5. Shoabi ke mutabiq Hijri san 67 ke Ashura ke din Ibrahim bin Maalik e Ashtar ne Mukhtar ko Ibn Ziyad aur Shaam ke dusre raeeso'n ke sar bheje. Mukhtar oos waqt khana khaa rahe the. Unhone Shukr adaa kiya.. Mukhtar ne wo tamaam sar Makkah J. Muhammad e Hanafia ke paas bheje. J. Muhammad oos waqt khana khaa rahe the. Jab Ibne Ziyad ka sar unke paas pahu'ncha to unhone Shukr e Khuda adaa kiya. J. Muhammad ne wo sar Imam Sajjad (as) ke paas Madina bhej diye. Jab Ibne Ziyad ka sar Imam Sajjad (as) ke paas aaya to aap oos waqt khana khaa rahe the. Aap fauran Sajda e Shukr mein gir gaye aur kaha, "Baare Ilaha! Tera Shukr hai ke Tu ne maut se pehle mujhe Ibne Ziyad ka sar dikha diya. Jab mere Baba ka sar Ibne Ziyad ko pesh kiya gaya tha, oos waqt wo bhi khana hi khaa raha tha".

6. Jis waqt Ibne Ziyaad aur Umar e Sa'ad ka sar Imam Zainul Abedin (as) ke saamne laya gaya to usko dekhte hi aap Sajda e Shukr mein gir pade aur ye alfaaz zabaan e mubarak par jaari kiye, "Shukr hai oos Khuda e Qaadir ka jis ne mere dushmano'n se inteqaam liya. Khuda Mukhtaar ko jazaa e khair de".
(Bihaar ul Anwaar, v2, p171)
