Mourners commemorated the tragic martyrdom anniversary of Imam Hasan (Peace Be Upon Him) at the Imam Hussain Shrine on Wednesday, October 17, 2018.
A symbolic coffin – on top of which a symbolic turban, representing Imam Hasan’s, was placed – was carried around the Imam Hussain Shrine and the Abbas Shrine—the enactment ended in a lecture on Imam Hasan’s (Peace Be Upon Him) life, held at the Imam Hussain Shrine.
Every year, on the 7th of Safar month, according to the Islamic calendar, Muslims following the Ahlul-Bayet (Peace Be Upon Them) commemorate this martyrdom anniversary.
Imam Hasan is son of Imam Ali Bin Abi Talib (Peace Be Upon Them). Narrations tell that Imam Hasan (Peace Be Upon Him) was poisoned by his wife Ju’deh Bint El’esh’eth at the behest of Muawiyah—the tyrant.
Narrations also tell that Imam Hussain prepared the funeral of Imam Hasan – his brother – (Peace Be Upon Them) and carried the coffin to the mosque of the Messenger of God, Mohammed (God’s Blessings and Peace Be Upon Him and His Pure Family). As the coffin approached the mosque, Marwan and his henchmen intercepted it and pelted it with arrows.
