2. Ĥasan ibn ‘Abdillāh narrated to me from his father, from Ĥasan ibn Maĥbūb, from Ĥusain son of Abǐ Ĥamzah Al-Thumāli’s daughter, who said: I went to the Ziyārah of Ĥusain  toward the end of the reign of Banǐ Marwān and I was trying to hide from the people of Shām. When I arrived in Karbalā, I hid in the suburbs of the village until midnight, after which I started approaching the grave (of Ĥusain ). When I arrived near the grave, someone came toward me and said, “Go back! You have been rewarded! You will not be able to go to him now.” I left in fear. I waited until it was close to dawn and then I went back toward the grave. When I arrived near the grave, the same person came toward me again and said, “O man! You still cannot go to him.” So I said, “May Allāh keep you well! Why can I not go to him? I have come from Kūfah for his Ziyārah. Therefore, do not prevent me – may Allāh keep you well! I am afraid that the sun will rise and if the people of Shām find me here, they will kill me.” He replied: Wait for a while because Mūsā ibn ‘Imrān  asked Allāh to give him permission to come to the Ziyārah of the grave of Ĥusain , and Allāh has granted him permission. Mūsā  has descended from the heavens with seventy thousand angels and they have been here since the beginning of the night and they are waiting for dawn, after which they will ascend to the heavens. I asked, “May Allāh keep you well! Who are you?” He replied, “I am one of the angels who are ordered to protect the grave of Ĥusain  and to seek forgiveness for those who come to his Ziyārah.” So I left, having almost lost my mind from hearing what I had heard. At dawn, I went back toward the grave. However, this time no one stopped me. I went to the grave and said Salām to Ĥusain , cursed his killers, prayed the Fajr Šalāt, and returned quickly because of my fear of the people of Shām. The above Ĥadǐth has also been narrated to me through the following chains: A) Qāsim ibn Muĥammad ibn ‘Ali ibn Ibrāhǐm Al-Hamdāni, from his father, from his grandfather, from ‘Abdillāh ibn Ĥammād Al-Anšāri, from Ĥusain grandson of Abǐ Ĥamzah Al-Thumāli. B) My father, and all of my scholars, from Aĥmad ibn Idrǐs, from ‘Amraki ibn ‘Ali Al-Būfaki, from a group of our companions, from Ĥasan ibn Maĥbūb, from Ĥusain son of Abǐ Ĥamzah Al-Thumāli’s daughter.
