تفسیر صفحۀ ۴۸ قرآن کریم - سورۀ بقره - آیۀ ۲۸۲ - تفسیر نور:

«یا أَیُّهَا الَّذِینَ آمَنُوا إِذا تَدایَنْتُمْ بِدَیْنٍ إِلی‏ أَجَلٍ مُسَمًّی فَاکْتُبُوهُ وَ لْیَکْتُبْ بَیْنَکُمْ کاتِبٌ بِالْعَدْلِ وَ لا یَأْبَ کاتِبٌ أَنْ یَکْتُبَ کَما عَلَّمَهُ اللَّهُ فَلْیَکْتُبْ وَ لْیُمْلِلِ الَّذِی عَلَیْهِ الْحَقُّ وَ لْیَتَّقِ اللَّهَ رَبَّهُ وَ لا یَبْخَسْ مِنْهُ شَیْئاً فَإِنْ کانَ الَّذِی عَلَیْهِ الْحَقُّ سَفِیهاً أَوْ ضَعِیفاً أَوْ لا یَسْتَطِیعُ أَنْ یُمِلَّ هُوَ فَلْیُمْلِلْ وَلِیُّهُ بِالْعَدْلِ وَ اسْتَشْهِدُوا شَهِیدَیْنِ مِنْ رِجالِکُمْ فَإِنْ لَمْ یَکُونا رَجُلَیْنِ فَرَجُلٌ وَ امْرَأَتانِ مِمَّنْ تَرْضَوْنَ مِنَ الشُّهَداءِ أَنْ تَضِلَّ إِحْداهُما فَتُذَکِّرَ إِحْداهُمَا الْأُخْری‏ وَ لا یَأْبَ الشُّهَداءُ إِذا ما دُعُوا وَ لا تَسْئَمُوا أَنْ تَکْتُبُوهُ صَغِیراً أَوْ کَبِیراً إِلی‏ أَجَلِهِ ذلِکُمْ أَقْسَطُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ وَ أَقْوَمُ لِلشَّهادَةِ وَ أَدْنی‏ أَلاَّ تَرْتابُوا إِلاَّ أَنْ تَکُونَ تِجارَةً حاضِرَةً تُدِیرُونَها بَیْنَکُمْ فَلَیْسَ عَلَیْکُمْ جُناحٌ أَلاَّ تَکْتُبُوها وَ أَشْهِدُوا إِذا تَبایَعْتُمْ وَ لا یُضَارَّ کاتِبٌ وَ لا شَهِیدٌ وَ إِنْ تَفْعَلُوا فَإِنَّهُ فُسُوقٌ بِکُمْ وَ اتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَ یُعَلِّمُکُمُ اللَّهُ وَ اللَّهُ بِکُلِّ شَیْ‏ءٍ عَلِیمٌ»‌‌‌ای کسانی که ایمان آورده‌‏اید! هنگامی‌که بدهی مدّت‌داری (بر اثر وام یا معامله) به یکدیگر پیدا می‌‏کنید، آن را بنویسید و باید نویسنده‌ای در میان شما به عدالت (سند را) بنویسد.

کسی که قدرت بر نویسندگی دارد، نباید از نوشتن خودداری کند، همان‌طور که خدا به او تعلیم داده است. پس باید او بنویسد و آن کس که حق بر ذمّۀ او (بدهکار) است املا کند و از خدایی که پرورگار اوست بپرهیزد و چیزی از آن فروگذار ننماید.

و اگر کسی که حق بر ذمّۀ اوست، سفیه یا (از نظر عقل) ضعیف و یا (به جهت لال بودن) توانایی بر املا کردن ندارد، باید ولیّ او (به جای او) با رعایت عدالت (مدّت و مقدار بدهی را) املا کند و دو نفر از مردان را (بر این حقّ) شاهد بگیرد و اگر دو مرد نبودند، یک مرد و دو زن از گواهان، از کسانی که مورد رضایت و اطمینان شما هستند (انتخاب کنید) تا اگر یکی از آنان فراموش کرد، دیگری به او یادآوری کند.

و شهود نباید به هنگامی‌که آنها را (برای ادای شهادت) دعوت می‌کنند خودداری نمایند. و از نوشتن (بدهی‌های) کوچک یا بزرگِ مدّت‏‌دار، ملول نشوید (هر چه باشد بنویسید،) این در نزد خدا به عدالت نزدیک‌تر و برای ادای شهادت استوارتر و برای جلوگیری از شک و تردید بهتر می‌‏باشد، مگر اینکه تجارت و داد و ستد نقدی باشد که در میان خود دست‌به‌دست می‌کنید که ایرادی بر شما نیست که آن را ننویسید.

و هنگامی‌که خرید و فروش (نقدی) می‌‏کنید، (باز هم) شاهد بگیرید و نباید به نویسنده و شاهد (به خاطر حق‌گویی) زیانی برسد (و تحت فشار قرار گیرد) و اگر چنین کنید از فرمان خداوند خارج شده‌‏اید و از خدا بپرهیزید و خداوند (راه درست زندگی را) به شما تعلیم می‌‏دهد و خداوند به هر چیزی داناست.
بزرگ‌ترین آیۀ قرآن:

سورۀ بقره - آیۀ ۲۸۲
نکته‌های سورۀ بقره - آیۀ ۲۸۲:

این آیه، دربارۀ مسائل حقوقی و نحوۀ تنظیم اسناد تجاری می‌‏باشد.

این آیه نشانۀ دقّت نظر و جامعیّت اسلام است که در دورۀ جاهلیّت و در میان مردمی‌عقب‌افتاده، دقیق‌‏ترین مسائل حقوقی را طرح کرده است.

کلمه «تَدایَنْتُمْ» از «بِدَیْنٍ» به معنای بدهی، شامل هر گونه معاملۀ غیر نقدی، وام و خرید سَلَف می‌شود.

در حدیث آمده است: اگر کسی در معامله سند و شاهد نگیرد و مالش در معرض تلف قرار گیرد، هر چه دعا کند، خداوند مستجاب نمی‏‌کند و می‌‏فرماید: چرا به سفارشات من عمل نکردی؟! «کنز الدقائق، ج ۲، ص ۴۶۷»

اگر دقّت در حفظ حقوق فردی ضروری است، حفظ بیت‌المال به مراتب ضروری‏‌تر است!

تنظیم سند، حتّی در معاملات نقدی مفید است، ولی ضرورت آن به اندازۀ معاملات نسیه نیست. چون در معاملات موعددار، ممکن است طرف‌های معامله و یا شاهدان از دنیا بروند یا فراموش کنند، بنا بر این لازم است نوشته هم بشود.

از فرمان نوشتن، معلوم می‌‌شود که اسناد تنظیم شده‌‏ای که همراه با گواهی عادل باشد، قابل استشهاد است.

از این آیه استفاده می‌شود که جامعۀ اسلامی‌باید یکدیگر را در حفظ حقوق حمایت کنند؛ زیرا هر معامله‌‏ای، نیاز به کاتب و چند شاهد دارد.

در زمانی که در تمام جزیرة‌العرب به گفتۀ مورخان، ۱۷ باسواد بیشتر نبوده، این همه سخن از نوشتن، نشانۀ توجّه اسلام به علم و حفظ حقوق است.
پیام‌های سورۀ بقره - آیۀ ۲۸۲:

۱. ایمان، بستر و مقدّمۀ عمل به احکام، و خطاب «یا أَیُّهَا الَّذِینَ آمَنُوا» تشویقی برای عمل به احکام است.

۲. مدّت بدهکاری، باید روشن باشد. «إِلی‏ أَجَلٍ مُسَمًّی»

۳. برای حفظ اعتماد و خوش‌‏بینی به همدیگر و آرامش روحی طرفین و جلوگیری از فراموشی، انکار و سوء‌ظن، باید بدهی‏‌ها نوشته شود. «فَاکْتُبُوهُ»

۴. برای اطمینان و حفظ قرارداد از دخل و تصرّف احتمالی طرفین، سند باید با حضور طرفین و توسط شخص سوّمی‌نوشته شود. «وَ لْیَکْتُبْ بَیْنَکُمْ کاتِبٌ»

۵. نویسندۀ قرارداد، حق را در نظر گرفته و عین واقع را بنویسد. «بِالْعَدْلِ» شرط گزینش نویسندۀ اسناد، داشتن عدالت در قلم است.

۶. به شکرانۀ سواد و علمی‌که خداوند به ما داده است، کارگشایی کنیم. «وَ لا یَأْبَ کاتِبٌ أَنْ یَکْتُبَ کَما عَلَّمَهُ اللَّهُ»

۷. اهل هر فن و حرفه‌‏ای مسئولیّت ویژه دارد، کسی که قلم دارد باید برای مردم بنویسد. «وَ لا یَأْبَ کاتِبٌ أَنْ یَکْتُبَ»

۸. باید بدهکار که حق بر ذمّۀ اوست، متن قرار داد را بگوید و کاتب بنویسد، نه آنچه را بستان‌کار ادعا نماید. «وَ لْیُمْلِلِ الَّذِی عَلَیْهِ الْحَقُّ»

۹. اقرار انسان علیه خودش، قابل قبول است. «وَ لْیُمْلِلِ الَّذِی عَلَیْهِ الْحَقُّ»

۱۰. بدهکار، هنگام املای قرارداد باید خدا را در نظر بگیرد و چیزی را فروگذار نکند و تمام خصوصیّات بدهی را بگوید. «وَ لْیَتَّقِ اللَّهَ رَبَّهُ»

۱۱. تدوین قانون باید به گونه‌‏ای باشد که حقّ ناتوان ضایع نشود. اگر بدهکار، سفیه یا ضعیف و ناتوان و یا گنگ و لال بود، سرپرست و ولیّ او متن قرارداد را بگوید و کاتب بنویسد. «فَإِنْ کانَ الَّذِی عَلَیْهِ الْحَقُّ سَفِیهاً أَوْ ضَعِیفاً» «فَلْیُمْلِلْ وَلِیُّهُ»

۱۲. سفیهان و ناتوانان در مناسبات اجتماعی، نیازمند ولی هستند. «فَلْیُمْلِلْ وَلِیُّهُ»

۱۳.توجّه به حقوق طبقۀ محروم و اقشار ضعیف، از سوی مسئولان و سرپرستان لازم است. «فَلْیُمْلِلْ» صیغۀ امر نشانۀ لزوم این کار است.

۱۴. مردان، در گواه شدن و گواهی دادن بر زنان مقدّم می‌‏باشند. «شَهِیدَیْنِ مِنْ رِجالِکُمْ»

۱۵. گواهان باید عادل و مورد اطمینان و رضایت طرفین باشند. «مِمَّنْ تَرْضَوْنَ»

۱۶. هر کدام از مردها به تنهایی می‏‌توانند شاهد باشند، ولی اگر شاهد یک مرد و دو زن بود، آن دو زن به اتفاق هم ادای شهادت کنند. تا اگر یکی لغزش یا اشتباه کرد، نفر دوّم یادآوری کند. «فَتُذَکِّرَ إِحْداهُمَا»

دو زن به جای یک مرد در گواهی، یا به خاطر روحیّۀ ظریف و عاطفی آنهاست و یا به جهت آن است که معمولًا زنان در مسائل بازار و اقتصاد حضور فعّال ندارند و آشنایی آنها با نحوۀ معاملات کمتر است.

۱۷. اگر برای شاهد گرفتن از شما دعوت کردند، خودداری نکنید، گرچه گواه شدن بدون دعوت واجب نیست. «وَ لا یَأْبَ الشُّهَداءُ إِذا ما دُعُوا»

۱۸. مبلغ قرارداد مهم نیست؛ حفظ اطمینان و حقّ‌الناس مهم است. «وَ لا تَسْئَمُوا أَنْ تَکْتُبُوهُ صَغِیراً أَوْ کَبِیراً»

۱۹. ثبتِ سند به صورت دقیق و عادلانه سه فایده دارد:

الف: ضامن اجرای عدالت است «أَقْسَطُ»؛

ب: موجب جرأت گواهان بر شهادت دادن است «أَقْوَمُ»؛

ج: مانع ایجاد بدبینی در جامعه است «أَدْنی‏ أَلَّا تَرْتابُوا».

