Martyrdom of a collective number of companions of Imam Husain (a.s)

As regards Umar bin Khalid Saydawi, Jabir bin Hurayth Salmani, Sa'ad the retainer of Umar bin Khalid, and Mujme' bin Abdullah Aezi, they came out with their swords in the beginning of the battle. They attacked the Kufan army and entered their ranks. The enemies too responded to their attack and

surrounded them while seperating them from their companions. Seeing this Abbas bin Ali (a.s) hastened towards them and rescued them from their clunches. Then when again the enemies advanced further, they attacked them and fought, until they all attained martyrdom at one place. (May Allah's Mercy and Blessings be upon them).
