Ameen to that, i sure hope we can be close to Ehli Beyt i want to know what other Muslims know about Karbala. i've started a thread on Islam DIR about it. IMO this is very important issue. sort of makes me sick to know everything is used by enemies of Allah to divide us. the same thing was done right after Prophet died. so how could those Muslims who saw him in person cut his most precious grandson's head off? why did Hussein have to sacrifice his life to save Islam? he basicly was given two options. he would either get killed or accept Caliphate of Zayd. he chosed to die so that we could see. that breaks my heart. but he did not die in vain, no way
