لَمَّا أُصِيبَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ( عليه السلام ) نَعَى الْحَسَنُ إِلَى الْحُسَيْنِ ( عليهما السلام ) وَ هُوَ بِالْمَدَائِنِ فَلَمَّا قَرَأَ الْكِتَابَ قَالَ يَا لَهَا مِنْ مُصِيبَةٍ مَا أَعْظَمَهَا مَعَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ  ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) قَالَ مَنْ أُصِيبَ مِنْكُمْ بِمُصِيبَةٍ فَلْيَذْكُرْ مُصَابَهُ بِي فَإِنَّهُ لَنْ يُصَابَ بِمُصِيبَةٍ أَعْظَمَ مِنْهَا وَ صَدَقَ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) .


Translation

A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Khalid, from Ismail Bin Mihran, from Sayf Bin Ameyra, from Amro Bin Shimr, from Abdullah Bin Al Waleed Al Ju’fy, from a man, from his father who said, ‘When Amir Al-Momineen<sup>asws</sup> passed away, Al-Hassan<sup>asws</sup> notified Al-Husayn<sup>asws</sup>, and he<sup>asws</sup> was in Al-Medina. So when he<sup>asws</sup> recited the letter, said: ‘O what a calamity! How great it is along with that Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> said: ‘The one among you who is hit with a difficulty (bereavement), so let him recall his bereavement with me<sup>saww</sup>, for he would never be hit by a calamity greater than it’, and he<sup>saww</sup> spoke the truth’.
