Chapter 29 | The Lamentation of Jinn on Ĥusain ibn ‘Ali

3 حَدَّثَنِي حَكِيمُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ بْنِ حَكِيمٍ عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عُمَرُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ وَ عَمْرُو بْنُ ثَابِتٍ عَنْ أَبِي زِيَادٍ الْقَنْدِيِّ قَالَ كَانَ الْجَصَّاصُونَ يَسْمَعُونَ نَوْحَ الْجِنِّ حِينَ قُتِلَ الْحُسَيْنُ (ع) فِي السَّحَرِ بِالْجَبَّانَةِ وَ هُمْ يَقُولُونَ مَسَحَ الرَّسُولُ جَبِينَهُ * * * فَلَهُ بَرِيقٌ فِي الْخُدُودِ أَبَوَاهُ مِنْ عَلْيَا قُرَيْشٍ * * * جَدُّهُ خَيْرُ الْجُدُودِ

3. Ḥukaym ibn Dāwūd ibn Ḥukaym narrated to me from Salamah ibn Khaťťāb, from ‘Amr ibn Sa’īd, and from ‘Amr ibn Thābit, from Abī Ziyād Al-Qandi (Al-Ghanawi), who said: When Ḥusain was killed, the masons who used to work in Jabbānah used to hear the lamentation of Jinn at dawn. They used to hear the Jinn recite the following poem: The Messenger (of Allāh ﷺ) has rubbed his hands over Ḥusain’s forehead, therefore his cheeks radiate with light. His parents are from the elite of the Quraysh and his grandfather is the best of grandfathers.