۲۰. اگر فایده و اسرار احکام برای مردم گفته شود، پذیرفتن آن آسان می‌شود. «ذلِکُمْ أَقْسَطُ»

۲۱. معطل شدن امروز برای نوشتن قرارداد، بهتر از فتنه و اختلاف فرداست. «أَدْنی‏ أَلَّا تَرْتابُوا»

۲۲. در معاملات نقدی، لزومی‌به نوشتن نیست. «إِلَّا أَنْ تَکُونَ تِجارَةً حاضِرَةً»

۲۳. در معاملات نقدی، اگرچه نوشتن لازم نیست، ولی شاهد بگیرید. «فَلَیْسَ عَلَیْکُمْ جُناحٌ أَلَّا تَکْتُبُوها وَ أَشْهِدُوا إِذا تَبایَعْتُمْ»

۲۴. کاتب و شاهد در امان هستند و نباید به خاطر حقّ نوشتن و حقّ گفتن مورد آزار و اذیّت یکی از طرفین قرار گیرند. «لا یُضَارَّ کاتِبٌ وَ لا شَهِیدٌ»

۲۵. اگر ادای شهادت و یا نوشتن قرارداد، نیازمند زمان یا تحمّل زحمتی بود، باید شاهد و کاتب به نحوی تأمین مالی شوند وگرنه هر دو ضرر خواهند کرد. «وَ لا یُضَارَّ کاتِبٌ وَ لا شَهِیدٌ»

۲۶. کاتب و شاهد حق ندارند سند را به گونه‌‏ای تنظیم کنند که به یکی از طرفین ضرری وارد شود. «لا یُضَارَّ کاتِبٌ وَ لا شَهِیدٌ»

۲۷. هر گونه خدشه در سند، از هر کس که باشد، فسق و گناه است. «فَإِنَّهُ فُسُوقٌ»

۲۸. کاتب و شاهد، مرزبان حقوق مردم هستند و شکستن مرزها همان خروج از مرز و فسق است.«فَإِنَّهُ فُسُوقٌ»

۲۹. قلب پاک و با تقوی، همچون آینه علوم و حقایق را می‌گیرد. «وَ اتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَ یُعَلِّمُکُمُ اللَّهُ»

۳۰. خداوند تمام نیازهای مادّی و معنوی شما را می‌‏داند و بر اساس آن، احکام و قوانین را برای شما بیان می‌کند. قانون‌گذار باید آگاهی عمیق و گسترده داشته باشد. «وَ اللَّهُ بِکُلِّ شَیْ‏ءٍ عَلِیمٌ»

تفسیر سوره مبارکه انعام آیات ۱۵۹تا۱۶۰

إِنَّ الَّذِینَ فَرَّقُوا دِینَهُمْ وَکَانُوا شِیَعًا لَسْتَ مِنْهُمْ فِی شَیْءٍ إِنَّمَا أَمْرُهُمْ إِلَى اللَّهِ ثُمَّ یُنَبِّئُهُمْ بِمَا کَانُوا یَفْعَلُونَ ﴿۱۵۹﴾

۱۵۹ - کسانى که آئین خود را پراکنده ساختند و به دسته جات گوناگون (و مذاهب مختلف) تقسیم شدند هیچگونه ارتباطى با آنها ندارى، کار آنها واگذار به خدا است پس خدا آنها را از آنچه انجام مى دادند با خبر مى کند.

You have nothing to do with those who have made divisions in their religion and become sects. Their affair is with Allah and He will inform them of what they have done. (159)

مَنْ جَاءَ بِالْحَسَنَةِ فَلَهُ عَشْرُ أَمْثَالِهَا وَمَنْ جَاءَ بِالسَّیِّئَةِ فَلَا یُجْزَى إِلَّا مِثْلَهَا وَهُمْ لَا یُظْلَمُونَ ﴿۱۶۰﴾

۱۶۰- هر کس کار نیکى بیاورد ده برابر آن پاداش خواهد داشت و هر کس کار بدى بیاورد جز به مقدار آن کیفر نخواهد دید و ستمى بر آنها نخواهد شد.

He who brings a good deed shall have tenfold of its like, but he who brings a sin shall be recompensed only for its like. None shall be wronged. (160)

