 أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ یَعْقُوبَ بْنِ یَزِیدَ عَنْ زِیَادٍ الْقَنْدِیِّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِی حَمْزَهَ عَنْ عِیصِ بْنِ الْقَاسِمِ قَالَ: ذُکِرَ عِنْدَ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَاتِلُ الْحُسَیْنِ ع فَقَالَ بَعْضُ أَصْحَابِهِ کُنْتُ أَتَمَنَّی أَنْ یَنْتَقِمَ اللَّهُ مِنْهُ فِی الدُّنْیَا قَالَ کَأَنَّکَ تَسْتَقِلُّ لَهُ عَذَابَ اللَّهِ وَ مَا عِنْدَ اللَّهِ أَشَدُّ عَذَاباً وَ أَشَدُّ نَکَالًا مِنْهُ.

1. My father (rah) said: it was narrated to me by Sa’d b. Abdillah from Ya’qub b. Yazid from Ziyad al-Qandi from Muhammad b. Abi Hamzah from Ees b. al-Qasim who said: The discussion of the killer of Imam Husain (a.s.) was going on with Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.). A companion expressed his wish saying that Allah should take revenge from the killer in this world itself. Imam (a.s.) told him, “In this way, you are reducing the punishment of Allah while it is very severe and painful.”

 حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الصَّفَّارُ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِیمَ بْنِ هَاشِمٍ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عِیسَی عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شِمْرٍ عَنْ جَابِرٍ عَنْ أَبِی جَعْفَرٍ ع قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص إِنَّ فِی النَّارِ مَنْزِلَهً لَمْ یَکُنْ یَسْتَحِقُّهَا أَحَدٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ إِلَّا بِقَتْلِ الْحُسَیْنِ بْنِ عَلِیٍّ وَ یَحْیَی بْنِ زَکَرِیَّا ع.

2.  Imam  Muhammad  Baqir  (a.s.)  narrates  that  the  Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) said that there is a place in Hell, for which no one is deserving except the killers of Prophet Yahya bin Zakariya and Imam Husain (a.s.).

 حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِیٍّ مَاجِیلَوَیْهِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ یَحْیَی الْعَطَّارُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحُسَیْنِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِهِ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص إِذَا کَانَ یَوْمُ الْقِیَامَهِ نُصِبَ لِفَاطِمَهَ ع قُبَّهٌ مِنْ نُورٍ وَ أَقْبَلَ الْحُسَیْنُ ع رَأْسُهُ عَلَی یَدِهِ- فَإِذَا رَأَتْهُ شَهَقَتْ شَهْقَهً لَا یَبْقَی فِی الْجَمْعِ مَلَکٌ مُقَرَّبٌ وَ لَا نَبِیٌّ مُرْسَلٌ- وَ لَا عَبْدٌ مُؤْمِنٌ إِلَّا بَکَی لَهَا فَیُمَثِّلُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ رَجُلًا لَهَا فِی أَحْسَنِ صُورَهٍ وَ هُوَ یُخَاصِمُ قَتَلَتَهُ بِلَا رَأْسٍ فَیَجْمَعُ اللَّهُ قَتَلَتَهُ وَ الْمُجَهِّزِینَ عَلَیْهِ وَ مَنْ شَرِکَ فِی قَتْلِهِ فَیَقْتُلُهُمْ حَتَّی أَتَی عَلَی آخِرِهِمْ ثُمَّ یُنْشَرُونَ فَیَقْتُلُهُمْ أَمِیرُ الْمُؤْمِنِینَ ع ثُمَّ یُنْشَرُونَ فَیَقْتُلُهُمُ الْحَسَنُ ع ثُمَّ یُنْشَرُونَ فَیَقْتُلُهُمُ الْحُسَیْنُ ع ثُمَّ یُنْشَرُونَ فَلَا یَبْقَی مِنْ ذُرِّیَّتِنَا أَحَدٌ إِلَّا قَتَلَهُمْ قَتْلَهً فَعِنْدَ ذَلِکَ یَکْشِفُ اللَّهُ الْغَیْظَ وَ یُنْسِی الْحُزْنَ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع رَحِمَ اللَّهُ شِیعَتَنَا- شِیعَتُنَا وَ اللَّهِ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ فَقَدْ وَ اللَّهِ شَرِکُونَا فِی الْمُصِیبَهِ بِطُولِ الْحُزْنِ وَ الْحَسْرَهِ.

