The Pride of the Worlds, Saiyyidina Imaam Husaien (Allaah be pleased with him) was the most prominent person of his era. In every way he was superior and exalted in wisdom, action, piety, devotion and lineage. He knew the Laws of Islaam and the Tradition of the Prophet (Sunnat) very well. No one has the chance to speak negatively of his character in anyway.

Hazrat Imaam Hassan and Hazrat Imaam Husaien (may Allaah be well pleased with them both) received this perfect martyrdom from the court of the Holy Prophet (Peace be upon him and his family). This is the perfect martyrdom of the Holy Prophet (Peace be upon him and his family), which manifested itself through the personalities of Hazrat Imaam Hassan and Hazrat Imaam Husaien (may Allaah be well pleased with them both). So, the personalities of Hazrat Imaam Hassan and Hazrat Imaam Husaien (may Allaah be well pleased with them both) are the
‘Location of the manifestation of the perfection of the Chosen One’ (Mazhaare kamaale Mustafaa). Also just as the personalities of Hazrat Imaam Hassan and Hazrat Imaam Husaien (may Allaah be well pleased with them both) are the ‘Location of the manifestation of the perfection of the Chosen One’ (mazhare kamale Mustafaa) it is also the ‘Location of the Beauty of the Chosen One’ (Mazhaare Jamaale Mustafaa). I also explained that Hazrat Imaam Hassan received the greatness of ‘The Secret Martyrdom’ (Shahaadate Sirri) and Hazrat Imaam Husaien received the greatness of ‘The Open Martyrdom’ (Shahaadate Jaahri). This in reality was the greatness and emanation ([Al-Faaiez) of the Holy Prophet (Peace be upon him and his family)...excerpt Speech by Hazrat Maulana Shafee Okarvi [Rahmatul Laahi Alaieh] |
And say not of those who are slain in the way of Allaah:
"They are dead." Nay, they are living, though you do not perceive (their life)....Quraan
Many were martyred in the Community of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him and his family). Allaah [Ta'aalaa] blessed and rewarded many with this great status. Hazrat Umar al-Farooq , Hazrat Usmaan Ghaani and Hazrat Alee (may Allaah Kareem be well pleased with all of them) received this reward. In the Battles of Badr, Uhad and Khyber many Companions of the Holy Prophet were blessed with this great status of being martyred. However the Martyrdom of Imaam Husaien (may Allaah be well pleased with him) is so unique that neither in previous times nor in the latter times can we find another martyrdom to compare with it....excerpt speech-Hazrat Maulana Shafee Okarvi [Rahmatul Laahi Alaieh]

Allaah (Almighty and Glorious is He) says in the Holy Qur'aan, in the 2nd Soorah, al-Baqaraah.
Be sure We shall test you with something of fear and hunger, some loss in goods or lives or the fruits (of your toil), but give glad tidings to those who patiently persevere. Who say, when afflicted with calamity: "To Allaah we belong, and to Him is our return" They are those on whom) blessings descend from their Lord, and Mercy, and they are the ones that receive guidance. |
...Those who drink the nectar of martyrdom, in the path of Almighty Allaah, don’t feel any discomfort at the moment of attaining martyrdom. The effect of the spear, sword or bullet does not cause any discomfort to the martyr. I don’t say this on my own accord; it is a Hadees of the Holy Prophet (Peace be upon him, his family and his companions):
The Holy Prophet Muhammad [Peace be upon him], his family and his companions) said, "The martyr experiences no more pain in being killed than one of you experiences from a sting."... excerpt speech-Hazrat Maulana Shafee Okarvi [Rahmatul Laahi Alaieh] The Holy Prophet (Peace be upon him, his family and his companions) says: One martyred in the way of Allaah, on the first shedding of blood, before the drops of blood reach the ground, he is shown his abode in paradise and He sees the radiations of Allaah Kareem’s beauty unveiled. |
