Ziarat-e-Nahiya

Click here to listen to this Ziarat

One of the most important sources of the names of these heroes and martyrs is a Ziyarat, taught by the Twelfth Imam(a.s.), known as Ziyarat of Nahiya, which has been copied by all the great authorities in their reliable books. The Ziyarat of Nahiya, as it has come down to us, omits certain names of martyrs, although they are well known for their participation in the holy struggle at Kerbala. This omission may be due to some lapse in memory on the part of the reporters or inaccuracy or inadvertence of copyists.

A translation of the Ziyarat is given below, for those who are not acquainted with Arabic. It is the only Ziyarat which mentions the martyrs of Kerbala by name, and in some cases it also gives the names of those who slew them and throws light upon some of the circumstances of their martyrdom.

You are the son of the Hay Prophet –Peace be upon him and his progeny
and a support for the Holy Quran.

You remained away from the ways of the transgressors.

wa Imkaaneka
Unattached to the world as if you have to leave it soon.
You always viewed the world with dislike.
Your wishes were not worldly.
You were very far from its comforts and embellishments
and aloof from it's pomp.
And it is well-known that your attachment is only with the Hereafter.
Till the time that corruption became audacious and the slight veil lifted from the face of injustice and it summoned its cahoots for support.
Then at that time you were at the sanctuary of your grandfather (Medina)
and absolutely aloof from the unjust people.
You sat in the prayer niche, busy in the prayers.
You were far from the worldly vices and desires.
You protected your heart and the tongue from every evil
and in proportion to your strength and ability you kept your self secure.
Thummaq taz”aakal ilmo lil inkare

Then through your truth-perceptive knowledge you refused (the allegiance to Yazid)
and made it incumbent upon yourself to fight against the transgressors
and the corrupt.
Then you immediately set out in company of your sons,
and family-members,
and followers
and friends.
You called the people to ward’s Allah with truth
and by clear and open arguments.
And by wisdom
and good advice.
Then you ordered the establishment of lawful limits and the obedience of Allah
and restrained people from evil,
prohibited sinful acts.
But the atrocious people oppressed you with injustice and tyranny.
Fajahattahum ba’dal iya’ze lahum

waz”za”rbe
wa t’ah’anta jonuda-l fujjaare
waqtah’amta qast’ala-l ghubaare mujaadelan be d’il fiqaare ka annaka A’lal nil mukhtaare

So you warned them of divine retribution before you made Jehad with them.
And you emphasized to them
and presented a firm argument against them,
but inspite of this they broke every oath and allegiance regarding you.
And they angered your Lord
and your grandfather
and initiated the attack upon you.
So you also became prepared with spear and sword for the battle
and attack.
And you routed the army of transgressors.
And you were surrounded in the dust of the battle
and fighting with Zulfiqar with so much ferocity as if Ali (a.s.) was himself fighting.

Falamma ra awka thaabetal jaashe ghaira khaaefin

wa naajazukal qetala
wa a’jalookan nezaala
wa rashaquka bissehaame

wabasat’u ilayka akuffa-l is’t’elame
So when the enemies saw you to be resolute
and fearless they began to plot
and lay traps for you
and began to fight with you with the cunning and mischief.
And the accursed Umar ibne Saad ordered his cunning army to cut off the water supply.
And all of them unleashed their atrocities towards you.
Walam yara’wlaka d’emaaman

wa nahbehim reh'aalaka
wa’anta muqdamun fil habawaate
wa muh’tamelun lil ad’iyyaate qad a’jabat min s’abreka malaekatus samaawaate
They did not take into consideration their duties with respect to you.
They did not hesitate to slay you and your group of followers.
How great was their sin of plundering your belongings.
You were bearing the tribulations of the battle with so much patience that the angels of the sky were astonished.
Fa ah'daqubeka min kullil jehaate athkhanuka bil jeraah'e

wa aulaadeka
Then the enemies surrounded you from all the sides
and began to give you one injury after another
and made you fatigued.
No helper remained between you and your women and children.
You were still deflecting the crowd of attackers with persistence
and patience away from your women and children.
H'atta nakasuka a’n jawaadeka fahawayta ilal arz”e
jarih’an tat’aukal khoyulo be h’awafereha

Till the time they forced you down from the horse-back. And you descended to the earth, wounded.
The horses were trampling you with their hooves.
The atrocious-army fell upon you with their swords.

