Victory, Vengeance, and Remembrance: Eid-e Zahra and Mukhtar's Triumph - Maulana Syed Muhammad Rizvi

- Celebrating the victory of Mukhtar bin ‘Ubaydullah ath-Thaqafi and his army over the Yazidi army on the 9th of Rabi al-Awwal, year 66 AH, with the death of ‘Umar ibn Sa‘d. - Eid-e Zahra symbolically relates to Eid-e Ghadir, signifying tawalla (love) and tabarra (dissociation) in Islam. - While some Shi‘as advocate not harboring ill feelings, tabarra is a valid concept. - Love for Imam Ḥusayn and sympathy for his murderers cannot coexist. - Imam Ṣādiq's salutation to Imam Ḥusayn in Ziyārat-e Wārith emphasizes Allah's vengeance for his innocent blood. - Punishment for opposing Allah and His Messenger includes death, crucifixion, amputation, or banishment in this world, with severe punishment in the Hereafter. - Allah orchestrates circumstances for wrongdoers' punishment. - A list of major Yazidi army officers punished by Mukhtar's followers after Karbala. - Consequences for key figures like Shimr, 'Umar ibn Sa‘d, and others. - Fleeing officers sought refuge in Syria or Mecca. - Two Du‘as of Imam Sajjad (a.s.) - Mukhtar sent Ibn Ziyad's head to Medina, reaching Imam Zaynul ‘Abidin while he was having a meal.
