"عَنْ عَلِىٍّ قَالَ: يَا أَهْلَ الْكُوفَةِ! سَيُقْتَلُ مِنْكُمْ سَبَعَةُ نَفَرٍ خَيَارُكُمْ، مَثَلُهُمْ كمَثَلِ أَصْحَابِ الأُخْدُود، مِنْهُمْ حُجْرُ بْنُ الأَدْبَرِ وَأَصْحَابُهُ، قَتَلَهُمْ مُعَاوِيةُ بِالْعَذْرَاءِ مِنْ دِمَشْقَ، كُلُّهُمْ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكُوَفَةِ".

"On the authority of Ali, who said: O people of Kufah! Seven men from among you, your best, will be killed, like the companions of the trench. Among them are Hujr ibn al-Adbar and his companions. Mu'awiyah will kill them at 'Adhra' of Damascus. All of them are from the people of Kufah."
