◼️ Gate of #Salvation for the Nation… ▪️«فَوَقَفَ يَسْتَرِيحُ‏ سَاعَةً» (He stopped for a moment to rest)... Pay attention carefully, in such a battle where he was by the fallen body of #Abbas (peace be upon him), he was by the body of #Ali_son_of_Hussain (peace be upon them both), when the fatigue was beyond words. There came a rock. It hit the #forehead … He lifted the corner of his garment to wipe the #blood away. What else happened? Not utterable… ▪️ Pay attention to this: He held his hands under the #blood of his heart; Why did he do that? What was the ground for holding the hands? If this #blood was spilled onto the ground, no earth would have remained nor the inhabitants of the earth! That is the meaning of «رحمة اللّه الواسعة» (God's infinite mercy) and «بَابُ‏ نَجَاةِ الْأُمَّةِ» (gate of salvation for the Nation). He held his hands that way and did not let the blood be spilled... 🎙 Grand Ayatollah Wahid Khorasani 📅 24/May/1995 ◼️ #Faqih_Speech #Imam_Hussain ☑️ @Fatemyeh_ValiAsr_en