تفسیر
بیگانگى از نفاق افکنان
در تعقیب دستورات دهگانه اى که در آیات قبل گذشت و در آخر آن فرمان به پیروى از (صراط مستقیم خدا) و مبارزه با هر گونه نفاق و اختلاف داده شده بود، این آیه در حقیقت تاکید و تفسیر و توضیحى روى همین مطلب است .
نخست مى فرماید: (آنها که آئین و مذهب خود را پراکنده کردند و به دسته‌هاى مختلف تقسیم شدند، در هیچ چیز با آنها ارتباط ندارى و آنها نیز هیچگونه ارتباطى با مکتب تو ندارند) زیرا مکتب تو مکتب توحید و صراط مستقیم است و صراط مستقیم و راه راست همواره یکى بیش نیست (ان الذین فرقوا دینهم و کانوا شیعا لست منهم فى شى ء).
سپس به عنوان تهدید و توبیخ اینگونه افراد تفرقه انداز، مى گوید: (کار اینها واگذار به خدا است، و آنها را از اعمالشان آگاه خواهد ساخت ) (انما امرهم الى الله ثم ینبئهم بما کانوا یفعلون ).
در اینجا توجه به دو نکته لازم است :
۱- هدف آیه چه اشخاصى هستند؟
جمعى از مفسران معتقدند که آیه درباره یهود و نصارى نازل شده است که به دسته جات مختلف و پراکنده تقسیم شدند، و در برابر یکدیگر صف بندى کردند.
ولى عقیده بعضى دیگر این است که آیه اشاره به تفرقه اندازان این امت است که بر اثر تعصبها و روح تفوق طلبى و عشق به ریاست ، سرچشمه تفرقه و نفاق ، در میان مردم مسلمان مى شوند.
ولى محتواى آیه یک حکم عمومى و همگانى درباره تمام افراد تفرقه انداز است ، که با ایجاد انواع بدعتها، میان بندگان خدا، بذر نفاق و اختلاف مى پاشند اعم از آنها که در امتهاى پیشین بودند، یا آنها که در این امتند.
و اگر مشاهده مى کنیم که در روایات اهلبیت و همچنین اهل تسنن نقل شده است که این آیه اشاره به گمراهان و تفرقه اندازان و بدعتگزاران این امت است ، در حقیقت از قبیل بیان مصداق ، مى باشد زیرا اگر این مصداق بیان نمى شد، ممکن بود عده اى تصور کنند که منظور از آن منحصرا دیگران هستند و به اصطلاح ضمیر را به دیگران برگردانند و خود را تبرئه کنند!.
در روایتى از امام باقر (ع ) که در تفسیر على بن ابراهیم در ذیل این آیه نقل شده چنین مى خوانیم : فارقوا امیرالمومنین علیه السلام و صاروا احزابا: (یعنى آیه اشاره به کسانى است که از امیر مومنان جدا شدند و به دسته جات مختلف تقسیم گردیدند).
روایاتى که در زمینه افتراق و پراکندگى این امت - به عنوان پیش بینى - از پیامبر اسلام (صلى اللّه علیه و آله و سلّم ) نقل شده ، نیز این حقیقت را تایید مى کند.
زشتى تفرقه و نفاق
این آیه بار دیگر، این حقیقت را که اسلام آئین وحدت و یگانگى است و از هر گونه نفاق و تفرقه و پراکندگى بیزار است با تاکید تمام بازگو مى کند و به پیامبر مى گوید برنامه و کار تو هیچگونه شباهتى با افراد تفرقه انداز ندارد، خداوند منتقم قهار از آنان انتقام خواهد گرفت ، و عاقبت شوم اعمالشان را به آنها نشان مى دهد.
توحید نه تنها یکى از اصول اسلام است بلکه تمام اصول و فروع اسلام و همه برنامه‌هاى آن بر محور توحید دور مى زند، توحید روحى است در کالبد همه تعلیمات اسلام ، توحید جانى است که در پیکر اسلام دمیده شده است .
اما با نهایت تاسف آئینى که سر تا پاى آن را وحدت و یگانگى تشکیل مى دهد، امروز آنچنان دستخوش تفرقه نفاق افکنان شده است که چهره اصلى خود
را به کلى از دست داده ، هر روز نغمه شومى همانند صداى جغدى که در ویرانه مى خواند از گوشه اى بلند مى شود، و شخصى ماجراجو یا مبتلا به بیمارى روانى و یا کج سلیقه اى پرچم مخالفت با یکى از برنامه‌هاى اسلامى بلند مى کند و جمعى از افراد ابله و نادان را گرد خود جمع مى نماید، و منشا اختلاف تازه اى مى شود.
نقش بى اطلاعى و جهل جمعى از توده مردم در این نفاق افکنى، همانند نقش بیدارى و آگاهى دشمنان، بسیار موثر است .
گاهى مسائلى را که قرنها موضوع بحث آن گذشته است ، از نو علم مى کنند و جار و جنجال ابلهانه اى پیرامون آن راه مى اندازند تا افکار مردم را به خود مشغول سازند، اما همانطور که آیه فوق مى گوید، اسلام از آنها بیگانه است و آنها نیز از اسلام بیگانه اند و سرانجام برنامه‌هاى نفاق افکنى شکست خواهد خورد.
حملات نارواى نویسنده المنار به شیعه
نویسنده تفسیر المنار که بدبینى فوق العاده اى نسبت به (شیعه ) دارد و به همان نسبت از عقائد شیعه و تاریخ آنها بى خبر است ، در ذیل این آیه زیر ماسک دعوت به سوى اتحاد فصلى در زمینه شیعه ، صحبت کرده و آنها را به عنوان تفرقه افکنان و مخالفان اسلام و کسانى که زیر نقاب مذهب به فعالیتهاى سیاسى ضد اسلامى پرداخته اند، متهم ساخته است !، گویا وجود کلمه شیعا در آیه فوق که هیچگونه ارتباطى با مساله تشیع و شیعه ندارد او را به یاد این مطالب واهى انداخته است !.
نوشته‌هاى او بهترین پاسخ براى گفته‌هاى او و روشنترین شاهد براى عدم اطلاع او از تاریخ و عقاید شیعه است زیرا:
۱- میان (شیعه ) و (عبدالله سبا) یهودى که اصل وجود او از نظر تاریخ مشکوک است و به فرض وجود، کمترین نقشى در تاریخ تشیع و کتب شیعه ندارد پیوند قائل شده و از سوى دیگر میان (شیعه )) و (باطنیه ) حتى میان (شیعه ) و (فرقه
ضاله که از بزرگترین دشمنان شیعه هستند ارتباط قائل شده است ، در حالى که مختصر آگاهى از تاریخ شیعه نشان مى دهد که اینها سخنان موهومى بیش نیست بلکه افترا و تهمت است و از همه عجیبترجمعیت غلات را (آنها که در حق على (علیه السلام ) غلو کردند و او را به خدائى پذیرفتند) که در فقه شیعه به عنوان یکى از دسته‌هائى که کفر آنها قطعى و مسلم است ، شناخته شده اند، به شیعه پیوند داده ، و شیعیان را متهم به عبادت اهلبیت و امثال آن کرده است !.
مسلما اگر نویسنده المنار تحت تاثیر پیش داوریهاى نادرست و تعصبهاى ناروا نبود، و به خود اجازه مى داد که عقائد شیعه را از خود شیعه بشنود و در کتابهاى خود شیعه بخواند نه در کتب دشمنان آنها، به خوبى مى دانست که این نسبتها نه تنها دروغ و افترا است ، بلکه مضحک و خنده آور است .
و از همه عجیبتر اینکه پیدایش شیعه را به ایرانیان نسبت داده اند در حالى که قرنها پیش از آنکه ایرانیها شیعه باشند، تشیع در عراق و حجاز و مصر بوده است و مدارک تاریخى گواه زنده این حقیقت است .
۲ - گناه شیعه این است که به گفته قطعى پیامبر (صلى اللّه علیه و آله و سلّم ) که در معتبرترین منابع اهل تسنن نیز آمده است عمل کرده ، آنجا که فرمود: من در میان شما دو چیز گرانمایه به یادگارى مى گذارم که اگر به آنها متمسک شوید هیچگاه گمراه نخواهید شد، کتاب خدا و عترتم گناه شیعه این است که اهلبیت پیامبر (صلى اللّه علیه و آله و سلّم ) را که از همه آگاهتر به مکتب و آئین او بودند، پناهگاه خود در مشکلات اسلامى قرار داده ، و حقایق اسلام را
از آنها گرفته است .
گناه شیعه این است که به پیروى از منطق و عقل ، و الهام از قرآن و سنت ، باب اجتهاد را مفتوح مى داند، و به فقه اسلام تحرک مى بخشد و مى گوید: چه دلیلى دارد که فهم قرآن و سنت را منحصر به چهارنفر کنیم ، و همه مجبور باشند از آنها پیروى کنند؟!
مگر خطابات قرآن و سنت متوجه عموم افراد با ایمان در همه قرون و و اعصار نیست؟
و مگر صحابه پیامبر (صلى اللّه علیه و آله و سلّم ) در فهم قرآن و سنت ، از افراد معینى پیروى مى کردند؟ پس چرا اسلام را در چهار دیوارى خشک و کهنه اى به نام مذاهب چهارگانه حنفى و مالکى و حنبلى و شافعى محصور سازیم ؟!
گناه شیعه این است که مى گوید یاران پیامبر اسلام (صلى اللّه علیه و آله و سلّم ) مانند همه افراد دیگر باید با مقیاس ایمان و عملشان مورد بررسى قرار گیرند، آنها که عملشان مطابق کتاب و سنت است خوب ، و آنها که در عصر پیامبر (صلى اللّه علیه و آله و سلّم ) و یا بعد از او بر خلاف کتاب و سنت عمل کردند، باید طرد شوند، و نام صحابه بودن نباید سپرى براى جنایتکاران شود و افرادى مانند معاویه که تمام ضوابط اسلامى را زیر پا گذاشت و بر امام وقت ، که همه امت اسلامى امامت او را، حد اقل ، در آن زمان قبول دارند، خروج کرد، و آنهمه خونهاى بیگناهان را ریخت نباید تقدیس شوند، همچنین پاره اى از صحابه جیره خوار که جزء دار و دسته او بودند.
آرى شیعه چنین گناهانى را دارد و به آن معترف است ، ولى آیا هیچ جمعیتى را مظلومتر از شیعه سراغ دارید که نقطه‌هاى درخشان و افتخار زندگى و تاریخ او را نقطه‌هاى ضعف نشان دهند؟ و یکدنیا دروغ و تهمت به او ببندند و حتى اجازه ندهند عقائد صحیح خود را در میان عموم مسلمانان پخش کند، بلکه همیشه عقائد او را از دشمنان او بگیرند نه از خود او؟!
آیا اگر جمعیتى به دستور پیامبرش عمل کند در حالى که دیگران عمل نکنند تفرقه انداز و نفاق افکن محسوب مى شود؟ آیا اینها را باید از راهى که مى روند باز داشت تا اتحاد برقرار شود؟ یا آنها را که از بى راهه مى روند؟!
۳ - تاریخ علوم اسلامى نشان مى دهد که در غالب این علوم شیعه پیشقدم بودند تا آنجا که شیعه را به عنوان پدید آورندگان علوم اسلام مى شناسد.
کتابهائى که علماى شیعه در رشته تفسیر و تاریخ و حدیث و فقه و اصول و رجال و فلسفه اسلامى نوشته اند چیزى نیست که بتوان آنها را پنهان ساخت و در تمام کتابخانه‌هاى آزاد موجود است (البته به استثناى اکثر کتابخانه‌هاى اهل تسنن که معمولا اجازه ورود این کتابها را به کتابخانه‌هاى خود نمى دهند در حالى که ما اجازه ورود کتابهاى آنها را از قرنها قبل به کتابخانه‌هاى خود داده ایم !) و گواه زنده این مدعا است .
آیا آنها که اینهمه کتاب براى عظمت اسلام و پیشبرد تعلیمات اسلام نوشته اند، دشمنان اسلام بودند؟
آیا دشمنى سراغ دارید که اینهمه دوستى و محبت کند؟
آیا کسى جز یک عاشق مخلص نسبت به قرآن و پیامبر (صلى اللّه علیه و آله و سلّم ) مى تواند منشا اینهمه خدمت باشد؟
در پایان سخن باید بگوئیم اگر مى خواهید نفاق و تفرقه برچیده شود بیائید بجاى تهمت به یکدیگر، همدیگر را آنچنانکه هستیم بشناسیم ، زیرا این گونه نسبتهاى ناروا نه تنها به وحدت اسلام کمک نمى کند، بلکه ضربه محکمى بر
پایه‌هاى وحدت اسلامى مى زند.
پاداش بیشتر، مجازات کمتر
در آیه بعد، اشاره به رحمت و پاداش وسیع خداوند که در انتظار افراد نیکوکار است ، کرده و تهدیدهاى آیه گذشته را با این تشویقها تکمیل مى کند و مى گوید: هر کسى کار نیکى انجام داد، ده برابر به او پاداش داده مى شود (و من جاء بالحسنة فله عشر امثالها)
و هر کس کار بدى انجام دهد جز به همان مقدار، کیفر داده نمى شود (و من جاء بالسیئة فلا یجزى الا مثلها)
و براى تاکید این جمله را نیز اضافه مى کند که به آنها هیچگونه ستمى نخواهد شد و تنها به مقدار عملشان کیفر مى بینند (و هم لا یظلمون ).
در اینکه منظور از حسنة و سیئة در آیه فوق چیست ؟ و آیا خصوص توحید و شرک است ، یا معنى وسیعتر دارند؟ میان مفسران گفتگو است ، ولى ظاهر آیه هر گونه کار نیک و فکر نیک و عقیده نیک و یا بد را شامل مى شود، زیرا هیچگونه دلیلى بر محدود کردن معنى حسنة و سیئة نیست .
نکته‌ها
در اینجا به چند نکته باید توجه کرد:
۱- منظور از جاء به آنچنانکه از مفهوم جمله ، استفاده مى شود، آن است که کار نیک یا بد را همراه خود بیاورد، یعنى به هنگام ورود در دادگاه عدل الهى ، انسان نمى تواند دست خالى و تنها باشد، یا عقیده و عمل نیکى با خود دارد و یا عقیده و اعمال سوئى ، اینها همواره با او هستند و از او جدا نمى شوند و در زندگانى ابدى ، قرین و همدم او خواهند بود.
در آیات دیگر قرآن نیز این تعبیر به همین معنى به کار رفته است ، در آیه
33 سوره ق ، مى خوانیم من خشى الرحمان بالغیب و جاء بقلب منیب . بهشت براى آنها است که خدا را از طریق ایمان به غیب بشناسند و از او بترسند، و قلب توبه کار و مملو از احساس مسئولیت با خود در عرصه محشر بیاورند.
۲- در آیه فوق مى خوانیم ، پاداش حسنه ده برابر است ، در حالى که در بعضى دیگر از آیات قرآن تنها به عنوان اضعافا کثیره (چندین برابر) اکتفا شده (مانند آیه 245 سوره بقره ) و در بعضى دیگر از آیات ، پاداش پاره اى از اعمال مانند انفاق را به هفتصد برابر بلکه بیشتر مى رساند، (آیه 261 سوره بقره ) و در بعضى دیگر اجر و پاداش بیحساب ذکر کرده و مى گوید: انما یوفى الصابرون اجرهم بغیر حساب آنها که استقامت بورزند پاداشى بى حساب خواهند داشت (زمر آیه 10).
روشن است که این آیات هیچگونه اختلافى با هم ندارند، در حقیقت حداقل پاداشى که به نیکوکاران داده مى شود، ده برابر است و همینطور به نسبت اهمیت عمل ، و درجه اخلاص آن و کوششها و تلاشهائى که در راه آن انجام شده است ، بیشتر مى شود، تا به جائى که هر حد و مرزى را درهم مى شکند و جز خدا حد آن را نمى داند.
مثلا انفاق که فوق العاده در اسلام اهمیت دارد پاداشش از حد معمول پاداش عمل نیک که ده برابر است ، فراتر رفته و به اضعاف کثیره یا هفتصد برابر و بیشتر رسیده است و در مورد استقامت که ریشه تمام موفقیتها و سعادتها و خوشبختیها است و هیچ عقیده و عمل نیکى بدون آن پا بر جا نخواهد بود، پاداش بى حساب ذکر شده است .
از اینجا روشن مى شود که اگر در روایات ، پاداشهائى بیش از ده برابر براى بعضى از اعمال نیک ذکر شده نیز هیچگونه منافاتى با آیه فوق ندارد.
و همچنین اگر در آیه 84 سوره قصص مى خوانیم من جاء بالحسنة فله خیر منها
کسى که عمل نیکى انجام دهد پاداشى بهتر از این خواهد داشت مخالفتى با آیه فوق ندارد تا احتمال نسخ در آن برود، زیرا بهتر بودن معنى وسیعى دارد که با ده برابر کاملا سازگار است .
۳- ممکن است بعضى تصور کنند که واجب شدن شصت روز به عنوان کفاره در مقابل خوردن یک روز روزه ماه مبارک رمضان ، و مجازاتهاى دیگرى در دنیا و آخرت از این قبیل با آیه فوق که مى گوید: در برابر کار بد فقط به اندازه آن کیفر داده خواهد شد سازگار نیست .
ولى با توجه به یک نکته پاسخ این ایراد نیز روشن مى شود و آن اینکه :
منظور از مساوات میان گناه و کیفر. مساوات عددى نیست ، بلکه کیفیت عمل را نیز باید در نظر گرفت خوردن یک روز روزه ماه رمضان با آنهمه اهمیتى که دارد مجازاتش تنها یک روز کفاره نیست بلکه باید آنقدر روزه بگیرد که به اندازه احترام آن یک روز ماه مبارک بشود. به همین دلیل در بعضى از روایات مى خوانیم که کیفر گناهان در ماه رمضان بیش از سایر ایام است همانطور که پاداش ‍ اعمال نیک در آن ایام بیشتر است تا آنجا که مثلا یک ختم قرآن در این ماه برابر با هفتاد ختم قرآن در ماههاى دیگر است .
۴ - نکته جالب دیگر اینکه : آیه فوق نهایت لطف و مرحمت پروردگار را در مورد انسان مجسم مى کند، چه کسى را سراغ دارید که تمام ابزار کار را در اختیار انسان بگذارد، و همه گونه آگاهى نیز به او بدهد، رهبران معصومى براى هدایت و راهنمائى او بفرستد، تا با استفاده از نیروى خداداد و رهبرى فرستادگانش کار نیکى انجام دهد، و تازه در برابر کار او ده برابر پاداش تعیین نماید، اما براى لغزشها و خطاهایش تنها یک جرم قائل شود تازه راه عذر خواهى و توبه و رسیدن به عفو و بخشش را نیز به روى او بگشاید.
ابوذر مى گوید: صادق مصدق (یعنى پیامبر) فرمود:‌‌ان‌الله تعالى
قال الحسنة عشرا و ازید و السیئة واحدة او اغفر فالویل لمن غلبت آحاده اعشاره : خداوند مى فرماید: کارهاى نیک و حسنات را ده برابر پاداش مى دهم یا بیشتر، و سیئات را تنها یک برابر کیفر مى دهم و یا مى بخشم ، واى به حال آن کس که آحادش بر عشراتش پیشى گیرد (یعنى گناهانش از طاعاتش افزون شود).

حضرت آیت الله امام خامنه‌ای:

هرکَس که در راه روشنگری فکر مردم، تلاشی بکند، از انحرافی جلوگیری نماید و مانع سوءفهمی‌شود، از آن‌جا که در مقابله با دشمن است، تلاشش جهاد نامیده میشود ...

اگر کسانی برای حفظ جانشان، راه خدا را ترک کنند و آن‌جا که باید حق بگویند، نگویند، چون جانشان به خطر میافتد، یا برای مقامشان یا برای شغلشان یا برای پولشان یا محبّت به اولاد، خانواده و نزدیکان و دوستانشان، راه خدا را رها کنند، آن وقت حسین‌بن‌علیها به مسلخ کربلا خواهند رفت و به قتلگاه کشیده خواهند شد.

اگر خواص امری را که تشخیص دادند به موقع و بدون فوت وقت عمل کنند، تاریخ نجات پیدا میکند و دیگر حسین‌بن‌علیها به کربلاها کشانده نمیشوند ...

اگر خواص بد فهمیدند، دیر فهمیدند، فهمیدند اما با هم اختلاف کردند؛ کربلاها در تاریخ تکرار خواهد شد ...

بخشی از وصیت‌نامه شهید حاج قاسم سلیمانی:

جمهوری اسلامی، مرکز اسلام و تشیّع است

خواهران و برادران مجاهدم در این عالم،‌‌‌‌ای کسانی که سر‌های خود را برای خداوند عاریه داده‌اید و جان‌ها را بر کف دست گرفته و در بازار عشقبازی به سوق فروش آمده‌اید، عنایت کنید: جمهوری اسلامی، مرکز اسلام و تشیّع است.

