قَالَ وَ مَنْ أَفْلَتَ مِنْهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ انْطَلَقَ حَتَّى إِذَا بَلَغُوا حَضْرَمَوْتَ وَ هُوَ وَادٍ دُونَ الْيَمَنِ أَرْسَلَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِمْ سَيْلًا فَغَرَّقَهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ قَالَ وَ مَا رُئِيَ فِي ذَلِكَ الْوَادِي مَاءٌ قَطُّ قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ بِخَمْسَةَ عَشَرَ سَنَةً قَالَ فَلِذَلِكَ سُمِّيَ حَضْرَمَوْتَ حِينَ مَاتُوا فِيهِ. He -asws said: ‘And the ones from among them who escaped on that day went until they reached Hazramaut, and it is a valley in a part of Yemen.
Allah -azwj Sent against them a flood. So, all of them were drowned in it’. He -asws said: ‘And no water had been seen in that valley at all for fifteen years before that’. He -asws said: ‘So that is why it has been named as Hazramaut (death arrived), for that is wherein they died’.
[6] عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ هِشَامٍ الْخُرَاسَانِيِّ عَنِ الْمُفَضَّلِ بْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ كُنْتُ عِنْدَ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عليه السلام) بِالْكُوفَةِ أَيَّامَ قَدِمَ عَلَى أَبِي الْعَبَّاسِ فَلَمَّا انْتَهَيْنَا إِلَى الْكُنَاسَةِ قَالَ هَاهُنَا صُلِبَ عَمِّي زَيْدٌ رَحِمَهُ اللَّهُ ثُمَّ مَضَى حَتَّى انْتَهَى إِلَى طَاقِ الزَّيَّاتِينَ وَ هُوَ آخِرُ السَّرَّاجِينَ فَنَزَلَ وَ قَالَ انْزِلْ فَإِنَّ هَذَا الْمَوْضِعَ كَانَ مَسْجِدَ الْكُوفَةِ الْأَوَّلَ الَّذِي خَطَّهُ آدَمُ (عليه السلام) وَ أَنَا أَكْرَهُ أَنْ أَدْخُلَهُ رَاكِباً قَالَ قُلْتُ فَمَنْ غَيَّرَهُ عَنْ خِطَّتِهِ قَالَ أَمَّا أَوَّلُ ذَلِكَ الطُّوفَانُ فِي زَمَنِ نُوحٍ (عليه السلام) ثُمَّ غَيَّرَهُ أَصْحَابُ كِسْرَى وَ نُعْمَانَ ثُمَّ غَيَّرَهُ بَعْدُ زِيَادُ بْنُ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Mahboub, from Hisham Al-Khurasany, from Al-Mufazzal Bin Umar who said: I was in the presence of Abu Abdullah -asws at Al-Kufa in the days of Ali Bin Al-Abbas.
So when we ended up to Al-Kunasa, he -asws said: ‘Over there is where they crucified my -asws uncle Zayd, may Allah -azwj have Mercy upon him’. Then we went until we ended up at the (market) stall of the oilmen, and it was at the end of the two lamps. So he -asws descended and said: ‘Descend, for this is the place where the Masjid Al-Kufa used to be at first which Adam -as had marked, and I -asws do not like that I -asws should enter it riding’.
I said, ‘So who was the other one who had marked it?’ He -asws said: ‘As for the first one, that was the storm during the era of Noah -as . Then others from the companions of Chosroe and Nu’man, and thereafter Ziyad Bin Abu Sufyan’.
