Re: What is the meaning of name ‘Yazeed’
There is mark different between the two. The former was a ‘sacrifice’ and that too not a general one but a special one and thats is why we see that Allah had been time and again sending angels to Prophet (s) to predict the tragedy of Karbala which was not the case with any other individual. And remember, Imam Hussain not only laid down his own life but of his family member and of his Sahaba. He was Imam of the time, so what he did was his religious duty according to the given circumstances and wisdom which is best known by Allah. Hence, it is not irrelevant tosee that entire nature had advanced its grief over the tragedy.
So you cannot compare the rejection of Yazeed by Imam Hussain with that of by any other individual.
If you are referring to the linage of Imam Hussain then I assume you do not have any doubts over that?
The reason Hur (as) is given credit for his timely and wise decision of detachment from evil is not only because of that rather the main purpose is that he came in aid of Ahlulbayt and adhered to them, that is the key you are missing.
Bilkul yehi insaaf hai which tells us that one who adhered to Ahlulbayt is to be respected even if he comes within the pale at the eleventh hour and hence his history will not matter at all where as an individual doing all sorts of Ibadat and doing the most righteous acts BUT not adhering to Ahullbayt is of no use!
