Our condolences to all the believers upon the martyrdom of the third divinely appointed Imam, Imam Husayn (A), his family members, and his companions.

This year, for the months of Muharram and Safar, sister Zainab Barakat brings us special episodes of Today I Thought that pivot around certain fundamental ideas within the great epic of Karbala.

In this episode, sister Zainab Barakat speaks to us about whether the whole purpose of Karbala is to merely mourn over what happened, or is there a much greater plan; planned by Allah, which also includes every single one of us?

Islam owes the survival of its essence due to the great sacrifice of not only Imam Husayn (A), but to the great sacrifice of all those around him.

Salutations be upon Husayn, upon Ali ibn al-Husayn, the children of Husayn, and the companions of Husayn.
