Arbaeen is a significant event in the Islamic calendar, particularly for Shia Muslims. It marks the 40th day after the Day of Ashura, which is the day of the martyrdom of Imam Hussain (as), the grandson of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), at the Battle of Karbala in 680 AD. The name “Arbaeen” itself means “forty” in Arabic, signifying the end of the 40-day mourning period.

Key Aspects of Arbaeen:

1. Commemoration of Imam Hussain (as): Arbaeen is a day to remember the sacrifice of Imam Hussain (as) and his 72 companions, who stood against the tyranny of Yazid, the Umayyad caliph. Imam Hussain’s (as) stand is seen as a symbol of resistance against oppression and injustice.
2. The Pilgrimage: One of the most notable aspects of Arbaeen is the pilgrimage to the city of Karbala in Iraq, where Imam Hussain (as) is buried. Millions of people from around the world, particularly from Iraq and neighboring countries, walk to Karbala. This pilgrimage is one of the largest peaceful gatherings in the world.
3. Spiritual Significance: Arbaeen is a time for reflection on the values of justice, sacrifice, and steadfastness. Pilgrims often walk for days, covering hundreds of kilometers, to reach Karbala, demonstrating their devotion and love for Imam Hussain (as).
4. Global Observance: While the epicenter of the Arbaeen pilgrimage is in Karbala, the day is observed by Shia communities worldwide with processions, gatherings, and religious services.
5. Cultural and Social Impact: Arbaeen has grown in significance over the years, becoming not only a religious observance but also a cultural and political statement against tyranny and for the rights of the oppressed. The event has also gained attention for its humanitarian aspects, as pilgrims are provided with free food, water, and medical services by volunteers along the pilgrimage routes.

Overall, Arbaeen is a deeply spiritual event that resonates with themes of resistance, sacrifice, and the pursuit of justice, drawing millions of people in one of the most significant religious gatherings in the world.

Tenth of Muharram (Ashura)

• Battle of Karbala: The dawn of Ashura breaks, and the day begins with prayers. Imam Hussain and his followers prepare for battle, fully aware of the overwhelming odds against them. Despite being heavily outnumbered, they exhibit extraordinary bravery and determination. The battle is marked by intense fighting and immense sacrifice. Imam Hussain’s companions, including his beloved relatives, are martyred one by one, each displaying remarkable valor.
• Martyrdom of Imam Hussain: In the afternoon, Imam Hussain himself is surrounded and brutally martyred. His last moments are filled with prayers and expressions of his unwavering faith. His death marks a pivotal moment in Islamic history, symbolizing the ultimate stand against tyranny and injustice.
• Aftermath: The women and children in Imam Hussain’s camp are taken captive by Yazid’s forces. The tents are looted and set ablaze. The surviving family members, including Imam Hussain’s sister, Zainab, and his ill son, Imam Zain-ul-Abidin, are treated with cruelty and forced to march towards Kufa and then Damascus.

Ultimatum and Preparations: Yazid’s forces, now fully assembled and prepared for battle, deliver an ultimatum to Imam Hussain, demanding his immediate surrender and allegiance to Yazid. Imam Hussain requests a night of reprieve to spend in worship and prayer. That night, known as the Night of Tasu’a, is filled with intense spiritual reflection. Imam Hussain addresses his followers, affirming their loyalty and granting them the choice to leave if they wish. His companions, unwavering in their dedication, choose to stay and fight alongside him.

Ya Hussain (A.S)

Eighth of Muharram
Further Diplomatic Efforts: Despite the escalating siege, Imam Hussain continues to send messages to the enemy forces, reminding them of his noble lineage, his right to lead, and the principles of justice and righteousness. These efforts, however, are met with rejection and increased hostility from Yazid’s commanders.

Seventh of Muharram

• Water Supply Cut Off: The situation grows dire as access to the Euphrates River is completely severed by Yazid’s forces. This act of cruelty aims to force Imam Hussain into submission by causing severe thirst and suffering among his camp. Imam Hussain’s brother, Abbas, known for his valor, makes several attempts to bring water to the camp, risking his life in the process.

Incremental Siege: Reinforcements continue to join Yazid’s army, swelling their ranks to approximately 20,000 men. During these days, the blockade around Imam Hussain’s camp tightens, and the tension mounts. Imam Hussain continues his diplomatic efforts, hoping to prevent violence and reach a peaceful resolution. The enemy forces begin to enforce restrictions, limiting the movement of Imam Hussain’s companions and cutting off their supply routes.

1st - 3rd Muharram

First of Muharram

• Imam Hussain’s Caravan: Imam Hussain and his followers, including family members and close companions, are traveling towards Kufa in response to invitations from the people of Kufa who seek his leadership against the tyrannical rule of Yazid, the Umayyad caliph. As they journey, they are intercepted by the forces of Yazid, led by the commander Hurr ibn Yazid. Hurr prevents Imam Hussain from proceeding towards Kufa and instead directs him towards Karbala. Upon arrival, they set up camp in the desert plains of Karbala.

Second of Muharram

• Setting Up Camp in Karbala: Imam Hussain and his caravan, consisting of approximately 72 men along with women and children, establish their camp in Karbala. They are situated near the banks of the Euphrates River. Meanwhile, Yazid’s forces begin to assemble in large numbers around the area, indicating the seriousness of the confrontation to come.

Third of Muharram

• Arrival of Umar ibn Sa’ad: Umar ibn Sa’ad arrives in Karbala with a large army, numbering around 4,000 men, to command Yazid’s forces. The situation becomes increasingly tense as the enemy’s numerical advantage becomes apparent. Imam Hussain engages in dialogue with Umar ibn Sa’ad, attempting to avoid bloodshed by explaining his mission and offering alternatives.
