Imam was demanded to pay his allegiance to a corrupt ruler, Imam refused and said “A man like me can never give allegiance to a man like him” and left to Kufa with his family and companions as he did not want bloodshed in the holy cities of Makkah and Madinah.
On the way to Kufa his family and companions were forced to stop by a large army which stopped water supply and brutally killed Imam Hussain’s (ع) his family and companions. Imam sacrificed everything, including his life, his family to safeguard Islam and stood by his values and principles till his martyrdom.

قُلْ لَّاۤ اَسۡـَٔـــلُـكُمۡ عَلَيۡهِ اَجۡرًا اِلَّا الۡمَوَدَّةَ فِى الۡقُرۡبٰىؕ "Allah says in the Holy Quran (O Messenger!) inform your people that you do not expect any remuneration for your Prophet hood except that you should love your near relatives".(Surah Shura 42:23).

According to the al-Khoei Foundation, an estimated 22 million pilgrims are expected to attended in 2016, this is a 10 percent increase on last year, when 20 million pilgrims reached Karbala for the ceremony.