امروز قرارگاه حسین بن علی، ایران است

امروز قرارگاه حسین بن علی، ایران است. بدانید جمهوری اسلامی‌حرم است و این حرم اگر ماند، دیگر حرم‌ها می‌مانند. اگر دشمن، این حرم را از بین برد، حرمی‌باقی نمی‌ماند، نه حرم ابراهیمی‌و نه حرم محمّدی (ص).

برای نجات اسلام خیمه ولایت را رها نکنید

برادران و خواهرانم! جهان اسلام پیوسته نیازمند رهبری است؛ رهبری متصل و منصوب شرعی و فقهی به معصوم. خوب می‌دانید منزّه‌ترین عالِم دین که جهان را تکان داد و اسلام را احیا کرد، یعنی خمینی بزرگ و پاک ما، ولایت فقیه را تنها نسخه نجاتبخش این امت قرار داد؛ لذا چه شما که به عنوان شیعه به آن اعتقاد دینی دارید و چه شما که به عنوان سنّی اعتقاد عقلی دارید، بدانید [باید] به دور از هرگونه اختلاف، برای نجات اسلام خیمه ولایت را رها نکنید. خیمه، خیمه‌ی رسول‌الله است. اساس دشمنی جهان با جمهوری اسلامی، آتش زدن و ویران کردن این خیمه است. دور آن بچرخید. والله والله والله این خیمه اگر آسیب دید، بیت‌الله‌الحرام و مدینه حرم رسول‌الله و نجف، کربلا، کاظمین، سامرا و مشهد باقی نمیماند؛ قرآن آسیب می‌بیند.

خطاب به برادران و خواهران ایرانی

خامنه‌ای عزیز را عزیزِ جان خود بدانید

برادران و خواهران عزیز ایرانی من، مردم پر افتخار و سربلند که جان من و امثال من، هزاران بار فدای شما باد، کما اینکه شما صد‌ها هزار جان را فدای اسلام و ایران کردید؛ از اصول مراقبت کنید. اصول یعنی ولیّ‌فقیه، خصوصاً این حکیم، مظلوم، وارسته در دین، فقه، عرفان، معرفت؛ خامنه‌ای عزیز را عزیزِ جان خود بدانید. حرمت او را حرمتِ مقدسات بدانید.

برادران و خواهران، پدران و مادران، عزیزان من!

جمهوری اسلامی، امروز سربلندترین دوره خود را طی می‌کند. بدانید مهم نیست که دشمن چه نگاهی به شما دارد. دشمن به پیامبر شما چه نگاهی داشت و [دشمنان]چگونه با پیامبر خدا و اولادش عمل کردند، چه اتهاماتی به او زدند، چگونه با فرزند

Why did Imam Hussain (pbuh) rise up? Did Imam Hussain (pbuh) rise up only for opposing a corrupt ruler like Yazid? Which were the true dimensions of Imam Hussain's movement?

Imam Khamenei:

Imam Hussain's (pbuh) movement is, indeed, perceivable via two perspectives—both of which are acceptable. Nonetheless, when put together, the two views show the extensive dimensions of this movement. One perspective involves the appearance of Imam Hussain’s action, which is a movement against a corrupt, deviated, suppressive and oppressive regime: Yazid’s Regime. But, at the heart of his action, there is a more important movement that the second perspective will lead to the move against ignorance and humiliation of mankind. In fact, even though Imam Hussain (pbuh) fights against Yazid, his extensive historical fight is not against the short-living and insignificant Yazid. Rather, his main fight is against mankind’s ignorance, abasement, deviation and humiliation. Indeed, Imam Hussain (pbuh) fights against such vices.

January 16, 1994

Imam Khamenei:

An ideal government was formed by Islam. If we want to summarize the story of Imam Hussain (pbuh) in a few lines, we can say: humanity suffers from ignorance, oppression and discrimination. The big rulings of the world, the empires of the Caesars and Kisras of the time—either in ancient Persia or the Roman Empire—were regimes of extravagance, non-democratic establishments, ruling through illogical coercion, ignorance and corruption. Smaller establishments--like those in the Arabian Peninsula-- were even worse than them; overall, ignorance reigned over the world. Meanwhile, the light of Islam managed to enlighten, first, the Arabian Peninsula, and then gradually grow to encompass all the world, by the Messenger of God, via Divine assistance, as well as massive and strenuous popular resistance. At the time the Prophet dies, this government was a stable establishment that could be a model for all humans throughout history. Had that establishment continued in the same direction, the history would undoubtedly change. That is, what is supposed to happen centuries later-- at the time of Imam Mahdi’s (pbuh) reappearance in the current situation—would have happened at that time. A world replete with justice, purity, truthfulness, and kindness is the world of the era of Imam Mahdi (pbuh); it is the time when the authentic life of humanity begins. The Authentic life of mankind in this world begins after the reappearance of the Imam of the Time (may God hasten his return), and humanity will achieve great development then. Thus, had the persistence of Prophet Muhammad’s establishment been made possible, and had it been formed during the early years, the history of mankind would have changed, and the final destiny of human life would have unfolded much earlier. However, this was not realized for various reasons ...

The Authentic life of mankind in this world begins after the reappearance of the Imam of the Time (may God hasten his return), and humanity will achieve great development then ...

January 16, 1994

Imam Khamenei:

The main feature of Prophet Muhammad’s establishment was that instead of relying on oppression, it relied on justice. Instead of relying on paganism and division of human thought, it relied on monotheism and focused on worshipping God. Instead of ignorance, it relied on knowledge and wisdom. Instead of promoting revengeful behavior among the people, it relied on kindness, compassion, the establishment of friendly relations, and tolerance: a neat government both in apparent aspects and innermost aspects. One who grows under such a government becomes pious, chaste, knowledgeable, insightful, active, enthusiastic, dynamic, and moves on the path toward perfection. Fifty years after [the passing away of the prophet], everything changed. The name of Islam remained; the word ‘Islam’ persisted; however, in reality, true Islam was no longer practiced. Instead of the government of justice, a government of oppression was established again. Instead of fraternity and equality, discrimination, division and separation reigned. Instead of wisdom, ignorance ruled. During this period of fifty years, as we move on, we can find hundreds of examples of such cases; researchers are recommended to elaborate on them for the young and investigative minds.

Imamate was transformed into the kingdom! The essence of Imamate is contradictory to the essence of the kingdom. These two are contradictory. Imamate is moral and spiritual leadership and compassionate and belief-related bonds with the people. Whereas, a kingdom is ruling via coercion, power and deluding, without any spiritual, compassion and belief-related bonds. The two are binary opposites. Imamate is a movement among the ummah, for the ummah and in favor of rightfulness. A kingdom is an authoritarian dominance against the interests of the people, only serving particular classes of society, to fulfill the ruling group’s hoarding wealth and pleasing lust. What we see at the time of Imam Hussain’s uprising is the second case, not the first one. That is, Yazid who was in power then, had no relations with the people; he had no knowledge, no piety, no chastity, no experience of jihad for the cause of God, and no belief in Islamic spirituality; his behavior was not a behavior of a believer in Islam, his words were not the words of a wise man. He was in no way similar to Prophet Muhammad (pbuh). In this situation, an opportunity arose for a person like Imam Hussain (pbuh) -- the Imam who was apt for succeeding the Prophet (pbuh)--and he rose up.

Looking at the surface of the events, this uprising was against the corrupt and unpopular regime of Yazid. However, beneath the surface, it is an uprising for the sake of Islamic values, understanding, faith, and dignity. It is for the people to be set free from corruption, subordination, lowliness, and ignorance. It was for this reason that when Imam Hussain (pbuh) left Medina, in a message to his brother Muhammad Ibn Hanafiah, and in reality a message to the history, he wrote: I am not rising out of selfishness, or lust for power, nor to cause mayhem or pain. I rise looking for the correction in my grandfather's ummah. I see that things have changed in the society that the prophet left. It is going towards the wrong direction, towards corruption. It is against the direction coveted by Islam and the prophet had preached. I rise to fight against these [vices].

Imam Hussain’s fight had two dimensions and can have two different fallouts. Nonetheless, both outcomes are good. One result was that Imam Hussain (pbuh) could defeat Yazid’s government and take power away from those who oppressed the people, and devastated the fate of the people, so he could arrange things in an appropriate way. If this had happened, the route of history would have revolved. Another dimension was that, if Imam Hussain (pbuh) could not, for whatever reason, achieve political and military victory, then he would—not by words, but rather by blood, by resisting oppression, by a language that history will never forget—make his narrative flow like a perpetual and non-interruptible stream in history; this is what Imam Hussain (pbuh) did.

Of course, for those who claimed to be believers, if they had acted differently than what they did to Imam Hussain (pbuh), the first case would have happened and Imam Hussain (pbuh) could have reformed the world and the hereafter at that time! But the people did not cooperate. The discussion about why and how the people did not act appropriately, is a very long and exhausting discussion, which I elaborated to some extent some years ago under the title “the common people and the elite”-- it included who failed to act properly, who was responsible for this behavior, how they behaved, and in which areas-- I am not going to mention this discussion now.

So, as a result of some people’s carelessness, the first goal was not achieved; but the second goal was accomplished. This is something that no power can take away from Imam Hussain (pbuh). The power of going to the battlefield of martyrdom; sacrificing oneself and loved ones, the grand sacrifice that is so great that no matter how big the enemy is, it will appear small and unimportant before it. This bright sun will continue to emanate more light in the Muslim world day after day till his light encompasses the whole humanity.

January 16, 1994

Imam Khamenei:

Today, Imam Hussain (pbuh) is known to the world more than he was five centuries, or ten centuries ago. Today the situation is such that when impartial intellectuals learn about the history of Islam, and the story of Imam Hussain (pbuh), they feel humble. Even for those who do not know anything about Islam, yet recognize the notions of freedom, justice, dignity, elevation, and lofty human values, Imam Hussain (pbuh) is an invaluable role model in seeking liberty and justice, in rising up against vices and evils as well as in fighting ignorance and humiliation of mankind ...

April 14, 2000

Imam Khamenei:

Today, wherever humanity has undergone some defeat, either political, military or economic, the roots of it can be traced to ignorance or abasement. That is, either they do not have the knowledge and necessary understanding, or they understand but have sold themselves cheap. They have bought into abasement and have submitted to viciousness. Imam Sajjad (pbuh) and Imam Ali (pbuh) have been narrated to have said: “Oh! Man, if your essence and existence is to be sold, it has only one price, which is the divine heaven. If you sell it to anything cheaper than heaven, you are at loss.” Even if you are offered the whole world in exchange for accepting abasement and viciousness, it is not fitting. All those who in different places around the world have surrendered to coercion and money of the wealthy and powerful, and have accepted this abasement, --whatever position they are in scholar, politician, political or social activist or intellectual-- they have failed to know their value and have sold themselves cheap. Many politicians of the world have sold themselves.

Dignity is not simply represented by holding high positions like a king or a boss. Sometimes a person is sitting on a throne, bullying a thousand people boastfully. Meanwhile, he is under the coercion of another power or center. He might be a captive of his own desires and lust; but today's political captives will not reach the latter, because they are captives of major powers.

April 14, 2000

Imam Khamenei:

The prophets save humans; so, in the Quran, one important purpose of prophethood is said to be establishing justice. “We sent Our Messengers with clear evidence (to support their truthfulness), and sent with them the Book and the Balance so that people would maintain justice {Quran; 57:25}.” In fact, the divine books and the prophets were sent in order for justice to be established in societies; that is, to remove the symbols of oppression, coercion, and corruption. The movement of Imam Hussain (pbuh) was a movement of such nature. He said: “I rose up to reform the Muslim community of my grandfather [Prophet Muhammad (pbuh)].” (Bihar Al-Anvar: V.44, P. 329) He also said: “Whoever observes a ruler legalize what God has made unlawful, violating the covenant of God, opposing the Sunnah of the Messenger of God, and treating the creatures of God sinfully and oppressively; he who does not oppose him with his speech and action, God has a right to bring him to the same fate as that of the tyrant.” (Bihar al-Anwar, v. 44, p. 381) That is if a person sees where corruption and oppression emerge from, yet they do not do anything to oppose the source of corruption and oppression, for God the Exalted, they have the same fate as the corrupt oppressor. He said that he did not rise up for the cause of wickedness, amusement, corruption or oppression. The people of Iraq invited Imam Hussain (pbuh) to rule over them, and Imam Hussain (pbuh) answered their request. So, it is not that Imam Hussain (pbuh) did not think of creating a government; he was indeed thinking of overturning tyrannical powers; either by taking the government away from them or by martyrdom ...

