Other famous Shia slogans

  • There is no hero (some versions replace hero with man) except Ali; there is no sword except Zulfiqar - This slogan is very famous among Shia; reported to have originated from Muhammad and is widely engraved on weapons, such as swords. The slogan is frequently preceded by a Shia invocation to Ali and is also “central to the du’a (prayer) of Isma’ilis, who recite it in one breath together with their declaration of faith in God.”
  • Every place is Karbala; every day is Ashura - This slogan is often repeated by Shia. It is attributed to a hadith of the 12th Imam, Muhammad al-Mahdi.
