Commemoration

Martyrdom of Imam al-Askari (as)

Imam al-Hasan al-‘Askari, the eleventh Imam, was born in 232/846 in Medina to mother Susan or Salil. He lived 29 years, divided into periods in Medina and Samarra, with six years of Imamate under Abbasid oppression, including three in prison. Known for eloquence, Qur’anic interpretation, and scholarly influence, he guided Shi’as amid restrictions preparing for his son’s occultation. Martyred by poison in 260/874, his successor, Imam al-Mahdi, was revealed through miraculous signs to devoted followers.

Eid al-Zahra (as)

Eid e Zehra on the 9th of Rabi'al Awwal is a joyous day for AhlulBayt followers, known as the Greatest Eid and second Eid e Ghadeer. It follows 80 days of mourning for Imam Husain's martyrdom in Karbala and deaths of the Prophet, 2nd, 4th, 8th, and 11th Imams. The day marks the start of the 12th Imam's Imamate during his Occultation. It emphasizes Tawalla (love for AhlulBayt) and Tabarra (hatred for their enemies), as per hadiths and Quran.

Birth of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh)

Muhammad was born posthumously in 570 CE in Makkah to Amina after Abdullah's death, inheriting property like camels and sheep, proving prophets can bequeath to children—contrasting later seizure of Fadak from Fatima. Sent to desert nurse Halima for four years, he returned at five; mother died at six, grandfather Abdul Muttalib at eight, who entrusted him to uncle Abu Talib, new Banu Hashim leader. Abu Talib raised him lovingly; at twelve, Muhammad traveled to Syria, earning titles Al-Amin and Sadiq for trustworthiness. At twenty, he joined war without fighting and the League of the Virtuous against exploitation.

Birth of Imam Ja'far al-Sadiq (as)

Ja'far ibn Muhammad al-Sadiq, the sixth Shi’a Imam, born in 83 or 86 A.H., was renowned for his scholarship, piety, and founding Ja’fari jurisprudence. His Imamate (114-148 A.H.) spanned seven caliphs and the Umayyad-Abbasid transition, allowing him to train thousands of students, including Abu-Hanifah, in Islamic sciences. He demonstrated vast knowledge in debates and texts like Tawhid al-Mufaddal, supported Shi’a uprisings such as Zayd’s, confronted tyrants non-violently, and was martyred by poison at age 65 in 148 A.H.

Treaty of Peace between Imam al-Hasan (as) and Muawiyah

Mu'awiya sent al-Hasan a blank stamped page to stipulate peace treaty conditions, which al-Hasan filled with terms beneficial to him, his family, and Shi'a. Historians provide scattered details, with one claiming a complete text refuted by others. Key items include: authority handover conditional on following Quran, Sunna, and righteous Caliphs; succession to al-Hasan then al-Husayn; ceasing curses against Ali; financial provisions like treasury exclusion, annual payments, and martyr compensations; security for all, especially Ali's companions, without pursuit or harm. Mu'awiya confirmed with writing, oath, and witnesses in mid-Jumada al-Ula, 41 AH.
