may do good to our pious adherents; and he who is not able to visit us, he may visit our righteous followers by which the reward of visiting us (pilgrimage) will be recorded for him."

Eid-e-Zahra

The greatest Eid for the lovers of Ahlul Bayt a.s.

Congratulations and Eid Mubarak to Imam e Asr (a.t.f.s) & lovers of the Ahlul-Bayt (as).

9th of Rabiul Awwal marks the day when our present Imam a.s. assumed the position of Imamat in 260 AH and the perpetrators of Karbala got their just reward.

It is one of the greatest days in the history of Islam and a Day of happiness and joy for the lovers of Ahlul Bayt a.s., which they mark by holding gatherings/Jashan and thanking Allah swt for His bounties!!!! !

“9th of Rabi al-Awwal is the day of Eid. It is our greatest Eid and the Eid of our followers.”

_{(As narrated to Ahmad ibn Is-haq al-Qummi by Imam Muhammad al-Hadi (A)}

Rasulullah (saww) said, "Train your children in three things, the love of your Prophet, the love of his progeny i.e. Ahlul-bayt, and the recitation of the Quran"

Imām Muḥammad al-Baqir (as) said, "The best means by which servants can obtain nearness to Allah, Mighty and Glorious, is the obedience of Allah, the obedience of his messenger, and the obedience of those charged with (spiritual ) authority." Then, he added; " The love of us (Ahlul-bayt) is Faith (Iman) and the hatred for us in infidelity (kufr)".

After years of grieving for Imam Husain (as) and his companions (as), it was this time of the year when Imam Ali bin Husain Zainul Abideen (as) had a smile on his face. He received the good news that the great companion and true Shia, Al-Mukhtar al-Thaqafy (as) has taken revenge for the Ahlul-bayt (as) and killed off many of the criminals who tortured the Ahlul-bayt (as) in Kerbala.

Today we salute this great companion for his service to the true Islam.

This was the day, in Rabi'a al-Awwal, when Omar ibn Sa'ad [la], the killer of Imam Hussain (as) was killed by Hazrat Mukhtar (as). This was the wretched criminal who was the first one to shoot an arrow towards Imam Hussain (as) on the 9th of Muharram 61 A.H. thus formally starting the war against Imam Hussain (as) ! And he proclaimed, " O people of Kufa and Shaam, be witness hereto on the Day of Judgment, that I am the one who is the first to shoot an arrow at Hussain " ! And saying this, he shot the arrow! Later, Imam Hussain (as) told them (the army of Yezid whose commander was this Omar ibn Sa'ad) that he needs to have a night for prayers !

Al-Mukhtar announced the aims of his revolution in Masjid-e-Kufa, "I'll conform to Allah's Book and to His Apostle's Sunnah. I'll take the revenge on Imam Husain's killers. I'll fight against those who have broken Allah's laws. I'll defend the weak against the strong"

It is only the lucky ones who have the opportunity to celebrate this Eid! This was the day, when for the first time after the massacre of his father Imam Hussain (as) & his companions, that the 4th Imam (as) smiled! Is this not enough an excuse to celebrate ? For, our joys are with the joys of Ma'soomeen (as) and our grief and sorrows are for them alone !

Imām Ja'far al-Sādiq (as) said; "Verily there are various degrees of serving Allah, but affection (and cordial inclination) for us, Ahlul-bayt, is the highest one."

Imām Ja'far al-Sādiq (as) said, "He who is not able to do any good unto us (Ahlul-bayt) then he may do good to our pious adherents; and he who is not able to visit us, he may visit our righteous followers by which the reward of visiting us (pilgrimage) will be recorded for him." We also take this day as an opportunity to curse all the enemies of the Ahlul-bayt (as).

May Allah's wrath fall on all the (past and present) enemies of Ahlul-bayt (as) from the time of their crimes till the Day of Judgment, and also may Allah's wrath fall on all those who were silent and supportive of these crimes. May Allah swt raise us among the helpers of our 12th Imam a.s.
