And btw Azadari is for Imam Hussein (as), his family (i.e. Prophet's family) and his companions (included Prophet's companions).

that might be the original purpose of it but now it has only 2 main purposes
1-provide income for the large number of "ulema"
2-social gathering of 12er communities where there lots of food/ small talk but hardly any worship. Pop songs have become "nohas" and "matam" has become synchronized dancing.
Much as I hate these practices of the 12ers today, my hatred for the nawasib is even more.But hating them does not mean I try to justify all the clownsish things you guys do today in the name of "mohabat-e-ahlulbayt"
I have already mentioned the 1 companion who is remembered and Hurr is not a sahabi but tabi'i ]

And if you wish the shias to sing praise for sahabas like Muawiya and Abu Sufyan. Then sorry, its too wishful to expect that.

first pre-requsite for any debate is to atleast listen/read the arguments of ur opponent if u look carefully ...i have only criticized muawiyah & co even uthman] in my posts NEVER praised them or even tried to justify their crimes.
But your attitude is typical of 12ers these days anyone who criticizes them is automatically a supporter of yazid etc a convenient way to deflect criticism.
