- Azadari is 'Ibadat
- Different forms of Azadari around the World
- Considered a mourning ceremony, a chance to learn, a chance to reform, a chance to be active within the community
- Various forms of 'Aza include the level of the heart and mind, level of the tongue, level of the hand
- People who think other people's forms of 'aza are of a lower level, are themselves experiencing regression
- Respect all the Azadar of Imam Hussain
- Do not degrade them because they do not perform Azadari the same way you do
- It is not about acceptance or rejection, it is about the level of ibadat
- Value of deeds depend on the niyyat
- Motivations could be different depending on the level of a person
- Motivation of fear of God's punishment
- Motivation of desire of God's reward
- Motivation of love of God
- Everything depends on niyyat, it is only God who knows a persons true intentions

"Azadari is different for everyone. For some it's mourning, for others it's an opportunity to learn, or an opportunity to reform, or an opportunity to become an active citizen."

"Everything depends on intentions, and it is only God who knows a person's intentions."
