His name was mentioned with slight variations in historical sources among the martyrs of Karbala, [1] but in other resource believed that his correct name was Hanzala ibn As'ad al-Shibami which has been explicitly. [2] It seems that the name of the son was mistaken with the name of the father and 'As'ad was distorted to Sa'd. [3]
