Yazid Bin Moavie (may God curse him) ordered Ubeidullah Bin Ziyad to have the wives Ahle Beit and the wives of Imam Hussein (peace be upon him) move toward Sham along with the sacred head of Imam Hussein (peace be upon him), the heads of the youth and the head of the companions of Imam Hussein that had martyred and their merchandises.
It has been narrated in the history '' after Ibn Ziyad showed the heads of the martyrs of Karbala in the alleys and the neighborhoods of Karbala for a day (according to another narration, for few days), they sent them to Yazid Bin Moaviye in Sham. Ibn Ziyad left the heads of the martyrs of Karbala to Zohar Bin Gheis and he had him move toward Sham.

After Ibn Ziyad sent the head of Imam Hussein (peace be upon him), he sent Asrae along with Shemr Zi Al-Joshan and Mokhfer Bin Thabale Aezi to Sham in the Muharram fifteenth and shackled the holy hand and the feet of Imam Sajad ( peace be upon him) and had Asrae ride a came without reins. That dichotomous person brought the immaculate Ahle Beit like the captured polytheists of Karbala from a land to another land to sham dishonorably which even people came and watched them.
There are no sources and documents about the time that Asrae was moving from Kufa toward Sham and what happened during this path; only impolite behaviors of the carriers of the sacred heads such as drinking wine and they passed different cities.
The carriers of the heads of the martyrs rested in the first accommodation, had fun with playing the heads of the martyrs and were drinking wine some time of the night.

Suddenly, an hand appeared from the wall and wrote this poem with an irony pencil with drops of blood
اَتَرْجُو اُمَّهٌ قَتَلَتْ حُسَیْنا شَفاعَهَ جَدِّهِ یَوْمَ الْحِسابِ
'' Does the person that killed Imam Hussein (peace be upon him) are in the hope of being interceded by their grandfather in the doomsday?''

The carriers of the heads highly scared; therefore, some of them stood up in order to grab the hand and the pencil, but they disappeared suddenly. When they came back, the hand with bloody ink appeared again and wrote this poem

فَلا وَ الله لَیْسَ لَهُم شَفیع وَ هُمْ یَومَ القیامَه فی الْعَذاب
'' I swear God no one will intercede them in the doomsday and they will be tortured in the doomsday''.

Some of them wanted to grab the hand once more, but it disappeared. When they came back for the third time, the hand wrote this poem the same as previous time
وَ قَد قتلُو الحُسینَ بحکم جَور وَ خالف خَلفَهُم حکم الکِتاب
''They martyred Imam Hussein (peace be upon him) tyrannically; therefore, they acted against Quran''.
The carriers of the head regretted to eat food and did not sleep due to their fear. At midnight, the monk that lived there heard a voice. The monk listened to it carefully and heard the admiration of God. The monk stood up and took his head out of the window. He understood that a light from the lance beside the wall was raised toward the sky and the angels were descending from the sky in groups and were saying
السلام علیک یابن رسول الله ... السلام علیک یا ابا عبدالله.
Seeing this scene, the monk surprised and the fear filled all over his body. He left the monastery, went among the companions of Ibn Ziyad and asked '' who is your head?'' they answered '' Khuli''. He went to Khuli and asked '' whom does this head belong?'' he answered
'' The head of a foreigner man (Nauz Bellah), left Iraq and Ibn Ziyad killed him''. The monk asked '' what is his name?'' Khuli asked '' his name is Hussein Bin Ali Bin Abitaleb (peace be upon him)''.

He asked him again '' what is the name of his mother?'' Khuli answered ''Fateme Bint Muhammad Mustafa (peace of Allah be upon him and his descendants)''.
The monk asked surprisingly '' do you mean Muhammad that is your prophet?''
Khuli answered'' yes''. The monk was saying loudly '' God perishes you for what you have done''. He begged them to let him keep the holy head of Imam Hussein (peace be upon him) untill the morning. Khuli said '' we cannot accept your request. We should take it to Yazid Bin Moaviye in order to receive reward''. The monk asked '' how much is your reward?'' Khuli asked '' ten thousand Dirham''. The monk said '' I will pay ten thousand Dirham''. Khuli accepted it and gave the holy head to the monk.

The monk rose up the holy head with musk, laid it on his prayer carpet and cried all of night. When the morning arrived, he stated to the luminous head '' O' my head! I have nothing to give you, but I attest that God is only the creator of the world and your grandfather, Hazrat Muhammad (peace of Allah be upon him and his descendants), is the prophet of God. I attest I am your servant and added '' O' Aba Abdullah! I wish I had been in Karbala and had sacrificed my body for you. O' Aba Abdullah! When you visit your grandfather, you attest I said Shahadatein (reciting the articles of Islamic faith) and believed in the Islam in your presence''. The he said
اشهد ان لا اله الا الله ...

