The Themes of Ashoura

By: The Religious Authority Grand Ayatullah Sayyed Muhammad Husayn Fadlullah

The Ashoura tragedy blurs the struggle and the person overshadows the symbol that it turns into rivers of tears as long as one can remember instead of triggering storms of revolution. Also the emotional and historical conception presents it as a characteristic of the self, in such a way that the broad cause becomes a personal affair instead of the opposite in which the movement of the self is a product of the cause.

This atmosphere has made the commemoration acquire a kind of tradition in the popular and historical reality that it turned out to be a mere popular tradition of emotional tragedy, pride in heroism, and absorption by excitement. In each period, the emotion has been nurtured with new tidings and analyses till the truth has got lost in a flood of lies, and imagination has been set off without restraint that the emotions have formed the significance of the tragedy. Also, a new context has been added to the intellectual content that can neither apply to original Islam nor does it relate to the main issue.

    Saddam killed hundreds of Shi'i Ulamas, prisoned their women and children in jail that could not see the light sun for life. Why Wahhabi, Salafi, Judullah, Taliban, Al Qaeda do not learn from that lesson. Yazid was destroyed Imam Hussain is alive in the heart of Shia. Saddam Hussain was hanged and the Ashura retual is alive in Iraq. (Hashim Okera)
