Ashura
There is no day like yours o’ Hussain 
There is no doubt that the greatest and the most painful massacre in history was the martyrdom of Hussain (PBUH) and his 72 companions on the day of Ashura.
Imam Hussain (PBUH) was the prophet Muhammad’s grandson who was surrounded by an army of 30,000 people in Karbala, with no water for three days! They fought deliberately in the battlefield but they were all killed and beheaded one by one in front of their families on one day which is called Ashura.
Following the martyrdom of Hussain (PBUH) and his companions, their bodies were trampled by the hoofs of the horses, their tents were burnt in fire and their women and children including Lady Zeinab (PBUH), the prophet Muhammad’s granddaughter, were all captured and moved along with their heads toward the Levant.
There is no day like yours, O’ Aba Abdillah! [Hussain]”
Imam Hassan (PBUH), Al-Amali, Al-Shaykh Al-Saduq, P. 177
لایوم کیومک یا اباعبدالله
This is a quote by Imam Hassan (PBUH) about his brother, Imam Hussain (PBUH) before his martyrdom.

Tasua | Imam Hussain quote
Now my back is broken !
#ImamHussain cried out these words of grief when he found his brother, #Abbas , fallen off his horse and fatally struck in #Karbala
اأَلانَ إنکَسَرَ ظَهرِي وَ قَلَّت حِيلَتِي وَ انقَطَعَ رَجائِي وَ شَمُتَ بِي عَدوِّي وَ الکَمَدُ قاتِلي
الان کمرم شکست و چاره ام کم شد و امیدم قطع و دشمن مرا زخم زبان می زند و غصّه تو مرا می کشد

Ashura | The real story of Ashura by Imam Mahdi
Although we heard about the tragedy of Ashura but if we want to know the real story of Ashura, I think we should read a prayer known as Ziyarat Nahiyah which has been said by the last man remained from the descendant of Imam Hussain, Imam Mahdi (may Allah Hasten his reappearance). If we read this prayer carefully, we can understand that this prayer is not just a prayer, It’s saying of Imam Mahdi to introduce Imam Hussain and the real event of Ashura to the world.
See the following images including some parts of Ziyarat Nahiyah
Peace be upon the son of the last prophet
Peace be upon the one saturated in his blood
Peace be upon the most alone person
Peace be upon the dry lips
Peace be upon the one who the heavenly angels wept for
Peace be upon [Hussain] whom God placed the cure in his grave’s soil

Imam Javad Qoute
Imam Javad (PBUH) said: God will be satisfied if a person has three points:
1-Asking God for forgiveness a lot
2- Good companionship
3- Giving Sadaqah (Voluntary Charity) a lot
وَ قالَ الْجَوادُ عليه السلام: ثَـلاثٌ يَبْلُغْنَ بِالْعَبْدِ رِضْوانَ اللّه ِ تَعالى: كِثْـرَةُ الاْءسْتِغفـارِ وَلِينُ الْجانِبِ وَكَثْرةُ الصَّدَقَةِ
امام جواد عليه السلام فرمود: سه چيز است كه اگر در كسى باشد سبب خوشنودى خداست
زياد استغفار كردن
و همنشينى خوب
زياد صدقه دادن

Imam Hussain sees who is crying for him
Love toward Imam Hussain is not a one-sided love. He looks at us while we are crying for him and he prays for us and asks God to forgive us.
The first day of Muharram is coming again and our hearts are igniting again for the martyrdom of Imam Hussain.
Imam Sadiq (PBUH):

Imam Hussain’s prayer to God on the day of Arafah
Day of “Arafah” is the 9th day of Dhu al-Hijjah, the twelfth month in the Islamic calendar and the month before Muharram.
It was narrated that on the day of “Arafah”, Imam Hussain (PBUH) along with a group of his family members and some of his followers came out the tent at the desert of “Arafat”, a place located near the city of Mecca. Imam Hussain then stood towards the Ka’bah and raised up his hands and pray to God while his face were flowed with tears.
Imam Hussain’s prayer which is called Arafah prayer (Dua Arafa) contains with the highest theological and spiritual teachings. Shia Muslim people recite this Dua on the same day each year during Haj pilgrimage or even far from Mecca at their local mosques or the holy shrines.
Arafah 2018 is on this coming Tuesday, on the 21th of Aug. So, I prepared the following image with a part of Imam Hussain’s prayer to God on the day of Arafah:
“…O’ my Lord!…and [O’] the revealer of the Torah and the Bible and the Psalms and the Furqan, and the revealer of kaf-ha-ya-`ayn-sad and Ta-ha and Ya-Sin and the Quran, full of wisdom! You are my haven when the wide courses fail to carry me and when the earth, despite its width, becomes too narrow to bear me…”
