30. Special Favor of Imam Husain (a.s.) to His Mourners

30. ﻋﻨﺎﯾﺖ ﺧﺎص اﻣﺎم ﺣﺴﯿﻦ ﻋﻠﯿﻪ اﻟﺴﻼم ﺑﻪ ﻋﺰاداران

ﻣﺮﺣﻮم آﯾﻪ اﻟﻠّﻪ ﺣﺎج ﺳﯿﺪ ﻣﺤﻤﺪ ﮐﺎﻇﻢ ﻗﺰوﯾﻨﯽ، از ﯾﮏ ﭘﺰﺷﮏ ﻋﺮاﻗﯽ ﻣﻘﯿﻢ ﮐﺮﺑﻼ ﻧﻘﻞ ﻓﺮﻣﻮد ﮐﻪ در ﮐﺮﺑﻼ ﻣﻄﺐ داﺷﺖ، و ﻣﻄﺐّ او ﻣﺘّﺼﻞ ﺑﻪ ﺧﺎﻧﻪ اش ﺑﻮد و راه ورود ﻣﻨﺰﻟﺶ از داﺧﻞ ﻣﻄﺐ ﺑﻮد.

او ﻫﻤﻪ ﺳﺎﻟﻪ ﻣﻌﺠﻮﻧﯽ درﺳﺖ ﻣﯽ ﮐﺮد و آن را ﺑﻪ ﺳﺮِ ﻋﺰاداران ﻣﯽ زد ﺗﺎ در ﺑﻬﺒﻮدي ﺟﺮاﺣﺘﺸﺎن ﻣﻮءﺛّﺮ ﺑﺎﺷﺪ. ﯾﮏ ﺳﺎل در اﯾّﺎم ﻋﺎﺷﻮرا ﺑﻪ ﺷﺪّت ﻣﺮﯾﺾ ﻣﯽ ﺷﻮد و در ﻣﻨﺰل ﺑﺴﺘﺮي ﻣﯽ ﺷﻮد.

روز ﻋﺎﺷﻮرا ﺑﻪ ﯾﮑﯽ از دوﺳﺘﺎﻧﺶ ﺗﻠﻔﻦ ﻣﯽ ﮐﻨﺪ ﮐﻪ اﯾﻦ ﻣﻌﺠﻮن را او ﺑﺒﺮد و ﺑﺮ ﺳﺮ ﻋﺰاداران ﺑﻤﺎﻟﺪ. ﺑﻪ ﻫﻤﺴﺮش ﻣﯽ ﮔﻮﯾﺪ ﮐﻪ در ﻣﻄﺐ ﯾﮏﻇﺮف ﭘﻨﺞ ﻟﯿﺘﺮي ﻫﺴﺖ، آن را ﺑﻪ آن ﺷﺨﺺ ﺑﺪﻫﺪ.

آن ﺷﺨﺺ ﻣﯽ آﯾﺪ و آن ﻣﻌﺠﻮن را ﻣﯽ ﮔﯿﺮد و ﺑﺮ ﺳﺮ ﻋﺰاداران ﻣﯽ ﻣﺎﻟﺪ.

ﻃﺮف ﻋﺼﺮ ﺗﺎ ﺣﺪّي ﺑﻬﺒﻮدي ﺣﺎﺻﻞ ﻣﯽ ﮐﻨﺪ و ﺑﺎ ﺗﮑﯿﻪ ﺑﻪ ﻋﺼﺎ ﺑﻪ ﺳﻮي ﺣﺮم ﺣﻀﺮت ﺳﯿّﺪاﻟﺸّﻬﺪا ﻋﻠﯿﻪ اﻟﺴﻼم ﻋﺰﯾﻤﺖ ﻣﯽ ﮐﻨﺪ. وﻗﺘﯽ از ﻣﻄﺐ ﻋﺒﻮر ﻣﯽ ﮐﻨﺪ، ﻣﯽ ﺑﯿﻨﺪ ﮐﻪ آن ﻣﻌﺠﻮن ﺑﺮ ﺳﺮ ﺟﺎﯾﺶ ﻫﺴﺖ.