3.  Imam  Ja’far  Sadiq  (a.s.)  narrates  that  the  Holy  Prophet (s.a.w.s.) said, “A dome of light will be made for Fatima on the  Day  of  Judgment.  Imam  Husain  (a.s.)  will  enter  that dome carrying his head in his hands. Fatima (s.a.) will start crying  upon seeing  him so much so that entire assembly, angels,  prophets  and  messengers  and  believers  will  wail loudly.  At  that  time  the  Almighty  Allah  will  create  a handsome youth out of that head to fight with the killers of Imam Husain (a.s.). The Almighty Allah will gather all the killers and their supporters. That youth will kill all of them and  they  will  be  brought  back  to  life.  Amirul  Momineen (a.s.) will come and kill all of them and they will again be brought back to life. Imam Hasan (a.s.) will kill all of them and  they  will  be  brought  back  to  life  once  again.  Imam Husain (a.s.) will kill them  all and they  will be  given life again. There will be no person in our progeny who will not give them death. Then the curtain will be moved aside with anger  and  everyone  will  forget  the  sorrow.  May  Allah shower  mercy  on  our  Shias.  By  Allah,  our  Shias  are  true believers for they have grieved with us for a long time in this calamity.”

 حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الصَّفَّارُ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِیلَ بْنِ جَابِرٍ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ سَمِعْتُهُ یَقُولُ الْقَائِمُ وَ اللَّهِ یَقْتُلُ ذَرَارِیَّ قَتَلَهِ الْحُسَیْنِ ع بِفِعَالِ آبَائِهَا.

4.  Imam  Ja’far  Sadiq  (a.s.)  said,  “By  Allah,  Qaim  of  the progeny of Muhammad will kill the progeny of the killers of Imam Husain (a.s.) for the crime of their ancestors.”

 حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُوسَی بْنِ الْمُتَوَکِّلِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ یَحْیَی الْعَطَّارُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ عَنْ یَعْقُوبَ بْنِ زَیْدٍ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ عَنْ رَجُلٍ عَنْ شَرِیکٍ یَرْفَعُهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص إِذَا کَانَ یَوْمُ الْقِیَامَهِ جَاءَتْ فَاطِمَهُ ع فِی لُمَهٍ مِنْ نِسَائِهَا فَیُقَالُ لَهَا ادْخُلِی الْجَنَّهَ فَتَقُولُ لَا أَدْخُلُ حَتَّی أَعْلَمَ مَا صُنِعَ بِوُلْدِی مِنْ بَعْدِی فَیُقَالُ لَهَا انْظُرِی فِی قَلْبِ الْقِیَامَهِ فَتَنْظُرُ إِلَی الْحُسَیْنِ ع قَائِماً وَ لَیْسَ عَلَیْهِ رَأْسٌ فَتَصْرُخُ صَرْخَهً وَ أَصْرُخُ لِصُرَاخِهَا وَ تَصْرُخُ الْمَلَائِکَهُ لِصُرَاخِهَا فَیَغْضَبُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ عِنْدَ ذَلِکَ فَیَأْمُرُ نَاراً یُقَالُ لَهَا هَبْهَبُ قَدْ أُوقِدَ عَلَیْهَا أَلْفَ عَامٍ حَتَّی اسْوَدَّتْ لَا یَدْخُلُهَا رَوْحٌ أَبَداً وَ لَا یَخْرُجُ مِنْهَا غَمٌّ أَبَداً فَیُقَالُ الْتَقِطِی قَتَلَهَ الْحُسَیْنِ وَ حَمَلَهَ الْقُرْآنِ فَتَلْتَقِطُهُمْ فَإِذَا صَارُوا فِی حَوْصَلَتِهَا صَهَلَتْ وَ صَهَلُوا بِهَا وَ شَهَقَتْ وَ شَهَقُوا بِهَا وَ زَفَرَتْ وَ زَفَرُوا بِهَا فَیَنْطِقُونَ بِأَلْسِنَهٍ ذَلْقَهٍ طَلْقَهٍ یَا رَبَّنَا فِیمَا أَوْجَبْتَ لَنَا النَّارَ قَبْلَ عَبَدَهِ الْأَوْثَانِ فَیَأْتِیهِمُ الْجَوَابُ عَنِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَی أَنَّ مَنْ عَلِمَ لَیْسَ کَمَنْ لَا یَعْلَمُ.