Imam Khamenei:

Imam Hussain (pbuh) knew what would his silence, his endorsement and his indifference would do to Islam if he did not take any action. When a power takes all the capacities of a community or some communities under control, and acts tyrannically, if the men of truth do not oppose him, refuting his actions, they have actually endorsed his actions. That is, oppression is endorsed by the men of truth, without them really wanting it. This was a sin committed by the elites from among the Bani-Hashem, and the children of the prominent figures of the early years of Islam. Imam Hussain, however, would not tolerate it, and hence he rose up. It is narrated that after Imam Sajjad (pbuh) returned to Medina from Karbala-- maybe ten or eleven months passed between the time this caravan left Medina and returned-- a person visited him and said: "Oh! Son of the Messenger of Allah, you see, you went and what happened?” He was right; the caravan had left while Imam Hussain (pbuh), the bright sun of Ahlulbait, so much loved by the Messenger of Allah, was among them, leading them. The daughter of Imam Ali (pbuh) had left while she was dignified and honored. The children of Imam Ali (pbuh) --Abbas and others-- the children of Imam Hassan (pbuh), prominent and talented youth of Bani Hashem had all left with this caravan. But the caravan returned with only one man -- Imam Sajjad (pbuh), with the women gone through sufferings of captivity and the loss of their loved ones. Imam Hussain (pbuh), Ali Akbar (pbuh), and even the baby were now gone. Imam Sajjad (pbuh) answered that man, stating: "Imagine what would have happened if we had not gone."

Yes! If they had not gone, their bodies might have survived, but the truth would have died. The soul would have died out. Consciences would have been shattered. Logic and reason would have been condemned throughout history, and even the name of Islam would not have remained ...

*****************

Why did Imam Hussain (pbuh) take his family to Karbala? Why didn't he refuse to fight with several thousand-fighter army of Yazid, in spite of having only 72 people in his army? Why didn't he try other methods?

Imam Hussain (pbuh) brought his dear ones to the desert of Karbala in order to clarify the truth. He knew what was going to happen, yet he brought Zeinab, his wives, his children, and his brothers with him. Like the day of Mubahila, it was again a matter of clarifying the truth and promoting Islam in the real sense of the word. That shows the importance of promoting Islam. "If someone comes across a ruthless sultan who mixes up halal with haraam and breaks his promise to God, they deserve living with the sultan in the hereafter." That is to say, when someone sees such a person, they should clarify the truth through their words and actions just as Imam Hussain (pbuh) did - and he paid the price for it. Imam Hussain brought his dear ones and his wives and children to Karbala in order to clarify the truth.

Dec 13, 2009

Imam Khamenei:

One can clearly notice in his lifestyle all the methods that could have been used by a descendant of the Holy Prophet (pbuh) to preserve the great legacy of Islam which has been passed down by the Holy Prophet (pbuh) and his father as well as their genuine followers. We can clearly see everything in the lifestyle of the Lord of the Martyrs (pbuh) - everything ranging from clarification to forewarning, to promotion of Islam, to provoking the conscience of prominent figures of his time during a sermon in Mina. All these things are tangible in the lifestyle of the Lord of the Martyrs (pbuh). Later on, he stood up against a great deviation and laid down his life. Imam Hussain (pbuh) was aware of the consequences of his movement. He was an infallible Imam. Infallible Imams' extensive knowledge and insight are beyond our heads. Imam Hussain (pbuh) revolted to set a role model and he refused to surrender. He asked people to help him and when a group of people from Kufa expressed their willingness to accompany him on this path, Imam Hussain (pbuh) accepted their offer and moved towards Kufa and he did not give up in the middle of the way. Imam Hussain (pbuh) stood up against the deviated current of his time, which was extremely dangerous. And this became a lesson and Imam Hussain (pbuh) himself makes the same point. That is to say, he backed up his action with the order of Islam. He said that his duty was what he was doing. He said that he had to express his opposition, no matter what the consequences were. He said, "It is good if my destiny is a victory and if my destiny is martyrdom, so much the better." This was how Imam Hussain (pbuh) acted.

This was a perfect instance of self-sacrifice and it safeguarded Islam. This move preserved Islam. This move institutionalized values in society. If Imam Hussain (pbuh) had not accepted this danger, if he had not made a move, if he had not taken action, if his blood had not been shed, if those great tragedies had not happened to the shrine of the Holy Prophet (pbuh), to Imam Ali's (pbuh) daughter and to the Holy Prophet's (pbuh) descendants, this event would not have gone down in history. The event that could have prevented that great deviation had to shock people and history as much as the deviation did. This shows Imam Hussain's (pbuh) self-sacrifice.

Of course, this is easier said than done. What Imam Hussain (pbuh) did was an extraordinary feat. That is to say, the dimensions of his action are far more than what we estimate. We usually ignore aspects and details. Once I spoke about Imam Hussain's (pbuh) patience. His patience was not limited to enduring thirst or seeing his companions being killed. These things are relatively easy to tolerate. The kind of patience that is difficult to practice is to listen to influential, aware and respectable people who keep creating doubts and telling you that what you are doing is dangerous and wrong. Who did those things? People like Abdullah Ja'far, Abdullah Zubair and Abdullah Abbas. These prominent figures of that time were constantly telling Imam Hussain (pbuh) not to do what he was doing. If it were somebody else, somebody who did not have that determination and stable character, he would have thought, "Well, I did my duty. These people are talking like this and the world is acting like that, so I should just say what I am supposed to say and do nothing else." A person who decides to stand up against such statements, such temptations, such doubts and such efforts to bend sharia and is not dissuaded from continuing his path - such a person is the one who can give rise to such a great transformation. In this regard, our magnanimous Imam (r.a.) was similar to the Lord of the Martyrs. I explained this in another meeting and I do not want to go into the details now. This was how Imam Hussain (pbuh) acted as a guardian.

Jul 4, 2011

Imam Khamenei:

Zeinab al-Kubra (pbuh) is a prominent role model in history and shows the significance of a woman's presence in one of the most important events in human history. Blood gained a victory over the sword on the day of Ashura, and Zeinab al-Kubra (pbuh) was the cause of that victory. This was because the forces of righteousness were apparently defeated in a military fight in Karbala, but Zeinab al-Kubra's (pbuh) behavior was the factor that turned this apparent defeat into a permanent and decisive victory. That victory was due to the role she played after the day of Ashura. That is a very important point. The event proved that women are not on the periphery of history. It proved that women can have a central role in important historical events. This has been pointed out in several places in the Holy Quran as well. But Zeinab al-Kubra (pbuh) is a recent example and does not belong to ancient times. The story of her life is a tangible event. She played a brilliant role, making the enemies - who had apparently won the battle and slain all their opponents - feel humiliated in their own base. She branded them with permanent disgrace and turned their victory into a defeat. That was what Zeinab al-Kubra (pbuh) did. She proved that it is possible to turn feminine morality and modesty into glory and a great jihad …
Apr 21, 2010

Imam Khamenei:

https://english.khamenei.ir/news/5942/Who-is-Imam-Hussain-Why-did-he-launch-an-uprisingThe greatness of Zeinab al-Kubra's (pbuh) movement is reflected in what is left of her sermons. Her unforgettable sermon in Kufa's marketplace was not just an ordinary speech. It was not just the personal opinion of an important figure. Her sermon was a great and beautifully-worded analysis of the Islamic community's situation at that time. The sermon included the most profound Islamic concepts. See how strong her character was. Her brother - her Imam and leader - had been martyred in a desert just two days before. Her dear ones, her children, and many other people had been martyred. She and tens of other women and children were taken captive on the same day. They were paraded in different places. Some of the people who were watching them were cheerful and some were shedding tears. Zeinab (pbuh) suddenly started her great mission in that critical situation. She spoke like her father did when he was delivering a sermon to his people during his rule. She spoke with the same tone. She spoke using the same kind of words Imam Ali (pbuh) would use. She was equally eloquent and precise, and her words were equally profound. "O plotters and pretenders, maybe you yourselves were starting to believe that you were following Islam and the Holy Prophet's household, but you failed miserably in the test. You proved to be blind in the fitna. Do you pledge allegiance while you are planning a conspiracy? You can do nothing but engage in shifting allegiance, hypocrisy, flattery, self-humiliation, and empty talk. Your actions were different from your words. You became arrogant and wrongly thought that you were pious. You thought you were still revolutionary. You thought you were still the followers of the Commander of the Faithful. But the truth was something else. You were not able to deal with the fitna. You were not able to save yourselves. You ruined everything you had done before. Because of your lack of insight, your lack of knowledge of the situation, and your inability to distinguish right from wrong, you ruined everything you had built. You look faithful and you keep making revolutionary claims, but deep down you are empty and weak." Zeinab al-Kubra (pbuh) presented a deep analysis of her society's pathologies ...

Apr 21, 2010

Imam Khamenei:

Zeinab al-Kubra (pbuh) presented a deep analysis of her society's pathologies.

She spoke firmly and eloquently in that difficult situation. It was not the case that she had an audience sitting in front of her and listening in silence. She was not speaking the way an orator would speak to his audience. She was surrounded by the enemies, holding spears in their hands. There were also some ordinary people there - the same people who gave up Moslem to Ibn Ziad, the same people who wrote letters to Imam Hussain and then broke their allegiance to him, the same people who hid in their homes exactly when they were supposed to stand up to Ibn Ziad. Among the people there were also some individuals who were not courageous enough to do what they should have done, and they were watching Imam Ali's daughter in tears on that day. Zeinab al-Kubra (pbuh) was faced with this motley and unreliable crowd, yet she spoke in a firm manner. She was an exemplary woman in history. Such women cannot be considered weak. This faithful feminine nature may reveal itself in difficult conditions. She is a role model for all great men and women in the world. She presented a deep analysis of the problems facing the revolution started by the Holy Prophet (pbuh) and Imam Ali (pbuh). She said, "You could not distinguish between right and wrong in the fitna. You were unable to fulfill your duty. As a result, they severed the head of the Holy Prophet's (pbuh) grandson and put it on a spear." We can understand the greatness of her character when we consider such things.

Apr 21, 2010

Imam Khamenei:

Zeinab (pbuh) played an unparalleled role on the way to Karbala with Imam Hussain (pbuh), on the day of Ashura with all those hardships, and after Imam Hussain (pbuh) had been martyred. It is impossible to find a similar figure in history. Later on, numerous events took place - during her captivity, in Kufa, and in Sham. Because of these great selfless efforts, Zeinab al-Kubra (pbuh) gained a prominent position before Allah the Exalted, and this is something that we cannot describe …

Feb 8, 2010

Imam Khamenei:

In the Holy Quran Allah, the Exalted mentions the names of two women as perfect examples of faith. God also mentions the names of two women as examples of infidelity. "Allah sets forth, for an example to the unbelievers, the wife of Noah and the wife of Lut: They were (respectively) under two of our righteous servants" [The Holy Quran, 66: 10]. These two women exemplify infidelity. That is to say, Allah the Exalted, mentions women, not men, as examples of both infidelity and faith. "And Allah sets forth, as an example to those who believe the wife of Pharaoh" [The Holy Quran, 66: 11]. He mentions the wife of Pharaoh and Mary as two perfect examples of faith. "And Mary the daughter of Imran" [The Holy Quran, 66: 12].

A brief comparison between Zeinab al-Kubra (pbuh) and the wife of Pharaoh would show the greatness of Zeinab al-Kubra's (pbuh) position. In the Holy Quran, the wife of Pharaoh has been recognized as an example of faith for both men and women until the end of time. But just compare the wife of Pharaoh - who had faith in Moses' prophethood and had been enchanted by his guidance - with Zeinab al-Kubra. When she was tortured by Pharaoh - according to narrations and historical texts, she passed away due to the torture she suffered - she was frustrated by the physical pain. She said, "O my Lord, build for me, in nearness to You, a mansion in the Garden, and save me from Pharaoh and his doings." [The Holy Quran, 66: 11] In fact, she was praying for her death: "And save me from Pharaoh and his doings." This was while her problem was only the physical torture. Unlike Zeinab al-Kubra, she had not suffered the loss of several brothers, two children, and many of her relatives and nephews. She had not watched her dear ones go to the battlefield where they were supposed to be killed. Asiah - the wife of Pharaoh - did not have to endure the psychological pains that Zeinab al-Kubra went through.

