Congratulations to the believers on the birth anniversary of the 4th divinely appointed Imam, the Zenith of Worshippers, Imam Ali ibn al-Husayn al-Sajjad (A).
Ayatollah Sayyid Ali Khamenei very eloquently describes the suffocating conditions in which Imam Sajjad (A) lived in.
Yet, despite the suffocating and oppressive era in which he lived, which included the event of Ashura and the event of al-Harra, the 4th Imam continued his Islamic socio-political religious duty in the form of two movements.
Imam Sajjad (A) has taught us all that despite the dire conditions, opposing the oppressive and tyrannical government is a must.
