Imam Husayn (P.B.U.H.)

Imam Husavn (P.B.U.H.) is the younger brother of Imam Hasan. His father is Imam All (P.B.U.H.) and his mother is Fatimah (P.B.U.H.). The daughter of the Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H.) He was born on the third of the month of Sha'ban, in the year 4 AH. In Madinah.

He was the Imam and leader of the Islamic society after Imam Hasan. The Holy Prophet loved Imam Husayn very much. He would kiss Husayn and say:

"Husavn is from me and I am from Husayn, whoever loves Husayn is loved by Allah." Imam Husayn was very intelligent and virtuous. He used to take care of the poor and orphans.

He was noble. Strong and brave and did not submit to humiliation. He rose in combat against oppression. He was truthful and honest. And he hated insincerity and flattery. Imam Husayn once said: "I see nothing in dying in the path of Allah but everlasting happiness. and I see nothing in living in compromise with the oppressors but degradation and humiliation.
