🔎The Incident of Hira🔍
When the army of Yazeed invaded Madinah Munawwarah there was not a single person who was spared from their atrocities. Thousands of Companions of Rasool’Allah (Salallahu Alaihe Wasallam) were martyred. Nearly every household was looted of their precious belongings and most horrifyingly, hundreds of women were raped in the most blessed city of Rasool’Allah (Salallahu Alaihe Wasallam). (Inna Lillahi wa Inna Ilaihi Raji’oon)

🚫Why Imaam Hussain (Radi’Allaho Ta’Ala Anhu) Declined the Oath.🚫
When Hazrat Ameer Mu’awiyah (Radi’Allaho Ta’Ala Anhu) passed away in Rajab 60 Hijri, his unworthy son Yazeed took over as the leader. Soon after, he sent envoys around the country to invite people to pledge allegiance to him and consider him as their leader. He did the same with governor of Madinah, Waleed bin Uqbah, and asked him to take oath from his people.
In particular, he instructed him to take oath from prominent personalities like Imaam Hussain (Radi’Allaho Ta’Ala Anhu), Hazrat Abdur Rahman bin Hazrat Abu Bakr, Hazrat Abdullah bin Umar and Hazrat Abdullah bin Zubair (Radi’Allaho Ta’Ala Anhu)m Ajmaeen and not to give them any time to think over it. As soon as he received this instruction, Waleed invited Imaam Hussain (Radi’Allaho Ta’Ala Anhu) to the governor’s house and demanded that he pledge allegiance to Yazeed.
Imaam Hussain was very straight forward in declaring that Yazeed, due to his evil practices and wicked nature, was not fit to be the leader of the Muslims and that he would not pledge allegiance to such a person. Upon learning of the decision of Imaam Hussain (Radi’Allahu Ta’Ala Anhu), Waleed calmly tried to convince him and warned him of the consequences that would follow. But when he realised that Imaam Hussain (Radi’Allaho Ta’Ala Anhu) was as firm as a mountain on his decision, he advised him to return home and think carefully over the matter and come again the next day.
Imaam Hussain (Radi’Allaho Ta’Ala Anhu) was well aware of the fact that by declining to pledge allegiance to Yazeed, he had made Yazeed his worst enemy, and that he (Yazeed) would now be after his life. But how can it be possible for the grandson of Rasool’Allah (Salallahu Alaihe Wasallam) to forsake the path of truth and guidance and agree with a tyrant, just to protect his own life? It is clear that if Imaam Hussain (Radi’Allaho Ta’Ala Anhu) had pledged allegiance to Yazeed, he would have been very grateful to Imaam Hussain and would have showered him with gifts and presents, or in fact made him the governor of a province. But the true Imaam knew that if he did so, then the system of Islam would be shattered and chaos would prevail all over; Islamic principles would be ruined and the glorious flag of Islam would never fly high again as the allegiance of Imaam Hussain would have become a stamp of approval for all that Yazeed did, and people would blindly follow him as he would be their leader. This was the only reason why the grandson of Rasool’Allah (Salallahu Alaihe Wasallam) chose to face the trials inflicted by the enemy and even had his family sacrificed right in front of his eyes and shed his own blood in order to save the dwindling and sinking ship of the Ummah.
