[27] The narrator of the Hadith says: A man from Bayt AI-Maqdis said, ‘” I Swear to Allah -zawj that we, the people of Bayt AI-Maqdis and its suburbs, learned of the killing of Hussain -asws Ibn ‘AIi -asws on the eve of the day on which he -asws was killed.” (Abu Nasr) asked, “How did they learn of it?” He replied: We did not move any rock, stone, or mud without seeing fresh, boiling blood under it. And all of the walls became red like blood.

The skies rained fresh blood for three days and at night we heard a caller crying out the following poem: Does the nation that killed Hussain -asws hope to receive the intercession of his -asws grandfather on the Day of Judgement!? Verily, Allah forbids you to receive the intercession of Ahmad -asws and Abi Turab -asws . You have killed the best of all those who ever rode (a sumpter). You have killed the best of everyone from among the youth to the elderly.

There was a solar eclipse that lasted three days, after which the sky became filled with so many stars (that they were almost colliding with one another). On the next day, we were grief-stricken about the killing of Hussain -asws . Shortly thereafter, we learned the disastrous news of the killing of Hussain -asws .

[28] The Killer of a Masoom -asws is always an Illegitimate: The narrator of the Hadith says: Abu Abd Allah -asws (6 th Imam -asws ) said: The killer of Hussain -asws Ibn ‘Ali -asws was conceived illegitimately and the killer of Yabya ibn Zakariyya -asws was (also) conceived illegitimately.

[29] The narrator of the Hadith says: Abu Abd Allah -asws (6th Imam -asws ) was asked, “Who stopped Fir’awn from killing Musa -as which is referred to in this verse, ‘Fir’awn said , ‘Let me kill Musa’ (40:26)?’ Imam -asws replied, (Fir’awn could not kill Musaas) because he was conceived legitimately. Verily, the Prophets and the Decisive Proofs are only killed by those who are conceived illegitimately and by the children of adulteresses.

[30] Those who did not Cry on the Martydom of Imam Hussain -asws : The narrator of the Hadith says: We heard Abu Abd Allah -asws (6 th Imam -asws ) say: When Hussain -asws Ibn ‘AIi -asws died, everything Allah -zawj has Created cried over him -asws except three things (places): Basra, Damascus, and the family of ‘Uthman. [31] Crying of Heavens on Imam Hussain -asws : The narrator of the Hadith says: Abu Ja’far (Imam Baqir -asws ) said: O Zurarah!
