Hazrat Hisham bin Hassan (may Allah have mercy on him) says that when Imam Muhammad (may Allah have mercy on him) was asked about giving ghusl (ritual washing) to a martyr, he (may Allah have mercy on him) would narrate from Hazrat Hujr bin Adi (may Allah have mercy on him) that when Muawiyah killed him, Hazrat Hujr (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Do not remove my armor, and do not wash my blood, and bury me in my clothes and in the state with my blood upon me. For tomorrow I will meet Muawiyah with this very dispute.
