لَمَّا قَتَلَ دَاوُدُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْمُعَلَّى بْنَ خُنَيْسٍ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) لَأَدْعُوَنَّ اللَّهَ عَلَى مَنْ قَتَلَ مَوْلَايَ وَ أَخَذَ مَالِي فَقَالَ لَهُ دَاوُدُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ إِنَّكَ لَتُهَدِّدُنِي بِدُعَائِكَ قَالَ حَمَّادٌ قَالَ الْمِسْمَعِيُّ فَحَدَّثَنِي مُعَتِّبٌ أَنَّ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) لَمْ يَزَلْ لَيْلَتَهُ رَاكِعاً وَ سَاجِداً فَلَمَّا كَانَ فِي السَّحَرِ سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ وَ هُوَ سَاجِدٌ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِقُوَّتِكَ الْقَوِيَّةِ وَ بِجَلَالِكَ الشَّدِيدِ الَّذِي كُلُّ خَلْقِكَ لَهُ ذَلِيلٌ أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ أَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ وَ أَنْ تَأْخُذَهُ السَّاعَةَ السَّاعَةَ فَمَا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ حَتَّى سَمِعْنَا الصَّيْحَةَ فِي دَارِ دَاوُدَ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ فَرَفَعَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) رَأْسَهُ وَ قَالَ إِنِّي دَعَوْتُ اللَّهَ بِدَعْوَةٍ بَعَثَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ عَلَيْهِ مَلَكاً فَضَرَبَ رَأْسَهُ بِمِرْزَبَةٍ مِنْ حَدِيدٍ انْشَقَّتْ مِنْهَا مَثَانَتُهُ فَمَاتَ .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ibn Abu Najran, from Hammad Bin Usman, from Al Misma’a who said, ‘When Dawood Bin Ali killed Al-Moalla Bin Khunays, Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘I<sup>asws</sup> will be supplicating to Allah<sup>azwj</sup> against the one who killed my<sup>asws</sup> friend and seized my<sup>asws</sup> wealth’. So Dawood Bin Ali said to him<sup>asws</sup>, ‘You<sup>asws</sup> are threatening me with your<sup>asws</sup> supplication?’ Hammad (the second narrator) said, ‘Al-Misma’a (the first narrator) said, ‘Mo’tab (a narrator) narrated to me that Abu Abdullah<sup style="font-weight: normal">asws</sup> did not cease to be in <span class="iTxt">Ruku’u</span> and <span class="iTxt">Sajdah</span> during his<sup style="font-weight: normal">asws</sup> night. So when it was pre-dawn, I heard him<sup style="font-weight: normal">asws</sup> saying while he was in <span class="iTxt">Sajdah</span>: ‘O Allah<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup>! I<sup style="font-weight: normal">asws</sup> ask You<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> with Your<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> Strength and with Your<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> Intense Majesty which every creature is servile, that You<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> Send <span class="iTxt">Salaw</span>ā<span class="iTxt">t</span> upon Muhammad<sup style="font-weight: normal">saww</sup> and the People<sup style="font-weight: normal">asws</sup> of his<sup style="font-weight: normal">saww</sup> Household, and that You<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> Seize him at the moment, at the moment!’. So he<sup style="font-weight: normal">asws</sup> had not raised his<sup style="font-weight: normal">asws</sup> head until we heard the shriek in the house of Dawood Bin Ali. So Abu Abdullah<sup style="font-weight: normal">asws</sup> raised his<sup style="font-weight: normal">asws</sup> head and said: ‘I<sup style="font-weight: normal">asws</sup> supplicated to Allah<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> with a supplication, Allah<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> Mighty and Majestic Sent an Angel upon him, so he struck his head with an iron sledgehammer, his bladder split from it, so he died’.
