...On the evening of 'Ashura, Yazid's army drove the women out of their tents and set fire to them. When this happened, the women started screaming, and upon coming out of their tents, they saw the bodies of their deceased loved ones, and as such, began to beat their faces. When the night became dark, and the armies had stopped fighting, the atmosphere of war dissipated. 'Umar b. Sa'adand his army were ecstatic due to their supposed victory, and were eagerly awaiting the rewards that they had been promised.
On the evening of 'Ashura, 'Umar b. Sa'ad sent the Imam al-Husayn's (a) head to Kufathrough Khawli al-Asbahi. He himself, and his army remained in Karbala for the night, and headed to Kufa the day after just before mid-day, after burying their own dead. Along with them, they took the children and sisters of Imam al-Husayn (a), and the other women and widows from his camp. On the afternoon of 'Ashura, 'Umar b. Sa'ad had ordered that camels without saddles should be prepared in order to mount their prisoners (i.e. the Ahl al-Bayt). It has been reported that on the night of the eleventh of Muharram, i.e. Sham-i Ghariban, the Lady Zaynab (a) did not abandon her night prayers (Salat al-Layl), however, because of the weakness that had overcome her, she prayed sitting (instead of standing).
