The Prophet صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم said, “My nation will kill Ĥusain عليه السلام after me.”

4. Ḥasan ibn ‘Abdillāh ibn Muḥammad ibn ‘Isā narrated to me from his father, from Ḥasan ibn Maḥbūb, from ‘Ali ibn Shajarah, from Salām Al-Ju’fi, from ‘Abdillāh ibn Muḥammad Al-San’āni, who said: Abū Ja’far (Imam Bāqir عليه السلام) said: The Messenger of Allāh صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم would draw Ḥusain عليه السلام to himself whenever Ḥusain عليه السلام would enter (a place where the Messenger of Allāh صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم happened to be). Then he would tell the Commander of the Believers عليه السلام to hold Ḥusain عليه السلام, after which he would fall on Ḥusain عليه السلام, kissing him and crying. So (once) Ḥusain عليه السلام asked, “O father! Why are you crying?” “I am kissing parts of your body which will be struck with swords,” the Prophet صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم replied. “O father! Will I be killed?” Ḥusain عليه السلام asked. “Yes. I swear to Allāh that you, your father, and your brother will be killed,” the Prophet صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم replied. “Will the places of our martyrdom be far from each other?” Ḥusain عليه السلام asked. “Yes. O my son,” the Prophet صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم replied. “So who from your nation will come to our Ziyārah?” Ḥusain عليه السلام asked. “No one but the truthful ones from my nation will come to my Ziyārah, to the Ziyārah of your father, to the Ziyārah of your brother, or to your Ziyārah,” the Prophet صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم replied.
