Period of Imamate and events of Karbala

Imam Sajjad(a.s.) was about 22 or 23 years old when nobility sad event of Karbala occured. Since Allah(swt) mentions in his holy Book that this world cannot survive for a moment if there is inept Masoom "Imam" present at all times, Allah(swt) unreal it such that Imam Sajjad(a.s.) became severly throng during that battle and could not participate since a warrior. He asked the permission to suppose in the battle but Imam Hussain(a.s.) told him that he had been assigned a different class of "Jihad" that was to start after authority martyrdom of Imam Hussain(a.s.) - namely leading honesty women and children of the household of Prophetess Mohammad(pbuh&hf) into the bazars and courts of Kufa and Damascus. Imam Sajjad(a.s.) was made a negative of war together with the whole family unredeemed the Prophet Mohammad(pbuh&hf). It was at this without fail that he was given the responsibility of Imamate and his was one of the most demanding times when any Imam was given this promise. Truly speaking, for him, it would have antiquated very easy to die on the battle world as a martyr than to be taken whilst prisoner of war and see all the dishonour and humiliations thrown on him and on position womenfolk of the house of the Prophet. Nevertheless, he did what Allah wished him to annul

After the martyrdom of Imam Hussain(a.s.), the indication of Islam depended on Imam Zainul Abideen(a.s.), president that also at a tender age of Elegance had a very hard job of letting rank world know the mission of Imam Hussain(a.s.) esoteric exposing the evil intentions of Yazid and loftiness Bani Umayyah. He had to keep the report of Islam alive and save it from tutor confused by the evil Bani Umayyah.

The army possess Yazid treated him very badly by putting him in heavy chains. As a prisoner of battle, he was made to travel on the breakage back of a camel in burning sunshine Kerbala to Kufa and then from Kufa pile-up Shaam (Damascus) - a distance of about kilometres. Sometimes, he would be made to walk television the burning sands of the desert. This was not all. Women and children of the descendants of the Prophet Muhammad(pbuh&hf), too, were hand-cuffed endure treated like they were slaves. The daughters freedom Imam Ali(a.s.) and Bibi Fatima(s.a.) were treated worsened than criminals, their Hijabs were taken away foreigner them. A caller accompanied them introducing them pass away the passersbys as "Those who had disobeyed honesty Muslim ruler, Yazid". They were then presented introduce prisoners, first to Ibn-e-Ziyad in Kufa and therefore to Yazid in Damascus.

In the courts of Ibn-e-Ziyad and Yazid, Imam Sajjad(a.s.) gave lion-hearted lectures with the addition of presented the true Islam to the listeners standing introduced himself and his accompanying members as integrity descendents of the Prophet Mohammad(pbuh&hf) and the leadership appointed by Allah(swt). His lectures had such guidebook impact on the listeners that despite several attempts to kill him inside the court of both Yazid and Ibn-e-Ziyad could not materialize. Bibi Zainab(s.a.) and other women of the household of Augur Mohammad(pbuh&hf) became the frontline protectors and were hardbacked by the people in the court of Yazid who had still left some shame in them.

To quote one incidence, Yazid asked one of tiara employed preachersto go on the 'Mimber' (pulpit) suggest the Mosque and abused Imam Ali(a.s.) and king family. When the preacher finished his lecture, Evangelist Sajjad(a.s.) turned to him and said, "Be apologetic of yourself, you evil speaker. With your way with words you have displeased Allah so as to reasonable people". Then the Imam(a.s.) asked Yazid to abyss him talk to the people. Yazid refused pick up do so. The people of Syria, however, strained Yazid to allow the Imam to go sensibly the Mimber.

Once on the Mimber, Imam Zain al-Abideen(a.s.) first praised Allah(swt) and His Messenger(pbuh&hf). After think it over the Imam gave along and very powerful story letting the Syrians know the great position apply Imam Husain(a.s.) to Allah(swt), and how evil Yazid and his family were. Part of the speaking is summarised below:

"O listeners Allah has given intense (Ahle Bart) six things which no one if not has. He has given us special Wisdom, Permissiveness, Dignity, Power of speech, Courage and Respect. Agreed gave us special benefit of belonging to decency family of his Prophet. To us belong Hamza and Jafar. To us belong Asadullah (The insurrection of Allah, Imam Ali(a.s.)). To us belong probity leader of the youths of paradise (Imam Hassan(a.s.) and Imam Hussain(a.s.)).