5.  The  Holy  Prophet  (s.w)  narrated  that  Fatima  Zahra (a.s) will come surrounded by the women of her family on the Day of Judgment. When asked to enter Paradise, she will say,  “I  will  not  enter  Paradise  until  I  have  seen  how  my daughters were treated after me.” She will be asked to look at    the center of Qiyamat where Imam Husain (a.s.) will be standing  headless.  He  will  utter  a  loud  cry  and  the  Holy Prophet (s.w) himself will start mourning loudly. Angels will start weeping on seeing him and Almighty Allah will be enraged at that time. He will order the fire named Hab-hab (which has burned for a thousand years and had become black  due  to  burning.  No  happiness  would  have  ever entered this fire nor any sorrow would have come out of it) to bring the killers of Imam Husain (a.s.) even if they were Muslims. They will be put into Hell shackled in chains. If they cry, the fire will also cry. If they groan, the fire will also groan. They will cry out, “O Allah! Why were we put into Hell  before  the  infidels?”  They  will  be  told,  “Those  who know are not like those who don’t know.”

 حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُوسَی بْنِ الْمُتَوَکِّلِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ یَحْیَی الْعَطَّارُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِیهِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْأَصَمِّ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ کَثِیرٍ الْأَرَّجَانِیِّ قَالَ: صَحِبْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع فِی طَرِیقِ مَکَّهَ مِنَ الْمَدِینَهِ فَنَزَلَ مَنْزِلًا یُقَالُ لَهُ عُسْفَانُ ثُمَّ مَرَرْنَا بِجَبَلٍ أَسْوَدَ عَلَی یَسَارِ الطَّرِیقِ وَحْشٍ فَقُلْتُ یَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ مَا أَوْحَشَ هَذَا الْجَبَلَ مَا رَأَیْتُ فِی الطَّرِیقِ جَبَلًا مِثْلَهُ فَقَالَ یَا ابْنَ کَثِیرٍ أَ تَدْرِی أَیُّ جَبَلٍ هَذَا هَذَا جَبَلٌ یُقَالُ لَهُ الْکَمَدُ وَ هُوَ عَلَی وادی [وَادٍ] مِنْ أَوْدِیَهِ جَهَنَّمَ فِیهِ قَتَلَهُ الْحُسَیْنِ ع اسْتَوْدَعَهُمُ اللَّهُ یَجْرِی مِنْ تَحْتِهِ مِیَاهُ جَهَنَّمَ مِنَ الْغِسْلِینِ وَ الصَّدِیدِ وَ الْحَمِیمِ وَ مَا یَخْرُجُ مِنْ طِینَهِ خَبَالٍ وَ مَا یَخْرُجُ مِنَ الْهَاوِیَهِ وَ مَا یَخْرُجُ مِنَ الْعَسِیرِ وَ مَا مَرَرْتُ بِهَذَا الْجَبَلِ فِی مَسِیرِی فَوَقَفْتُ إِلَّا رَأَیْتُهُمَا یَسْتَغِیثَانِ وَ یَتَضَرَّعَانِ وَ إِنِّی لَأَنْظُرُ إِلَی قَتَلَهِ أَبِی فَأَقُولُ لَهُمَا إِنَّمَا فَعَلُوهُ لَمَّا اسْتَمَالُوا لَمْ تَرْحَمُونَا إِذْ وُلِّیتُمْ وَ قَتَلْتُمُونَا وَ حَرَمْتُمُونَا وَ وَثَبْتُمْ عَلَی حَقِّنَا وَ اسْتَبْدَدْتُمْ بِالْأَمْرِ دُونَنَا فَلَا یَرْحَمُ اللَّهُ مَنْ یَرْحَمُکُمَا ذُوقَا وَبَالَ مَا صَنَعْتُمَا وَ مَا اللَّهُ بِظَلَّامٍ لِلْعَبِیدِ.

