Sheikh Zakzaky explained how the infants was killed while in the arms of his father Imam Husain9alaihis salam) when the Imam pleaded for water. The fact that Imaam took with him a newly born baby further demonstrates the that his intention was never to engage in any armed rebellion. At Karbala Asghar was only six months old.
