"Baghdad is the capital of Iraq and the second-largest city in the Arab world after Cairo. It is
located on the Tigris near the ruins of the ancient Akkadian city of Babylon and the Sassanid
Persian capital of Ctesiphon. In 762 CE, Baghdad was chosen as the capital of the Abbasid
Caliphate, and became its most notable major development project. Within a short time,
the city evolved into a significant cultural, commercial, and intellectual center of the Muslim
world. This, in addition to housing several key academic institutions, including the House of
Wisdom, as well as a multiethnic and multi-religious environment, garnered it a worldwide
reputation as the "Center of Learning".
Baghdad was the largest city in the world for much of the Abbasid era during the Islamic
Golden Age, peaking at a population of more than a million. The city was largely destroyed
at the hands of the Mongol Empire in 1258, resulting in a decline that would linger through
many centuries due to frequent plagues and multiple successive empires. With the
recognition of Iraq as an independent state (formerly the British Mandate of Mesopotamia)
in 1932, Baghdad gradually regained some of its former prominence as a significant center
of Arab culture, with a population variously estimated at 6 or over 7 million. Compared to its
large population, it has a small area at just 673 square kilometers."
Karbala is one of the holiest cities in Islam. In the Battle of Karbala, the Prophet
Muhammad's saw grandson Imam Husayn was Martyred. To pay respects to the martyr
Imam Husayn and 72 Other Shohdas, Muslims from all around the world visit Karbala, every
year.

"Aun and Muhammad were the sons of Bibi Zainab. They had not accompanied Bibi Zainab
when she left Madina with Imam Husayn (A.S.) Just before Imam Husayn started his journey
from Mecca, Hazrat Abdullah ibn Ja’far brought his two sons to Mecca and handing them
over to Imam Husayn said, “Ya Imam, since you have decided to go and will not allow me to
come with you, please take my two sons with you. Aun will represent his maternal
grandfather Hazrat Ali (A.S.) and the other will represent his paternal grandfather Hazrat
Ja’far al-Tayyaar.” Aun and Muhammad were quite young. It is reported that Aun was about
thirteen and Muhammad was a year or two younger. They had learnt the art of fencing from
their uncle, Hazrat Abbas.
On the night before Ashura Bibi Zainab said to them, “My sons, tomorrow there will be a
battle. I can not ask you to fight because you are young. But if anything happens to Imam
Husayn, while you are still alive, I will be filled with shame.” Both the boys stood up and said
“Mother, we have the blood of Ali and Ja’far in our veins. Our grand fathers were warriors
whose fame will always be remembered"
6. CITY :: MADAAEN
About City :: Al-Mada'in is an ancient metropolis on the Tigris River which lay between the
ancient royal centers of Ctesiphon and Seleucia. It was founded during Sasanian rule, and
was used as a synonym for Ctesiphon by the Arabs, and later by the Muslims.
"Harut and Marut are two angels mentioned in Quran 2:102, who are said to have been
located in Babylon. According to some narratives, those two angels were in the time of Idris.
The Quran indicates that they were a trial for the people and through them the people were
tested with sorcery.
Babylon was the capital city of the ancient Babylonian Empire, which itself is a term
referring to either of two separate empires in the Mesopotamian area in antiquity. These
two empires achieved regional dominance between the 19th and 15th centuries BC, and
again between the 7th and 6th centuries BC. The city, built along both banks of the
Euphrates river, had steep embankments to contain the river's seasonal floods. The earliest
known mention of Babylon as a small town appears on a clay tablet from the reign of Sargon
of Akkad (2334–2279 BC) of the Akkadian Empire. The site of the ancient city lies just south
of present-day Baghdad. The last known record of habitation of the town dates from the
10th century AD, when it was referred to as the small village of Babel.
