10. And two days away from Kufa, Hussain (RA) along with his family the people of Kufa opposed his claims.  At a point near Euphrates river, Hussain (RA) and his family stopped bu Yazid’s army and restricted their reach to get the water.

12. Ibn Ziyad also urged Umar ibn Sa’ad reached the Karbala along with his Army on the Muharram 3, 61 AH.

13. Ibn Ziyad sent a brief letter to Umar ibn Sa’ad that states that do not let Hussain (RA) and his family drink a single drop of water and commanded 5,000 horsemen near Euphrates river.

15. A night before, Hussain (RA) gathered all the people of his family and asked them to leave in the middle of the night. But all of them refused to go back, but decided to stay with Hussain (RA), SUBHANALLAH!

16. Muharram 10th also called Ashura. When Abbas Ibn Ali (RA) went to take water from Euphrates river for Sakina (RA) he was martyred, his martyrdom broke the heart of Hussain (RA) so bad. Hussain (RA) also lost so many people of his family including an infant child.
