9th Rabi-al-Awwal - Eid-e-Zahra(s.a.). Also known as Eid-e-Shuja.
This
is the day of Eid for Momineen and Mominaat and marks the end of the
mourning period after the events of Karbala. According to Ulema, this is
the day when the key murderers of Imam Hussain (a.s.), Umar
ibn-e-Saad(L.A.) and Ubaidullah ibn-e-Ziyad were killed and sent to the
Hell. When their heads were presented to Imam Zain-ul-Abideen(a.s.) by
the forces of Hazrat Mokhtar-e-Thaqafi (a.r.), Imam(a.s.) prostrated and
thanked Allah (swt) that HE had granted him long enough life that he
could see the heads of the killers of Imam Hussain (a.s.).
This
was the first time since the events of Karbala that the people saw
smile on the face of Imam Zain-al-Abideen (a.s.). Therefore, the
faithfuls of Prophet Mohammad (sawaw) and his Ahl-e-Bait (a.s.) should
celebrate this day as an Eid day. Allah(swt) has reserved great reward
for anyone who declares and celebrates this day as Eid day.
