Stories of Karbala

Where the Roots and Branches of Faith Were Lived

Volume 1

❧

Everything we believe and everything we practise, the Usul al-Din and the Furu al-Din, was lived out on the plain of Karbala in a single day and night. Tawhid, Adl, Nubuwwah, Imamah, and the Hereafter, together with prayer, patience, repentance, and standing for what is right, are not only words to memorise. These twelve true stories show what each one looks like when a believer lives it with everything they have. Each opens with the words of the Ma'sumeen (a). Read slowly. Remember, reflect, learn, and carry it on.

اَللّٰهُمَّ عَجِّلْ لِوَلِيِّكَ الْفَرَج

Allahumma 'ajjil li-waliyyikal-faraj

O Allah, hasten the return of our Imam al-Mahdi (ajtf).
