Abstract
Literature may be regarded as a mirror that reflects historic events,  commingled with literary imagination, hence creating long-lasting effects.  As such,  the epic movement of Imam al-Husayn left its tremendous impressions and effects on Persian literature. From this perspective,  the Ashura-oriented poetic compositions depict such  a profound influence.
