This is the short story of Al-Husain Ibn Ali (RA). When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saw Hasan and Husain, he said: "O Allah, I love them, so love them." Husain (RA) and his brother spent the early years of their lives under the shadow of the Prophet (Peace be Upon Him) and their father Ali (RA) who were both exemplary men. Hence from an early age, Hussain was well aware of his duties as a good human being - he used to go to congregational prayers and offer the daily prayers with devotion. Even though Hussain only lived under the care of the Prophet and his exemplary character for only 7 years, he learned lessons that made him into the incredible person and leader that he is remembered as today.
