Chapter: Weeping of the Heavens and the Earth over the Killing of Ĥusain (a.s.) and Yaĥyā ibn Zakariyyā (a.s.) َّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ الرَّزَّازُ الْقُرَشِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي ٠َّدُ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ أَبِي الْخَطَّابِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ فَرْقَدٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (ع) قَالَ احْ٠َاءُ حِينَ قُتِلَ الْحُسَيْنُ (ع) سَنَةً وَ يَحْيَى بْنُ زَكَرِيَّا وَ حُ٠ْرَتُهَا بُكَاؤُهَا 7.

Muḥammad ibn Ja’far Al-Razzāz Al-Qurashi narrated to me from Muḥammad ibn Ḥusain ibn Abil Khaťťāb, from Safwān ibn Yaḥyā, from Dāwūd ibn Farqad, who said: Abū ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq (a.s.)) said: The heavens turned red for one year when Ḥusain (a.s.) was killed. The same thing happened when Yaḥyā ibn Zakariyyā (a.s.) was killed. The redness of the heavens is how it weeps.
