Haj Ismail Dolabi (ra) narrates: "One day two young men wearing an attire (which was not suitable for a gathering of a majlis) came to our home and laughed and then left. I was upset because they laughed instead of crying and then left. Then the next day those two young men came again and this time their condition had changed from head to toe.
And they cried a lot on masaib. When they were leaving the house , I called out to them, held their hand and made them sit and then asked them,' What's the matter?! When you came the other day you had a different attitude but what happened today?
Then those men started crying and said, 'We had got this information yesterday that lunch was being served at your house, so we came to eat that only but when we saw people crying, beating their chest and slapping their faces so we made fun of them and laughed. When the Majlis was not getting over so we decided to leave and on our way back we saw two three cups lying on the floor so we picked it up and put it in the kitchen and then we left.
Now the same night we both had a same dream in which we saw that we entered your house and Both Imam Hussain (as) and Hazrat Abbas (as) were standing by the door and Imam Hussain (as) asked Hz Abbas (as) - 'Did you write the names of the people who attended this majlis? '
Hazrat Abbas (as) replied,' Yes!!
Imam Hussain (as) asked ,' Did you write the name of these two young men?'
Hazrat Abbas (as) said, 'No! Because they made fun and laughed too!'
Imam Hussain (as) said,' That's right beloved brother, but you also saw that these two picked up those cups and put them in the kitchen. So write their names too in the list.'
Then we woke up and cried a lot.
