Pearl of Wisdom

Shall I tell you who is the toughest and strongest from among you?' They replied, 'Yes, Messenger of Allah, do tell us', so The Prophet (SAWA) said, 'The strongest and toughest of you is he who, when he is happy, his happiness does not lead him to committing a sin or anything wrong, and when he gets angry, his anger does not prevent him from speaking the truth, and when he is empowered in any way, he does not take hold of that which is not lawfully his.'

Prophet Muhammad al-Mustafa [sawa]
Ma'ani al-Akhbar, p. 366, no. 1

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
