إِنَّ عِنْدَ رَأْسِ الْحُسَيْنِ ( عليه السلام ) لَتُرْبَةً حَمْرَاءَ فِيهَا شِفَاءٌ مِنْ كُلِّ دَاءٍ إِلَّا السَّامَ قَالَ فَأَتَيْنَا الْقَبْرَ بَعْدَ مَا سَمِعْنَا هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ فَاحْتَفَرْنَا عِنْدَ رَأْسِ الْقَبْرِ فَلَمَّا حَفَرْنَا قَدْرَ ذِرَاعٍ ابْتَدَرَتْ عَلَيْنَا مِنْ رَأْسِ الْقَبْرِ مِثْلُ السِّهْلَةِ حَمْرَاءَ قَدْرَ الدِّرْهَمِ فَحَمَلْنَاهَا إِلَى الْكُوفَةِ فَمَزَجْنَاهُ وَ أَقْبَلْنَا نُعْطِي النَّاسَ يَتَدَاوَوْنَ بِهَا .
Translation
Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Al Hassan Bin Ali, from Yunus Bin Al Rabie, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘By the head of Al-Husayn<sup>asws</sup> there is red clay wherein is a healing from every disease except for the death’. He (the narrator) said, ‘So we went to the grave after having heard this Hadeeth, so we dug by the head of the grave. So when we had dug the measurement of a cubit, there appeared to us, from the head of the grave, like the red coastal sand like the (size of a) Dirham (coin). So we carried it to Al-Kufa, and we blended it, and went around giving it to the people for them to use it as medication’.
