Habib Ibn Sahban stated, that Hujr bin Adi exclaimed, “What! A drop of water has prevented you from crossing over to the enemies”, by a drop Hujr was referring to the River Tigris. “It is merely the Tigris. No self has the power to die without the command of Allah. The time has already been ordained”. He then proceeded with his horse into the River Tigris. When he went in others followed with their horses. The enemies saw them and cried out “they are intoxicated jinn”, and all of them fled. (Hayatus Sahabah)
