💐Milad of Sayeda Zainab Al Kubra (sa) 💐
12 January 2019 / 5 Jamadi al Awwal 1440
🌹 My sincerest congratulations to the Imam of our Time (atfs), the Ahlul Bayt (as) and all lovers and followers of the Ahlul Bayt (as), as we celebrate the Birth Anniversary of the Lady of Patience Sayeda Zainab bint Ali ibn Abi Talib (as) born on the 5th Jamadi al-Awwal (5 A.H.) 🌹
May Allah (swt) pour blessings upon her and her parents; Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib Amir al Momineen (as) and Sayyedat Nisa al-Alamīn Fatima al Zahra (sa), and her grandparents; Prophet Muhammad (saws) and Ummul Momineen Hazrat Khadijah (sa), and her siblings (as) and children (as).
When Sayeda Zainab (sa) was born Angel Jibreel wept when bringing her name to the Holy Prophet Muhammad (saws). When The Holy Prophet (saws) asked why Jibreel wept, he answered, "O Messenger of Allah, from early on in life this girl will remain entangled in tribulations and trials in this world. First she will weep over your separation (from this world); thereafter she will bemoan the loss of her mother, then her father, and then her brother Hassan. After all this she will be confronted with the trials of the land of Karbala and the tribulations of that lonely desert, as a result of which her hair will turn grey and her back will be bent."
May Allah (swt) pour curse upon curse on all those who usurped the right of Muhammad (saws) and Muhammad’s Household (as) and to the last follower who acceded to this deed.
No words can describe fully the magnificence and beauty Sayeda Zainab (sa) embodied. Despite all the trails, tribulations, tragedies and oppression she encountered in her life, she always remained steadfast and virtuous in her faith, duties and responsibilities. She is an eternal role model and inspiration for humanity whose resistance, patience, strength, sacrifice, faith, courage, conviction, morality, humility and honour, we can all learn and strive to replicate to become better servants to Allah (swt).
May we all commemorate this blessed and joyous occasion whilst remembering the pillar of Karbala, Umm al-Masaib, al-Fadhilah - Sayeda Zainab al Aqilah (sa).