The perspiration of death appeared on your forehead
and your hands and feet folded
and unfolded to the right and the left.
You were beholding your wounds and your children too,
when in such a situation you might not have thought of your children
and family due to the severe pain.
At that time your horse galloped towards your camp,
weeping and neighing.
Fallama ra ainan nisaao jawaadaka makhzeyan

When your ladies saw your rider less horse
and the saddle, which had slipped downwards,
they became rest-less and came out of the tents.
Their hair awry, they slapped their own faces
and wailed and lamented.
They were calling their elders and ancestors in a dejected condition after having been so much respected.
They all headed towards the place of your slaughter. What a pity!
Washshimro jaalisun a'la s'adreka

wa sobeya ahloka kal a’beede
wa s’ufedu fil h’adeede
That at that time the accursed Shimr was astride your chest
and was moving his sword upon your neck as he held your hair with his hand.
And was slaughtering you in this way will his sword.
You had become motionless and your breathing was about to stop.
Till the time you were beheaded and your head was raised up on the sword.
And your women were arrested like slaves
and tied up with heavy iron chains
and made to sit on the camels.

Their faces were seared in the heat of the sun during the day.
They were taken around in the desert and wilderness like homeless people.
Their hands were tied to their necks.
In this condition they were made to march in the markets.

Woe be unto those disobedient transgressors who murdered Islam by killing you.
And invalidated the prayers and fasts.
And broke up the (Prophetic) practice and the (Islamic) laws.
And demolished the regulations of faith.
And burnt up the verses of the Quran
and they rushed into transgression and rebellion.
Laqad as'bah'a rasoolollahe s'allallaho a'laihe wa aalehi mauturan waa'ada kitabu"ahe a'zza
wa jalla mahjuran
wa ghuderal haqqo id'qohirta maq hooran.
Certainly the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) became a victim of injustice, because of your death which he could not avenge. A
nd the Book of Allah became heirless.
And your harassment was actually the harassments of truth.

And because you were not anymore,
the calls of Allah-o-Akbar and La-ilaha-illallah lost their essence.
No criteria remained for the distinguishing of the prohibited
and the permitted acts.
Neither the Ouran,
its meaning
and it's exegesis remained.
And after you was the advent of open distortion in Shariat
and the spread of false beliefs,
and the ineffectiveness of Islamic Law.
There was a surge in the selfish desires
and deviations
and there was an advent of corruption,
transgression
and evils.

Thus the pleader came near the grave of your grand-father, the Prophet (Peace be upon him am his progeny)
and pleaded with tears flowing from his eyes he said,
"0 Prophet of Allah! Alas! Your grandson, your children have been massacred.
And Your family and your devotees have been harassed,
and killed.
Your progeny were taken as prisoners after your demise.
And your modest descerdents
and close relatives were put through untold hardships.

Hence the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) became very aggrieved
and his soft heart began to weep.
The angels and the prophets offered condolences to him
with regard to you.
Your respected mother, Zahra (s.a.) was in agony because of your massacre.
Armies after armies of angels arrived to offer their condolences to your respected father Amirul Momineen (a.s.).
and the Maatam started for you in the skies.
Hoories of Paradise slapped their own faces in your grief.
And the sky begun to weep
and so did it’s inhabitants
and the chain of mountains began to cry.
And the sea
and the fishes wept.
And Mecca
and it’s buildings
and Paradise
and it’s young male servants
and Kaaba
and the Maqaam-e-Ibrahim
and “Hill”
and “haram” all began to sob.
