Salah (Prayers) . Qur'an . Faith (Iman) . Yazid b. Mu'awiya . Huffaz

We often hear that the army of Yazid had people who prayed regularly and had memorised the Quran. Why did the faith of such people not get corrected since we hear that Namaz is a mentor that corrects faults within us?

Some Muslims pray but with out understanding the message of Prayers and don't obey the Prophet (SAWA), like the Kharijites of that time and ISIS of today.

Real Prayer which purifies us is performed with humble obedience of Allah (SWT) and the Prophet (SAWA) and Ahlul Bayt (AS).

Yazid b. Mu'awiya . Imam Husayn . Poetry

What is the name of the poem that Yazeed recited when he saw the head of Imam Hussain (as) and where can I find it in the Islamic sources?

Tabari mentioned in his famous book of history Tareekh al-Tabari (V. 8, P.187) that Yazeed openly declared his infidelity and denying Islam when he saw the head of Imam Husain (AS) by saying:

لعبت هاشم بالملك فلا. خبرٌ جاء ولا وحيٌ نزل

Hashim family (of the Prophet) played with rule, otherwise, nothing came from God, nor any revelation was sent.

This poem of the cursed Yazeed is narrated in many other Sunni books.

Ibn Muljam . Imam Husayn . Yazid b. Mu'awiya . Predestination

Was it written for Ibn Muljam to kill Imam Ali and Imam Hussain to be killed by the order of Yazid in Karbala since both events were foretold by Prophet Muhammad (s)? Should we believe that a person may die prematurely?

We need first to define the meaning of Premature death. Because no one dies before his time. That does not mean that every death is Natural. Those who are killed have died in their own time of death. Those who died as victims of a crime of killing, died in their own time of death. We differ with some Non-Muslims who claim that there is a Premature death which means as they claim, that a person who is killed has died before his time of death. They Think that the age which is for certain age group is the maturity for death. Anyone dies before that maturity age as they claim has died Prematurely. This is their own opinion which does not come along with what we read in Quran and Authentic Hadeeths. “Wa Ma Kana Le Nafsin An Tamouta Ella Bi ‘ithnillah Kitaaban Mo’ajjala” ( 3:145)– No one dies but only by permission of Allah, according to written time”
The way of dying can be Natural, and can be a Crime, and can be any other way. Time is written by Allah on everyone from us. Prophet Yahya (AS) was killed by a tyrant of His time instigated by a bad woman from Bani Israeel. Allah knew that such crime will happen, but the knowledge of Allah about a Crime which is to take place does not mean that Allah has permitted the killing. Allah (SWT) informed the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him and His Holy Progeny) that His grandson Hussain will be killed in Karbala. Also informed him that Ameerul Mo'mineen Ali (A.S.) will be killed by Ibne Muljim in Kufa. That does not mean that Allah has permitted the Crime at all.

Yazid b. Mu'awiya . Constantinople

I have heard a claim that when Yazeed invaded Constantinople Imam Hasan (AS) and Imam Hussain (AS) fought under his leadership. Is this true?

It is a false story fabricated by Yazeed's admirers.
Yazeed did not invade Constantinople and Imam Hasan and Imam Husain had no relation with such person indulged in major sins.

Who was the real killer of Imam Hussain (as) in Karbala? Was he from the Shia or was he a follower of Yazid?

as salam alaikum

different sources depict Shimr Ibn Dhil-Jawshan and Sinan Ibn Anas as the killers of Husayn, peace be upon him. It is evident that both played a role in the killing although there may be some variations in the details of various reports. Both were fighting along the army of 'Umar Ibn Sa'd, sent by 'Ubaydullah Ibn Zayd, appointed by Yazid Ibn Mu'awiyah.

With prayers for your success.
