Sa'd]] He was one of those involved in the [[martyrdom]] of [[Hussain ibn Ali|Imam al-Hussain]], 'Uthman, and Ja'far (sons of [[Ali ibn Abi Talib|Imam 'Ali]]). By the order of 'Umar b. Sa'd, after the martyrdom of Imam al-Hussain, Khawli and Humayd b. Muslim al-Azdi took the head of Imam to [[Obayd-Allah Ibn Ziad|Ibn Ziyad]]. Since they arrived there at night when the palace was closed, Khawli took the head of Imam to his house which made his wife seriously admonish him.
