The Martyrdom of Imam Hassan al-Askari (p)

Monday, November 27th, 2017 marks the martyrdom anniversary of
Imam Hassan al-Askari (p), 8th Rabi al-Awwal, 1439, A.H.

When Imam Hassan al-Askari (p) was imprisoned under the control of Salih ibn Wasif, the Abbasids, Salih ibn Ali, and other deviants all came to Salih ibn Wasif asking him to exert more pressure on the Imam Hassan al-Askari (p).

Salih ibn Wasif replied, ‘What more can I do with him when I have assigned two of the most ruthless men I could find to guard him, and surprisingly those two have turned toward worship and prayers [after becoming captivated by the Imam]!”

(Al-kafi, vol. 1)

I.M.A.M. offers its sincere condolences to the Imam (p) of our time, the jurists, scholars, and students of the Islamic seminaries, and all believers on the martyrdom anniversary of Imam Hassan al-Askari (p).
