Learning Objective:
- To understand how living like Imam Husayn shows in having
beautiful manners that shine brightly to everyone around us.
The names Hassan and Husayn come from the word hasana which means
to be beautiful, to be good. Allah sent us Imams as examples to help us in our
special mission on Earth; to beautify ourselves and everything around us by
filling the world with good in everything we say and do.
By going to mosque and listening to lectures, we learn about the
Qur’an and Ahlulbayt. We are
reminded of what we believe in, and how we should behave everyday. Living like Imam Husayn shows in having beautiful manners that
shine brightly to everyone around us. When
Imam Mahdi (atf) reappears, he will choose helpers who are shining brightest!
