The Sermon of Ali ibn Husayn in Damascus (Arabic: خُطْبَة عَلِيّ ٱبْن ٱلْحُسَيْن فِي ٱلشَّام) are the statements of Ali ibn Husayn in the presence of Umayyad caliph Yazid I. After the Battle of Karbala, the captured family of Muhammad, the Islamic prophet, and the heads of those killed were moved to the Levant by the forces of Yazid. By order of Yazid, a pulpit was prepared, and a public speaker gave a lecture that placed blame on Ali and Husayn ibn Ali. In reply to the Yazid's speaker, Ali Ibn Husayn introduced himself and his descendants. Also, he recounted the events leading to the death of Husayn ibn Ali.[1]
