small army led by <a href="/wiki/Husayn_ibn_Ali" title="Husayn ibn Ali">Husayn ibn Ali</a>, the grandson of the Islamic prophet <a href="/wiki/Muhammad" title="Muhammad">Muhammad</a>, at <a href="/wiki/Karbala" title="Karbala">Karbala</a>, <a href="/wiki/Sawad" title="Sawad">Sawad</a> (modern-day southern <a href="/wiki/Iraq" title="Iraq">Iraq</a>). Prior to his death, the Umayyad caliph <a href="/wiki/Mu%27awiya_I" title="Mu'awiya I">Mu'awiya I</a> (<abbr title="reigned">r.</abbr> 661–680) had nominated his son Yazid as his successor. Yazid's nomination was contested by the sons of a few prominent companions of Muhammad, including Husayn, son of the fourth caliph <a href="/wiki/Ali" title="Ali">Ali</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Abd_Allah_ibn_al-Zubayr" title="Abd Allah ibn al-Zubayr">Abd Allah ibn al-Zubayr</a>, son of <a href="/wiki/Zubayr_ibn_al-Awwam" title="Zubayr ibn al-Awwam">Zubayr ibn al-Awwam</a>. Upon Mu'awiya's death in 680, Yazid demanded allegiance from Husayn and other dissidents. Husayn did not give allegiance and traveled to <a href="/wiki/Mecca" title="Mecca">Mecca</a>. The people of <a href="/wiki/Kufa" title="Kufa">Kufa</a>, an Iraqi garrison town and the center of Ali's caliphate, were averse to the <a href="/wiki/Bilad_al-Sham" title="Bilad al-Sham">Syria</a>-based Umayyad caliphs and had a long-standing attachment to the house of Ali. They proposed Husayn overthrow the Umayyads. On Husayn's way to Kufa with a retinue of about 70 men, his caravan was intercepted by a 1,000-strong army of the caliph at some distance from Kufa. He was forced to head north and encamp in the plain of Karbala on 2 October, where a larger Umayyad army of 4,000<a href="#cite_note-fn1-6">[a]</a> arrived soon afterwards. Negotiations failed after the Umayyad governor <a href="/wiki/Ubayd_Allah_ibn_Ziyad" title="Ubayd Allah ibn Ziyad">Ubayd Allah ibn Ziyad</a> refused Husayn safe passage without submitting to his authority, a condition declined by Husayn. Battle ensued on 10 October during which Husayn was killed along with most of his relatives and companions, while his surviving family members were taken prisoner. The battle was the start of the <a href="/wiki/Second_Fitna" title="Second Fitna">Second Fitna</a>, during which the Iraqis organized two separate campaigns to avenge the death of Husayn; the first one by the <a href="/wiki/Tawwabin_uprising" title="Tawwabin uprising">Tawwabin</a> and the other one by <a href="/wiki/Mukhtar_al-Thaqafi" title="Mukhtar al-Thaqafi">Mukhtar al-Thaqafi</a> and his supporters. The Battle of Karbala galvanized the development of the pro-<a href="/wiki/Alids" title="Alids">Alid</a><a href="#cite_note-10">[b]</a> party (Shi'at Ali) into a distinct religious sect with its own rituals and <a href="/wiki/Collective_memory" title="Collective memory">collective memory</a>. It has a central place in <a href="/wiki/Shia_Islam" title="Shia Islam">Shi'a</a> history, tradition, and theology, and has frequently been recounted in <a href="/wiki/Islamic_literature" title="Islamic literature">Shi'a literature</a>. For the Shi'a, Husayn's suffering and death became a symbol of sacrifice in the struggle for right against wrong, and for justice and truth against injustice and falsehood. It also provides the members of the Shi'a faith with a catalog of heroic norms. The <a href="/wiki/Mourning_of_Muharram" title="Mourning of Muharram">battle is commemorated</a> during an annual ten-day period during the Islamic month of Muharram by Shi'a, culminating on tenth day of the month, known as the <a href="/wiki/Ashura" title="Ashura">Day of Ashura</a>. On this day, Shi'a Muslims mourn, hold public processions, organize religious gathering, beat their chests and in some cases <a href="/wiki/Self-flagellation" title="Self-flagellation">self-flagellate</a>. <a href="/wiki/Sunni_Muslim" class="mw-redirect" title="Sunni Muslim">Sunni Muslims</a> likewise regard the incident as a historical tragedy; Husayn and his companions are widely regarded as <a href="/wiki/Martyr" title="Martyr">martyrs</a> by both Sunni and Shi'a Muslims. <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Political_background">Political background</h2></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">See also: <a href="/wiki/Succession_to_Muhammad" title="Succession to Muhammad">Succession to Muhammad</a> and <a href="/wiki/First_Fitna" title="First Fitna">First Fitna</a></div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Arab-Sasanian_coin_issued_by_Yazid_I_ibn_Mu%27awiya_in_the_year_of_the_Battle_of_Karbala.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/ac/Arab-Sasanian_coin_issued_by_Yazid_I_ibn_Mu%27awiya_in_the_year_of_the_Battle_of_Karbala.jpg/220px-Arab-Sasanian_coin_issued_by_Yazid_I_ibn_Mu%27awiya_in_the_year_of_the_Battle_of_Karbala.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="109" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/ac/Arab-Sasanian_coin_issued_by_Yazid_I_ibn_Mu%27awiya_in_the_year_of_the_Battle_of_Karbala.jpg/330px-Arab-Sasanian_coin_issued_by_Yazid_I_ibn_Mu%27awiya_in_the_year_of_the_Battle_of_Karbala.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/ac/Arab-Sasanian_coin_issued_by_Yazid_I_ibn_Mu%27awiya_in_the_year_of_the_Battle_of_Karbala.jpg/440px-Arab-Sasanian_coin_issued_by_Yazid_I_ibn_Mu%27awiya_in_the_year_of_the_Battle_of_Karbala.jpg 2x" data-file-width="800" data-file-height="397" /></a><figcaption>Coin issued by <a href="/wiki/Yazid_I" title="Yazid I">Yazid I</a> following <a href="/wiki/Sasanian_coinage" title="Sasanian coinage">Sasanian motifs</a>, struck at the <a href="/wiki/Basra" title="Basra">Basra</a> mint, dated AH 61 (AD 680/1), the year in which the Battle of Karbala occurred</figcaption></figure> After the third caliph <a href="/wiki/Uthman" title="Uthman">Uthman</a>'s <a href="/wiki/Assassination_of_Uthman" title="Assassination of Uthman">assassination by rebels</a> in 656, the rebels and the townspeople of <a href="/wiki/Medina" title="Medina">Medina</a> declared <a href="/wiki/Ali" title="Ali">Ali</a>, a cousin and son-in-law of the Islamic prophet <a href="/wiki/Muhammad" title="Muhammad">Muhammad</a>, caliph.

