حَدَّثَنَا حَدَّثَنَا وَاصِلُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ عُمَارَةَ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ، قَالَ : " لَمَّا جِيءَ بِرَأْسِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ , وَأَصْحَابِهِ نُضِّدَتْ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فِي الرَّحَبَةِ , فَانْتَهَيْتُ إِلَيْهِمْ وَهُمْ يَقُولُونَ : قَدْ جَاءَتْ قَدْ جَاءَتْ ، فَإِذَا حَيَّةٌ قَدْ جَاءَتْ تَخَلَّلُ الرُّءُوسَ حَتَّى دَخَلَتْ فِي مَنْخَرَيْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ , فَمَكَثَتْ هُنَيْهَةً , ثُمَّ خَرَجَتْ , فَذَهَبَتْ حَتَّى تَغَيَّبَتْ ، ثُمَّ قَالُوا : قَدْ جَاءَتْ قَدْ جَاءَتْ ، فَفَعَلَتْ ذَلِكَ مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثًا . هَذَا حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ .
´Narrated 'Umarah bin 'Umair:` "When the heads of 'Ubaidullah bin Ziyad and his companions were brought, they were stacked in the Masjid at Ar-Rahbah. So I came to them and they were saying: 'It has come, it has come." And behold, there was a snake going between the heads, until it entered the nostrils of 'Ubaidullah bin Ziyad, and it remained there momentarily, then left and went until it had disappeared. Then they said: 'It has come, it has come.' So it did that two or three times."
