Do you suggest us leave our brother and master al-Husayn (a), son of [[Fatima (s)]] and join the cursed, sons of the cursed?! You give us safe conduct while the son of [[the Prophet (s)]] [Husayn b. 'Ali (a)] is not safe?!" | On the evening of [[Tasu'a]], [[Shimr]] went near the tents of the caravan of Imam al-Husayn (a), and offered a safe conduct for sons of [[Umm al-Banin]], including al-'Abbas,<ref>Baladhri, ''Ansab al-ashraf'', vol. 3, p. 183</ref> but al-'Abbas ignored him, until [[Imam al-Husayn (a)]] asked him to reply to Shimr.