Further on the way, at a place called Tha'labiyya, the small caravan received the news of the execution of Ibn Aqil and the indifference of the people of Kufa.

Hurr responded that he would not allow Husayn to either enter Kufa or go back to Medina, but that he was free to travel anywhere else he wished. Nevertheless, he did not prevent four Kufans from joining Husayn. Husayn's caravan started to move towards Qadisiyya, and Hurr followed them. At Naynawa, Hurr received orders from Ibn Ziyad to force Husayn's caravan to halt in a desolate place without fortifications or water. One of Husayn's companions suggested that they attack Hurr and move to the fortified village of al-Aqr. Husayn refused, stating that he did not want to start the hostilities.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEVaglieri1971609-2">[2]</a> On 2 October 680 (2 Muharram 61 AH), Husayn arrived at <a href="/wiki/Karbala" title="Karbala">Karbala</a>, a desert plain 70 kilometers (43 mi) north of Kufa, and set up camp.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEWellhausen190165-1">[1]</a><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHalm19979-5">[5]</a> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Khema-gah,_Karbala.JPG" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3e/Khema-gah%2C_Karbala.JPG/220px-Khema-gah%2C_Karbala.JPG" decoding="async" width="220" height="165" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3e/Khema-gah%2C_Karbala.JPG/330px-Khema-gah%2C_Karbala.JPG 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3e/Khema-gah%2C_Karbala.JPG/440px-Khema-gah%2C_Karbala.JPG 2x" data-file-width="3840" data-file-height="2880" /></a><figcaption>A shrine built at the location of Husayn's camp</figcaption></figure> On the following day, a 4,000-strong Kufan army arrived under the command of <a href="/wiki/Umar_ibn_Sa%27ad" class="mw-redirect" title="Umar ibn Sa'ad">Umar ibn Sa'd</a>.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEWellhausen190165–66-41">[37]</a> He had been appointed governor of <a href="/wiki/Rayy" class="mw-redirect" title="Rayy">Rayy</a> to suppress a local rebellion, but then recalled to confront Husayn. Initially, he was unwilling to fight Husayn, but complied following Ibn Ziyad's threat to revoke his governorship. After negotiations with Husayn, Ibn Sa'd wrote to Ibn Ziyad that Husayn was willing to return. Ibn Ziyad replied that Husayn must surrender or he should be subdued by force,<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEWellhausen190165–66-41">[37]</a> and that to compel him, he and his companions should be denied access to the <a href="/wiki/Euphrates" title="Euphrates">Euphrates</a> river.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEMadelung2004493–498-3">[3]</a> Ibn Sa'd stationed 500 horsemen on the route leading to the river.

According to Madelung, these reports are probably untrue as Husayn at this stage is unlikely to have considered submitting to Yazid. A <a href="/wiki/Mawla" title="Mawla">mawla</a> of Husayn's wife later claimed that Husayn had suggested that he be allowed to leave, so that all parties could allow the fluid political situation to clarify.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEMadelung2004493–498-3">[3]</a> Ibn Sa'd sent the proposal, whatever it was, to Ibn Ziyad, who is reported to have accepted but then persuaded otherwise by <a href="/wiki/Shemr" class="mw-redirect" title="Shemr">Shemr ibn Ziljawshan</a>.

Ibn Sa'd's army fired several volleys of arrows. This was followed by duels<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEVaglieri1971610-44">[40]</a> in which several of Husayn's companions were slain. The right wing of the Kufans, led by Amr ibn al-Hajjaj, attacked Husayn's force, but was repulsed. Hand-to-hand fighting paused and further volleys of arrows were exchanged.

The plan backfired and flames hindered the Umayyad advance for a while. After noon prayers, Husayn's companions were encircled, and almost all of them were killed.

As long as Iraq was in Umayyad hands, the movement remained underground.

Yazid, Madelung argues, wanted to end Husayn's opposition, but as a caliph of Islam could not afford to be seen as publicly responsible and so diverted blame onto Ibn Ziyad by hypocritically cursing him.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEMadelung2004493–498-3">[3]</a> According to Howard, some traditional sources have a tendency to exonerate Yazid at the cost of Ibn Ziyad and lower authorities.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHoward1986131–133-89">[85]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Modern_historical_views_on_motivations_of_Husayn">Modern historical views on motivations of Husayn</h3></div> Wellhausen has described Husayn's revolt as a premature and ill-prepared campaign by an ambitious person.
