2 حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ النَّاقِدُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ الْبَلْخِيُّ [السُّلَمِيُّ] قَالَ لِي أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ وَ أَخْبَرَنِي عَمِّي عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي نَصْرٍ عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ بَيْتِ الْمَقْدِسِ أَنَّهُ قَالَ وَ اللَّهِ لَقَدْ عَرَفْنَا أَهْلَ بَيْتِ الْمَقْدِسِ وَ نَوَاحِيهَا عَشِيَّةَ قَتْلِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ (ع) قُلْتُ وَ كَيْفَ ذَاكَ- قَالَ مَا رَفَعْنَا حَجَراً وَ لَا مَدَراً وَ لَا صَخْراً إِلَّا وَ رَأَيْنَا تَحْتَهَا دَماً عَبِيطاً يَغْلِي وَ احْمَرَّتِ الْحِيطَانُ كَالْعَلَقِ وَ مُطِرَ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامِ دَماً عَبِيطاً وَ سَمِعْنَا مُنَادِياً يُنَادِي فِي جَوْفِ اللَّيْلِ يَقُولُ- أَ تَرْجُو أُمَّةٌ قَتَلَتْ حُسَيْناً * * * شَفَاعَةَ جَدِّهِ يَوْمَ الْحِسَابِ مَعَاذَ اللَّهِ لَا نِلْتُمْ يَقِيناً * * * شَفَاعَةَ أَحْمَدَ وَ أَبِي تُرَابٍ قَتَلْتُمْ خَيْرَ مَنْ رَكِبَ الْمَطَايَا * * * وَ خَيْرَ الشِّيبِ طُرّاً وَ الشَّبَابِ - وَ انْكَسَفَتِ الشَّمْسُ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ ثُمَّ تَجَلَّتْ عَنْهَا وَ انْشَبَكَتِ النُّجُومُ فَلَمَّا كَانَ مِنْ غَدٍ أُرْجِفْنَا بِقَتْلِهِ فَلَمْ يَأْتِ عَلَيْنَا كَثِيرُ شَيْءٍ حَتَّى نُعِيَ إِلَيْنَا الْحُسَيْنُ ع

Translation

2. Abul Ḥusain Aḥmad ibn ‘Abdillāh ibn ‘Ali Al-Nāqid narrated to me from ‘Abdil Raḥmān Al-Balkhi, and from his uncle, from his father, from Abī Nasr, who said: A man from Bayt Al-Maqdis said, “I swear to Allāh that we, the people of Bayt Al-Maqdis and its suburbs, learned of the killing of Ḥusain ibn ‘Ali (a.s.) on the eve of the day on which he was killed.” I (Abū 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 Ḥusain (a.s.) hope to receive the intercession of his grandfather on the Day of Judgment!? Verily Allāh forbids you to receive the intercession of Aḥmad (s.a.a.w.) and Abī Turāb (a.s.). 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 Ḥusain (a.s.). Shortly thereafter, we learned the disastrous news of the killing of Ḥusain (a.s.).
