مسند عبد الله بن العباس بن عبد المطلب (1) ، عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم

Hadith 25:694

'Affan narrated to us, Hammad—meaning Ibn Salamah—narrated to us, 'Ammar informed us, from Ibn 'Abbas, who said: "I saw the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, in what a sleeper sees, in the middle of the day, and he was standing, disheveled and covered in dust, with a vial in his hand containing blood. I said: 'May my father and mother be sacrificed for you, O Messenger of Allah, what is this?' He said: 'This is the blood of Al-Husayn and his companions; I have not ceased collecting it since today.' We then counted that day, and they found that he was killed on that very day."

حدثنا عفان، حدثنا حماد هو ابن سلمة، أخبرنا عمار، عن ابن عباس قال: " رأيت النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم، فيما يرى النائم بنصف النهار وهو قائم أشعث أغبر، بيده قارورة فيها دم، فقلت: بأبي أنت وأمي يا رسول الله، ما هذا؟ قال: هذا دم الحسين وأصحابه، لم أزل ألتقطه منذ اليوم فأحصينا ذلك اليوم فوجدوه قتل في ذلك اليوم "