On the day of Ashura, Zeinab al-Kubra watched many of her dear ones go to the battlefield to get martyred. She watched Hussain ibn Ali (pbuh), Abbas, Ali Akbar, Qasem, her children, and other dear ones go to the battlefield. After they were martyred, she went through all those pains: The invasion of the enemy, disrespect, and the responsibility to take care of the surviving children and women. Is it possible to compare the enormity of this tragedy with physical pain? But when she was faced with these difficulties, Zeinab al-Kubra did not tell God to save her. She did not say, "O my Lord, save me." On the day of Ashura, she said, "O God, accept this from us." While the shredded body of her brother lay in front of her eyes, tells God, "O God, accept this sacrifice from us." When she was asked to describe what she had seen, she replied, "I did not see anything but beauty." All those tragedies were beautiful to Zeinab al-Kubra because they were from and for God - because they were supposed to promote the word of God. See how different this position, this patience, and this love of justice and truth are compared to Asiah's position described in the Holy Quran. This shows the greatness of Zeinab's position …

Imam Khamenei:

On the day of Ashura, Zeinab al-Kubra watched many of her dear ones go to the battlefield to get martyred. She watched Hussain ibn Ali (pbuh), Abbas, Ali Akbar, Qasem, her children, and other dear ones go to the battlefield. After they were martyred, she went through all those pains: The invasion of the enemy, disrespect, and the responsibility to take care of the surviving children and women. Is it possible to compare the enormity of this tragedy with physical pain? But when she was faced with these difficulties, Zeinab al-Kubra did not tell God to save her. She did not say, "O my Lord, save me." On the day of Ashura, she said, "O God, accept this from us."

When she was asked to describe what she had seen, she replied, "I did not see anything but beauty." All those tragedies were beautiful to Zeinab al-Kubra because they were from and for God - because they were supposed to promote the word of God. See how different this position, this patience, and this love of justice and truth are compared to Asiah's position described in the Holy Quran. This shows the greatness of Zeinab's position.

This is the nature of actions that are carried out for the sake of God. Therefore, Zeinab's actions are currently a model, and her name and achievements will remain until the end of time. The permanence of Islam and the divine path and continuation of this path by God's servants are based on what Hussain ibn Ali (pbuh) and Zeinab al-Kubra (pbuh) did. That is to say, as a result of the great patience, resistance, and endurance of hardships, you see that religious values have gained a lot of ground in the modern world. All these human values, which are consistent with human nature in different schools of thought, are rooted in religious values. These values have been promoted by religion. That is the nature of efforts for a divine cause ...

Imam Khamenei:

What is the use of crying and mourning the martyrdom of Imam Hussain (pbuh) after 1400 years?

"Why are you disseminating sadness, crying and tears among people?" They complain. This is not sadness and tears for the sake of sadness and tears. This is for the sake of the values. The things that lie behind the lamentation, beating the chest and the head, and shedding tears are the dearest things that one might find in the treasure trove of humanity, and they are the divine spiritual values. The Shia are trying to uphold the fact that Hussain ibn Ali (AS) is the epitome of all these values. The Shia are trying to keep their memories alive.

And if the Muslim Ummah keeps Imam Hussain's (AS) name and memory alive and follows him, it will overcome all the obstacles and hardships. And that is why all of us in the Islamic Revolution, in the Islamic Republic, from the highest to the lowest echelons including the people, the authorities, the senior officials and our honorable Imam have relied on the issue of Imam Hussain and the issue of Ashura and people's mourning. The mourning has a symbolic as well as a realistic aspect. It binds hearts together and broadens knowledge ...

Jan 9, 2008

Imam Khamenei:

I would like to discuss a point regarding the efforts to promote Islam in the month of Muharram. Some people may question the value of the ceremonies for mourning Imam Hussain's (pbuh) martyrdom. They may say, "If you want to speak about Imam Hussain's (pbuh) movement, just go ahead and speak about his movement. Why all the crying?" This is a wrong assumption. It will be extremely hard to move ahead on this path in the absence of this emotional connection to the infallible Imams. This is why Imam Khomeini (r.a.) recommended the traditional forms of mourning.

The Quranic verses about the role of the infallible Imams are interpreted in three different ways. Wilayat is one of these interpretations. "Your guardian can only be Allah - and His messenger and those who believe, who establish worship and pay charity, and bow down (in prayer)." [The Holy Quran, 5: 55] Another interpretation is submission and obedience. "Obey Allah and obey the Messenger and those in authority from among you." [The Holy Quran, 4: 59]

Friendship is the third interpretation. "Say: I do not ask of you any reward for it but love for my near relatives." [The Holy Quran, 42: 23] What is this friendship? People are advised to accept their Wilayat and obey them, but what is friendship for? This friendship is a kind of assurance. After the Holy Prophet (pbuh) passed away, those who ended this friendship gradually brushed aside the leadership of the infallible Imams (pbut). In the absence of this sense of friendship, the Islamic Ummah will face the same disasters. Therefore, this sense of friendship is of paramount importance, and it can be achieved through this emotional connection to the infallible Imams (pbut). Narrating the tragedies that happened to them is an attempt to establish this emotional connection. Similarly, praising their virtues [through the mourning ceremonies] is another way to form this emotional bond.

Therefore, it is necessary to hold the mourning ceremonies and narrate the events of Ashura. Some people should not adopt a so-called intellectual position and reject the necessity of these mourning ceremonies. These ceremonies are necessary, and they will always be necessary. Of course, some forms of mourning are unacceptable. For instance, tatbir [a religiously prohibited ritual in which people cut their foreheads] has been declared haraam, and it must not be practiced. That is because tatbir will make the enemies more insolent and will give them an advantage over those who love the members of the Holy Prophet's household. But the common mourning rituals can increasingly strengthen one's emotional connection to the infallible Imams. These rituals are very good.

Dec 13, 2009

Imam Khamenei:

Why is the uprising of Ashura different from all the uprisings and movements of the world?

We need to read between the lines, and carefully ponder over the life story of Hussain ibn-Ali (pbuh). Many have risen up in the world; they have had a leader, and they were also killed. Among them, numerous were children of the prophets and Imams (pbut). However, Imam Hussain (pbuh) was unique. The event of Karbala was extraordinary. The martyrs of Karbala have a special position. Why? The answer is to be searched in the nature of the event, which gives a lesson to us all, including and maybe, in particular, to you, dear [disabled] war veterans.

One characteristic of the event is that Imam Hussain's movement was solely and truly for the sake of God, the religion and rectifying the society of Muslims. This first feature is very important. Imam Hussain (pbuh) stated: "I did not rise up [leaving my homeland] out of self-interest, for the sake of seeking pleasure, corruption or oppression;”—that is, it was not for swaggering, selling himself, desiring something for himself, or a pretentious spectacle. There was not even a bit of oppression or corruption in this movement. “I rise up only for the sake of rectification of the nation of my grandfather, the Messenger of Allah."-This is an extremely important point. The Arabic word used which means 'only' indicates that there is no other intention that can contaminate the pure intention and the sun-like mind of Imam Hussain (pbuh). When addressing the first Muslims of the early years of Islam, the Holy Quran states: "Do not be like those who marched out boastfully to show off their strength to people and hinder people from the way of God {Quran; 8:47}.” Here, Imam Hussain (pbuh) says: “I did not rise up out of self-interest or for the sake of seeking pleasure.”

These are two different manners, two different behaviors. The Quran reads: "Do not be like those who marched out boastfully”, arrogantly, and selfishly. It means that this kind of behavior lacks purity of intentions. That is, in the movement of the corrupt approach, it is only self-centeredness that matters. “To show off”: This kind of person adorns himself, rides an expensive horse, wears pieces of jewelry, recites arrogant chants, and comes out. Toward where? Toward the battlefield. The battlefield is where this person and many like him will die. Such a person rises up in this manner. There is nothing but arrogance in him.

This is one way [of coming out]. On the other side, the best example is Hussain Ibn Ali (AS) who is pure from any form of selfishness and is not after self-interest or personal, familial, or communitarian gains. This is the first characteristic of the movement of Hussain Ibn Ali (AS). The more selfless one is, the more value does he gain in what he does. The more one moves away from the peak of selflessness, the closer they get to the peak of selfishness, egotism, self-interest, personal and seeking familial gain and such which is a whole other spectrum. Between that pure selflessness and pure selfishness, there is a vast field. Going from one side of it to the other decreases the value of our work. It becomes less fruitful, and also less durable. This is an outcome of the matter. The more defective the product, the sooner it decays. If it is pure, it will never go bad. Giving you a physical example, a piece of 100% pure gold never decays. Nor does it rust. But the more copper, iron, and other cheaper elements are added to the alloy, the more it becomes prone to decay and destruction. This is a general rule.

This applies to what is tangible. But when it comes to spirituality, these equations are far more discerning. We do not understand it because of our materialistic and ordinary vision. Nonetheless, men of vision and understanding perceive. The Critic in this matter, the Goldsmith and the Jeweler, is God the Almighty. And for sure, the Critic sees well. If there is an ounce of impurity in our work, its value would diminish accordingly, and God would reduce its lasting effect ...

January 16, 1994

Imam Khamenei:

Why is the uprising of Ashura different from all the uprisings and movements of the world?

God, the Exalted, is an insightful critic. The work of Imam Hussain (pbuh) is a work in which there is not even a slight hint of impurity. Hence, you see this quality achievement has lasted to this day and will last forever. Who could believe that after these people were killed in that desert far from their homes, while their bodies were buried there; with so much propaganda spread against them; all killed in such a heartless manner; their hometown of Medina was put on fire even after their martyrdom (the story of Harra, which happened the next year); -- this rose garden was devastated, and the petals of roses were all thrust, yet, later anyone would feel the aroma of the rosewater from this garden? According to which rule of nature, a petal of that rose garden can last so long in nature? However, you view the more time passes by, the more the aroma of that rose garden spreads. There are some people who do not believe that Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is the grandfather of Imam Hussain (pbuh) and that he follows in his path; yet, they believe in Imam Hussain (pbuh)! Some do not believe in his father, Ali (pbuh), yet, they believe in Imam Hussain (pbuh)! They do not believe in God—the God Imam Hussain worshipped, yet, before Imam Hussain (pbuh), they are humble and respectful! This is the outgrowth of Imam Hussain’s purity …

Who is Hussain (pbuh)

Imam Hussain's (pbuh) Mubahala: Sacrificing his dearest ones to rise up on the path of God
Aug 30, 2020

The following are excerpts from a Dars-Kharij-Fiqh Lecture, delivered on the eve of Muharram on March 12, 2002, which are published for the first time.

The woman who led to the survival of the biggest oppression-countering movement in history

Jan 7, 2015

Oppressors and tyrants wanted to eliminate the event of the Husseini Ashura... but Zaynab al-Kubra (God's greetings be upon her) did not allow this to happen. Our lady - Zaynab al-Kubra - made two moves in order to do this: one was made during her capture and her transfer to Kufa and Shaam where she made illuminating and enlightening speeches. The other move was making a pilgrimage to Karbala in Arbaeen. This was either the first or second Arbaeen. This move means that we should not allow the malevolent motives which intend to erase dear, influential and important eras from memories to be successful. Of course, they will not be successful. As long as nations are alive, as long as truthful tongues speak and as long as religious hearts are motivated, they will not be able to erase these eras and events, as they have not been successful until today

Imam Hussein; a role model for people of all ages

Jun 12, 2013

It is a glorious panorama in history which has been presented to the entire humanity. Imam Hussein (a.s.) prepared himself for such a day. Of course, the entire 50-plus-year life of Hussein ibn Ali (a.s.) is a lesson. His childhood is a lesson, his youth is a lesson, his behavior during his imamate is a lesson and his behavior after the martyrdom of Imam Hassan (a.s.) is a lesson. It was not the case that Imam Hussein's (a.s.) responsibility was confined to the last day. However, the event of Karbala enjoys such greatness and brightness that like a sun, it overshadows all the other lights.

Why are the martyrs of Karbala the masters of the martyrs throughout history?

Jun 12, 2013

Many people were martyred in the way of God and alongside the Holy Prophet (swa), the Commander of the Faithful (as) and divine prophets But none of these events is comparable to the event of Karbala. There is a difference between a person who enters the arena with the praise and encouragement of friends and companions and with a hope of victory and who is martyred in such conditions... and a person who enters the arena in a dark and gloomy world while not only do all the great personalities of the world of Islam refuse to accompany him, but they also blame him for engaging in battle. The latter enters the arena while there is no hope of assistance from anyone... He enters the arena with a few sincere friends and with his family - including his wife, his sister, his nieces and nephews, his six-month-old son and a few young members of his family - while his friends and supporters in Kufa refuse to accompany him. This is a strange event.

