Hussein was born on 10 October CE
625. However, Shia Hadith state that He was born AH
3. Hussein and his brother Hasan were the last
descendants of Mohamed living during his lifetime and
remaining after his death. There are many accounts of
his love for them which refer to them together.
Is reported to have said that "Who loves me and
loves these two, their father and their mother, will be
with me at my place on the Day of Resurrection. And
that "Hussein is of me and I am of him.
Allah loves those who love Hussain. Hussein is a
grandson among grandsons. A narration declares them
the "Masters of the Youth of Paradise"; this has been
particularly important for the Shia who have used it in
support of the right of Muhammad's descendants to
succeed him.
We will get closer to recognize the honorable family
of Imam Hussein may Allah be pleased with him
(Master of youth of the people of Paradise), who is his
father, his mother, his brother, his wives and his
children?
Imam Ali bin Abi Talib:
He was born to parents ,Abu Talib and Fatimah bint
Asad, Ali is the only person to be born in the sacred
sanctuary of the Kaaba in Mecca, the holiest place
in Islam, according to many classical Islamic sources,
especially Shia ones.
Ali was the first male who accepted Islam, and
according to some authors the first
Muslim. After migrating to Medina, he married
Muhammad's daughter Fatimah.
