==Capture of 'Abd Allah b. Yaqtar== Hussain b. Numayr or Hussain b. Tamim caught 'Abd Allah b. Yaqtar and sent him to [[Ubayd Allah b. Ziyad|'Ubayd Allah b. Ziyad]]. Ibn Ziyad asked him to go up on the roof of the Dar al-Imara palace and curse at Imam al-Hussain and his father. He did go up on the roof of the palace, but instead of cursing, said, "O people, I am sent by al-Hussain. Help him against [[Ubayd Allah b. Ziyad|Ibn Marjana]] and Ibn Sumayya!" He also called Ibn Ziyad, "Vile, the son of vile". ===Finding Muslim b. 'Aqil's Letter=== Malik b. Yarbu' al-Tamimi showed a letter to Ibn Ziyad that he had taken from 'Abd Allah b. Yaqtar. In that letter, it was written, <blockquote>To Hussain b. Ali b. Abi Talib. So, I inform you that a group of the people of Kufa who are such and such have given allegiance to you. When you receive my letter, move (towards Kufa) immediately because majority of people are with you and do not side with [[Yazid]].</blockquote>
