Episode 42 - How to Find the Complete Human

The story of Imam Hussein is not what you think. This episode of RESTART moves beyond the tears and rituals to ask the one forbidden question: If Hussein was a Muslim, why was he brutally killed by an army of pious, praying Muslims in an Islamic empire? The answer is the secret that dismantles 1400 years of religious dogma: Hussein was not a "Muslim" in the institutional sense; he was a Sufi, the living Perfect Human of his era. He was murdered because the living, breathing truth is always a threat to the dead, static religion of the state.

We reveal the political and theological trap set by the government of Yazid, which used the sacred laws of the Hajj pilgrimage to legally declare Hussein an apostate. Discover why his killers were not monsters, but ordinary religious people—the "mosque kids" of their time—who were deluded by their clergy into believing they were defending their faith. The tragedy of Karbala is not just a story from the past. Rumi's law is eternal: "In every era, a saint is standing." This episode is a warning that the test is happening now, and it forces you to ask: who is the Hussein of your time, and are you standing with him, or are you one of the pious followers unknowingly sharpening your sword against him?
