Pearl of Wisdom

'The most evil of places on earth are the marketplaces, for it is Satan's domain where he unfurls his flag first in the morning, takes up his seat and gives free rein to his offspring, from a vendor niggardly with his measure, to one who is reckless with his scale, to one who thieves off metres [from cloth], or to one who lies about his wares to all he says, 'Take advantage of this man whose father [Adam (AS)] has died whilst your own father [Iblis] is still Brushing One's Teeth all.ve.' And he continues to do this from the first one to enter therein to the last one to leave.'

Imam Muhammad ibn Ali al-Baqir [as]
Bihar al-Anwar, v. 84, p. 11, no. 87

Question : #1068 Category: Muharram Related
Subject: saf matam
Question: Salaams,

I would appreciate it if you could let inform me of the meaning of 'saf' matam and where did it originate from. How is it supposed to be done as over here people put their hands on their partners's shoulders while moving one foot forward and one foot backwards and at the same time going around in a circle.

Some youngsters object saying it is more like a dance.

Regards,

Saira
