Mustazafs Society Headquarters also asked the following questions related to the day of Ashura, "So, the 10th of Muharram is a mourning day or is it a new era that includes great lessons? How did we carry Karbala to these days? Did we understand the message that Karbala wanted to give or did we turned Karbala into a ground of conflict-serialism? We can replicate these and similar questions, and ask ourselves. In fact, we must for our future not to be like today."

Do the bloodshed and tears happening in Syria, in Yemen, in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Egypt and in other parts of our geography, not correct it? Karbala should lead resurrection and awaken Muslims from negligence. The blood, shed by Hussein and his family should not be wasted.
At the end of the message, "While the family of Prophet gave up on property, life, and family in order to dominate the right and to establish the justice, the thing falls to us should not be suffocate in the conflicts, or run after desires," the Headquarters at the end of the message.
