چکیده:در ایام ماه محرم الحرام ما شیعیان در مجالس عزاداری سرور و سالار شهیدان حضرت اباعبدالله الحسین علیه السلام شرکت می‌کنیم و با سوگواری و نوحه‌سرایی بر مصائب آل الله به آنها توسل می‌جوییم و با ایشان همدردی می‌کنیم. اما سوال اصلی اینجاست که آیا عزاداری و گریستن برسید الشهداء علیه السلام کافی است یا آنکه باید بدنبال هدف بزرگتری از شرکت در این مجالس باشیم. برای پاسخ به این سوال به آیات قرآن، روایات و ادعیه ائمه معصومین علیهم السلام مراجعه خواهیم کرد و با ارائه براهین عقلی و نقلی سعی خواهیم کرد تا اهداف نهضت امام حسین علیه‌ السلام را بهتر بشناسیم و با وظیفه خود در قبال این نهضت انسان‌ساز آشنا گردیم.

Abstract:
During the month of Moharram, we, Shia Muslims, attend mourning ceremonies of Imam Hossein (PBUH) and by commemorating and lamentation on the hardships they endured, we seek to sympathize with them. However, the main question is to know whether the primary goal of attending such events is merely crying over this extreme distress or we should seek something more valuable. In order to answer this question, we will look at the Quran Karim and ahl al-bayt (PBUT) accounts and, by providing intellectual and narrative arguments, we seek to make a better understanding of the objectives of Imam Hossein’s (Peace be upon him) movement and to know our responsibility with regards to this enlightening cause.
