BATTLE OF KARBALA (Historical Review) By: Mumtaz Ali Tajddin S. Ali

“A fierce battle was waged against Imam Hussain in Karbala. He fought alone with a thousand persons. Despite suffering oppression and severe pain, he declared, “I am the Imam.” During the moment of such calamities, he did not disappear, but with mere a stick (authority of the Imamate), he penetrated the ranks of the enemies in the battle field. He did not conceal his Imamate. If the dress (jomo) of the Imam is not present, then all will become infidels. The authority of Imam Hussain is with me at present and I myself am Imam Hussain.
