It is narrated from Marzooq Thaqafi (may Allah have mercy on him) (he was the servant of Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Zubair, may Allah be pleased with them, whom Hajjaj had captured). He says: Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Zubair, may Allah be pleased with them, sent me to his mother, Sayyida Asma bint Abi Bakr, may Allah be pleased with her, so that I could inform her of what Hajjaj was doing to him. Sayyida Asma, may Allah be pleased with her, prayed for me, and passed her hand over my head, and at that time I was near the age of puberty.
