Weeping of the Heavens and the Earth over the Killing of Ĥusain (a.s.) and Yaĥyā ibn Zakariyyā (a.s.)

21. My father narrated to me from Muḥammad ibn Ḥasan (ibn ‘Ali) ibn Mahziyār, from his father, from ‘Ali ibn Mahziyār, from Ḥasan ibn Sa’īd, from Faďālah ibn Ayyūb, from Dāwūd ibn Farqad, who said
I heard Abā ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq (a.s.)) say: The killer of Ḥusain ibn ‘Ali (a.s.) was conceived illegitimately and the killer of Yaḥyā ibn Zakariyyā (a.s.) was (also) conceived illegitimately. When Ḥusain ibn ‘Ali (a.s.) was killed, the heavens turned red for one year. The heavens and the earth have (only) wept over Ḥusain ibn ‘Ali (a.s.) and Yaḥyā ibn Zakariyyā (a.s.), and the heavens weep by becoming red.
21 حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مَهْزِيَارَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مَهْزِيَارَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ فَضَالَةَ بْنِ أَيُّوبَ عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ فَرْقَدٍ قَالَ
سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (ع) يَقُولُ كَانَ الَّذِي قَتَلَ الْحُسَيْنَ بْنَ عَلِيٍّ (ع) وَلَدَ زِناً وَ الَّذِي قَتَلَ يَحْيَى بْنَ زَكَرِيَّا وَلَدَ زِنًا وَ قَدْ قَالَ احْمَرَّتِ السَّمَاءُ حِينَ قُتِلَ الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ سَنَةً ثُمَّ قَالَ بَكَتِ السَّمَاءُ وَ الْأَرْضُ عَلَى الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ وَ عَلَى يَحْيَى بْنِ زَكَرِيَّا وَ حُمْرَتُهَا بُكَاؤُهَا
