By: Ismail Zabeeh

HOLY CITY OF SAMARRA, Iraq: Terrorists on Wednesday bombed the holy Askariya shrine in Samarra bringing down the two minarets, in a repeat of a Feb 22, 2006 bombing that shattered its Golden Dome.

Al-Imam Ali Naqi Al-Hadi and Al-Imam Hasan Al-Askari (peace be upon them), 10th and 11th infallible descendants of holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) are buried in the holy Askariya shrine.

According to reports the attack took place at 9 a.m. local time. Bombs were planted in the holy shrine.


On Samarra tragedy: How may the sun shine …?

Forlorn of all hope,
as I write to you,
with the ink of my tears
The notes of sympathy,
how may I express
The grief, the pain, the misery
that has embraced my chest.
With what lyrics can I convey,
the deepest agony that your lover's feel,
as they watch the golden dome,
of your beloved father and grandfather, tearing down?
O Abu Saleh Al Mahdi,
today, how may the sun shine,

 
  "Knowledge is better than wealth because it protects you while you have to guard wealth. it decreases if you keep on spending it but the more you make use of knowledge ,the more it increases . what you get through wealth disappears as soon as wealth disappears but what you achieve through knowledge will remain even after you."MORE ..