Imam Hussein (as) and his followers endured agonizing pain and suffering during Ashura

Nov 21, 2012

The pain and suffering which Imam Hussein (a.s.) and his followers endured on the day of Ashura were too agonizing and the harm which was inflicted was very serious. The life of Hussein ibn Ali (a.s.) is more valuable than everything in the world. The pure and sacred lives of those followers of Imam Hussein (a.s.), the lives of those youth and those members of Imam Hussein's (a.s.) household are not comparable to the life of other people. Their bodies were covered in blood and dirt. They made sacrifices and they laid down their lives. The households of the Holy Prophet (s.w.a.) and Imam Ali (a.s.) were imprisoned. Those events are very tragic and very difficult to tolerate. But what was achieved on the day of Ashura was so great and glorious that it made it easy for Imam Hussein (a.s.), his followers and his household to endure the sufferings. This has been narrated by prominent figures.

Imam Hussein's sacrifice prevented the deviation of Islam and the Prophet's path
Nov 21, 2012
The Islamic Ummah should never forget the event of Ashura which is a lesson and a source of guidance for us. Definitely, Islam is alive because of the event of Ashura and the efforts of Hussein ibn Ali (a.s.). "And I am from Hussein." This narration means that Hussein (a.s.) continued the path of the Holy Prophet (s.w.a.) and he continued to promote Islam after him. If it had not been for the event of Ashura and if these great sacrifices had not been made in the history of Islam, this valuable experience and this practical lesson would not have been bestowed on the Islamic Ummah and Islam would have definitely deviated from its path - as many religions before Islam did - and nothing would have remained from it. The greatness of Ashura is because of this.

Had it not been for Ashura, Islam would have gone astray like other religions
Nov 21, 2012

Had it not been for Ashura, had this great sacrifice not been made in the history of Islam, had this lesson not been taught and this experience not offered, Islam would have certainly suffered from deviation like the religions before Islam had suffered from, and nothing would have remained of the truth of Islam and its luminosity.

Imam Hussein rose up to proclaim the word of truth and save the people
Nov 27, 2011

The story didn't just end in the afternoon of Ashura; in fact, since the afternoon of Ashura, a movement started in history, which is still growing and expanding. It will be the same in the future, too. Imam Hussein (a.s.) did all in his power to proclaim the word of truth and to save the people. These are some of the traits that a person in general can see and show in the Ashura event.

Enemy's inferiority to Lady Zeinab's powerful personality during captivity
Apr 21, 2010

The greatness of Zeinab al-Kubra's (s.a.) movement is reflected in what is left of her sermons. Her unforgettable sermon in Kufa's marketplace was not just an ordinary speech. It was not just the personal opinion of an important figure. Her sermon was a great and beautifully-worded analysis of the Islamic community's situation at that time. The sermon included the most profound Islamic concepts. See how strong her character was. Her brother - her Imam and leader - had been martyred in a desert just two days before. Her dear ones, her children, and many other people had been martyred. She and tens of other women and children were taken captive on the same day. They were paraded in different places. Some of the people who were watching them were cheerful and some were shedding tears. Zeinab (s.a.) suddenly started her great mission in that critical situation.

The lady who made the blood conquer the sword
Apr 21, 2010

Zeinab al-Kubra (s.a.) is a prominent role model in history and shows the significance of a woman's presence in one of the most important events in human history. Blood gained a victory over the sword on the day of Ashura, and Zeinab al-Kubra (s.a.) was the cause of that victory. This was because the forces of righteousness were apparently defeated in a military fight in Karbala, but Zeinab al-Kubra's (s.a.) behavior was the factor that turned this apparent defeat into a permanent and decisive victory. That victory was due to the role she played after the day of Ashura... But Zeinab al-Kubra (s.a.) is a recent example and does not belong to ancient times. The story of her life is a tangible event. She played a brilliant role, making the enemies - who had apparently won the battle and slain all their opponents - feel humiliated in their own base. She branded them with permanent disgrace and turned their victory into a defeat.

Today the name of Hussain ibn Ali (as) shines like the sun
Feb 17, 2010

On the day of Karbala, Hussain ibn Ali (a.s.) and his companions were martyred in an abandoned desert where there was not any friend and where there were many enemies. On that day, his family members were taken captive and that was over. Today, this event - which should normally have been destroyed and consigned to oblivion after 10, 15 days - is still prominent, even after the passage of many centuries. The name of Hussain ibn Ali (a.s.) is shining like the sun and it is enlightening hearts and offering guidance not only among millions of Shias and other Muslims in different Islamic countries but also among non-Muslims.

"I saw nothing but beauty": Zeinab al-Kubra (sa)
Feb 8, 2010

On the day of Ashura Zeinab al-Kubra watched many of her dear ones go to the battlefield to get martyred. She watched Hussein ibn Ali (a.s.), Abbas, Ali Akbar, Qasem, her children, and other dear ones go to the battlefield. After they were martyred, she went through all those pains: The invasion of the enemy, disrespect, and the responsibility to take care of the surviving children and women. Is it possible to compare the enormity of this tragedy with physical pain? But when she was faced with these difficulties, Zeinab al-Kubra did not tell God to save her. She did not say, "O my Lord, save me." ...While the shredded body of her brother lay in front of her eyes, tells God, "O God, accept this sacrifice from us." When she was asked to describe what she had seen, she replied, "I did not see anything but beauty." All those tragedies were beautiful to Zeinab al-Kubra because they were from and for God - because they were supposed to promote the word of God.

Zeinab (s.a.) entered the heart of threats for the sake of Allah the Exalted
Feb 8, 2010

What Zeinab (s.a.) did was divine. That is to say, she went into the heart of threats and hardships for the sake of Allah the Exalted. It behooves us to know and to understand our glorious [religious] history which has been a source of intellectual blessings so far and which will hopefully benefit us until the end of time. Zeinab (s.a.) played an unparalleled role on the way to Karbala with Imam Hussein (a.s.), on the day of Ashura with all those hardships, and after Imam Hussein (a.s.) had been martyred. It is impossible to find a similar figure in history. Later on, numerous events took place - during her captivity, in Kufa, and in Sham. Because of these great selfless efforts, Zeinab al-Kubra (s.a.) gained a prominent position before Allah the Exalted, and this is something that we cannot describe.

Imam Hussein (a.s.) gave life and meaning to the day of Ashura
Jan 9, 2010

All days of the year are essentially the same. It is human beings, their determination, and selfless efforts that make certain days prominent and turn them into a flag to guide other people. Ashura - the 10th of Muharram - is not in itself different from other days. It was Imam Hussein (a.s.) who gave life and meaning to that day and raised its position. It was the selfless efforts of Hussein ibn Ali's (a.s.) companions that made Ashura so important.

Why is it important to hold mourning ceremonies for the martyrdom of Imam Hussein (a.s.)?
Dec 27, 2009

Some people may question the value of the ceremonies for mourning Imam Hussein's (a.s.) martyrdom. They may say, "If you want to speak about Imam Hussein's (a.s.) movement, just go ahead and speak about his movement. Why all the crying?" This is a wrong assumption. It will be extremely hard to move ahead on this path in the absence of this emotional connection to the infallible Imams... This sense of friendship is of paramount importance, and it can be achieved through this emotional connection to the infallible Imams (a.s.). Narrating the tragedies that happened to them is an attempt to establish this emotional connection. Similarly, praising their virtues [through the mourning ceremonies] is another way to form this emotional bond.Therefore, it is necessary to hold the mourning ceremonies and narrate the events of Ashura.

Mourning Ceremonies for Imam Hussein's (as) martyrdom are great opportunities to promote Islam
Dec 13, 2009

Religious publicity in the month of Muharram is a case in point. The religious ceremonies for mourning Imam Hussein's (a.s.) martyrdom provide us with the best opportunity to promote Islam. We should utilize this opportunity in order to help distinguish right from wrong and create a beacon of guidance for the people. In the modern world, creating fitnas is the main technique that is used by the enemies of the truth. In such a situation, the proponents of the truth should provide the people with as much insight and clear guidance as they can so that they do not get confused.

Why did Lady Zeinab (sa) insist they go to Karbala upon returning from Shaam?

Feb 16, 2009

The late Sayyid Ibn Tawus and other luminaries have maintained that when the captives - namely, Zeinab (s.a.) and the others - entered the desert of Karbala on Arba'een, Jabir Ibn Abdullah Ansari and Atiyyah Oofi were not the only people there. Some people from the Bani Hashem tribe and some of the companions of Imam Hussein (a.s.) had gathered at his shrine to welcome Zeinab (s.a.). Maybe that was why Zeinab insisted that they go to Karbala on their return from Shaam: She wanted this small but important gathering to be formed there. Some scholars have argued that they could not have made it to Karbala by Arba'een. The late Ayatollah Ghazi has explained in detail in one of his works how it was possible for them to arrive in Karbala by Arba'een.

In order to shed light on the Truth, Imam Hussein (a.s.) took with him to the battlefields his loved ones
Dec 13, 2009

Imam Hussein (a.s.) brought his dear ones to the desert of Karbala in order to clarify the truth. He knew what was going to happen, yet he brought Zeinab, his wives, his children, and his brothers with him. Like the day of Mubahila, it was again a matter of clarifying the truth and promoting Islam in the real sense of the word. That shows the importance of promoting Islam. "If someone comes across a ruthless sultan who mixes up halal with haraam and breaks his promise to God, they deserve living with the sultan in the hereafter." That is to say, when someone sees such a person, they should clarify the truth through their words and actions just as Imam Hussein (a.s.) did - and he paid the price for it. Imam Hussein brought his dear ones and his wives and children to Karbala in order to clarify the truth.

The first revolt took place during Arba'een
Feb 16, 2009

Arba'een, which took place after the Battle of Karbala, was only a start. That event marked the beginning. After the great tragedy in Karbala and the sacrifice that Imam Hussein (a.s.), his companions, and his family members made, those who were taken captive had to propagate the message of Karbala. The sermons and disclosures of Zeinab (s.a.) and Imam Sajjad (a.s.) had to act like a powerful medium and propagate the thought, goals, and positions of the martyrs of Karbala. That was what happened later on... Many people - who had listened to Zeinab (s.a.) or Imam Sajjad in Kufa and Shaam -found out a lot of things when they saw the conditions of the captives of Karbala. But they did not have enough courage or capabilities to stand up to the oppressive and arrogant government of the time and show what they had found out. Believers suppressed their feelings. Arba'een provided the first outlet for the suppressed truth and feelings. The first revolt took place on Arba'een.

If there was no Battle of Karbala, we would be oblivious to Islam's principals today
May 2, 2008

If this battle had not taken place in Karbala, we would not be aware of the principles of Islam to the extent we are today, and there was probably just a nominal trace of Islam. Not only were this great event and the holy blood of the martyrs not undermined, but they also gained more prominence in history. This is an outstanding example

Why does Ashura, in contrast to other events in history, gains more vitality over time?
May 2, 2008

Some events are forgotten over time, like a weak wave created by throwing a pebble in a pool of water-- there is a wave, but as the time passes, it becomes weaker every moment and fades away in a short time. But, there are events the other way around; they do not fade away over time; rather, time makes them more prominent. One example is the event of Ashura.

Sayeda Zeinab, Sukayna (ra), and the innocent girls and women recognized the magnitude of Ashura
May 2, 2008

Everyone was wondering what had happened on the day of Ashura. The greatness of the event, the greatness of the jihad done by the Prophet's (s.w.a.) loved one and his companions was not known to anyone. Neither was the magnitude of the catastrophe in which the Holy Prophet's (s.w.a.) sons and loved ones were martyred. The majority of those who were present in that battle did not recognize the importance of this issue. And those who were fighting for the enemies were so ignorant and unaware that they did not realize what had happened. Those enchanted by arrogance, lust, and animal urges cannot understand what is happening in the human world. Of course, Sayeda Zeinab (s.a.), Sukayna (s.a.), and those innocent girls and women did recognize the magnitude of the event. This is what happened on the day of Ashura.

Imam Hussain (a.s.) can be a role model for the world’s freedom seekers and justice seekers
Apr 14, 2000

Those who are not familiar with Islam but understand the concepts of freedom, justice, dignity, elevation and lofty human values, consider Imam Hussein (a.s.) as their Imam [leader] in seeking freedom, in seeking justice, in the fight against viciousness, and against ignorance and human degradation.

Imam Hussein's uprising was for the sake of God and a lesson of love and compassion
May 8, 1998

It is the lessons of Ashura which always live on as eternal, and permanent debates, not confined to a specific time. The lesson we learn from Ashura is the lesson of sacrifice and religiosity, the lesson of courage, justice and the lesson of rising up for God’s cause, and the lesson of love and compassion.

