The Saga of Karbala did not end with the martyrdom of Hussain, nor did his mission. His death was the initiation of a long ordeal faced by the family of Imam Hussain (a.s.). During this ordeal, it was the timeless sermons of Bibi Zainab and the fourth Imam Sajjad (a.s.) which truly pierced the hardened hearts of the people, sparked a revolution, and introduced change.
The sermon of Lady Zaynab and the sermon of Imam Zaynul ‘Abidīn complement one another: Zaynab’s sermon formed the “tabarra” dimension and Imam Zaynul ‘Abidīn’s sermon formed the “tawalla” dimension: the former exposed the real identity of the oppressors, while the latter introduced the true, pure image of the Prophet’s family.
This short yet concise booklet details the background, context, and content of both sermons in order to provide further insight to the struggle and message of Karbala.
