Commemorating the blood of martyrs of Karbala

Sometimes the sufferings and efforts made to commemorate the blood of a martyr are no less than martyrdom itself. Such are the thirty years of suffering of Imam Sajjad (pbuh) and the years of suffering of Zainab Al-Kubra (pbuh). They suffered to be able to keep alive the memory of this blood.
