Before al-Muhaddith al-Nuri, [[al-Sayyid b. Tawus]] expressed his doubt about the issue as well in his ''[[Iqbal al-a'mal]]''. | ||
* Some scholars confirmed that the captives have visited Karbala, and considered a later time for it, end of Safar or beginning of Rabi' I or later. | * Some scholars confirmed that the captives have visited Karbala, and considered a later time for it, end of Safar or beginning of Rabi' I or later. | ||
* Others believe that the caravan of the captives arrived in [[Iraq]] from Syria and arrived in Karbala on the day of Arba'in and after visiting Imam al-Husayn (a) moved towards [[Medina]]. They also believe that they visited [[Jabir b. 'Abd Allah al-Ansari]] and some of [[Banu Hashim]] as well. This opinion is mentioned in the ''[[al-Luhuf]]'' of al-Sayyid b.

Due to these conflicting views, some scholars have tried to author some books to prove that the return of the remaining members of Imam al-Husayn's (a) family to Karbala on Safar 20, 61/680 has been, in fact, possible and that the narrations referring to this return are reliable. One of the most famous and comprehensive works is authored by [[Sayyid Muhammad 'Ali Qadi Tabataba'i]] called ''Tahqiq darbara-yi awwal Arba'in-i Sayyid al-Shuhada (a)'' (Research on the first Arba'in of Imam al-Husayn) which has been written to refute the views of al-Muhaddith al-Nuri and Shaykh 'Abbas Qummi. | Due to these conflicting views, some scholars have tried to author some books to prove that the return of the remaining members of Imam al-Husayn's (a) family to Karbala on Safar 20, 61/680 has been, in fact, possible and that the narrations referring to this return are reliable.
