🐎Departure of Imaam Hussain (Radi’Allaho Ta’Ala Anhu)🐎

On receiving the letter from Imam Muslim, Imaam Hussain (Radi’Allaho Ta’Ala Anhu) was convinced that it was safe to leave and he sat off towards Kufa with 72 family members and associates. On the way he learnt about the death of Imam Muslim and also about the disloyal nature of the people of Kufa. When Kufa was only a short distance away, Hurr bin Riyaahi came with an army of one thousand soldiers and said, ‘I am under orders from Ubaidullah to arrest you. But because I respect you, I advise you to turn back.’ Imam Hussain started to move from there at night but by morning they were in a desolate plain called Karbala. Imam Hussain (Radi’Allaho Ta’Ala Anhu) dismounted from his ride and said:
‘This is Karbala, the place of pains and trials. This is where our camels will sit, this is where we will get down, and this is where my family will be sacrificed.’

The day was Thursday the 2nd of Muharram, 61 Hijri. Ubaidullah sent a large army who surrounded the camp of Imaam Hussain (Radi’Allaho Ta’Ala Anhu) and stopped water on them from the river Euphrates. Allahu Akbar! The grandson of the Master of the Pond of Kausar had the water stopped upon him and his family. Thousands of troops surrounded them, only a small group of people consisting of women and children. Imaam Hussain (Radi’Allaho Ta’Ala Anhu) is left with two gruesome choices; to pledge allegiance to Yazeed or to die. But Imaam Hussain, who was an embodiment of patience and endurance, chose to die but decided not to give his hand to the tyrant Yazeed.
