Well, protest is happening. It happens everywhere. Not everything is CIA, coup, Western interference. People in Iran previously protested for job, inflation, giving unnecessary aid to Palestine, now for forced hijaab. The government of Iran and Khamenei and Raisi, like others, are fallible, make (intentional) mistakes. At such times, your enemy will interfere, happens everywhere. Protests are real. Get over it.

Answer: There is no doubt that the tragedy of Kerbala, when ascribed to the killers, is a criminal and terrible act. However when ascribed to Husain (A) himself, it represents a conscious confrontation and a courageous resistance for a sacred cause. The whole nation had failed to stand up to Yazid. They had succumbed to his will, and deviation and regression towards the pre-Islamic ways were increasing. Passiveness by Husain (A) in this situation would have meant the end of Islam as we know it. Thus Husain (A) took upon himself the responsibility of the whole nation. The greatest tragedy was that one who stood up for the noblest of causes, the defense of Islam, was cut down in so cruel a manner. It is for this reason that the sacrifice of Husain (A) is commemorated annually throughout the Muslim world. Our sorrow never abates as we relive the tragedy. The commemoration of Ashura on the 10th of Muharram every year serves to remind us of the sacrifices of the family of the Prophet (S). It also makes us aware of the people, then and now, who tried to destroy Islam and the family of the Prophet (S) and all that they stood for - as well as those who watched, listened and did nothing. Many Questions are answered in the above Q&A https://www.sistani.org/english/qa/01125/ If you stop Majlis Matam, Yazid would become raziallah just as Qatil-e-Zehra (sa) is.

We all attend same set of Majalis/Azadari every year and atmosphere of some majlis/Azadari on the day of Ashur is very sorrowful and Azadar are already grief-stricken. Since, we all know that this would be our state, we are prepared. It's difficult to explain more than this. We should not be nitpicking in Azadari of Aba Abdillah (عليه السلام).

Alaikas Salaam, From an authentic (Sahih) chain of At-Tusi from Abī Abdillāh(عليه السلام) who said: "Every kind of Jaza'a (i.e restlessness in grief) and weeping is Makruh except for Jaz'a and weeping on al-Husyan (عليه السلام)." - Amali of At-Tusi.

Exactly. Thanks for asking, I'm doing well. Quite busy in my personal life. Many sunni leaders and politicians gave statements but that would not be enough. You cannot douse huge fire with a glass of water.

BJP has spread kerosene all over the country and these sons of Abu sufyan just lit a match. Just look at their faces, disgusting.

We can help with our tongue and heart. Pray for the safety of مؤمنين Curse for the ظالمين Praying for early reappearance of our امام (عج)

Followers of عمر killed followers of علي (عليه السلام). May Imam (عجّل الله تعالى فرجه الشريف) reappear and destroy the root of evil.

There isn't anything as such in shia fiqh. Wear the color you like.

There are different flavors to the unity. If you say that you are living in a society with different sects so behave nicely. That's fine. But when you start compromising on your beliefs then that would be a problem. That is not unity but surrendering to other sects due to inferiority complex and this is the most common form of unity propagated by some shi'as today. For eg. One guy with an amamah on his head says from Minbar, let us open our fast 5 mins early with sunnis to strengthen unity with them. This would not be an issue to sunnis but it will definitely break our fast (haraam and kafarrah). Some other people think we should not do Tabarrah either publicly or privately. We should be proud to be a Shi'a and not the one who surrenders to them along with our beliefs. Please quote the ayah. What do you mean by comprehensive unity? There are some other points like Tabarrah doesn't involve cursing and tabbarah puts other shi'as in danger that I disagree but I'm not discussing as it would open too many topic for discussion at once.

Also, people are forgetting their deen, literature and Ahlulbayt (عليهم اسلام) for the so-called unity which is never possible to achieve. Followers of Omar killed shi'as yesterday and they will kill you today, no matter you curse or not. So it is better that movie should be used for propagating the haqq. The idea is very good.

I'm not supporting or opposing the movie in any post. I just pointed out that you are trying to portray as if Sayed Ali Sistani forbade to watch Lady of heaven, which he hasn't till now. Don't beat around the bush, if you have specific fatwa then post otherwise don't attribute something to him he hasn't said.

Alaikas Salaam, Conjecture again. You don't have any fatwa specific to movie 'Lady of heaven' from Sayed Ali Sistani.

Not 100 percent sure but Banu Tameem were black people. If it is true then Abu Bakr should be depicted as he was.
