The Two Severed Arms

To the arms that held water, Only momentarily until they rejected it's coolness And slapped Euphrates for it's unworthiness When the parched lips of Sakina (sa) Still lamented "Al Atash" While the Euphrates flows!

To the arms that held, The water bag close to the chest, To safeguard the hopes of the children of Hussain (as) And to alleviate their longing and pain To bring water in bowls held in their tiny hands The hands, mighty enough to bring down the rains!

To the arms that lay severed On the plain of Karbala and picked one by one By the one who held those arms for thirty two years, He who broke and said, "Abbas! Where are you my dear?" The two arms that if had not been severed There wouldn't be Shaam and Sakina (sa) in tears…

In worldly love, the person in question asks you to cross rivers of fire to reach them. Real love is Karbala, where Abal Fadhl (a) crosses rivers of fire to reach you and tells you, 'Come, come with us.

[fachoarif]

After every prayer I call out, "O' Abal Fadhl (a) I'm thirst for a glimpse of Karbala! I need the water of your shrine."

[likewaterfallz]

It takes only the heart, soul, and character of Abbas (as) to be in thirst and conquer the river only to throw it's unworthy water back to it's heart and prefer to quench the thirst from the purest of water - Kausar…

It can only be the heart of Abbas (as) to deny himself the coolness of water and immediately gives away his hands for feeling the coolness whilst the hands of his master were blood ridden and feeling the heat of the sand of Karbala..

It can only be the heart of Abbas (as) to have every bit of him shattered, bruised, broken and torn knowing that soon enough the body of his master would be trampled by stallions.

It can only be the heart of Abbas (as) to aim for eradicating those who wanted to erase Hussain (as), and make his aim in line with the aims of Imam of his time. So what if Abbas (as) was not allowed to fight? Abbas (as) continued the aim of eradicating the enemies of Hussain (as) so he allowed the enemies to break his head, spine, and ribs but he broke the ideologies of the enemies by forever bring the flag of Hussain (as) in every piece of land and water.

"“O self! After Husain you are nothing and after him there is nothing. This is Husain who is going towards death while you would drink cool water? By Allah! This is not an action sanctioned by my religion.””

— Words of Hazrat Abbas A.S when he reached Euphrates and did not quench his thirst but instead quoted the above lines to himelf <3

Dear Hazrat Abbas (as),

You are the art of loving Imam Hussain (as). You are the masterpiece who had been created by God to let the world know how Imam Hussain (as) should be followed, heard, known, respected and loved ❤️ He who is virtuous to stand side by side imamate, who echoes the aims imamate, is the one whom hearts seek and to whom souls bow.

Salutations on Almamdar e Hussain (as)

HAZRAT ABBAS (AS)

When the dust of sand rises from the desert plain,

And the hands that dip in water only to remind Euphrates,

That eternity is yet to go and the heart of Euphrates,

Has nothing but regret to spend this time,

If Hussain's (as) children remained thirsty while Euphrates still flows,

And the hands grab the pail to return.

When the dust of the sand settles,

And the drops of blood make the sand crimson,

And the hands that are severed fall on its heart,

And the hands that are collected by someone with a broken back,

To return these hands to the tents, as the only remains,

Of the one and only dear beloved!

Oh, the thirst that never caused a request for water ever since!

Ya Abbas (as)

Haye Abbas (as)

Ya Hussain (as)

Haye Hussain (as)

Water quenches the thirst of many but what quenches the thirst of water?

The parched lips of the children of Hussain (as)!!!!!!

Water itself is thirsty and deprived every since Abbas (as) slapped a handful of water in Euphrates for Hussain's (as) thirst.

And ever since Sakina (sa) stopped asking for water.

And most of all, ever since Hussain (as) parched lips were quenched by his own blood and not water!!!

Ramzan in Karbala 💚
