The Lamentation of the Owl on Ĥusain عليه السلام

3 وَ حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ الرَّزَّازُ عَنْ خَالِهِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ أَبِي الْخَطَّابِ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ رَجُلٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (ع) قَالَ إِنَّ الْبُومَ لَتَصُومُ النَّهَارَ فَإِذَا أَفْطَرَتْ أَنْدَبَتْ عَلَى الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّع حَتَّى تُصْبِحَ
3. Muḥammad ibn Ja’far Al-Razzāz narrated to me from his uncle Muḥammad ibn Ḥusain ibn Abil Khaťťāb, from Ḥasan ibn ‘Ali ibn Faďďāl, from someone who said: Abū ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq عليه السلام) said: Verily owls fast during the day and after they break their fast, they are extremely bewildered with grief over Ḥusain ibn ‘Ali عليه السلام until morning.
