A person from among the (clan of) Bani Tameem, named Abdullah bin Hawzah, advanced further until he came face to face with Imam Husayn (a.s.) and called out to him. Imam replied,

“What do you desire”?

The accursed replied, “May you get the good news of the (hell) fire.” (Allah’s refuge) Imam replied,

“No, it is not as you say. I am proceeding to the presence of the Merciful Lord and the intercessor, who is obeyed.”

Then he inquired as to who he was, and was told that he was the son of Hawzah. Imam said,

“O Allah! Send him to the fire (of hell).”

Suddenly his horse was aroused and threw him down. (Irshad). But his left foot got entangled in the stirrup while his right foot was raised in the air. Then Muslim bin Awsaja attacked and cut his right foot. The horse started run­ning with him with his head hitting against the stones and trees of the desert until he died. Thus his spirit hastened towards (the fire of) hell.
