‍ ⚫️ #Abbas showed his #loyalty to #Hussain at the Battle of #Karbala.

#Abbas_ibn_Ali was the son of Ali ibn Abu Talib and Ummul Baneen.
In reality in Karbala Hazrat Abbas’ effort to satisfy ✨God✨ and carry out his duty, astonished the world.
In Karbala Yazid’s troops cut the water supply to the Imam’s camp.
When the young children could no longer tolerate thirst, Hazrat Abbas volunteered to bring them water. But this was almost impossible.
With his courage, he drove away hordes of enemies and reached the banks of the River Euphrates. Although he was thirsty himself, he never drank a drop of water.
After filling the goatskin water-carrier, while he was making his way towards the Imam’s camp , the cowardly enemy attacked him from all sides. One of his hands was severed when he was struck from behind.
He fought single-handedly with his left arm, which was also severed by the Omayyud marauders. Nevertheless, he spurred his horse towards the Imam’s camp hoping to take water to the thirsty children. Alas, he was not destined to do so. The enemies burst upon him like a pack of jackals and shot arrows in his eye and at his chest piercing the goatskin water-carrier and making the water flow on the ground.
Hazrat Abbas thus drank the cup of eternal martyrdom in this valiant name and the memory of this great sacrifice will remain eternal in history.
In 10th muharam even many non-Muslims bow at the threshold of
Hazrat Abbas in Karbala and beseech ✨God✨ Almighty through him.

🔵 Ayatollah Sayyid Ali Qazi's Recommendation on Reciting the Holy Quran

Ayatollah Nejabat conveyed:
Ayatollah Mirza Ali Qazi had instructed the late Ayatollah Sheikh Ali Mohammad Borujerdi (one of the distinguished students of Mr. Qazi) saying:
"Never separate yourself from the Quran," and they remained loyal and committed to Mr. Qazi's advice until the end of their lives. Whenever they finished their essential tasks and daily routines, they would engage with the Quran, always keeping it close.

💔 A Powerful Lesson from Abu Dharr's Loyalty

🔸 After the passing of Abu Dharr al-Ghifari, Amir al-Mu'minin Ali (AS) said to his companions:
"My heart aches for Abu Dharr. May God have mercy on him."

🔹 The companions asked, "Why, O Master?"
Imam Ali (AS) replied:

"On the night when Uthman’s envoys went to Abu Dharr’s house to demand his allegiance, they offered him four bags of gold to persuade him to accept. Abu Dharr became furious and said to them:

🔸 'You insulted me twice! First, by thinking I could be bought and sold like a commodity. Second, by daring to evaluate Ali's worth at only four bags of gold. Is Ali’s value in your eyes so little that you think I would sell my loyalty to him for such a price? Gather all the wealth in the world, and I still wouldn’t trade a single strand of Ali’s hair for it!'

🔹 He then drove them out and slammed the door shut.

🔸 Imam Ali (AS) wept as he said:
'I swear by the One who holds Ali’s soul in His hands, that night when Abu Dharr slammed the door on Uthman’s soldiers, he and his family had gone three days without eating anything.'

🔴 Let us be careful not to trade our loyalty to Ali for mere worldly gains, no matter how small or large!

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.

Quranic Verses & Hadiths About Hazrat Abbas (AS)

Although Hazrat Abal-Fadl Al-Abbas (AS) is not explicitly mentioned by name in the Quran, many verses reflect his noble characteristics, such as loyalty, bravery, and self-sacrifice. Islamic scholars often associate certain Quranic verses with his virtues, considering him among the true believers and righteous ones.

Quranic Verses Reflecting the Virtues of Hazrat Abbas (AS):

"Among the believers are men who have been true to their covenant with Allah; some of them have fulfilled their pledge [with their lives], and others are waiting [to do so], and they have not changed in the least."
(Surah Al-Ahzab, 33:23)

Many scholars relate this verse to the companions of Imam Hussain (AS), including Hazrat Abbas (AS), who remained steadfast in their promise and sacrificed their lives for the cause of Islam.

"And prefer others over themselves, even though they are in need. And whoever is saved from the greed of his soul—it is they who will be successful."
(Surah Al-Hashr, 59:9)

This verse beautifully describes the ultimate selflessness of Hazrat Abbas (AS), who, despite his own thirst, refused to drink water and prioritized bringing it to the camp of Imam Hussain (AS).

Hadiths About Hazrat Abbas (AS):

Imam Ali (AS) on Abbas (AS):

Imam Ali (AS), when holding his young son Abbas (AS), once said:
"This son of mine will be the standard-bearer of my son Hussain. He will sacrifice his hands in the way of Allah and attain a status that all martyrs will envy on the Day of Judgment."
(Bihar al-Anwar, vol. 42, p. 93)

Imam Hussain (AS) on Abbas (AS):

On the battlefield of Karbala, Imam Hussain (AS) said about his brother:
"May Allah reward you, O my brother, for you have sacrificed yourself for me."

Imam Zainul Abideen (AS) on Abbas (AS):

(Bihar al-Anwar, vol. 44, p. 298)

Visiting Ali Akbar (AS): A Lesson in Faith and Sacrifice 🕊️✨

As revealed by Imam Hussain (AS) in his narration, Ali Akbar (AS) was a true reflection of the Prophet's (PBUH) behavior and character. Imam Hussain (AS) introduced his beloved son as a shining example of the Prophet’s virtues, and made it clear to the people that those in the Umayyad dynasty and their followers were responsible for the murder of such a noble soul in Karbala for the sake of power.

Therefore, the personality and actions of Ali Akbar (AS) must be studied within the context of the Prophet’s (PBUH) life, as we learn deep, spiritual lessons from this connection.

