He led an army of four thousand men at the battle of Karbala leading to [[martyrdom]] of [[Hussain ibn Ali|Imam Hussain]] and his followers on 10 [[Muharram]] 61/10 October 680. It is said that his motivation for suppressing Imam Hussain revolt was to achieve the governorship of Ray. Finally, he was killed by the order of [[Mukhtar]] who revolted against Umayyad to take revenge of Imam Hussain’s martyrdom. | '''Omar Ibn Sa’d''' (d.
