Imam al-Sadiq (a) narrates that the Holy Prophet Muhammad (saw) looked at Imam al-Husayn ibn ‘Ali (pbut) [when he was a child] as he was coming to him and sat him on his lap and said:
Verily in the hearts of believers there is a heat [of painful mourning] for the murder of al-Husayn [a] that will never extinguish.

Then Imam al-Sadiq (a) said:
May my father [a] be sacrificed for him; he is the killed one, who is mourned by every tear (قَتِيلُ كُلِّ عَبْرَةٍ).

Someone asked him:
What does ‘the killed one, who is mourned by every tear’ mean, O son of the Prophet of Allah (SWT)?

He (a) responded:
No [true] believer remembers him, except he cries [for what befell him]”.

(Al-Mirza al-Nuri, Mustadrak al-Wasail, v.1, pg. 318)

The Islamic Education Department extends its warmest condolences to the Imam of our Time (aj) in these sad days of Muharram, in which our Imam al-Husayn (a) and his loyal companions were martyred brutally, and his family was mercilessly taken captive.

On this occasion, as part of the ongoing collaboration with Duas.org, we present to you updated versions of PowerPoint presentations of Ziyarats ‘Ashura, Warith and al-Arba’in to be used in our centres.

As a testament of our love for Imam Husayn (a), we also present to you an article that reviews the legitimacy and recommendation of Ziyarat al-Arbain by the Grand Maraji’, titled:
‘Ziyārat al-Arbaʿīn: A Renewed Pledge of Loyalty to Imam Husayn (a).

May Allah (SWT) grant us all the intercession of The Ark of Salvation and Ahl al-Bayt (a) in the hereafter, and make us among their true followers in this temporary world.

Peace be upon Husayn, ‘Ali ibn al-Husayn, the children of Husayn, and the companions of Husayn!
