We see that the opposing force in Karbala comprised Muslims, some of whom were Companions and sons of Companions. In other words, they knew about Imam Husayn and his relation with the Prophet, but still resorted to killing him in cold blood.

What made the Muslims take up arms against the grandson of the Holy Prophet? How can we avoid that vice so we aren't amongst those who oppose the Imam of our time?

In this clip, Sayed Saleh Qazwini talks about the evil that persuaded Muslims to kill Imam Husayn.
