An army of tens of thousands had gathered under the banner of the wretched Yazid, son of Muawiyyah in order to annihilate Imam Husayn (A) and his few companions. Their intention was to murder the grandson of the Prophet and destroy Islam. Imam Husayn (A) and his comrades knew that they were facing certain death. Yet, one man from among the commanders of Yazid’s army paced between the army of Yazid and the camp of Imam Husayn (A). Hurr.

He knew that abandoning Yazid’s forces and joining Imam Husayn’s side would mean certain martyrdom. And yet, what did Hurr choose?
