Hazrat Ali Asghar (as) - The youngest martyr of Karbalaazrat Ali Asghar (AS) - the youngest child of Hazrat Imam Hussain bin Ali ibne Abi Talib (AS) and Hazrat Rubab (AS), the daughter of the chief of the tribe of Kinda Imraul Qays – was born on Rajab 9 in the holy city of Medinah only some days before Imam Hussain (AS) left Madinah. Six-month old Hazrat Ali Asghar (AS), the beloved brother of Hazrat Sakinah bintul Hussain (AS) about whom a saying of Imam Hussain (AS) goes that I do not like the place where Sakinah (AS) is not present, has the honour of being the youngest martyr of Karbala. On Ashur day when all companions of Imam Hussain (AS) were martyred in the desert of Karbala, Imam raised the voice of Isteghasa “Hal min nasiro yansorona”. Responding to the voice, Hazrat Ali Asghar (AS) make himself fell on the ground from the cradle. Hazrat Rubab (AS) told imam (AS) what had happened as he raised his voice of Isteghasa. So Imam (AS) lifted the infant son from the cradle, took him on his hands with cover on Hazrat Ali Asghar (AS) towards the Yazeedi army. As Imam Hussain (AS) reached the battlefield with covered Hazrat Ali Asghar (AS), the army considered that Imam Hussain (AS) has brought Holy Quran. Walking up to Yazeedi army, Imam Hussain (AS) said, while uncovering the infant: “This child has done you no harm; he is dying of thirst; I am asking for a few drops of water for him.” There was stillness in the Yazeedi army. Imam in a clear voice said to Hazrat Ali Asghar (AS): “Asghar! My son, show them how thirsty you are!” Asghar turned his head towards the soldiers; smiled sweetly; opened his mouth; brought out his dry tongue and moved it over his dry lips. The soldiers were so affected by this that they could be heard sobbing. Umar Sa'ad (curse of Allah be upon him) became much worried. It seemed that Imam Hussain (AS)’s 6-month old Hazrat Ali Asghar (AS) was emerging victorious against the might of Yazeed (curse of Allah be upon him). Umar Sa'ad (curse of Allah be upon him) looked at Hurmala - a famous archer - and ordered: “Silence Hussain!” Then at once, Hurmala (curse of Allah be upon him), lifting his bow made 6-month Hazrat Ali Asghar (AS) the target of an arrow, which pierced the innocent infant's neck. Hazrat Ali Asghar (AS) smiled and kissed martyrdom while still in the hands of his father Imam Hussain (AS). Imam Hussain (AS) caught the blood of Hazrat Ali Asghar (AS) in the palm of his hands and wanted to throw it on the sky; at once a heavenly voice came: “Hussain don’t throw it towards sky otherwise it will not rain for ever till the Day of Judgment.” Then Imam Hussain (AS) wanted to pour it on the earth but suddenly a heavenly voice came: “Hussain don’t pour it on the earth otherwise nothing will grow on the earth till the day of resurrection.” So Imam Hussain (AS) applied the blood on his face. Imam (AS) looking at the sky and prayed “O Allah, give me courage in this most difficult moment of my life. No Prophet ever was subjected to a test as severe as this.” Then Imam (AS) walked towards the tent of Hazrat Rubab (AS). As he approached near he saw her standing at the entrance to her tent with anxiety, the hope, the fear and the restlessness in her eyes. Imam (AS) took seven steps back the tent saying “Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi rajeoon”. He again took seven steps forwards saying “Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi rajeoon”. Once again he walked backwards repeating the same ayah. Imam Hussain (AS) did this seven times. At last, Imam went to Hazrat Rubab (AS) with martyred infant and said: “Rubab! This is a test from Allah, which no mother has ever been asked to go through.” Hazrat Ali Asghar (AS)’s holy grave is in the holy city of Karbala. http://www.surprisechat.com/boards/viewthread.php?tid=6653

Ali al-Asghar ibn Husayn