6. It was narrated to me by Muhammad b. Musa b. al-Mutawakil who said it was narrated to me by Muhammad b. Yahya al-’Attar from Muhammad b. Ahmad from Ahmad b. Muhammad from his father from Abdillah b. Abdulrahman al-Asam from Abdillah b. Katheer al-Arjani who said: “Do you know what mountain it is? It is called Jabalul Kamad. It is one of the canyons of Hell, which is reserved as the abode of the killers of Imam Husain (a.s.). The water of Hell flows beneath it. Rivers like Sadeed and Hameem flow beneath it. They will never be able to come out of Hell. They won’t be able to come out of the filth coming out of the genitals of an adulteress, Hutama, Saqar etc. Whenever I pass by this mountain, I halt and see these people cry and seek help. However they did not think of anything while martyring my father. I tell them that this is the result of their deeds. When they had power, they did not care about us. When they got the kingdom, they martyred us, denied us our rights and trespassed them. They did injustice as per their wish without caring for us. ‘May Allah never forgive one who has a soft corner in his heart for you. Taste the fruits of your deeds. Allah does not do injustice to any servant.’”

 وَ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحُسَیْنِ عَنْ نَصْرِ بْنِ مُزَاحِمٍ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ سَعِیدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَعِیدِ بْنِ الْخَلِیلِ عَنْ یَعْقُوبَ بْنِ سُلَیْمَانَ قَالَ: سَهِرْتُ أَنَا وَ نَفَرٌ ذَاتَ لَیْلَهٍ فَتَذَاکَرْنَا قَتْلَ الْحُسَیْنِ ع فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ مَا تَلَبَّسَ أَحَدٌ بِقَتْلِهِ إِلَّا أَصَابَهُ بَلَاءٌ فِی أَهْلِهِ وَ مَالِهِ وَ نَفْسِهِ فَقَالَ شَیْخٌ مِنَ الْقَوْمِ فَهُوَ وَ اللَّهِ مِمَّنْ شَهِدَ قَتْلَهُ وَ أَعَانَ عَلَیْهِ فَمَا أَصَابَهُ إِلَی الْآنِ أَمْرٌ یَکْرَهُهُ فَمَقَتَهُ الْقَوْمُ وَ تَغَیَّرَ السِّرَاجُ وَ کَانَ دُهْنُهُ نِفْطاً فَقَامَ إِلَیْهِ لِیُصْلِحَهُ فَأَخَذَتِ النَّارُ بِإِصْبَعِهِ فَنَفَخَهَا فَأَخَذَتْ بِلِحْیَتِهِ فَخَرَجَ یُبَادِرُ إِلَی الْمَاءِ فَأَلْقَی نَفْسَهُ فِی النَّهَرِ وَ جَعَلَتِ النَّارُ تُرَفْرِفُ عَلَی رَأْسِهِ فَإِذَا أَخْرَجَهُ أَحْرَقَتْهُ حَتَّی مَاتَ لَعَنَهُ اللَّهُ.

