===The Plan to Murder Ubayd Allah b. Ziyad===
===The Plan to Murder Ubayd Allah b. Ziyad===
According to a report cited in many historical sources, one day 'Ubayd Allah b. Ziyad wanted to give a visit to [[Sharik b. al-A'war al-Harithi]], a Shi'a of Imam 'Ali, a friend of 'Ubayd Allah, and was resting in Hani's house because of his sickness. Before 'Ubayd Allah's arrival in the house, Sharik b. al-A'war suggested that Muslim hide somewhere in the house, and then at the right time, murder 'Ubayd Allah. When Ibn Ziyad arrived in Hani's house, Muslim b. 'Aqil refused to kill him because Hani b. 'Urwa did not want Ibn Ziyad to be killed in his own house, and because of a [[hadith]] from the [[Prophet (s)]] in which surprise killing was prohibited.