Define Ali Asghar Translate Ali Asghar Ali al-Asghar ibn Husayn Ali al-Asghar ibn Husayn (Tenth of Rajab, 60 AH - Tenth of Muharram, 61 AH) was the youngest child of Husayn ibn Ali (the grandson of the Islamic prophet Muhammad and the third Shia Imam) and Rubab (the daughter of the chief of the Kinda Imra al-Qays tribe). He is honored by Muslims, particularly Shi'a Muslims, as the youngest martyr in the Battle of Karbala. See more at Wikipedia.org... This article uses material from Wikipedia® and is licensed under the GNU Free Documentation License Ali Asghar Baby of Imam Al-Husain, martyred in Karbala. Useful information: On the day of Ashura in Karbala, by the afternoon 70 brave persons had sacrificed their lives in to save Islam. All had fought under nerve racking conditions, severe thirst, dehydration, exhaustion, and agonizing feeling of what would happen to the family of the Prophet (pbuh) afterwards. Husain endured all that and more, for he saw all his beloved ones brutally cut to pieces, including children. Remaining the only one, Imam Husain was to face the enemy head on. Precisely at that moment Imam Husain heard his baby crying incessantly, agonizing because of the thirst. Imam Husain's love for his family was unbound, especially for a suffering baby. He held the six months old baby, his youngest son (Ali Asghar) in his arms, and appealed to the enemy fighters for some water for the baby. Imam wanted to awaken their conscience and stir their human feelings but the stone-hearted enemy, instead of giving water, zoomed an arrow toward the agonizing baby and killed him instantly. Imam Husain was shocked. He felt an unbearable wave of pain. The sight of the limp baby in his arms was agonizingly painful. He filled his palm with the blood of the baby, and threw it upwards toward the sky, complaining to Allah (swt), "O' Allah, O' my Lord! My consolation is the fact that Thou in Thine Majesty are witnessing what I am going through." http://www.babylon.com/definition/Ali_Asghar/All

Shaam-e-Ghariban Aliasghar(A.S)
Shaam-e-Ghariban Aliasghar(A.S)Shaam-e-Ghariban INNA LILLAHEWA INNA ELAIHE RAJEOON! KARBALA! KARBALA! KARBALA! In one day 72 men dead! Companions of Husayn lay dead! Aun-o-Mohammed are dead. Qasim is dead. Abbas is dead. Ali Akber is dead. Ali Asghar is dead. Husayn is dead. Lying on the sands of Karbala are 72 dead men. Their heads severed from their bodies. No ghusl! No kafan! No burial! Lying on the sands of Karbala are 72 dead men! Their bodies trampled by Yazid's horses. The sun was setting in the horizon. River Furaat flowed turbulently breaking its bank. Another night fell on the land of Karbala. The night of Shaam-e-Ghariban. What a lonely night? What a tragic and sad night? No fire! No light! Night of darkness! The air was filled with sounds of ladies and children crying. Widows crying for their husbands. Sisters crying for their brothers. Mothers crying for their children. Little orphans crying for their fathers. Bibi Zainab is not crying. No tears were flowing from her eyes. Husayn is not there to comfort the mothers and orphans but Bibi Zainab is there. She is comforting the mothers and the little orphans. Abbas or Ali Akber are not there to guard the tents but Bibi Zainab is there. She is guarding the tents. Enough! Surely Yazid’s beastly men would leave the ladies and children to mourn their dead ones in peace. But no, they did not……. They came to the tents. They looted all the belongings of the Holy ladies. They even snatched away the ladies' hijab. Fatemah’s daughters were left bare-headed. Shimr, the most evil of Yazid's men, came too. Sakina was crying for her father. Instead of comforting words, Shimr slapped Sakina's face and pulled off earrings from her ears. Blood poured from little Sakina's ears. Surely they would stop now. But they did not. One-by-one they set fire to the tents. The helpless ladies and children ran from one tent to another Little Sakina ran from one tent to another. Her dress was on fire, Her ears were bleeding. All Sakina wanted was her dear father. She ran to the battlefield screaming: "Father, where are you? Father, father……., speak to me father." The seventh tent, which was the last was set on fire. Our 4th Imam, Imam Zainul Abideen was lying unconscious in the bed. Zainab got worried. She had to save the Imam of the time, our 4th Imam. So she rushed to the tent and rescued Imam Zainul Abideen to safety. All the tents were burned down. The Holy ladies and children were left homeless. Tonight is the night of Shaam-e-Ghariban. The night of the homeless. The children were frightened so they ran away to escape the fire, the restless horses and the beatings. Bibi Zainab and Umme Kulthoom went in search of the children. They found some dead, trampled by the horses or burnt by the fire. Zainab and Umme Kulthoom