His curse on Ibne Juwairiya

Miracles of Masoomeen
Ata bin Saib says: My brother told me that he was present in Kerbala when a person from Bani Tamim went to Imam Husain (a) and called him.
What do you want? asked Imam Husain (a).
That accursed man said: May you have the tidings of Hell. (Allah forbid!)
Imam Husain (a) said: That is not at all possible. I would proceed to the presence of forgiving, affectionate Lord. I am righteous and my end shall also be good. (But) who are you?
I am Ibne Juwairiya, he replied.
Imam Husain (a) raised his hands till the whiteness of his underarms was exposed.
Then he said: O God, cast him into Hell.
That accursed fellow was enraged and he tried to attack the Imam when suddenly his horse reared and threw him down while one of his feet was stuck in the stirrup. The beast bolted dragging him behind, while his head struck rocks and he was yanked over the earth till his skull split and his brain fell out while his body would still attached to the horse. At that time that accursed one entered Hell.
Uyunul Mojizaat, Pg. 65.

One night, when I was doing the Tawaf, I noticed an extremely handsome and fragrant young man walking about and doing the Tawaf of the Kaaba.