از ﻫﻤﺴﺮش ﻣﯽ ﭘﺮﺳﺪ: ﻣﮕﺮ اﯾﻦ ﻇﺮف را ﺑﻪ آن ﺷﺨﺺ ﻧﺪادي؟ ﻣﯽ ﮔﻮﯾﺪ: ﭼﺮا؟ ﻣﯽ ﮔﻮﯾﺪ: اﯾﻦ ﻇﺮف ﮐﻪ ﺳﺮِ ﺟﺎﯾﺶ ﻫﺴﺖ. ﻫﻤﺴﺮش ﻣﯽ ﮔﻮﯾﺪ: آن ﻇﺮف ﮐﻪ در اﯾﻦ ﻃﺎﻗﭽﻪ ﺑﻮد ﻣﻦ ﺑﻪ او دادم.

ﯾﮏ ﻣﺮﺗﺒﻪ ﻓﺮﯾﺎد ﻣﯽ ﮐﺸﺪ: اي واي! آن ﺗﯿﺰاب ﺑﻮد.

از ﺷﺪّت ﻧﺎراﺣﺘﯽ زاﻧﻮﻫﺎﯾﺶ ﺳـﺴﺖ ﻣﯽ ﺷﻮد و روي زﻣﯿﻦ ﻣﯽ ﻧﺸـﯿﻨﺪ، ﺑﻪ دوﺳـﺘﺶ ﺗﻠﻔﻦ ﻣﯽ زﻧﺪ و ﺑﺎ ﺗﺮس و ﻟﺮز از او ﻣﯽ ﭘﺮﺳﺪ: آن ﻣﻌﺠﻮن را ﭼﻪ ﮐﺮدي؟ ﻣﯽ ﮔﻮﯾـﺪ: ﻃﺒﻖ روال ﺑﺮ ﺳـﺮ ﻋﺰاداران ﻣﺎﻟﯿـﺪم، ﻣﯽ ﭘﺮﺳـﺪ: ﻧﺘﯿﺠﻪ را ﭼﮕﻮﻧﻪ دﯾـﺪي؟ ﻣﯽ ﮔﻮﯾﺪ: ﺑﺴـﯿﺎر ﺧﻮب و ﺳﺮﯾﻊ ﺑﻮد و ﺑﻬﺘﺮ از ﺳﺎل ﻫﺎي ﻗﺒﻞ!!

30. Special Favor of Imam Husain (a.s.) to His Mourners

The late Ayatollah Haj Sayyid Muhammad Kazim Qazwini narrated from an Iraqi doctor residing in Karbala, who had a clinic there. His clinic was connected to his house, and the entrance to his home was through the clinic.

Every year, he would prepare a special ointment and apply it to the heads of mourners of Imam Husain (a.s.), so that it would help heal their wounds (from self-flagellation).

One year, during the days of Ashura, he himself became severely ill and was bedridden at home. On the day of Ashura, he called one of his friends to come and take this ointment and apply it on the mourners’ heads. He told his wife that there was a five-liter container in the clinic, and she should give it to that person.

The friend arrived, took the ointment, and went to apply it to the heads of the mourners.

Toward the afternoon, the doctor himself improved somewhat and, leaning on a cane, set out toward the shrine of Sayyid al-Shuhada (a.s.). As he passed through the clinic, he saw that the ointment container was still in its place.

He asked his wife, “Did you not give that container to the man?”

She said, “Of course I did!”

He said, “But here it is in its place!”

His wife replied, “The container that was on this shelf, I gave to him.”

Suddenly he shouted, “Oh no! That was acid!”

His knees weakened from shock, and he collapsed to the floor. He called his friend in fear and trembling and asked, “What did you do with the ointment?”

The friend replied, “I applied it just like always on the heads of the mourners.”

He asked, “And what happened?”

The friend replied, “It worked very well and even faster than in previous years!”
