Hadith 167
۞
6. My father and Muḥammad ibn Ḥasan (ibn Aḥmad ibn Walīd) both narrated to me from Sa’d ibn ‘Abdillāh, from Aḥmad ibn Muḥammad (Al-Ash’ari), from ‘Ali ibn Ḥakam, from his father, from Abil Jārūd, who said
Abū Ja’far (Imam Bāqir (a.s.)) said: Ḥusain (a.s.) left Makkah one day before the day of Tarwiyah (Eighth of Dhil Ḥijjah). As he was leaving, ‘Abdullāh ibn Zubayr accompanied him and said, “O Abā ‘Abdillāh! The season of Hajj has come and you are leaving Makkah to go to Iraq?!” Ḥusain (a.s.) replied, “O son of Zubayr! Verily I prefer to be buried by the shore of the Euphrates (River) than to be buried inside the Ka’bah.”
6 حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي (رحمه الله) وَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي الْجَارُودِ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (ع) قَالَ
إِنَّ الْحُسَيْنَ (ع) خَرَجَ مِنْ مَكَّةَ قَبْلَ التَّرْوِيَةِ بِيَوْمٍ فَشَيَّعَهُ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ فَقَالَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ لَقَدْ حَضَرَ الْحَجُّ وَ تَدَعُهُ وَ تَأْتِي الْعِرَاقَ فَقَالَ يَا ابْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ لَأَنْ أُدْفَنَ بِشَاطِئِ الْفُرَاتِ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ أُدْفَنَ بِفِنَاءِ الْكَعْبَةِ
