Commemoration

Martyrdom of Ruqayya bint Imam al-Hussain (as)

The martyrdom of Ruqayya bint Al-Ḥusayn, a four-year-old daughter of Imam Husayn, is described in Kamile Bahai from Kitab al Hawiyah. The family had concealed the fathers' deaths from children, claiming they were on a journey. At Yazid's house, Ruqayya awoke distressed from a dream about her father. Upon Yazid's order, Imam Husayn's head was brought to her. Recognizing it, she lamented poetically, kissed it, and died from grief in Damascus, prompting widespread mourning. Yazid then ordered the heads hanged on city doors.

Commemoration

Martyrdom of Imam al-Hasan (as)

Mu’awiya, having built a strong base in Syria, transformed the caliphate into a hereditary monarchy by appointing his son Yazid as successor, breaching his pledge to Imam Hasan ('a). Anticipating opposition, Mu’awiya orchestrated Hasan's poisoning through his wife Jo’dah bint Ash'ath, promising her 100,000 dirhams and marriage to Yazid, but later reneged on the marriage. After Hasan's death in 669, ‘Aisha, mounted on a mule with Umayyads, prevented his burial beside Prophet Muhammad (S) in Medina, leading to his interment in Jannat-ul-Baqi; Ibn Abbas rebuked her actions.

Event

Battle of Nahrawan

In the Battle of Siffin, Mu’awiya's trick of raising Qur’ans on spears halted the fight, leading to arbitration. Amr ibn ‘As tricked Abu Musa Ash’ari into deposing Ali, then reinstated Mu’awiya as caliph. This sparked the Kharijites' rebellion against Ali for accepting arbitration. They withdrew to Harura, pledged to Abdullah ibn Wahab, moved to Nahrwan, and began killings. Ali confronted them, some repented, but battle ensued at Nahrwan, where Ali prevailed, though it demoralized his forces. Kharijites later persisted, evolving into the Ibadi sect in places like Oman and Algeria.

Martyrdom of Imam Ali al-Rida (as)

Imam Ali al-Ridha, the Eighth Imam, was born in 148 Hijri in Madina and succeeded his father Imam Musa al-Kazim at age 35 in 183 Hijri. Amid Abbasid persecution, he was summoned by Caliph Mamun to Merv in 200 Hijri, appointed heir-apparent to gain Persian support, and led a simple, pious life while establishing Majalis for Karbala commemorations. He died in Tus in 203 Hijri, poisoned by Mamun's orders, and was buried there.

Commemoration

Arba'een Imam al-Hussain (as)

The Day of Arbaeen, marking 40 days after Ashura and the martyrdom of Hussain ibn Ali in the Battle of Karbala, commemorates his stand for social justice against corrupt ruler Yazid. Hussain refused to legitimize Yazid's regime and was killed with his companions. His family, imprisoned and paraded, later exposed Yazid through speeches and spread his message. Today, millions worldwide join marches and an 80km pilgrimage from Najaf to Karbala, the largest peaceful gathering, with volunteers providing aid despite threats.

Death of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh)

Muhammad, the Prophet of Islam, achieved his divine aims in 23 years, including eradicating idolatry and establishing a just state.

He led his last prayer on 26 Safar, praising Abu Bakr and advising the umma. He died on 1 Rabi al-Awwal, aged 63, buried by Ali and family while companions elected Abu Bakr caliph.

Death of Sukayna bint Imam al-Hussain (as)

Sukaynah Bint al-Husayn, daughter of Imam al-Husayn and al-Rabab, was commonly known as Sukaynah, though also called Aminah or Umaymah. She married her cousin 'Abdullah Ibn al-Hasan, martyred in Karbala, and later Mus'ab Ibn al-Zubayr (daughter Rabab born), 'Abdullah Ibn 'Uthman (sons Hakim and 'Uthman), and Zayd Ibn 'Amr. After Karbala captivity to Damascus and Medina, she died in Medina on 5 Rabi' al-Awwal 117 AH under Khalid Ibn 'Abd al-Malik, with burial delayed due to heat. Some claim death in Mecca 126 AH; Damascus shrine is for another Sukaynah. Last marriage questioned by historians.
