[1][2] According to Shia Muslims, Abd Allah ibn al-Hasan was 11 years old when he was killed in the Battle of Karbala.
Abd Allah shielded Husayn from the stroke of the sword, whereby his hand got cut and began to dangle.
Bear patiently what you have suffered, and consider it good, because Allah will make you meet your pious forefathers."
At that point Harmala ibn Kahil threw an arrow at Abd Allah, and killed him in his uncle's arms.
