Lessons of Karbala. Monthly Quran Tafseer mahfil. Shahporan Masjid. Some Lessons from Kerbala 1. Importance of Amr bil Maroof and Nahi Anil Munkar. The event teaches us; not to waiver from the right path & not to panic while discharging obligations. One has to have conviction on the hereafter & focus ones mind on permanent consequences in the hereafter. This has to be done irrespective of how big or strong the enemy is & irrespective of the consequences, but with the knowledge of what Shariat requires us to do under those circumstances. 2. Taqleed & resorting to an Alim & not making your own verdicts on Islamic issues Once there is conviction on the leader & his knowledge, his word is obeyed without any objections/reservation .The importance of knowing fiqh (Islamic practical laws) is seen from the event when Imams sister asks for edict from the Imam of the time, even while the tents are burning. 3. Husband- wife relations. It teaches that the wife is to be a source of peace for husband. Wife should not stop her husband from discharging his duties to HIM. Lady Rabab did not stop Imam even when he took their child towards death. Women should support & encourage their men in discharging their duties to HIM. 4. Importance of Knowledge (ilm).So that life can be led as per HIS will. 5. The event teaches Ikhlas i.e do your duties for HIS sake only, without any Riya (show off), thus belief (Aqaed) in hereafter /Qayamat must be very strong (Yakeen), Only then one can sacrifice material things/pleasure for permanent benefits in hereafter. 6. It teaches us to have control over emotions while acting for HIS sake. At the same time it does not prevent us from expressing our emotions, but without compromising on the actions required for HIS sake. 7. Importance of Hijab & Reservation from all non mehram, whether they are close family friends or non mehram family members. This is seen from many events after 10th Muharram. 8. Importance of Namaz as even during the battle this was remembered. Praying on time & in Congregation (Jamat), Importance of Quran as even the severed head of the Imam was reciting the Quran. 9. The event teaches us to be in Submission to HIS will, at all times, in all states. Imam Hussain (R.A) even offered a Sajda of thanks when every conceivable difficulty was upon him. We too need to find out what is HIS will in all situations, accept it & Act upon it. So that we can be counted amongst the Imams companions.
