John Shaqi

كَانَ الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ ( عليه السلام ) جَالِساً فَمَرَّتْ عَلَيْهِ جَنَازَةٌ فَقَامَ النَّاسُ حِينَ طَلَعَتِ الْجَنَازَةُ فَقَالَ الْحُسَيْنُ ( عليه السلام ) مَرَّتْ جَنَازَةُ يَهُودِيٍّ وَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) عَلَى طَرِيقِهَا جَالِساً فَكَرِهَ أَنْ تَعْلُوَ رَأْسَهُ جَنَازَةُ يَهُودِيٍّ فَقَامَ لِذَلِكَ .


Translation

A number of our companions, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Ibn Abu Najran, from Musanna Al Hannat, from Abu Absdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘Al Husayn Bin Ali<sup>asws</sup> was seated, and a funeral coffin passed by him. So the people stood up when the coffin emerged. So Al Husayn<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘A funeral coffin of a Jew passed by and Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> was upon its road, seated. So he<sup>saww</sup> disliked that the head of the deceased Jew be higher than his<sup>saww</sup>, therefore he<sup>saww</sup> stood up for that’.
