Translator's Note:
It is a great honour to be asked to translate the
tale of the martyrdom of Imam Hussain (a.s.) into English. However,
in undertaking the task, I was faced with the problem of translating
the Arabic poetry which normally accompanies the account of Imam
Hussain's martyrdom and which may lose its meaning in the process.
To circumvent this difficulty, I resorted to English poetry from the
book "Sunshine at Midnight, the Kerbala Epic"
written by the late Sayyid Ali Mahdi, an eloquent poet and writer.
Thus the reader will notice befitting passages of his poetry
adorning the translation throughout.
