May you enjoy the sweet nectar of martyrdom

O martyred father of the Ummah! May you enjoy the sweet nectar of martyrdom, which you yearned for all your life. May the robe of martyrdom be a blessing upon you – with a body that bears the marks of your mother, the pure Fatimah Zahra, and your ancestors, Abu Abdillah al-Hussain and Abulfazl al-Abbas (peace and blessings be upon them).
