 Some people maintain that al-Hajjaj died because of [[Sa'id b. Jubayr]]'s prayer. Sa'id was killed by al-Hajjaj; before his death he prayed to God: "O God, do not make this person dominate anyone else after me". It is said that after 40 days from Sa'id's murder, al-Hajjaj died. During these 40 days, he always saw Sa'id in his dreams telling him while grabbing his neck: "O the enemy of God! Why did you kill me?" At this moment, al-Hajjaj woke up and said: "What has Sa'id to do with me?!"
-Al-Hajjaj died in [[Ramadan]] or [[Shawwal]], [[95]]/June or July 714. He willed his successor, [[Yazid b. Abi Muslim]], to bury him secretly and pour water on his grave and erase the signs of his grave so that no one knows where he is buried and his grave not be exhumed.