gathered the ladies and children together in a small space, where our 4th Imam was lying. Sakina could not be found. Umme Kulthoom stood guard, while Zainab rushed to the battlefield screaming: "Sakina! Darling Sakina! Where are you? Sakina! Sakina!" Whilst searching, Bibi Zainab reached the area where Husayn's body was lying. There with her head buried in Husayn's chest, lay Sakina deep in sleep! Bibi Zainab gently picked up Sakina and took her back to her mother. Bibi Zainab settled all the ladies and children. She then stood on guard with a broken spear in her hand. Bibi Rubab kept waking up. Zainab said to her: "Rubab! Do not worry. Rest peacefully as the daughter of Ali is on guard. You have nothing to fear, Rubab!" "Zainab, I am not worried but I keep hearing my baby crying. I hear my dearest Ali Asghar crying." Poor Rubab. Poor mother. She was spending the first night without Ali Asghar, her baby. How can she sleep comfortably when Ali Asghar, her baby was lying alone under the sands of Karbala? Bibi Rubab did not stop crying for her baby. Late that night, Zainab had a vision. She saw a man on a horse, riding towards her. She cried out: "O man on the horse! Please do not come any nearer! I have just managed to get the children to sleep. We have nothing left. Please go away!" The rider continued riding towards her. Zainab got very angry. She lifted the broken spear and warned the rider: "Stop! Stop, just there! Do not come any nearer! I am the daughter of Ali! I am warning you to stop just there!" The man on the horse continued to ride towards her. He spoke to Zainab: "Daughter Zainab! Do you not recognize your father, Ali?" Zainab rushed to her father. She threw herself to her father's feet and said: "Baba! I am glad you have come. But you are very late." She continued: "Baba! Where were you when Ali Akber was being killed? Baba! Where were you when Abbas was being killed? Baba! Where were you when Husayn was being killed? Baba! Where were you when our tents were burned down? Baba! Baba! Where were you when our hijab was taken? Baba! Where were you? Where were you? Baba!" "Zainab, my daughter Zainab, you are very tired! I have come to guard your tents. My daughter, Zainab, you have a lot to do tomorrow. Zainab, you will have many sleepless nights. Tonight, my daughter Zainab you rest. I will guard the tents. Go to sleep my daughter, Zainab." YA HUSAYN! YA HUSAYN! YA HUSAYN!

Hazrat Aliasghar - Seyyed Jafar Ghazanfari Khansari, Qom
Hazrat Aliasghar - Seyyed Jafar Ghazanfari Khansari, QomHe smiled, and the world cried in returnArticles In the name of Allah, the most gracious, the most merciful Worldwide Commemoration of Ali Asghar (a.s.) Get together of Hussayni Infants Large Circles of Hussayni Children Our rendezvous: the first Friday of every Moharram Oh Greetings to the Nourrisson! Oh Greetings to the Son of Hussayn! Salam upon the slit throat of Ali Asghar He smiled, and the world cried in return Author: Hojatol Islam Seyyed Jafar Ghazanfari Khansari, Qom Among the companions of Imam Hussayn (a. s.), there were various types of people on the day of Ashoora. They all gave a final warning to the people of the world in their own way. Noblemen and servants together, people of different races, even some who joined Imam Hussayn’s side the very morning of Ashoora, hand in hand fought the battle with Imam Hussayn. An old man, an eighteen-year-old, and a six-month-old… It’s true, in the fight against evil there was an infant who played a significant role. He is the son of Imam Hussayn, Ali Asghar. In no religion or sect is the permission granted to murder an innocent six-month-old child. In no war or battle has it been documented that an army face a child and slaughter him in his father’s hands. There were many a time when Imam Hussayn could have caused similar pain to the enemy, but this would have been against his principles. He had principles of freedom, liberty, humanity and compassion which would be in opposition to such cruel behavior. But what did a parched six-month-old do to deserve such treatment? After Ashoora, Mokhtar Thaghafi (p. b. u. h.) sought revenge for the killing of Imam Hussayn (a. s.) and the news spread to Imam Sajjad (a. s.). They told him that Mokhtar rose up and killed all of those who killed your father and his companions; they were all punished for