7. And from the previous chain from Muhammad b. Ahmad from Muhammad b. al-Hussain from Nasr b. Muzahim from Umar b. Sa’eed from Muhammad b. Sa’eed b. al-Khalil from Ya’qub b. Sulayman who said: Yaqoob bin Sulaiman narrates that the discussion of the martyrdom of Imam Husain (a.s.) was going on one night. A person said that all who took part in the martyrdom of Imam Husain (a.s.) had to face some loss either of life or of wealth. An old man interrupted, “I took part in the martyrdom of Imam Husain (a.s.) but I didn’t have to face any calamity.” People felt really bad upon hearing this. Suddenly an oil lamp tumbled and he went to put it up properly. His hands caught fire and were burnt. Then the fire reached his beard and he ran towards water and jumped into the river but fire had already engulfed his head. When he was taken out of the river, this cursed one was completely burnt to death.

 وَ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ سَعْدٍ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ الْأَصْبَغِ بْنِ نُبَاتَهَ قَالَ: قَدِمَ عَلَیْنَا رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِی دَارِمٍ مِمَّنْ شَهِدَ قَتْلَ الْحُسَیْنِ ع مُسْوَدَّ الْوَجْهِ وَ کَانَ رَجُلًا جَمِیلًا شَدِیدَ الْبَیَاضِ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ مَا کِدْتُ أَعْرِفُکَ لِتَغَیُّرِ لَوْنِکَ- فَقَالَ قَتَلْتُ رَجُلًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِ الْحُسَیْنِ یُبْصَرُ بَیْنَ عَیْنَیْهِ أَثَرُ السُّجُودِ وَ جِئْتُ بِرَأْسِهِ فَقَالَ الْقَاسِمُ لَقَدْ رَأَیْتُهُ عَلَی فَرَسٍ لَهُ مَرِحاً وَ قَدْ عَلَّقَ الرَّأْسَ بِلَبَانِهَا وَ هُوَ یُصِیبُ رُکْبَتَهَا قَالَ فَقُلْتُ لِأَبِی لَوْ أَنَّهُ رَفَعَ الرَّأْسَ قَلِیلًا أَ مَا تَرَی مَا تَصْنَعُ بِهِ الْفَرَسُ بِیَدَیْهَا فَقَالَ لِی یَا بُنَیَّ مَا یُصْنَعُ بِی أَشَدُّ لَقَدْ حَدَّثَنِی قَالَ مَا نِمْتُ لَیْلَهً مُنْذُ قَتَلْتُهُ إِلَّا أَتَانِی فِی مَنَامِی حَتَّی یَأْخُذَ بِکَتِفِی فَیَقُودَنِی وَ یَقُولَ انْطَلِقْ فَیَنْطَلِقُ بِی إِلَی جَهَنَّمَ فَیَقْذَفَ بِی فَأَصِیحَ قَالَ فَسَمِعَتْ بِذَلِکَ جَارَهٌ لَهُ فَقَالَ مَا یَدَعُنَا نَنَامُ شَیْئاً مِنَ اللَّیْلِ مِنْ صِیَاحِهِ قَالَ فَقُمْتُ فِی شَبَابٍ مِنَ الْحَیِّ فَأَتَیْنَا امْرَأَتَهُ فَسَأَلْنَاهَا فَقَالَتْ قَدْ أَبْدَی عَلَی نَفْسِهِ قَدْ صَدَقَکُمْ.

8. And from the previous chain from Umar b. Sa’d from al-Qasim b. al-Asbagh b. Nubatah who said: “A man from the Banu Darim, who had witnessed the killing of Al-Husayn (as), came to us. He had a dark face, and he was a handsome and remarkably fair-skinned. I said to him, 'I could hardly recognize you because of the change in your complexion.' He replied, 'I killed a man from the companions of Al-Husayn who had the mark of prostration between his eyes, and I have brought his head.' So al-Qasim said: 'I saw him on a horse, riding cheerfully, with the head hung from his saddle, and the horse's reins were tied to its mane.' I said to my father, 'If he raised the head a little, you would see what the horse is doing with it using its hooves.' So my father replied to me: 'Oh son, what it does to me is even more severse.' He had informed me and said: 'I have not slept a night ever since the time I have murdered him, except that this martyr comes in my dreams, holds my shoulder and asks me to come and takes me towards Hell and throws me inside it, and I would scream.' Al-Qasim said, 'I heard his neighbor say, 'We can't sleep at night because of his screaming.' He said that he and a few persons from the tribe came to his wife and asked her. She told them: 'He himself had done so and what he has been truthful with you.'“