The west is in search of a lost treasure whose ultimate value is hidden in Ashura
May 24, 1995

One of our own Iranian thinkers had said—I heard that the person passed away— that "today the West is looking for figures like Sheikh Ansari and Mulla Sadra." Their life, spirituality and values attract western figures and western thinkers today. The source of all these treasures of truths and values is Islamic knowledge, and at the peak of this treasure of knowledge, is the knowledge of Ashura.

The Impact of Imam Hussein's Uprising on Justice and Freedom Movements
Jan 26, 1993

Hussein Ibn Ali (a.s.) awakened the conscience of the people. So you see, after the martyrdom of Imam Hussein (a.s.), Islamic uprisings were launched one after another. Of course, they were suppressed, but it is not important if a movement is suppressed by the enemy. It is surely bitter, but more bitter than that, is when a society does not respond to the enemy. This is a great danger. With his uprising, Imam Hussein Ibn Ali (a.s.) inspired individuals in all eras of the rule of tyrannies, to fight against oppressive and corrupt establishments with a willpower stronger than those of the time of Imam Hassan al-Mujtaba (a.s.)—even though they lived farther from the early years of Islam. And they were all suppressed. From the case of the uprising of the people of Medina, known as "Harreh", to the subsequent cases of Tawabin and Mokhtar uprisings, to the time of Umayyad and Bani Abbas, there were repeatedly uprisings within the nations. Who inspired these uprisings?If Imam Hussein (a.s.) had not risen up, would the spirit of laziness and irresponsibility change into the spirit of oppression-countering and responsibility? Why do we say the spirit of responsibility had died? Because Imam Hussein went to Mecca from Medina, the center of the nobles of Islam. The son of Abbas, the son of Zubair, the son of Omar, the son of early caliphs of Islam, all gathered in Medina, and no one of them was willing to help Imam Hussein (a.s.) in that bloody and historic uprising. So, before the launching of Imam Hussein's uprising, even the elites were not ready to take a step. But after the uprising of Imam Hussein (a.s.), this spirit was aroused. This is a great lesson to be learned from the event of Ashura, along with other lessons.

The events of Ashura lived on thanks to Imam Sajjad and Lady Zaynab’s endeavors, explanations and revelation of reality
Sep 20, 1989

If Zainab Kubra (a.s.) and Imam Sajjad (a.s.) had not fought, or revealed and interpreted the truth of Ashura's philosophy, or the purpose of Hussein ibn Ali (a.s.) and the enemy's oppression during the days of captivity--in the evening of Ashura in Karbala, in the following days en-route to Sham and Kufa, and in the city of Sham, then on the pilgrimage of Karbala, and while moving to Medina and during the many years that these great figures lived--the event of Ashura wouldn’t have survived and remained as vivacious till this day.

Imam Hussain’s uprising against corrupt regimes, destructive to mankind
Aug 2, 1989

That noble man [Imam Hussein] rose up to eliminate from societies corrupt regimes that are destructive to mankind, religion and righteousness and to establish an Islamic, divine and humane and upright system in society.

The main reason Imam Hussain (as) brought Ali Asghar to the enemy’s army
Sep 12, 1986

I assume the main reason Imam Hussain (as) brought Ali Asghar to the enemy’s army, to ask for water in order to nourish the infant—while there was very little hope that these lupine enemies would have sympathy and give the baby water-- was that Imam Hussain (as) had no other option and there was nothing he could do to help. When the Imam (as) moved about the tents, he noticed the air was filled with anguish and much commotion, this small infant’s thirst, hunger and distress had moved everyone. Hussain Ibn Ali (as) had to take the baby in his arms—although there was very little chance the enemy would give the baby a cup of water to sooth his thirst.

What was Hazrat Zeinab's reaction upon seeing her brother's bloodied body?
Sep 27, 1985

Hazrat Zeinab was heading the women towards the sight of his martyrdom. When she arrived, she spotted the body of her beloved brother on the blistering grounds of Karbala. Instead of revealing some sort of reaction, or grievance, she went to the corpse of her beloved Hussain (as), and called on her grandfather (pbuh). She said, “O’ the Messenger of God, peace be upon you! Take a look at your Hussain who is covered in blood, with his body hacked up.” O’ my dear grandfather! O’ Great Prophet, look towards the hot desert of Karbala. This is your Hussain who is now covered in blood and dust. Then, as it has been narrated, Zeinab (as) reached her hands beneath the body of Hussain Ibn Ali (as) and called out, “O’ God! Please accept this sacrifice from the progeny of Muhammad (saw)!”

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِیمِ

اَلسَّلامُ عَلَیکمْ یا اَهْلَ بَیتِ النُّبُوَّة

السلام علیک یا فاطمه الزهرا یا صدیقه الشهیده سلام الله علیها

وَلَقَدْ کَتَبْنَا فِی الزَّبُورِ‌ مِن بَعْدِ الذِّکْرِ‌ أَنَّ الْأَرْ‌ضَ یَرِ‌ثُهَا عِبَادِیَ الصَّالِحُونَ

و در حقیقت، در زبور پس از تورات نوشتیم که زمین را بندگان شایسته ما به ارث خواهند برد. انبیاء ۱۰۵

آفتابی که به زائر حسین علیه السلام می‌تابد، گناهانش را از بین می‌برد

امام صادق علیه السلام:
زائرِ حسین(ع) وقتى به قصد زیارت از خانه‏‌اش خارج می‌شود،
سایه‏‌اش بر چیزى نمی‌افتد، مگر اینکه آن چیز برایش دعا می‌کند.
و هنگامى که آفتاب بر او بتابد، گناهانش را از بین می‌برد،
همان‌طور که آتش هیزم را از بین می‌برد.

عن ابی عبد الله(ع): أَنَّ زَائِرَهُ لَیَخْرُجُ مِنْ رَحْلِهِ فَمَا یَقَعُ فَیْئُهُ عَلَى شَیْ‏ءٍ إِلَّا دَعَا لَهُ، فَإِذَا وَقَعَتِ الشَّمْسُ عَلَیْهِ، أَکَلَتْ ذُنُوبَهُ کَمَا تَأْکُلُ النَّارُ الْحَطَب‏. وَ مَا تُبْقِی الشَّمْسُ عَلَیْهِ مِنْ‏ ذُنُوبِهِ شَیْئاً، فَیَنْصَرِفُ وَ مَا عَلَیْهِ ذَنْب‏.

آقای پزشکیان! شک نکنید...

سال ۹۶ حسن روحانی از طریق کمپین تبلیغاتی‌اش القا کرد که اگر شهید رییسی، رییس جمهور شود، دلار ۲۵۰۰ تومانی می‌شود ۵۰۰۰ تومان که با اعتماد روحانی به وعده‌های غربی‌ها شد ۳۰۰۰۰ تومان! در انتخابات امسال هم گفتند اگر جلیلی رییس جمهور شود، شک نکنید که بورس سقوط می‌کند تا جایی که آقای پزشکیان هم آن را تکرار کرد. حالا فقط چند روز پس از انتخاب دکتر پزشکیان بورس سبز و در روزهای بعد تا همین امروز رنگ بورس خونی بود! آقایان به فکر باشید

تلخ اما واقعی!

این حرف‌های چند سال قبل نتانیاهو را ببینید!

چه قدر رهبری نسبت به تهاجم فرهنگی هشدار دادند و بعضی‌ها نشنیده گرفتند!

امروز اما درد ما این است که متأسفانه محتوای همان ماهواره را (البته به صورت بومی‌شده و با شیب تندی به سمت انحطاط فرهنگی و دوری از معارف ناب شیعی) در شبکه نمایش خانگی به خورد خانواده‌هایمان می‌دهیم! آن هم به صورت رسمی‌و قانونی و با مهر نظارت ج.ا.ا

آیا این یکی از مصادیق بارز نفوذ فرهنگی نیست!؟

و درد بزرگتر این است که هنوز تغییر محسوسی در مدیریت فرهنگی کشور دیده نمی‌شود! و این یعنی ظاهرا بعضی متولیان و‌ مدیران فرهنگی ما، عادت کرده اند تا با لگد دشمن بیدار بشوند! نه هشدار دلسوز‌ها...

آن روزی که به ما موشک می‌زنند، خطرناک نیست ولی...

در جمع ما هستند کسانی که قبل از انقلاب، گرفتار زندان و شکنجه و اینها بودند و این حرف بنده را خوب متوجه می‌شوند. بازجو وقتی شلاق به دست می‌گرفت و می‌زد، موقع حساس و خطرناکی نبود، اما وقتی دستور می‌داد چلو کباب برای آقا بیاورید خطرناک بود! وقتی می‌گفت تلفن در اختیارش بگذارید تا به هرکه می‌خواهد تلفن کند،‌ آنوقت خطرناک بود. وقتی می‌گفت نامه‌ای بنویس به خانواده‌ات، آنوقت خطرناک بود. وقتی نمازخوان‌هایشان را می‌آوردند -اگر نمازخوانی داشتند- که بیاید با این زندانی که نمازخوان هست صحبت کند، خطرناک بود.

ساعت خطرناک، آن زمانی بود که این فرد با خودش می‌گفت: «اینها آنطور هم بدذات نیستند که ما فکر می‌کنیم». گفتنِ این حرف همان، و #سقوط کردن همان!
یک ذره حسن‌ظن، انسان را ساقط می‌کرد. افرادی بودند که باآبرو به زندان رفتند، اما بی‌آبرو از زندان بیرون آمدند! اصلاً عوض شدند. مشی‌شان تغییر پیدا کرد، اصلاً آخرش ساواکی شدند. فردی بود،‌ مبارزه کرده بود،‌ زندان افتاد، بعد ساواکی شد؛ چون یک ذره به آنها #حسن_ظن پیدا کرد؛ یک ذره فکر کرد که در آنها رحم و انسانیتی هست.

آن روزی که به این مملکت، #موشک می‌زنند، خطرناک نیست. آن روزی که برای #صلح می‌آیند باید دست به دعا برداشت و استغاثه کرد و خود را به خدا سپرد! این ساعت‌ها خطرناک‌تر است! بمباران شهرها، علامت ضعف آنهاست، چون امت آگاه‌اند نمی‌توانند با صحبت، مردم را تسخیر کنند و لذا چوب می‌زنند!

هانى بن عروة مرادى

وى ابو یحیى مذحجى مرادى غطیفى،‌هانى بن عروة بن نمران بن عمرو بن قعاس بن عبد یغوث بن مخدش بن حصر بن غنم بن مالک بن عوف بن منبّه بن غطیف بن مراد بن مذحج و مانند پدر خود عروه، یکى از یاران رسول خدا (صلّى اللّه علیه و آله و سلّم) و پیرى سالخورده بود. او و پدرش از شخصیّتهاى به نام شیعه تلقى مى ‏شدند.‌هانى در جنگهاى سه‏ گانه حضرت امیر المؤمنین علیه السّلام (جمل، صفّین و نهروان) در رکاب آن حضرت حضور داشت‏ و در کوفه به خاطر حمایت از حضرت مسلم بن عقیل (علیه السّلام) به شهادت رسید.

در مروج ‏الذهب درباره مقتل‌هانی بن عروه جلال و شوکت وی در بین قبیله اش و بی وفایی قبیله وی آمده است:

«فأصعدوه[مسلم (علیه السّلام)] الى أعلى القصر فضرب بکیر الأحمری عنقه فأهوى رأسه الى الأرض ثم أتبعوا رأسه جسده ثم امر بهانی‏ء ابن عروة فأخرج الى السوق فضرب عنقه صبراً و هو یصیح: یا آل مراد و هو شیخها و زعیمها و هو یومئذ یرکب فی اربعة آلاف دارع و ثمانیة آلاف راجل و إذا إجابتها احلافها من کندة و غیرها کان فی ثلاثین ألف دارع فلم یجد زعیمهم منهم أحداً فشلًا و خذلاناً.»

«مسلم را بالاى قصر بردند و بکیر احمرى گردنش را بزد و سرش را روى زمین افکند. پس از آن جسدش را نیز به زمین افکندند. سپس [ابن زیاد (لعنه الله علیه)] بگفت تا‌هانى بن عروه را به بازار بردند و دست بسته گردنش را بزدند. او همچنان فریاد می‌زد و از قبیله بنى مراد کمک می‌خواست که شیخ و پیشواى قبیله بود و با چهار هزار زره‏ پوش و هشت هزار پیاده سوار می‌شد و اگر قبایل همپیمان او از کنده و غیره بدو مى ‏پیوستند سى هزار زره‏ پوش می‌شدند ولى پیشواى قبیله یکى از آنها بدو کمک نکرد که پراکنده و مرعوب بودند.»
