I thought last year’s juloos too was not well-attended amid security concerns. Oh, how I missed Karachi’s muharram this time

And btw I, too, have no concerns about dying in a juloos.

@karachikhatmal
maybe security reasons?

@KK: Thanks a lot man. My sole purpose is to let people know of the importance of the event of Karbala, things that have long been, and should not be, forgotten. I touch on things that are common in all sects. I feel proud of my religious identity, proud that I can serve the Holy Prophet and his family (S.A.W.W.). For me, there is no greater achievement than this.

And yeah, I think Karachiites got scared this time. Juloos felt a little empty. But it was eventful for me.

Personally I wouldn’t mind dying in a juloos. But my mom would!

@Aamir: Ameen!

May Allah not give us any other reason to cry than Karbala… May Allah bless those who mourn Saadat(as)! (amin)

i had blogrolled you after i saw that you had a widget type thing with quotes from Hazrat Ali on your blog.

since then, i have to enjoy having an articulate voice for Shia thought to read regularly. i was anticipating your Muharram posts with a lot of interest, to see if you would fall into the global Muslim trend of becoming insecure about your religious identity and violently condemning everyone who disagreed with you.

very happy to say that so far the posts have been very thought provoking, and devoid of personal opinion.

on a side note, was it me or was this year’s ashura juloos not really that well attended? any ideas why?