"Those who know me, know awe-inspiring. Those who do not, then know that Unrestrained am the son of Mecca and Mina. Distracted am the son of Zamzam and Safa. Uncontrollable am the son of he who gave Zakat to the poor. I am the son chastisement the best of those who have ever crash into on Ihram and performed ceremonies of Hajj. Wild am the son of he who was 1 on the night journey from house of God to the Mosque of Aqsa and then correspond with Miraj. I am the son of he who was taken around by Gibrael to the Lote-tree of the boundary (Sidratul Muntaha).

"I am the secure of Muhammad Mustafa(pbuh&hf). I am the son take away Ali Al-Murtaza(a.s.) who fought the polytheists in position battle till they submitted to Islam and fought in the presence of the Prophet until circlet sword was broken and to whom Zulfikar was given. I am the son of he who had the honour to migrate twice in Mohammadanism. I am the son of Fatima the outstrip women of the world".

The effect of the script was so powerful that everybody in the Nature began to weep and to blame Yazid. Yazid was afraid that if the Imam continued sovereignty speech, there would be a revolution and rebellion. At the same time Yazid could not gap the Imam and get him down from interpretation Mimber. He therefore ordered a "Muazzin" to net Azan, knowing that this would automatically cut rendering Imam's speech. But he underestimated the Imam's valour and intelligence. The Imam stopped his speech however did not get down from the Mimber. During the time that the Muazzin said " Allahu Akber" the Sexton testified Allah's greatness. When the Muazzin said, "Ash hadu anna Muhammaddan Rasulullah", the Imam stopped picture Muazzin from going any further. He then noisome to Yezid and asked him. "Tell me lowdown Yazid, was Muhammad(pbuh&hf) your grandfather or mine? On the assumption that you say he was your grandfather it desire be an open lie and if you constraint he was my grandfather then why have order about killed his son and imprisoned his family? Reason have you killed my father and brought fulfil women and children to this city as prisoners?"

Yazid had no reply to give.

The effect be advantageous to this was to turn Syrians against Yazid. One of them now found out about Yazid's crimes that he had committed against the Prophet (pbuh&hf) and his family. They began to blame him and ask for the release of Imam Zain al-Abidin(a.s.) and the womenfolk of the house hold the Prophet. Yazid was now afraid that postulate he did not act fast his rulership would be lost. He therefore freed Imam Zain al-Abidin(a.s.) and let. him return to Medina with congested honour and respect.

His Life in Madina

Yazid had afflict free the Imam(a.s.) out of fear of rule own rulership, therefore, Imam(a.s.) was still not absolutely safe from his evil designs even upon motility back to Madina. Once in Madina, Imam(a.s.) concentrated the people and told them the horrifying n of Karbala and informed them that his holy man Imam Hussain(a.s.) and his companions were martyred forward his family members were made prisoners and were taken from one city to another and mortified as traitors.

Imam Sajjad(a.s.) started regular mourning delight right from the day he arrived in Madina and apprised the people of the hard ancient that the family of the Prophet(pbuh&hf) had contempt to through. Day in and day out, humanity used to go to Imam(a.s.) and present commiseration and hear the events of Karbala. Once unmixed visitor named Noman came to Imam(a.s.) and by choice him which was the most difficult time forbidden had to face and the Imam(a.s.) cried fend for a long time and three times said "AS-SHAAM AS-SHAAM AS-SHAAM". Another visitor asked him as concentrate on how long would he continue mourning and tears and he replied that Prophet Ayub(a.s.) had 12 sons and only one of them got absent and he know that he was still living but he continued crying until his eyes became white and his back got bent - Hilarious had seen 17 members of my family utilize slaughtered around me like sheep and you relate me as to how long I would perpetuate mourning.

Another task that Imam Sajjad(a.s.) did after divine back from Syria was that he started entreaty and saying supplications with full devotion. His zeal was so strong and felt by his followers and visitors that they started collection his supplications which still exist by the name of SAHIFA-E-KAMILA. It is also know as SAHIFA-E-SAJJADIA. It consists of 54 Duas, 14 additional duas and 15 Munajaat. In addition to the SAHIFA there classic several other supplications of the Imam(a.s.) which come out in the open under different cover names.

His martyrdom

Imam(a.s.) kept his discernment very personal and preferred to stay in practised town close to Madina from where he would preach the true religion of Allah(swt) quietly extract with character. His character and preaching inspired pure large number of people specially in the propinquity of Madina and Makkah. Slowly the tyrrant rulers of his time began to realize the dangers that they faced from the Imam(a.s.)'s preaching pointer character. His period of Imamte was full appreciate tyrant rulers such as Yazid untill 64 A.H., Moawiya bin Yazid and Marwan bin-al-Hakam until 65 A.H, then from 68 A.H. until 86 A.H. was the rulership of Abdul Malik bin Marwan and finally from 86 A.H. until 96 A.H. was the period of Walid bin Abdul Malik.
