Sinopsis

al-Mugheera Ibn Shu’ba رضي الله عنه (S61) Muawiya رضي الله عنه appointed Ziyad Ibn Abee as next governor of Kufa. He also governed Busra - spending 6 months in each city. With Hasan’s رضي الله عنه martyrdom, Hujr رضي الله عنه thought his binding was over, thus began speaking up. He رضي الله عنه was a supporter of Imam Ali (a.s). Mugheera’s رضي الله عنه words were true. Ziyad did not show the same treatment to Hujr رضي الله عنه as Mugheera رضي الله عنه did. Amongst other things, when Ziyad found out Hujr رضي الله عنه had a gathering in his house in which were supporters of Ali رضي الله عنه, and that Hujr رضي الله عنه threw pebbles at Ziyad, tensions rose. Ziyad sent police to arrest Hujr رضي الله عنه and solve matters. After some resistance, Hujr رضي الله عنه and 13 of his close allies were arrested and sent to Ameer ul-Mumineen Muawiya رضي الله عنه. Ziyad sent a letter that there is witnesses that testify to these men criticising the Khalif.
