Imam Hussain (as) his kindness, charity and love for the poor

Nov 25, '12 10:21 AM for everyone

Imam Hussain (as) is the grandson of Holy Prophet Mohammad (PBUH). He was well known for his kindness, charity and love for the poor. One day when Imam Hussain (as) was riding through the streets of Madina, he came across some beggars who had gathered together to eat the food that they had begged for during the day. The beggars saw Imam Hussain (as) and invited him to join them. Imam Hussain (as) was not allowed to take anything given in charity (Sadaqah) as he was from the family of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (saw). Sadaqah is forbidden (Haraam) for all members of the family (Ahlul Bayt) of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (saw). Imam Hussain (as) got off his horse and sat down with the beggars. Imam Hussain (as) then explained to them that although he would love to eat with them, he could not because as a member of the family of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (saw) he could not take Sadaqah. As an alternative he invited all of the beggars to his house for food so that they could all eat together. Moral of the Story: You should always be kind to others, especially the poor. You should not compromise your beliefs for anyone, but at the same time you should be polite in how you tell them.

A Garden of Paradise

Bismillah Arrahman Arraheem

Imām Ja'far ibn Muhammad  al-Sādiq (A.S.) said:

“The boundaries of the grave of Imām Husain (a.s.) are twenty ells by twenty ells and it is a garden from the gardens of Paradise. The ascent of the angels to the heavens begins from here. Every proximate angel and every Prophet, chosen as a messenger, asks Allāh for permission to perform the Ziyarat of Imām Husain (a.s.). There is always a crowd descending from heavens to perform the Ziyarat of Imām Husain (a.s.) and a crowd ascending back."

Ziyarat of Imām Husain {a.s.} Dec 3, '12 11:02 AM for everyone Bismillah Arrahman Arraheem Imām Ja'far ibn Muhammad  al-Sādiq (A.S.) said: “One who performs the Ziyarat of Imām Husain (a.s.) has connected with Allāh’s Messenger and with us. It is unlawful to slander him and it is unlawful for Hell to touch his flesh. Allāh will compensate him for every Dirham he spends with ten thousand cities, which will be written for him in a scroll. Allāh will look after all of his needs and everything that he leaves behind will be protected. He will not ask Allāh for anything without Him granting it either immediately or in future."  [Reference: Kamiluz Ziyaraat, Chapter 46, Tradition 1, page 127] ----- A humble request Please do pray for earliest restoration of Jannat al-Baqi; protection of Mausoleum of Sayyidah Zaynab bint ‘Alī ibn Abī Tālib (a.s.) and Sayyidah Ruqayyah/Sakina bint Hussain (a.s.)  & early re-appearance of Imam-E-Zamana (atfs) Iltemase Dua Tags: hadees
