Majma al-Zawaid 12085 — What happened in the affair of Ibn al-Zubayr

وَعَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ قَالَ : أَنَا حَاضِرٌ قَتْلَ ابْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ يَوْمَ قُتِلَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ ، جُعِلَتِ الْجُيُوشُ تَدْخُلُ مِنْ بَابِ الْمَسْجِدِ ، فَكُلَّمَا دَخَلَ قَوْمٌ مِنْ بَابٍ حَمَلَ عَلَيْهِمْ وَحْدَهُ حَتَّى يُخْرِجَهُمْ ، فَبَيْنَا هُوَ عَلَى تِلْكَ الْحَالِ إِذْ جَاءَتْ شُرْفَةٌ مِنْ شُرُفَاتِ الْمَسْجِدِ فَوَقَعَتْ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ فَصَرَعَتْهُ ، وَهُوَ يَتَمَثَّلُ بِهَذِهِ الْأَبْيَاتِ :
تَقُولُ أَسْمَاءُ : أَلَا تُبْكِينِي لَمْ يَبْقَ إِلَّا حَسَبِي وَدِينِي وَصَارِمٍ لَانَتْ بِهِ يَمِينِي .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ ، وَفِيهِ جَمَاعَةٌ لَمْ أَعْرِفْهُمْ .
Ishaq bin Abi Ishaq narrates: I was present when Sayyiduna Abdullah bin al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with them both) was killed; this was on the day he was killed in the Sacred Mosque. The enemy soldiers kept entering through the gates of the Mosque, and whenever some of them entered through any gate, Sayyiduna Abdullah bin al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with them both) would charge them alone until he forced them out. While he was doing this, one of the upper parapets of the Mosque came down and fell on his head and knocked him down, and he recited these verses: "Sayyidah Asma (may Allah be pleased with her) says: Do not make me weep. Nothing is left but my lineage and my religion, and a sharp sword with which my right hand has grown supple."
Al-Tabarani recorded it, and its chain contains a group of narrators whom I do not know.