their actions. Imam Sajjad asked about Harmala. His companions asked why he was so interested in Harmala among all the other enemies. He answered: “You don’t know what this Harmala did to us! When my father, Imam Hussayn (a. s.) was holding my small brother in his arms and walking toward the enemy and saying: “Can’t you see how much this child is in need of water?” Like a fish out of water, after a while, it doesn't have energy to move. It can only move its lips, showing its need for water. At this point, even if you give him water, he won't live. He called out to them: “Give Ali Asghar a drop of water so at least he won’t die parched!” If you are at war with me Be at war with me Take my child and give him water Give him something to drink Imam Sajjad (a. s.) says: “My father was in the middle of uttering such words when Harmala fired a three-headed arrow towards my brother and slit his precious throat.” For what crime was he killed? He is but a child, but he is not small. His hands seem small, but everyone wishes that those hands will help them. The first Friday of Moharram is named the Worldwide Commemoration of Ali Asghar (a. s.). We are honored to take part in the ceremonies commemorating Ali Asghar (a. s.). We hereby invite all heartbroken mothers to join us with their infants in memory of Imam Hussayn and his infant. Throughout the years, there have been many mothers who have received what their hearts desired due to their presence and support in these ceremonies. www.aliasghar.org www.alasghar.com http://www.alasghar.com/images/alasghar1.jpg [/img] http://www.husainiyouths.com/profiles/blog/managePostshttp://www.husainiyouths.com/profiles/blog/show?id=1979414%3http://www.husainiyouths.com/profiles/blog/show?id=1979414%3ABlogPost%3A22379--------------------------------------------------------------------------------http://www.husainiyouths.com/profiles/blog/show?id=1979414%3ABlogPost%3A22379 http://www.forum.shiacenter.org/index.php?f=25&sid=c96ccbdf444d704faf872286ca7a3a28

Shab-e-Aashura (HAZRAT ALI ASGHAR(as)
Shab-e-Aashura (HAZRAT ALI ASGHAR(as))AlMujtaba Islamic Articles > MuharramShab-e-Aashura (HAZRAT ALI ASGHAR(as))Bismillahir Rahmanir RaheemTonight is the 10th night of Moharram.Tonight is the eve of Ashura. A very tragic night. A very sad night. The last night for the 72 martyrs of Karbala.The last night for brothers to be with their sisters. The last night for sisters to be with their brothers. The last night for fathers to be with their children. The last night for mothers to be with their children. The last night for little Sakina to be with her beloved uncle Abbas(as) and dearest father Hussain(a.s).Indeed, a night never to be forgotten.A night to shed more tears. A night to do more matam.THE NIGHT OF ASHURAON THE LAND OF KARBALAMothers are sitting with their children. Umme Laila(sa) is with Ali Akber(as), Umme Farwah(sa) is with Qasim(as), Bibi Zainab (sa)is with Auno- Mohammed.What are these mothers of Karbala telling their beloved children?They are preparing them for Jehad. They are preparing them to sacrifice their lives. Preparing them to die!Why? Because they know Hussain(a.s) is on the right path. The right path to save Islam!Let us send our salaams to those mothers of Karbala for sacrificing their most precious for Islam.Abbas (as)the Alamdar! Like every night, Abbas (as)was guarding the camp.Where was Hussain(a.s)?Hussain(a.s) had gathered all his friends and companions in his tent."My friends, my companions, tonight is the last night. Tomorrow is the day of Ashura. Tomorrow is the day of Shahadat - martyrdom! None of us will be spared by Yazid's soldiers."Imam Hussain(a.s) continued:"My friends, my companions, you have suffered enough. There is still time to save your lives. Escape in the darkness of the night. I will have no objections. I will forgive you. Go, my friends! Go, my companions!"Imam Hussain(a.s) blew the candles off. There was total darkness.Anyone could have escaped without being seen or embarrassed.After a while, Hussain(a.s) lit the candles.How many ran away? One? Two? Five? Ten?No one! Why did they not run away to save their lives?Because, my fellow Hussain(a.s)i, they had recognised the truth.Because they knew Hussain(a.s) was right.Because they knew Hussain(a.s) was on the true path.Because they knew their sacrifice would save