Husayn ibn Ali became the Imam of Shia after the death of his older brother, Hasan, in AD 670 (AH 50). His father's supporters in Kufah gave their allegiance to him. However, he told them he was still bound to the peace treaty between Hasan and Muawiyah I and they should wait until Muawiyah's death. Later, Husain did not accept the request of Muawiyah for the succession of his son, Yazid I, and considered this action a breach of the Hasan–Muawiya treaty.When Muawiyah died in 680 AD, Husayn refused to pledge allegiance to Yazid, who had just been appointed as Umayyad caliph by Muawiyah. He insisted on his legitimacy based on his own special position as a direct descendant of Muhammad and his legitimate legatees. As a consequence, he left Medina, his home town, to take refuge in Mecca in AH 60.There, the people of Kufah sent letters to him, asking his help and pledging their allegiance to him. So he traveled towards Kufah,[8] but, at a place near it known as Karbala, his caravan was intercepted by Yazid's army. He was killed and beheaded in the Battle of Karbala’ on 10 October 680 (10th of Muḥarram (Arabic: مُـحَـرَّم), 61 AH) by Shimr Ibn Thil-Jawshan, along with most of his family and companions, including Husayn's six month old son, Ali al-Asghar, with the women and children taken as prisoners.[8][10] Anger at Husayn's death was turned into a rallying cry that helped undermine the Umayyad caliphate's legitimacy, and ultimately overthrow it by the Abbasid Revolution. Husayn is highly regarded by Shi'ite Muslims for refusing to pledge allegiance to Yazid,[13] the Umayyad caliph, because he considered the rule of the Umayyads unjust. The annual memorial for him and his children, family and his companions is the first month in the Islamic calendar, that is Muharram, and the day he was martyred is the Ashura (tenth day of Muharram, a day of mourning for Shi'i Muslims). His action at Karbala fueled the later Shi'ite movements.
معاوية بن أبي سفيان لما مات، وخلفه ابنه يزيد، تخلف الحسين عن مبايعته، ورحل إلى مكة في جماعة من أصحابه، فأقام فيها أشهرا،
ودعاه إلى الكوفة أشياعه فيها، على أن يبايعوه بالخلافة، وكتبوا إليه أنهم في جيش متهيئ للوثوب على الأمويين. فأجابهم، وخرج من مكة مع مواليه ونسائه وذراريه ونحو الثمانين من رجاله. ولما وصل الحسين إلى العراق أرسل أمير الكوفة والبصرة عبيد الله بن زياد جيشاً اعترضه في كربلاء فنشب قتال عنيف أصيب الحسين فيه بجراح شديدة، وسقط عن فرسه، فقطع راسه شمر بن ذي الجوشن، وأرسل رأسه ونساءه وأطفاله إلىدمشق، .
دفن جسده في كربلاء. وبحسب مرويات الشيعة فإنه قد تم دفن رأسه الشريف في كربلاء مع جسده في درب عودة السبايا من الشام، بينما اختلف اهل السنة في الموضع الّذي دفن فيه الرأس فقيل في دمشق، وقيل في كربلاء، مع الجسد، وقيل في مكان آخر، فتعددت المراقد، وتعذرت معرفة مدفنه. كان استشهاده يوم العاشر من محرم سنة 61 هجرية الموافق 10
أكتوبر سنة 680 ميلادية. ويسمى بعاشوراء وقد ظل هذا اليوم يوم حزن وكآبة عند الشيعة
