My father narrated to me from Sa’d ibn ‘Abdillāh, from Muḥammad ibn Ḥusain ibn Abil Khaťťāb, from Nasr ibn Muzāḥim, from ‘Abdil Raḥmān ibn Abī Ḥammād, from Abī Laylā Al-Wāsiťi, from ‘Abdillāh ibn Ḥassān Al-Kināni, who said: The Jinn cried over Ḥusain ibn ‘Ali (a.s.) and recited the following poem: How will you respond to the Prophet if he asks you: (O people!) You were the last of the nations.

What did you do to my family, my brothers, and those whom I honoured? Why are they either caught as captives or killed, covered in blood?