Islam.Hussain(a.s) was lucky to be blessed with true friends and best companions, - faithful, truthful and pious!Our greetings to those 72 martyrs of Karbala for their great sacrifice for Islam.Imam Hussain(a.s) made the biggest sacrifice.In one day, he sacrificed his brothers, nephews and children on the land of Karbala.He remained patient after seeing so many dead in one day.Did Hussain(a.s) complain?NO, NEVER!On the contrary, after sacrificing his 18 year old son Ali Akber (as)he looked up at the sky and said:"YA ALLAH, GIVE ME MORE PATIENCE. YA ALLAH, IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE I CAN GIVE FOR YOUR SAKE?"Allah's will was Hussain(a.s)'s command. Hussain(a.s) was prepared and willing to sacrifice his family. He never prayed to Allah to save his family.Instead he prayed for PATIENCE! PATIENCE! AND MORE PATIENCE!ALLAH! WHAT A BIG HEART Hussain(a.s) HAD IN Karbala!Auno - Mohammed had been killed. Qasim(as) was trodden to pieces. Abbas (as)was lying on the bank of River Furaat. Ali Akber's(as) chest was torn open with a spear.Is there any more to sacrifice?Tonight is the night of Ali Asghar(as). The little MUJAHID - the little soldier and the youngest SHAHEED.Ashura came to the land of Karbala.One-by-one, Hussain(a.s)'s friends and companions were martyred.Auno - Mohammed, Qasim, Abbas and Ali Akber went to the battlefield and were martyred.By Asr time Hussain(a.s) was left alone.The time had come for Hussain(a.s) to go to the battlefield. Hussain(a.s) said KHUDA HAFIZ to everyone.Hussain(a.s), with his sword ZULFIQAR on his waist, mounted ZULJANA, his horse.Hussain(a.s) rode his horse to a small mount, he then called out loudly:"IS THERE ANYONE TO HELP ME? IS THERE ANYONE TO HELP THE GRANDSON OF THE HOLY PROPHET?"With this call, the grandson of the Holy Prophet, was giving one last chance to Yazid's men, the men who called themselves Muslims - the followers of the Holy Prophet(s.a.w.w).Hypocrites! That's what Yazid's men were.No one answered Hussain(a.s)'s last call. But Hussain(a.s) heard the sound of crying coming from his camp.Hussain(a.s) turned around and returned to his tents."Zainab(sa), your brother is still alive. Why are you crying?""My brother Hussain(a.s), when you called out, "IS THERE ANYONE TO HELP ME", Ali Asghar (as)fell from his cradle."Hussain(a.s) knew what Ali Asghar (as)was trying to say.Hussain(a.s) went to Umme Rubab. Ali Asghar(as) was on her lap.He was crying and Umme Rubab was trying to comfort him.Hussain(a.s) picked up baby Ali Asghar (as)and whispered in his ear. Ali Asghar(as) stopped crying. He looked up at his father and smiled."Umme Rubab, I am taking Ali Asghar (as)to the battlefield with me so that I can get some water for him."What did Hussain(a.s) whisper in Ali Asghar's ear? What made Ali Asghar(as) stop crying, and to smile? Hussain(a.s) had whispered:"My son, Ali Asghar(as), do you want to come to the battlefield with me? Asghar, do you want to show your strength on the battlefield? Come, let us go, my little Mujahid, my little soldier, Asghar(as)."Umme Rubab changed Ali Asghar's clothes.Imam Hussain(a.s) carried Ali Asghar (as)to the battlefield. It was very hot. Ali Asghar(as) was thirsty. Hussain(a.s) covered baby Ali Asghar(as) with his abaa, to protect him from the scorching sun.Yazid's men saw Hussain(a.s) approaching with something in his hand."Look, Hussain(a.s) is coming with the Quran. He has no one left to help him. With the help of the Quran he is hoping to win."Hussain(a.s) walked to Yazid's soldiers. By moving his abaa he uncovered Ali Asghar(as).He held Ali Asghar(as) high with both his hands and said:"O soldiers of Yazid, you feel I have offended you, but what has this little child done to you? His mother's milk has dried up. He has not had a drop of water for three days. He is dying of thirst. I beg you to give water to this innocent little child."Not one of Yazid's soldiers brought any water for Ali Asghar(as).Once more Imam Hussain(a.s) said:Maybe you think that when you bring water for this child, I will drink it too. I will put this little child on the ground. You can come and give him water yourself."Hussain(a.s) placed Ali Asghar (as)on the burning sand of Karbala.Ali Asghar (as)lay quietly on the hot sand of Karbala. His turned his head and stared at Yazid's men.No water came for Ali