Abstract

The tragedic event of Ashura is considered as one of the most important and influential events in the Islamic history. Despite the numerous efforts of Ashura scholars, many aspects of this event, including the incidents of the night of Ashura, are still shrouded in ambiguity. The issue of those who left the army of Imam Hossein (PBUH) on the night of Ashura, as well as those who joined them in the last moments, is the focus of the present study. The findings of the study clarify that the separatiin of Imam's companions was in Zobalah's house not on the night of Ashura. According to the reliable reports and narrations, it can be concluded that the companions of Imam, despite all the dangers, remained before Imam and were martyred on the day of event. Moreover, the historical reports illustrate that despite the existing difference of opinions on the night of Ashura, people from Kufa or from the army of Umar ibn Sa'd also joined Imam and were martyred.

دراسة ونقد تقاریر انفصال الأشخاص وانضمامهم إلى الإمام الحسین7 فی لیلة عاشوراء

Abstract [العربیة]

یعتبر حدث عاشوراء من أهم الأحداث وأکثرها تأثیراً فی تاریخ الإسلام. وعلى الرغم من الجهود العدیدة التی بذلها الباحثون فی قضیة عاشوراء،إلا أن جوانب کثیرة من هذا الحدث، بما فی ذلک أحداث لیلة عاشوراء، لا تزال غامضة.إن موضوع الذین انفصلوا عن جیش الإمام الحسین لیلة عاشوراء، وکذلک الذین انضموا إلیهم فی اللحظات الأخیرة قبل الحدث، هو محور البحث الحالی، والذی تم تناوله بالمنهج الوصفی والتحلیلی.
وتشیر نتائج هذا البحث إلى أن الروایات التاریخیة المتعلقة بانفصال بعض أصحاب الإمام کانت فی منزل «زبالة» ولیس فی لیلة عاشوراء. ویمکن القول وفقاً للتقاریر والروایات الموثوقة: إن أصحابه رغم کل المخاطر لم یترک الإمام لیلة الحادثة واستشهدوا فی یوم عاشوراء. کما تشیر التقاریر التاریخیة إلى أنه على الرغم من خلافات الرأی الموجودة، إلا أنه فی لیلة عاشوراء التحق أشخاص من الکوفة أو من معسکر عمر بن سعد إلى جیش الإمام واستشهدوا بجانبه