 وَ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ سَعْدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی أَبُو مُعَاوِیَهَ عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ عَمَّارِ بْنِ عُمَیْرٍ التَّیْمِیِّ قَالَ: لَمَّا جِی ءَ بِرَأْسِ عُبَیْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ زِیَادٍ لَعَنَهُ اللَّهُ وَ رُءُوسِ أَصْحَابِهِ عَلَیْهِمْ غَضَبُ اللَّهِ قَالَ انْتَهَیْتُ إِلَیْهِمْ وَ النَّاسُ یَقُولُونَ قَدْ جَاءَتْ قَالَ فَجَاءَتْ حَیَّهٌ تَتَخَلَّلُ الرُّءُوسَ حَتَّی دَخَلَتْ فِی مَنْخِرِ عُبَیْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ زِیَادٍ لَعْنَهُ اللَّهِ عَلَیْهِ ثُمَّ خَرَجَتْ فَدَخَلَتْ فِی الْمَنْخِرِ الْآخَرِ.

9. And from the previous chain from Umar b. Sa’d who said it was narrated to me by Abu Muawiyah from al-’Amash from Ammar b. ’Umayr al-Taymi who said: Ammar bin Umair Tamimi narrates that when the heads of the cursed Ubaidullah bin Ziyad and his companions were brought, people were saying that a snake was wrapped around his head and it went inside the head of Ubaidullah through a nostril. Then it came out and, entered the second nostril.

10.  Amirul Momineen (a.s.) narrates that the Holy Prophet (s.w) said that the head of Imam Husain (a.s.) smeared with blood will be brought to Fatima Zahra (s.a.). She will cry out, “O peace of my heart! O Fruit of my heart.” Angels will lose consciousness on hearing the cries of Fatima and the gathered people will call out, “O Fatima! May Allah kill those who martyred your son.” Allah will say, “I will take revenge from those who martyred Husain (a.s.) in front of your lovers, Shias and followers.” Fatima will be mounted on a mount of Paradise, having a beautiful forehead, white face, black eyes, head made of pure gold and neck made of amber. Its rein will be of green satins. It will be decorated with jewels and its saddle wrapped with divine light. There will be divine mercy in it. Its one step will be equal to a farsakh of this world. Seventy thousand angels will surround this mount and glorify the Lord of both this world and the hereafter saying Laa ilaaha illallaahu Allaahu akbar. A caller will  call  out  from  Divine  throne:  “O  people!  Lower  your gaze;  for  this  is  Fatima,  the  daughter  of  Muhammad (s.w). She wants to pass by the Sirat Bridge.” Fatima and her followers will pass by the Bridge with great speed. The enemies of Fatima and her progeny will be thrown into Hell.

 أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ یَحْیَی الْعَطَّارُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِیِّ بْنِ زِیَادٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِیٍّ الْحَلَبِیِّ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع إِنَّ آلَ أَبِی سُفْیَانَ قَتَلُوا الْحُسَیْنَ بْنَ عَلِیٍّ ع فَنَزَعَ اللَّهُ مُلْکَهُمْ وَ قَتَلَ هِشَامٌ زَیْدَ بْنَ عَلِیٍّ فَنَزَعَ اللَّهُ مُلْکَهُ وَ قَتَلَ الْوَلِیدُ یَحْیَی بْنَ زَیْدٍ فَنَزَعَ اللَّهُ مُلْکَهُ عَلَی قَتْلِ ذُرِّیَّهِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص.

11.  Imam  Ja’far  Sadiq  (a.s.)  said  that  indeed  when  the progeny  of  Abu  Sufyan  martyred  Imam  Husain  (a.s.),  the Almighty  Allah  snatched  their  power  from  them.  When Hisham martyred Zaid bin Ali, Allah took away power from him also. Similarly when Walid martyred Yahya bin Zaid, the Almighty Allah took away his power as punishment.
