[Machine] I witnessed Ali when he arrived in Karbala and said, "There will be martyrs in this place, and there are no martyrs like the martyrs of Badr." I expressed doubt about some of his statements, and then a dead donkey appeared. I told my servant to take the leg of this donkey and place it on his seat, and hide it. Time passed, and when Husayn bin Ali was killed, I left with my companions. Suddenly, I saw the body of Husayn bin Ali on the leg of that donkey, while his companions were surrounding him.  

إِنِّي لَمَعَ عَلِيٍّ ؓ إِذْ أَتَى كَرْبَلَاءَ فَقَالَ «يُقْتَلُ فِي هَذَا الْمَوْضِعِ شُهَدَاءُ لَيْسَ مِثْلَهُمْ شُهَدَاءُ إِلَّا شُهَدَاءُ بَدْرٍ» فَقُلْتُ بَعْضُ كِذْبَاتِهِ وَثَمَّ رِجْلُ حِمَارٍ مَيِّتٍ فَقُلْتُ لِغُلَامي خُذْ رِجْلَ هَذَا الْحِمَارِ فَأَوْتِدْهَا فِي مَقْعَدِهِ وَغَيِّبْهَا فَضَرَبَ الدَّهْرُ ضَرْبَةً فَلَمَّا قُتِلَ الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ ؓ انْطَلَقْتُ وَمَعِي أَصْحَابٌ لِي فَإِذَا جُثَّةُ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ ؓ عَلَى رِجْلِ ذَاكَ الْحِمَارِ وَإِذَا أَصْحَابُهُ رِبْضَةٌ حَوْلَهُ
