IMAM HUSSAIN (AS) was 4 years old when the event of Mubahila took place . The Holy Prophet took Imam Ali (AA) , Sayyida Fatima (SA) , Imam Hasan (AS) and Imam Hussain (AS) to the meeting place to show the world that the five would always come to save Islam , May it be in Mubahila or the desert of Karbala .
( Below is the video of event of Mubahila )
In the event of the blanket ( Kisa ) also the five were present and at that moment ALLAH revealed Ayah Tathir :
" Verily, Verily ALLAH intends but to keep off from you ( every kind of ) uncleanness , O you the people of the house , & purify you ( with) a thorough purification. " ( Surah 33 : verse 33 )And sent his messenger Jibrael to say that the whole of the universe was created in love of these five .
Imam Hussain (AS) was with the Holy Prophet when the following verse of the Holy was revealed at Ghadir khum , while returning from the last Hajj :
"( O MUHAMMAD ) deliver what has been sent down to you from your lord ; and if you do not do it , then , (it will be as if ) you have not delivered his message (at all ) ; and surely ALLAH will protect you from ( the mischief ) of men ; verily ALLAH doesn't guide a disbelieving people ." [ Ma-idah : 67 ]
After receiving this Wahi he declared IMAM ALI (AS) as his successor .
In the 11th year of Hijra when he was seven years old his beloved Grandfather, the Holy Prophet, left the world . Before dying he embraced Imam Hasan (AS) & Imam Hussain (AS) and told them to always pray Salat especially Tahajjud ( an optional after midnight Salat ) and to bear with patience whatever troubles befail them and save Islam .
After the death of the Holy Prophet, Imam Hussain (AS) , as a child , accompanied his mother to seek justice from the ruling party on the matter of Fidak , but they were refused and Fidak was taken away .
During those days he saw his father Imam Ali (AS) being dragged with a rope round his neck by ruling party . Then he witnessed people breaking and setting the door of their house on fire , which fractured his mother's ribs . This injury was the cause of death of Sayyida Fatima (SA) .
It was 3 months after the death of his grandfather, that Imam Hussain (AS) lost his mother . He had loved his mother very much .