Asghar(as).Hussain(a.s) picked up Ali Asghar(as) and said:"My son Ali Asghar, my darling, you are too young to fight with a sword or a spear. My little Mujaheed, my little soldier, you are a grandson of Ali(as). Ali Asghar(as), fight your Jehad with your tongue."Little Asghar (as)stuck his dry tongue out and moved it over his dry lips looking towards Yazid's men. He fought Jehad with his tongue.The little soldier shot a strange arrow - his dry tongue.It hit the hearts of Yazid's soldiers who had children of their own. They became restless. Some started crying.They spoke amongst themselves:"Hussain(a.s) is saying the truth. What has this child done to us? Why is he punished like this? Let us give him some water."Umar Saad got worried that his soldiers will turn against him.The little soldier's fight was very effective. Little Ali Asghar(as) was fighting Jehad his way.Umar Saad ordered his best archer:"Hurmullah! What are you waiting for? Silence the little child! Don't you know he is a grandson of Ali(as)? Hurry, shoot your arrow, before it is too late."Hurmullah aimed an arrow at Ali Asghar(as). A small arrow for a little child? No! An arrow not with one head, not with two heads, but with three sharp heads.Why? Why an arrow with three heads for such a small child?My fellow Hussain(a.s)i! You will not be able to stop crying when you hear what happened next.An arrow with three sharp heads flew across the desert of Karbala. It was heading for Ali Asghar(as). Hussain(a.s) saw the arrow coming. He covered Ali Asghar (as)with his arms.The arrow reached Hussain(a.s).The arrow went through Hussain(a.s)'s arm and lodged in the tiny neck of Ali Asghar(as).Ali Asghar(as) died instantly.Allaho Akber! Allaho Akber!Poor Hussain(a.s), the poor father, who came to get water for his little child.Instead of water, Ali Asghar(as) got an arrow in his neck.What shall Hussain(a.s) do now? What shall Hussain(a.s) do now?Hussain(a.s) gently pulled the arrow from Ali Asghar's (as)tiny neck.My fellow Hussain(a.s)i, put your hand on your heart and imagine the scene - a father removing an arrow from his child's neck. What a tragic scene!Blood gushed out from Ali Asghar's neck.A voice came from the ground:"No, Hussain(a.s), do not let Ali Asghar's blood fall to the ground, otherwise no crops will ever grow from this earth." Hussain(a.s) looked up at the sky.A voice came from the sky:"No Hussain(a.s), do not let the blood gush towards the sky, otherwise, no drop of rain will ever fall from this sky."What shall Hussain(a.s) do now? What shall Hussain(a.s) do now?The sky is refusing, the earth is not happy to accept Asghar's blood.Poor Hussain(a.s) wiped Ali Asghar's blood on his face.Hussain(a.s) started walking towards his tents.He saw Ali Asghar's mother - Umme Rubab - standing by his tent. A mother anxiously waiting for her baby.Hussain(a.s) thought:"How can I face Umme Rubab? What shall I tell her? How can I tell her that her baby has been martyred without water? How? How?"SEVEN TIMES, Hussain(a.s) went forward and then turned back,Saying:"INNA LILLAHE WA INNA ELAIHE RAJEOON."He finally reached the tent where Umme Rubab was standing. "Rubab, come and take your Ali Asghar(as). Rubab, your little soldier has died for the sake of Allah."Umme Rubab took her little child, Ali Asghar(as). She hugged him and cried her heart out."Come with me Rubab. Enough, Rubab, enough. Let us bury our baby Asghar(as)"Hussain(a.s) and Umme Rubab walked to the back of the tents.Hussain(a.s) dug a small grave with his sword, the Zulfiqar.Umme Rubab placed Ali Asghar (as)in the small grave.My fellow Hussain(a.s)i why should we not cry tonight? Why should we not do matam tonight?Have we ever heard of any other father and mother digging a grave and burying their own child?Where can Hussain(a.s) get water to sprinkle on Ali Asghar's grave? There is no water to sprinkle on Ali Asghar's(as) grave.Hussain(a.s) sat by the grave crying.Tears poured on the grave. Ali Asghar's grave was sprinkled with Hussain(a.s)'s tears.INNA LILLAHE WA INNA ELAIHI RAJEOON!WE ARE FROM GOD AND TO GOD WE RETURN!SYEDA ZAINAB ABBAS.Source: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ahlilbait5http://www.almujtaba.com/articles/muharram/000677.htmlwww.aliasghar.orgwww.alasghar.com http://www.husainiyouths.com/profiles/blog/show?id=1979414%3ABlogPost%3A17422
