Imam Husayn (a) is an emblem of kindness. What a rock hard foundation of Love and Kindness he has built. Are we rocks of kindness in our lives? Rocks when we put them together, become strong walls. Building the world with one act of kindness after another is sure to make a strong wall. So go on, build a rock strong wall of kindness. Lets not allow any unkindest through. Lets be like our Imam Husayn (a). The kindest of men. Lets LIVE HUSAYN!
Your memory ayah from the Quran to guide you in instilling this value is, (Surat ar Rahman, 55:60):
“Is the reward of goodness anything but goodness?”
