  • Crying Yes Or Not?
    Sep 12 2023

    Crying Yes Or Not? Humans cry and shed tears during their life because of various events such as grief over the loss of loved ones or sometimes even because of extreme happiness. Of course, many of us often try to suppress our crying, because we consider shedding tears, especially in the presence of others as a sign of weakness or embarrassment.

    But contrary to popular belief, researchers from two reputable medical sites, " Medical News Today " and "National Library of Medicine ", have found that crying has many health benefits:

    Improve vision:

    Crying helps to keep the eyes moist and prevent the drying of the mucous membranes and thus better vision by maintaining the lubricating effect of the basic tears that are released with each blink

    Fight against bacteria

    Crying also, has a very strong antimicrobial liquid in tears called lysozyme, in addition to killing bacteria and keeping the eyes clean, can also reduce the risks caused by bioterror agents such as anthrax

    Has a soothing effect

    According to psychologists' studies, crying helps people to reduce their discomfort and relax by activating the parasympathetic nervous system (PNS).

    Helps to relieve pain

    The tears produced by crying by releasing two chemicals, oxytocin, and endorphin, which help people to reduce physical and mental pain and feel good.

    Gets support from others

    In addition, crying due to the stimulation of emotions also brings comfort and support to people around

    In the religion of Islam, crying and tears, in addition to physical benefits, also have a special spiritual value, to the extent that not crying and dry eyes are considered signs of misery for people.

    Therefore, every year many Muslims around the world and even some followers of other religions hold a mourning ceremony on the anniversary of the martyrdom of the beloved grandson of the Messenger of God (PBUH), Hazrat Imam Hussain (PBUH). By holding a mourning ceremony, while crying over the oppression of this Imam and keeping his name and path alive, they also benefit from its spiritual and afterlife effects.

    Happiness on doomsdaythe Prophet Mohamad said: O Fatima! All eyes will cry on the doomsday, except the one that will cry over the misfortunes of Hussain.

    Unlimited rewards

    Imam Sadiq (a.s.) the sixth imam of the Shia  also pointed to the limitless reward of crying and tears and said:

     Every good deed has a definite reward except shedding tears for us Ahl al-Bayt (which is immeasurable).

    Also, there are other works such as the forgiveness of sins, entering heaven, and asking for the Imam's forgiveness for the one who cries, including the spiritual benefits of crying and tears on the oppression of the Ahl al-Bayt, especially Imam Hussain (AS), which are all taken from the hadiths of religious leaders and show The subject of crying and tears is of special importance in Islam.

  • The value of women & girls in the Islamic culture
    Sep 12 2023

    Women and girls have a special place in the culture of Ahl al-Bayt, peace be upon them, which is rooted in revelation and divine word (Qur'an). The beautiful and long expressions used for girls indicate this. In the sayings of the Holy Prophets, peace be upon them, girls are mentioned with words such as: Rehana (flower), Qwarir (crystals), and Hasna (goodness); each of which shows the special natural and spiritual characteristics of girls.

    It was narrated from the Messenger of God

    Be gentle with the ladies, or treat the crystals well. The Prophet used the word crystal for girls.

    Imam Sadiq (the sixth Shiite imam) said:

     

        Daughters are virtues and sons are blessings, so good deeds are rewarded and blessings are asked. Means that: Therefore, God asks fathers for their male children on doomsday, but God is not too strict and does not ask questions for their daughters long.

    The Prophet, gave good tidings to his daughter, and he looked at the faces of his companions and saw that they disliked this behavior. The Prophet said: Why are you looking at me like that? A girl is like a basil that I smell. And her sustenance is in the hands of God
