Imprisonment of Imam Musa al-Khadim (as)

Day of Arafah

The Hajj pilgrimage requires traveling from Mecca to Arafat (knowledge) to remain until sunset on the ninth day, then briefly stopping at Mashar (consciousness) and staying in Mina (love and faith) from the tenth to twelfth or thirteenth day. These stages symbolize man's creation, descent from paradise after rebellion influenced by Satan and Eve, acquisition of wisdom and responsibility, repentance, and an eternal, restless movement toward Allah as direction, not destination, approaching absolute perfection through knowledge, consciousness, and love.

Matyrdom of Muslim ibn Aqil (as)

He wept for al-Husayn's impending danger and made a will. Hani' Ibn Urwa was also killed in the marketplace. Their heads were sent to Yazid, who praised Ibn Ziyad's actions.
