Punishment of those who martyred Imam Husain عليه السلام
أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ یَحْیَی الْعَطَّارُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِیِّ بْنِ زِیَادٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِیٍّ الْحَلَبِیِّ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع إِنَّ آلَ أَبِی سُفْیَانَ قَتَلُوا الْحُسَیْنَ بْنَ عَلِیٍّ ع فَنَزَعَ اللَّهُ مُلْکَهُمْ وَ قَتَلَ هِشَامٌ زَیْدَ بْنَ عَلِیٍّ فَنَزَعَ اللَّهُ مُلْکَهُ وَ قَتَلَ الْوَلِیدُ یَحْیَی بْنَ زَیْدٍ فَنَزَعَ اللَّهُ مُلْکَهُ عَلَی قَتْلِ ذُرِّیَّهِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص.
11. Imam Ja’far Sadiq عليه السلام said that indeed when the progeny of Abu Sufyan martyred Imam Husain عليه السلام, the Almighty Allah snatched their power from them. When Hisham martyred Zaid bin Ali, Allah took away power from him also. Similarly when Walid martyred Yahya bin Zaid, the Almighty Allah took away his power as punishment.
