♦️ The Only European Martyr of the Sacred Defense, Who Was Martyred in the Mersad Operation

Today marks the anniversary of the Mersad Operation. As I was searching for material to write about this operation, I came across this martyr... It seems that among the martyrs, he is very overlooked! So, let’s honor this operation's anniversary by remembering this dear martyr 🌹

✅ Jerome Emmanuel, known as Kamal Corsal, was born in France and is the only European martyr of the eight-year Sacred Defense period.

Under the luminous teachings of Du’a Kumayl, he became a Shia. Corsal attributed his conversion to Shia Islam to Du’a Kumayl of Imam Ali (AS) and preferred to be called Ali or Abu Haydar.

✅ His father recounts that Kamal's comrades said he fell into the enemy's ambush during the Mersad Operation after several fronts against the forces of falsehood. After enduring several days of thirst, he remarked that he could finally understand the hardships endured by Imam Hussain (AS) and his companions.

⚘️ Let's honor the memory of the 1,095 martyrs of the Mersad Operation, including 108 non-Iranian martyrs of the Badr Corps: 105 Iraqis, 2 Bahrainis, and 1 Frenchman. 🌺

Newly Converted American Muslim: Hazrat Abbas (AS) Became My Hero

Reported by Rahyafte (Comprehensive Platform for Preachers and New Muslims)

A newly converted American Muslim has expressed his deep admiration for Hazrat Abal-Fadl Al-Abbas (AS), recalling the heroism and sacrifice of the standard-bearer of Karbala. Azam Naseem Johnson, in a post on his Facebook page, shared his first encounter with the story of Karbala.

He wrote:

"I remember when I first studied the events of Karbala, the first character I came across was Abbas (AS). I read how Abbas (AS) went to fetch water and how he was ruthlessly killed, and how, until the last moment, he tried to deliver the water to his family! I don’t know what happened, but for a while, I forgot his name. However, I never forgot his loyalty to his family, nor the strength and determination he exerted for success. His sacrifice will always remain in my heart. Abbas (AS) became my hero. Please, in your prayers, ask God to grant me that same resolve and determination in His path. Subhanallah!"

This beautiful reflection of devotion and admiration for Hazrat Abbas (AS) highlights the profound impact of his character, even inspiring those from outside the Muslim world. May Allah grant all of us the courage and faith to follow in the footsteps of such noble figures.
