We all share that in common. The undying love, the overflowing emotion. The burning sorrow 🖤 Imam Al Hussain (as) inspires us with the same message taught by his grandfather and his family. To worship none but Allah (swt) and give back in service to those around us. He is the Ark of Salvation and we pray to Allah (swt) to never deprive us from His service and from the service of Hussain (as).   On behalf of the entire team at After Maghrib, we send our condolences firstly to Imam Al-Hujjah (ajfs) and to all the Muslim Ummah on the martyrdom of Imam al-Hussain (as), his beloved family and his loyal companions. 🤲🏼
