Tahghigh Darbare Rooz-e- Arbaʽeen-e- Hazrat Sayyid al-Shuhada: Difference between revisions

To better understand the basis of Qazi Tabatabai's argument about the possibility of the presence of the caravan of captives in Karbala in the twentieth month of Safar (the first Arba’een), it is appropriate to review an example of his most common reason in the book "Aval Arba’een". The reason for this is to provide examples of the speed at which a caravan, individuals and groups move from one point to a very distant point, in a short period of time.

Despite the great efforts of Qazi Tabatabai, some scholars believe that his  arguments about the first Arba’een were not very strong. On the other hand, his reasons did not appear in earlier books before the seventh century AH, and even great scholars such as Sheikh Mufid and Sheikh Tusi did not mention those reasons. These are also considered as reasons for the weakness of his arguments.
