Quotations of Hazrat Imam Hussein (AS)

1- Almighty Allah bestows His bounties on a person over & above his needs if he offers his prayer & worships Allah in letter & spirit.
2- When other people turn to you in need, consider it a favour of Allah. Do not be wearied of this favour, or it will move on to someone else.
3- O God, I have left the world in Your love, am ready to make my children orphans in Your love, my heart could not divert towards anyone but You, even if You cut my body into pieces in Your love.
4- I am not taking up arms in order to make merry, or be ecstatic over what I possess. I am not making mischief, nor exercising oppression. But I am ready to fight for the sole goal of seeking reform of the ummah of my grandfather, the Prophet of Allah (saw).
