Don’t you -la known that being killed is the norm for us -asws , and the martyrdom is our -asws honour?’ ثُمَّ أَمَرَ ابْنُ زِيَادٍ بِعَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ ع وَ أَهْلِهِ فَحُمِلُوا إِلَى دَارٍ إِلَى جَنْبِ الْمَسْجِدِ الْأَعْظَمِ فَقَالَتْ زَيْنَبُ بِنْتُ عَلِيٍّ- لَا يَدْخُلَنَّ عَلَيْنَا عَرَبِيَّةٌ إِلَّا أُمُّ وَلَدٍ أَوْ مَمْلُوكَةٌ فَإِنَّهُنَّ سُبِينَ وَ قَدْ سُبِينَا Then Ibn Ziyad -la ordered with Ali -asws Bin Al-Husayn -asws and his -asws family members, so they ‑asws were carried to a house by the side of the grand Masjid.
Zainab -asws Bint Ali -asws said: ‘No female Arab should enter upon us -asws except a mother of children, or a slave girl, for they are captives and we -asws have become captives’.
وَ قَالَ ابْنُ نَمَا رُوِّيتُ أَنَّ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ قَالَ شَهِدْتُ عُبَيْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ زِيَادٍ وَ هُوَ يَنْكُتُ بِقَضِيبٍ عَلَى أَسْنَانِ الْحُسَيْنِ وَ يَقُولُ إِنَّهُ كَانَ حَسَنَ الثَّغْرِ فَقُلْتُ أَمَ وَ اللَّهِ لَأَسُوأَنَّكَ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص يُقَبِّلُ مَوْضِعَ قَضِيبِكَ مِنْ فِيهِ And Ibn Nama said, ‘It is reported that Anas Bin Malik (a well-known enemy of Ahl Al-Bayt ‑asws ) said, ‘I witnessed Ubeydullah Bin Ziyad -la and he -la was tapping with a stick upon the teeth of (holy head of) Al-Husayn -asws and saying, ‘He -asws was of excellent teeth!’ I said, ‘Or by Allah ‑azwj , it will worsen you -la !
I have seen Rasool-Allah -saww kiss the place of your -la stick from his -asws mouth’. وَ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ مُعَاذٍ وَ عَمْرِو بْنِ سَهْلٍ أَنَّهُمَا حَضَرَا عُبَيْدَ اللَّهِ يَضْرِبُ بِقَضِيبِهِ أَنْفَ الْحُسَيْنِ وَ عَيْنَيْهِ وَ يَطْعَنُ فِي فَمِهِ فَقَالَ زَيْدُ بْنُ أَرْقَمَ ارْفَعْ قَضِيبَكَ إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهُ وَاضِعاً شَفَتَيْهِ عَلَى مَوْضِعِ قَضِيبِكَ ثُمَّ انْتَحَبَ بَاكِياً And from Saeed Bin Muaz, and Amro Bin Sahl, they were both present with Ubeydullah -la striking with his -la stick the nose of Al-Husayn -asws , and his -asws eyes, and stab in his -asws mouth.
Zayd Bin Arqam said, ‘Raise your -la stick! I have seen Rasool-Allah -saww place his -saww upon the place of your -la stick?’ Then he wailed crying. فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبْكَى اللَّهُ عَيْنَيْكَ عَدُوَّ اللَّهِ لَوْ لَا أَنَّكَ شَيْخٌ قَدْ خَرِفْتَ وَ ذَهَبَ عَقْلُكَ لَضَرَبْتُ عُنُقَكَ He -la said to him, ‘May Allah -azwj Cause your eyes to cry, enemy of Allah -azwj !
