Ramadan

His Eminence (‘a) was mostly engrossed in prayers and fasting. 1 Every twenty hours he used to recite a thousand units of prayer as narrated by his son, Zainul Abideen. 2In the month of Ramadan he used to complete the recitation of Quran. 3 Ibn Zubair has mentioned about the Imam’s worship saying: “By Allah they killed him! The one who used to stand up in prayers at night and fasted during the days too much.” 4 5 References:Tahzibul Asma 1/163, Maqrizi, Khatat 2/285[↩]Yaqubi, Tarikh, 2/219, Ibnul Wardi, Tarikh 1/233[↩]Seer A’laamun Nubla, 3/291[↩]Tabari, Tarikh 6/273[↩]The Life of Imam Husayn (‘a); Research and Analysis, Baqir SharifRead More →
