<h2>What is Muharram?</h2>
<p>
Muharram is the first month in the Hijri Islamic calendar. Muharram is
regarded as a sacred month by all Muslims, due to the historical
events that took place. The Shia school of thought takes the stance
that Muharram is a sad month, due to the crimes that were committed
against the household of the Prophet in Muharram of the year 61 Hijri
(680 AD), and that these events should be celebrated and mourned every
year. On the other side, the Sunni school of thought takes the stance
that Muharram has little significance, and that mourning is not
recommended. They do however, recommend fasting on the day of Ashura,
due to their narrations that the Prophet Muhammed (ص) fasted this day
upon hearing that it was the day that Prophet Musa was saved from the
Pharaoh. The month of Muharram is also one of the 4 "Haram"/sacred
months in Islam, in which fighting is prohibited.

<h2>Who is Imam Hussain?</h2>
<p>
Al Hussain Ibn Ali Ibn Abi Taleb (ع) is the 2nd grandson of the
Islamic Prophet (ص), son of his daughter Fatima (ع), and his cousin
and son in law the prince of believers Ali ibn Abi Taleb (ع). Imam
Hussain (ع) is the 3rd divinely chosen, and infallible Imam of Shia
Islam. Born on the 5th of Shabaan in the 4th year after the Hijra,
Imam Hussain (ع) was one of the most beloved of people to Rasoolullah
(ص), in which many narrations were recorded, establishing his great
status, such as "Hussain is the light guidance, and the ark of
salvation", "Hussain is from me and I am from Hussain", "Allah loves
those who love Hussain". Even with all these virtues and proofs of his
elevated status given by Rasoolullah (ص), only 50 years after the
death of the messenger, Imam Hussain (ع) found himself betrayed by the
Muslim ummah, as he publicly denounced the caliphate of the tyrant,
Yazid Ibn Muawiyah (ل). Upon receiving many letters from the people of
Kufa, expressing their support for Imam Hussain (ع), he and a handful
of his family and supporters left Medina, and began a journey towards
Kufa. On the way, they were intercepted on the 7th of Muharram by the
army of Umar ibn Sa'd (ل), who approached the Imam (ع) with an army of
30,000 soldiers. On the 10th of Muharram, the Imam (ع), and 77
soldiers from his family and supporters were massacred, and their
women were taken captive to Shaam, where the palace of Yazid (ل) was.
The message of Imam Hussain (ع) was to stand against oppression, and
his voice is echoed throughout history.
