Re: this question is in my head…
LUC: i do not think that ravage did that intentionally. May be it is the way he writes. I do not see any 
or :as: with the name of Imam Hussain either..
and as for your concern, brother remember we can not just ignore the event of Karbala while proving that other Sahaaba Kiraam (RA) got martyred too (Hazrat Ameer Hamzah:razi: for example whose Liver was chewed by Hindah [who became muslim later on though] )
Shias show their love to the family of Prophet:saw: in a different way than we do. No matter how much we have a difference of opinion, the point of the matter remains the love of the same personality. We sunni do not find such mournings and beating of ownselves right as per our beliefs but at the same time, we can not try to prove them wrong by comparing one sahabi to another. That, my friend, we the sinful humans do not have the right of.

Re: this question is in my head...
Why don't you all mourn bigfoot and other Indian chiefs killed by whites. You mourn who you like, and let others mourn who they like. No one is stopping anyone other than a few insecure morons who think that mourning someone somehow threatens their ohso fragile religion.
Re: this question is in my head...
btw madho what is the ahmedi perspective on muharram. i understand that its a sunni offshoot so they dont mourn. yes?

Re: this question is in my head…
Ravage.. I honestly don’t know and I don’t care what their perspective is. My personal perspective is very simple, and that is as follows: Allah :swt: has given me a head to think (a head that is not inside some Molvi’s ass) and if the leaders of my faith tell me that I should go around telling people of other faiths that their ways and means are ‘wrong’, I will gladly leave my faith and start worshiping an Epson Color Printer (laser jet).
Re: this question is in my head...
epson is just wrong. HP mein salvation hei bhai..
Re: this question is in my head…
jee anwaar bhai sahab spot on but i wrote what i wrote to prove a point becoz i was confused as to what the stance of the shi’ite is over the remainder of the islamic year. 2condly yaar no way was i ignoring the event of karbala, i mite not mourn like the shi’ite but i feel as strongly for haz’ imam hussein and co’ and i salute their jazba for giving islam a re-birth. plz don’t get me wrong here.
Re: this question is in my head…

Re: this question is in my head...
beautiful bud, tough message being conveyed through the shairee
Re: this question is in my head…
everyone shall answer for his deeds on the day of judgement…
yes, even the prophets, even the companions and the family of the prophets…
on receiving the revealtion of the verse “wa anzir asheeratak alaqrabeen” (warn ur close family members), the prophet (saw) called out his uncle, aunt, daugther, cousins etc and told them clearly that u all shall answer for ur own deeds and none shall enter paradise JUST BECAUSE he is related to me…
Re: this question is in my head...
^ of course everyone is answerable for thier own deeds, but when the Prophet (saw) constantly called the Hasnain shareefain (as) as the leader of the youths of Paradise, you kinda get a small idea, dont you think?
Re: this question is in my head...
^
there have been others (ashraa-a-mubasshira for example) who have been given the glad tidings of entering jannah....
what i meant was that just belonging to the family did not guarantee them a place in jannah....
they got what they got by good conduct and strict adherene to the teachings of the Prophet (saw)....
the point was that IF they had not done so, and followed the wrong ways, their relation to the prophet (saw) wud not have saved them....
Re: this question is in my head...
oh, thats abit obvious, but i agree relations dont garantee anything.
