The Tragedy of Karbala:

Before we start...
The tragedy of Karbala is one of the most painful events ever happened on the face of earth. Considering the criticality of this event for Muslims and its place in Islamic history, it is important to understand the fact that over a period of time, a number of fabrications have made into the history of this event. In order to segregate real facts from suchfiction, in my opinion, we need to take following sequential approach:

1. Level 1: 
Read books of authentic scholars who have written history based on authentic chain of narrations. This has to be done in conjunction with guidance from authentic Islamic scholars to ensure correct understanding. 

2. Level 2: 
The second stage in exploring this historical event correctly is to understand the correct methodology of writing and studying Islamic History (Usool at-Tarikh), which is a very close relative of Usool Al-hadith (science of interpreting hadith and its classifications). In this science, we study the authenticity of narrations in terms of:
  • Who is presenting the narration (Detailed biographies of narrators are available in books of Ilm ul Rijal enlisting their contributions and if they are reliable or not) and 
  • The acceptability of chain of narrations (i.e. if there are any gaps in chain, any missing narrators, any narrators in sequence who did not have an opportunity to meet the proceeding narrator etc. - Ilm ul Asnad). 

Islamic methodology (Usool) for interpreting the hadith and history are our great treasures. Most misconceptions come up ONLY when we do not assess things in the light of this critical branch of knowledge and base it on certain sectarian or emotional beliefs. With even a basic background in Usool-Al-Hadith, seekers of knowledge start seeing things in a much brighter light and many confusions get clarified. I would strongly recommend going through some books from our bookshelf on the topic of Usool al hadith. 

Urdu Readers can make use of a scholarly critique made available to us by مستند اسلامی تاریخ: Click here to read. This review presents critical analysis of books of history and has a section dedicated to history of Karbala.


Jazakallah.

About Yazid:

Yazid is one of the very contested personalities. Most of the scholars of the Sunni traditions (such as Imam Ahmed Ibn Hanbal and others) consider him a partner in the crime of the assassination of Hussain R.A., however, there were numerous other partners too. Imam Ahmed also forbade his son to curse him by name. However, there are others who disagree and consider him free of blame as he did not know what was happening on-ground in Karabala and Kufa; Ibn Ziyad was the governor there. There opinion of him being free of blame is based on a hadith regarding the army that would attack on Qustuntunia and wuold be forgiven. However, other scholars explain that the interpretation of these scholars that the hadith in question is about Yazid is a flawed understanding as there were other attacks before him.

Our perosnal opinion is what Imam Ahmed directed his son towards. Yazid is to be blamed for being partner in the brutalities against the grandson of the Prophe. However, because of various factors, cursing by name is not the way. And Allah knows best.

We have collected a few books below that talk for or against Yazid. We are collecting hwre for reference only.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

It is to be noted that these books do not just deal with the personality of Yazid but also reflect upon the incidents and histroy of Karbala. They also highlight for us the fact that history books, unlike hadith books, never went through a rigorous authentication studies. They are therefore a mixed bag of things causing a lot of division in the ummah.
