Wafat of Ma'soomah-e-Qum Print E-mail

Holy Lady Fatemah Ma'soomah - Her childhood

In the holy city of Medina, the holy household was awaiting the arrival of a new born.  In the house of Imam Kadhim (A.S.), Najma, the wife of the honourable Imam was eagerly looking forward to the arrival of the child; she was counting days and nights for that day. The Imam's house was overwhelmed with happiness.  Finally, the day arrived, on the 1st of Dhil-Qa'dah 173 (A.H.) when Allah blessed the 7th Imam Musa Kadhim (A.S.) with a daughter. The child's appearance was brilliant and cheerful and she opened her pure bright eyes to this world in the house of Imam.

14 Lessons from KARBALA Print E-mail

1. DO NOT ACCEPT HUMILIATION : In one of his speeches, Imam Hussein a.s. said that the authorities in Kufa had given him only two options - humiliation or death. He carried on to say,'And we do not accept humiliation'. A tradition reported by Imam Sadiq a.s records that, other than not accepting humiliation, Allah Almighty has given to believers a choice in all matters.

2. BROAD-MINDNESS : This means thinking independently and being just in one's judgements. Not simply following others blindly and keeping one's eyes closed. On the Day of Ashura Imam Hussein a.s. addressed Yazid's troops:O followers of Abu Sufyan, if you are not following the teachings of Islam then as freemen, be independent of judgement. On what basis do you fight me now?
