Imam Husain (as) and Karbala

The Month of Moharram

قال امام الرضا عليه السلام:

كان أبي صلوات اللّه عليه إذا دخل شهر المحرم لا يرى‏ ضاحكا و كانت الكآبة تغلب عليه حتّى يمضي منه عشرة أيام، فإذا كان يوم العاشر كان ذلك اليوم يوم مصيبته و حزنه و بكائه، و يقول: هو اليوم الذي قتل فيه الحسين عليه السلام

Imam Raza (as) said, "With the advent of the month of Muharram, my father Imam Kadhim (as) would never be seen laughing; gloom and sadness would overcome him for (the first) ten days of the month; and when the tenth day of the month would dawn, it would be a day of tragedy, grief and weeping for him and He would say, "This is the day on which Imam Husain (as) was killed".

[Source: al-Amaali, Shaikh Saduq, Pg. 128]

No day like Ashura!!!

Narrated from Imam Sadiq (as) from his Father (as) from his Grand Father (as):

أن حسين بن علي بن أبي طالب (عليه السلام) دخل يوما على الحسن (عليه السلام) فلما نظر إليه بكى فقال ما يبكيك قال أبكي لما يصنع بك فقال الحسن (عليه السلام) إن الذي يؤتى إلي سم يدس إلي فأقتل به و لكن لا يوم كيومك يا أبا عبد الله

Husain bin Ali bin Abi Talib (as) entered on the day of (Martydom) Al-Hassan (as) and wept when he looked at him. Imam Hasan (as) said: What makes you cry, he said Al-Hassan (peace be upon him) that which is brought to you (Posion)

Imam Hasan (as) said: "And there is no day like your day O'Aba Abdillah."
