“My admiration for the noble sacrifice of Imam Husein as a martyr abides because he accepted death and the torture of thirst for himself, for his sons and for his whole family but did not submit to unjust authorities. My belief is that the rise of Islam is not due to the sword of its followers but to the sacrifices of it Followers.”  - Gandhi
