The following is an extract from the aforementioned book: “Salam to Hussein ibn Ali (as), who with the few companions he had, rose against the oppression of those who unjustly called themselves the caliph of the Muslims. Imam Hussein (as) wanted to end the oppression they were inflicting by rising against them. Although the Imam had very few companions and equipment, he never surrendered to oppressors. In order to spread the slogan, ‘hayhaat min al-dhilla’ or ‘(we the true followers of God's chosen messenger) never bear contempt (of allegiance)’, to all those who are supporters of justice and truth, Imam Hussein (as) made Karbala a place where he sacrificed himself, his children and his few companions.”
