Dear All,
The following scenario of Kerbala is to refresh your minds with the fateful events that took place on the plains of Kerbala. Please forward this to your other friends, so they too may visualize the event ... as can possibly be done by our limited perspective ... for a tragedy of such enormous proportions ...
When you bring water to your lips .... remember the thirst of our poor Imam (AS), his kin and companions ....
