His curse for Tamim bin Husain

Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a) said:

On Ashura day, Tamim bin Husain said to Imam Husain (a), “Husain look at the water of the Euphrates, how it is swelling and gushing and you won’t get a drop from it till you die.”

“Who is this fellow?” asked Imam Husain (a).

He was told that this was Tamim bin Husain.

Imam Husain (a) said,

“Both he and his father are inmates of Hell. O God, kill this fellow through thirst today only.”

This curse was soon fulfilled when this man was overcome by a sudden pang of thirst due to which he fell down from his mount and immediately he was trampled by the other horses of the army.

Amali, Saduq, Pg. 134.

It is narrated from Huzaifah bin Usaid Ghiffari who said: When Hasan bin Ali bade farewell to Muawiyah and left for Medina, I accompanied him in his journey, and there was a loaded camel in front of him, not separating from him wherever he headed. One day I said to him, ‘May I be sacrificed for you, O Abu Muhammad! This luggage, you do not separate from it wherever you are headed.’ He said: ‘O Huzaifah! Do you know what it is?’ I said, ‘No.’ He said: ‘This is the register.’ I said, ‘A register of what?’ He said: ‘Register of our Shias wherein are their names.’ I said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you! Show me my name.’ He said: ‘Come in the morning.’ He said: ‘I went to him in the morning and with me was a nephew of mine, and he was literate and I could not read. He said: ‘What have you come for in the morning?’ I said, ‘The need which you promised me.’ He said: ‘Who is that youth with you?’ I said, ‘A nephew of mine, and he is literate, and I am not.’ He (the narrator) said, ‘He said to me: ‘Be seated!’ So, I sat down. He said: ‘Get me the middle register.’ I came with it.’ The youth looked and there were names listed. While he was reading, he said, ‘O uncle! Here is my name!’ I said, ‘May your mother be bereft of you! Look where my name is.’ He turned a page, then said, ‘There is your name.’ So, we cheered, and the youth was martyred with Husain bin Ali” Reference: Basairud Darajaat, Pg. 172, Tr. 6, Miracles of Ahlulbayt (a.s. ) - Vol. 2.Pg.70
