==Birth, Lineage and Martyrdom==
==Birth, Lineage and Martyrdom==
His birthday is unknown. He was martyred on [[Dhu l-Hijja 9th]] 60 in [[Kufa]] (September 10, 680). On some accounts, Muslim was 28 years old when he was martyred. However, the account is objectionable because it is inconsistent with accounts according to which Muslim's sons, who were martyred in the [[Event of Ashura]], were 26 and 27. Given that he was reportedly present in conquests as well as the Battle of Siffin, some people believe that he was over 50 when he was martyred. Muslim's grave is located in Kufa on the eastern side of the [[Mosque of Kufa]].
