What a painful scene it was when Imam Husain (A) was left alone at the entrance of the tent, the corpse of the martyrs scattered everywhere, the voice of mourning of women was filling the air and as Imam Husain (A) expressed his call for help then their wailing reached its peak.
Sibt Ibn Jauzi writes in 'Tazkirat Al-Khwas' pg:-143:
When Imam Husain (A) heard the crying of an infant, he carried that child towards the soldiers and said:
'If you do not have mercy on me then at least feel pity for this infant.' "
But they all were heartless men no one was moved. Hurmula shot an arrow and the infant was slaughtered in the arms of his father. When Imam (A) saw this tears gushed forth from his eyes. He invoked God.
"O Lord decide between me and this nation. They invited us with faith and assurance for help rather they are killing us.''
There came a divine voice:
"O Hussain Bid farewell to this child, a midwife has been appointed for him in this paradise."
Imam Hussain (A) came down from his horse dug a grave from his sword and buried the blood-bathed corpse of Hazrat Ali Asghar (A)
After this began the sanguine spectacle of Imam Husain's (A) heroic martyrdom.
