The Killer of Ĥusain عليه السلام and the Killer of Yaĥyā ibn Zakariyyā عليه السلام

5 حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ الْقُرَشِيُّ الرَّزَّازُ عَنْ خَالِهِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ أَبِي الْخَطَّابِ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ النُّعْمَانِ عَنْ مُثَنًّى عَنْ سَدِيرٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ (ع) يَقُولُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ جَعَلَ قَتْلَ أَوْلَادِ النَّبِيِّينَ مِنَ الْأُمَمِ الْمَاضِيَةِ- عَلَى يَدَيْ أَوْلَادِ زِنًا
5. Muḥammad ibn Ja’far Al-Qurashi Al-Razzāz narrated to me from his uncle Muḥammad ibn Ḥusain ibn Abil Khaťťāb, from ‘Ali ibn Nu’mān, from Muthannā, from Sadīr, who said: I heard Abā Ja’far (Imam Bāqir عليه السلام) say: Verily Allāh has placed the killing of the children of the prophets from the previous nations in the hands of those who were conceived illegitimately.
