Then Bibi Zainab said.....First, Yazid should provide a house so that we may hold mourning majlis for the martyrs in Damishq. We shall then go to Madina via Karbala’ Yazid who after some hesitation agreed. In asking for a house to mourn the martyrs in Damishq, Bibi Zainab scored a major victory over Yazid. When the house was made available the Khawatin held Aza’ al- Husayn for seven days in the very city which was the capital of Yazid. Bibi Zainab and the other Saidaniat would tell them of how the martyrs had been killed, how they had been denied water, how young children had been crying al-atash, how Imaam had taken Ali Asghar and pleaded for a few drops of water and how the baby had been slain. the women of shaam would break into sobs and begin wailing and beating their chests. Thus in the very house of the murderer Bibi Zainab laid the foundation of Aza’ al-Husayn. This is so much like the story of Hazrat Musa (A.S.). He nourished in palace of Firaun These majlises have continued to this day.
