"Kullo yawm'in 'Ashura, Kullo ardh'in Karbala"
Muharram is the Islamic month during which shias from across the world mourn over the tragedy of Karbala. Karbala is the place
of freedom, where Imam Hussein and his army, including his brothers, sisters, sons and daughters fought for Islam.
Shi'ites are normally very emotional, and usually stereotyped as terrorists. We are not so...we are just believers. We believe
in a lot of things...including Ashura. Ashura, the day it all happenned. Every year on the tenth of Muharram (Ashura) we cry,
we mourn, we feel, and we believe.
Would you like to learn more about this tragic war, this great man and all his sacrifices? For a short summary of the war
of Karbala, why it happenned and more, please visit KARBALA - CHAIN OF EVENTS. Or if you would like to read a great book written
about this war, pick up "The Tragedy of Karbala" by Syed Abid.
