Asslamoalaikum sisters brothers friends and elders,
We are strating describe about incidents of Karbala from where we yesterday stop, so yesterday we were discribing that Obstructing the Imam (as) and His Companions from Reaching the Water

‘Umar bin Sa‘d received a letter from ‘Ubaidullah bin Ziyad which read [as follows]:

“Prevent al-Husayn and his companions from reaching water. They should not taste [even] a drop of it as was done to the commander of the faithful, ‘Uthman bin ‘Affan, the pious, the chaste and the oppressed!”

So ‘Umar bin Sa‘d dispatched ‘Amru bin al-Hajjaj21 with five hundred horsemen who halted at the banks of the Euphrates and prevented al-Husayn (as) and his companions from drinking [even] a drop from it. This was three days before al-Husayn’s martyrdom.

When the thirst became unbearable for al-Husayn (as) and his companions, he called his brother ‘Abbas bin ‘Ali bin Abi Talib and sent him along with thirty horsemen and twenty foot soldiers with whom he sent twenty waterskins. They advanced and neared the water at night with Nafi’ bin Hilal al-Jamali22 leading the way with the standard.

so friends tomorow we will be started describing from here, Allah Hafiz
