Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books The Life of Imam Al-hasan Al-mujtaba Chapter Xxiv : Mu’awiya Violates the Stipulations of the Peacemaking Part 2 If the Kufans had prevented the Umayyad authorities from killing Hijr and his companions, the Umayyads would not have been able to kill their free, good ones.
But, they were satisfied with inactivity and abasement and they disliked the death in the way of Allah, so their affair was low and they became humble, and the Umayyads did to them what they wanted such as subjugating them to abasement and humiliation. Al-Rabee‘ remained astonished and weak. Sorrow tore his heart. On Friday he led the people in Friday Prayer. After he had finished the prayer, he addressed the people, saying: “O people, I am tired of life.

He said to his people from Kinda who were with him: “Do you not see that we fight on behalf of Quraysh and sacrifice our lives to make firm their authority while they attack and kill our cousins?” Indeed the murder of Hijr was among the grave incidents, a crack in Islam, and an affliction against all the Arabs.
Mu’awiya himself had no doubt about that. He regarded him as a fearful person. He mentioned him frequently during his privacy. He remembered him very much during his illness of which [^1] Al-Kamil, vol. 3, p. 195. [^2] We have fully mentioned his speech along with his biography in the chapters of the book.
