In the Battle of Karbala
According to historical sources, Sayf b. Harith b. Suray and Malik b. Abd Allah b. Suray were brothers from the same mother and were also cousin. They went to Karbala and joined the companions of Imam Hussain.
On the Day of Ashura, when they saw Imam Hussain confronting the army of enemy, went to him crying. Imam told them, "O cousins! Why are you crying? By God, I hope your eyes will soon be brightened [to heaven]."
They answered, "May God sacrifice us for you; by God we swear we are not crying for ourselves, but our crying is because we see you besieged and cannot defend you."
Imam said, "May God give you best of rewards He gives to the God-wary for your companionship and defense."
After Hanzala b. As'ad al-Shibami was martyred, Sayf and Malik greeted Imam. Imam answered their greeting and they moved toward the enemy. They fought while they supported each other until they both were martyred.[2]