"Ali Akbar (AS) in the Karbala Tragedy"

Ali Akbar (AS) was a devoted soldier at his father's side; a young, noble man with a kind heart, guarding the sanctity of the Ahl al-Bayt. Along with his uncle, Abbas, he frequently went to the river to fetch water for the tents. He also served as the vanguard of Imam Hussain's (AS) army. In some historical accounts, he is said to have been the muezzin of the Imam’s caravan, calling the adhan at prayer time under his father’s command. On Ashura, Imam Hussain (AS) sent Ali Akbar (AS) into battle as the first martyr from the Hashemite family. He fought valiantly but was ultimately surrounded by the enemy, wounded, and martyred.

"Lessons from the Personality of Ali Akbar (AS)"

Creating role models for the youth is a vital cultural responsibility. We must focus on introducing religious figures and heroes to young people so they are not misled by false idols and distorted characters. Understanding the character of Ali Akbar (AS) is essential before he can become a role model. Therefore, the first step is to truly understand his personality. Additionally, to gain a full understanding of Ali Akbar (AS), we should also refer to the Quran, as some narrations indicate that the noble character of the Prophet (PBUH) is a manifestation of the Quran itself.

The presence of Ali Akbar (AS) in Karbala, alongside his father, Imam Hussain (AS), symbolizes the path of true Islam—the path of Imamate. The falsehood lies in the way of those who claimed the caliphate and followed the Saqifah. Imam Hussain (AS) made it clear that throughout history, power-hungry individuals have killed the truth and captured those who stand for it in the name of worldly gains.

Once the youth understand Ali Akbar’s (AS) character, they can follow his example by dedicating their lives to defending the faith and the Imamate, just as he did. His life teaches us about freedom, spiritual growth, sacrifice, loyalty, respect for one's father, and the recognition of one’s place in life.

We commemorate this day as Youth Day, encouraging the youth to continue the legacy of Ali Akbar (AS)—the hero of Ashura. Ali Akbar is not only a part of the movement but a cornerstone of it.

🔹 Lady Khadijah (S) was a noble woman who played an unparalleled role in supporting Islam through her faith, sacrifice, and unwavering support for the Prophet (PBUH). She dedicated all her wealth to the cause of Allah and stood by the Prophet (PBUH) during the most difficult times.

➡️ Lady Khadijah (S) was a true embodiment of this verse, as she gave everything she had for the sake of Islam.

🌹 The Noble Lady of Sacrifice: Umm al-Banin (SA) 🌹

In the gardens of the Ahl al-Bayt (AS), there blooms a flower of loyalty, courage, and motherly devotion: Umm al-Banin (SA), the wife of Imam Ali (AS) and the mother of the courageous Ab al-Fadl al-Abbas (AS) and his noble brothers.

She was not just a mother to her own sons—she was a mother to Imam Hussain (AS) and his family, loving them more than her own flesh and blood. Her heart was a sanctuary of faith, her loyalty a mountain of certainty.

When her four sons marched to Karbala with Imam Hussain (AS), she did not weep for their departure—she wept for Hussain (AS). And when news came of their martyrdom, her first question was: “Tell me about Hussain (AS).”

💔 Such was her love for the Imam (AS) that her own loss became secondary.

Her son, al-Abbas (AS), the flag-bearer of Karbala, the quencher of thirst, learned loyalty from her lap. She raised him not for herself, but for Hussain (AS).

📖 She teaches us:
True love for the Ahl al-Bayt (AS) means loving them above everything—even above our own children.
True loyalty means standing with the truth, even when it costs everything.

🌙 Today, we remember her not only as the mother of Abbas (AS), but as a symbol of faithful womanhood, unwavering loyalty, and selfless love in the path of Allah.

May peace be upon you, O Umm al-Banin, and upon your noble sons, the stars of Karbala.

🌹 Umm al-Banin (SA): The Mother of Loyalty & Sacrifice

She is the woman whose name means “Mother of Sons” — yet she raised those sons not for herself, but for Imam Husain (AS).
She is Umm al-Banin (SA), the wife of Imam Ali (AS) and mother of Abbas (AS), the flag-bearer of Karbala.

💧 Her Love Was for Husain (AS):
When her four sons left for Karbala, she did not weep for them — she wept for Husain (AS).
And when news of their martyrdom came, her first question was:
“Tell me about Husain.”

🕊️ The Mother Who Taught Loyalty:
In her lap, Abbas (AS) learned courage, loyalty, and the meaning of standing with truth until the last breath.
She raised not just sons — she raised standards of faith.

⚔️ Her Legacy in Karbala:
Her son, Abbas (AS), became the “Qamar Bani Hashim” — the moon of the Hashemites — who sacrificed his arms and life to bring water to the thirsty children of Imam Husain (AS).
That bravery was born from a mother’s heart — a heart that loved the Imam more than her own flesh and blood.

🌺 Lessons from Her Life:

· True love for the Ahl al-Bayt means putting them before everything.
· Loyalty is not just a word — it is action till the end.
· A mother’s dua can shape heroes who change history.

🕌 Her Sacred Shrine:
She is buried in Al-Baqīʿ Cemetery in Medina — a place of pilgrimage and prayers, where hearts still seek her intercession.

🌿 We Remember Her Today:
As a symbol of faithful motherhood, unwavering loyalty, and selfless love in the path of Allah.
Her story is not just history — it is a living lesson for every believer.

🤲 O Allah, send blessings upon Umm al-Banin, and grant us the loyalty and love she carried in her heart for the Ahl al-Bayt (AS).
