|Native name=حبیب بن امیر}}'''Habbab b. Amir''' was a devoted Shi'a who pledged allegiance to [[Muslim b. Aqil b. Abi Talib|Muslim b. Aqil]]. After the [[martyrdom]] of Muslim, he fled secretly [[Kufa]] to join [[Imam Hussain]]'s camp in Karbala. He was eventually martyred at the [[Battle of Karbala]].  

==Martyrdom==
When Habbab b. Amir learned about the martyrdom of [[Muslim b. Aqil b. Abi Talib|Muslim b. Aqil]], he hid and waited for an opportunity to join Imam. After he was informed about moving [[Imam Hussain]] toward Kufa, left Kufa secretly and joined the caravan of Imam. He was martyred on the day of [[Ashura]]. 

Some sources reported his martyrdom in the first attack of the army of [[Umar b. Sa'd]].<ref>Ḥusaynī Shīrāzī, ''Dhakhīrat al-dārayn'', p. 473; Samāwī, ''Ibṣār al-ʿayn'', p. 195.</ref>
