Tawwabin

4. Ideological Foundations

The Tawwabin were not merely a group of disgruntled individuals; their ideology was heavily influenced by the principles of justice, equality, and moral integrity espoused by the teachings of the Imams. They viewed their struggle as not just a penance but as a continuation of the mission of Imam Hussein to stand against tyranny and oppression. The belief in the necessity of standing against injustice, regardless of the consequences, underpinned their resolve and actions.
