Zuhayr was known by people of Kufa as a brave, distinguished and famous figure. Thus he was challenged to individual battles by Salim and Yasar—servants of [[Ziyad b. Abih]] and [['Ubayd Allah b. Ziyad]]—who were chanting paeans. When [['Abd Allah b. 'Umayr al-Kalbi]] went to fight with them, they told him: "we do not know you. Let Zuhayr b. Qayn or Habib b. Mazahir come and fight with us". Zuhayr raised to smash them, but Imam Husayn (a) did not let him go, and sent 'Abd Allah b. 'Umayr to fight them. | Zuhayr was known by people of [[Kufa]] as a brave, distinguished and famous figure.