He gave the head to them in the morning. Afterwards, he left the monastery and became the servant of Ahle Beit.
Ibn Hesham said '' when they took back the head from the monk, they continued their path. When they arrived Damascus, they said '' let's divide the Dirham among ourselves and tell nothing about it to Yazid. When they opened the packs of Dirham, they saw that they had become ceramic. It had been written on them

"فلا حسبن الله غافلا عما یعلم الظالمون"Ibrahim Surah/ verse 42))
''Think not that Allah doth not heed of the deeds of those who do wrong''.
It had been written on another one
گو سیعلم الذین ظلموا ای منقلب ینقلبون

'' The tyrants should know what will happen to them as soon as possible''.
The carriers of the head threw away the crocks in a river. Khuli said '' do not reveal this secret'' and said to himself
انا لله و انا الیه راجعون، حذر الدنیا والاخر
The history has not determined the events happened during the path toward Sham, how many accommodations they rested and what happened to them.

Hussein Ruh Nobakhti was the special companion of Imam Hasan Asgari (peace be upon him) and the lawyer and the agent of Muhammad Bin Uthman. He was appointed as the successor of Imam in 305 Gh in that era. The race of Hussein was Iranian and was from the dynasty of No Bakht. When Muhammad Bin Uthman passed away, Hussein Bin Ruh stayed in his house the rest of the day. The servant of Muhammad Bin Uthman granted the stick, the casket and the book left from him to Hussein Bin Ruh. When Hussein Bin Ruh saw them, he said '' this stick belongs to my guardian, Imam Asgari (peace be upon him); the casket includes the ring of the Imams and the standing of the Imam has been recorded in the book. After a while, the letter was given to Hussein Bin Ruh on Sunday in the Shavval fifth in 305 Gh from the Imam Zaman (peace be upon him). It has been written in the letter '' we know Hussein Bin Ruh in this way '' God has him be familiar with good actions and whatever satisfies God and makes him satisfied with his blessings. We knew the content of his letter and are sure of the responsibility left to him. The rank that he has in us satisfies him. God grants him more blessings''. Hussein Bin Ruh that was the successor of Imam for twenty one years had high scientific rank. He wrote a book with the name '' Al-Taadib'' in jurisprudence that all of the scientists of the theological school of Qom had confirmed its content. The great jurisprudents of Qom with a lot of knowledge of jurisprudence science obeyed him.
Ali Bin Babuye, the famous Mohades of Qom, went to Baghdad to visit Hussein Bin Ruh, asked his questions from him and came back Qom.

Hussein Bin Ruh Nobakhti achieved to a social position and a highly religious rank as much as all of his supporters and the persons against him considered him the wisest person in that time.
However, he was imprisoned in the prison of the caliph, Moghtader Abasi, from 312 until 317. During this time, he organized the affairs of Shias through the intermediate of several lawyers. It can be understood from narrations and news that Excellency Muhammad Bin Uthman had lawyers and agents in the time of his ministry. For example, he had ten lawyers in Baghdad; Abu Al-Ghasem Hussein Bin Ruh was one of them and all of them had closer relationship with him than Hussein Bin Ruh.
As it has been narrated from Jafar Bin Muhammad Bin Ghulie Qomi, our Sheikhs said '' we were sure that Jafar Bin Ahmad Metil Qomi or his father would be only the successor of Muhammad Bin Uthman because they were as close as the second ambassador ate food only in the house of Jafar Bin Metil. In conclusion, the Shias were sure that Jafar Bin Metil would be appointed as the successor of Muhammad Bin Uthman after his death. However, when he introduced Hussein Bin Ruh as his successor, they accepted it. The reason the selection of Hussein Bin Ruh, in spite of great persons and dignitaries such as Abu Sahl Nobakhti and others, was that he had prominent features and Hazrat Saheb Al-Amr selected him with considering those features.
He was highly respected in the government of Abasi caliphs due to his relationship with the dynasty of Nobakhti in the time of Moghtader in 295-329 Gh. he was responsible for the estates of the caliph and socially, he was respected and accepted among the Shias and non-Shiite persons in Baghdad. The good position of Hussein Bin Ruh helped him to be accepted by all in the time of his successor. Hence, although a lot of persons were against the second ambassador, few persons were against Hussein Bin Ruh and he stood against them slyly.
The knowledge of Hussein Bin Ruh was unique. According to a narration, he wrote a book with the name '' Al-Tadib'', sent it to the jurisprudents of Qom in the Shiite great scientific center and wrote on it '' read this book and record the parts that you disagree. After the jurisprudents of Qom read it, they wrote '' the whole book is correct except a matter that is about the amount '' one Sae''. Hussein Bin Ruh had a lot of scientific debates in the time when he was caliph and the matters that he expressed to answer the questions of the opposite side represented his high scientific rank.
