Ibn-E-Ziad Invited Shabas bin Rabai (5th Muharram)

On 5 th Ibn-E-Ziad sent his messenger to Shabas bin Rabai and invited him to see him in Kufa. But he refused and made an excuse of illness. Ibn-E-Ziad realized the actual reason because Shabas don’t want to fight against Imam Hussain (A.S). Ibn-E-Ziad again sent message to Shabas and said if you follow the order of Yazeed then see me and don’t be from the people who don’t believe on Allah.

Shabas was a famous warrior and he was who wrote a letter to Imam Hussain (A.S) and invited Him to Kufa and said that fields are greenish and fruits are ready here.
