- Hadith from the 11th Imam regarding 7 ways to become a better person
- The meaning behind Eid-e-Zahra
- The events of this day 5 years after Karbala
- Discussing Yazidi sympathizers like Ibn Taymiyyah and al-Ghazāli who try to deflate the blame of Karbala from Yazid and quote a statement of Yazid that it is all the doing of Ibn Ziyād. 
- However many sensible Sunni historians, including Dr. Ṭaha Ḥusayn (in his al-Fitnatu ’l-Kubra), have rejected Yazid’s apparent regret
- They say that if he was sincere in what he said about Ibn Ziyād, then why didn’t he reprimand him or punish him or fire him from his position or demote him
- This phenomenon of higher ranking personalities blaming mistakes on subordinates is nothing new
- Similar situation in the murder case of Jamal Khashoggi. 
- He was part of the group that supported Muhammad bin Salman’s adventure into Yemen war. 
- When he started talking about the concentration of power by MBS, he became a 'bad guy'. 
- His story ends in his own murder, now the blame is put on those who worked for MBS, Just as Yazid wanted to blame Ibn Ziyad
