Mourning of Imam Husain (a.s) Hadith: 39

Tradition 39 It is quoted in Museerul Ehzan through successive chain of transmitters reaching the Noble Shaikh Ja'far bin Mohammad Qawlawayh Qummi, that it is related to me that one day Imam Husain (a.s) went to his brother Imam Hasan (a.s). When he looked at Imam Hasan (a.s), he started weeping. Imam

Hasan asked, "O Aba Abdillah! Why do you weep"? Imam Husain replied that he wept on account of that which would befall him. Imam Hasan said, "What shall befall me is the fatal poison, but none of my days will be similar to that of yours. Thirty thousand people, claiming to follow our Grandfather (the Prophet), will unite to attack you and shed your blood, and violate the sanctity and imprison your women-folk and children and plunder your tents. At that time the wrath (of Allah) will descend upon the Bani Umayyah and the heavens will rain blood, and all things will lament over you, to the extent that the wild-beasts of the forests and the fish of the rivers will also weep over your sufferings."
