The "Companions of Imam Hussain" refers to the loyal followers who stood by Imam Hussain during the Battle of Karbala in 680 CE. These individuals, including notable figures like Abbas ibn Ali and Ali Akbar, demonstrated unwavering loyalty and bravery, choosing to defend their beliefs against oppression. Despite being vastly outnumbered, the companions fought valiantly to protect Imam Hussain and his family. Their sacrifices are commemorated annually during the month of Muharram, particularly on Ashura, highlighting their commitment to justice and truth in the face of tyranny.
