8. Al-Husayn ibn Muhammad has said that Abu Kurayb and Abu Sa‘id al-Ashja‘ narrated to him that ‘Abdallah ibn Idris narrated to them his father, Idris ibn ‘Abdallah al-’Awi who said the following: "When al-Husayn عليه السلام was murdered the people wanted to make the horses run over his (al-Husayn’s) body. Fizzah then told Zaynab, 'My lady, there was a shipwreck and Safina came out on an Island face-to-face with a lion. He said to the lion, 'O Abu al-Harith, I am the slave of the Messenger of Allah.' The lion murmured in front of him and showed him the way. There lives a lion in this area allow me to go and inform him of what the people intend to do to al-Husayn عليه السلام tomorrow.' The narrator has said that she went to the lion and said, 'O Abu al-Harith and the lion raised his head and she said, 'Do you know what these people intend to do to Abu ‘Abdallah عليه السلام ? They intend to make the horses run over his body.' The narrator has said that the lion walked and placed both of his hands over the body of al-Husayn عليه السلام . When the horsemen came they found the lion in that condition and ‘Umar ibn Sa‘d (may Allah condemn him) told them, 'It is mischief. Do not bother and turn back,' thus they turned back.
