Why Imam Hussein (A.S) travel to Iraq?

When it came to Hussein’s knowledge that Yazid had appointed `Amr ibn Sad ibn Alas. As the head of an army, ordering him to take charge of the pilgrimage caravans and to kill Hussein (A.S) wherever he could find him, he decided to leave Mecca before finishing the pilgrimage and be satisfied with performing only the Umra because he hated that the sanctity of the House might otherwise be violated. (The history of Tabari, Vol. 6, p. 177)
