A Loneliest Commander – Episode 1 | Beginning After the Martyrdom of Imam Ali (A.S)
After the martyrdom of Imam Ali (A.S) by Ibn-e-Muljim in Kufa, the leadership of the Muslim community passed to Imam Hasan ibn Ali (A.S). This marked a sensitive and politically complex period in Islamic history. When Muawiya heard that Imam Hasan (A.S) had been acknowledged as Imam and Caliph, he openly refused to accept his authority.
The Persian serial “Tanha Tareen Sardaar” (A Loneliest Commander) begins from this crucial historical moment. The narrative opens in Syria, where Muawiya was exercising power and consolidating his control. During a Fajr prayer in the mosque, he is attacked in an incident that mirrors the earlier attack on Imam Ali (A.S) in Kufa. However, unlike Imam Ali (A.S), Muawiya survives the assault due to immediate intervention by his commanders.
This serial portrays the challenging era faced by Imam Hasan (A.S), often described as a period of loneliness in leadership due to political division, betrayal, and weakening loyalty among followers. The series dramatizes historical events from an Iranian production perspective, and viewers may notice interpretative differences based on historical viewpoints.
