Editing Al-Lohoof ala Ghatli al-Tofoof (section)

== Abstract of the book ==
Ibn Tawoos has put al-Lohoof in four parts. The book begins with the author’s introduction about the significance and value of mourning and crying for Imam Husayn. He mentions a saying from Imam Sadiq in this regard: "anyone who has his eyes full of tears while remembering us, even if the tear is as tiny as a fly's wing, then God will forgive all his sins; even if his sins are as big as the sea."<ref>[http://opac.nlai.ir/opac-prod/search/briefListSearch.do?command=FULL_VIEW&id=611663&pageStatus=1&sortKeyValue1=sortkey_title&sortKeyValue2=sortkey_author Ibn Tawoos, al-Lohoof ala Ghatli, page 10, 11]</ref>

The first chapter (Maslak) of al-Lohoof mentions the things that took place before the battle of Karbala. In this part, describing the significance of the [[battle of Karbala]] and Imam Husayn’s martyrdom, ibn Tawoos writes: Hadith narrators said: a year after Husayn’s birth, twelve angles came to the [[Prophet Muhammad|Prophet]] and said: "Ya Muhammad Husayn, Fatemeh’s son, will receive what Cain received from Abel."<ref>[http://opac.nlai.ir/opac-prod/search/briefListSearch.do?command=FULL_VIEW&id=611663&pageStatus=1&sortKeyValue1=sortkey_title&sortKeyValue2=sortkey_author Ibn Tawoos, al-Lohoof ala Ghatli, page 15, 16]</ref>
