We all returned to our homes tonight but Aba Abdilla, his family and companions will never return home. They will forever be there on the plains of Karbala.

We all mourned Imam Hussain and his family and friends. We cried our hearts out for all these ten days and nights and specially for Shaam-e-ghareeba, but the fact still remains.

We get to go home. They did not.

And it will be like this for all eternity. Tonight Imam Hussain's sacrifice ends and Bibi Zainab's begins. She will be the torchbearer to Imam Hussain's goal and message and ultimately being the core of why we're alive today and believe in Ahlulbayt.

We all returned to our homes, our families, our homes filled with memories, pets, fridges full of food.

And even when Bibi Zainab and the remaining women and children(which were next to nothing by then) do return to their homes, what will they come back to?

Inconsolable grief. Loss beyond measurement. Pain seared into their hearts and souls.
