In the Battle of Karbala

As a member of 'Umar ibn Sa'd army, he came to Karbala to fight with Hussain ibn Ali. However, when he saw that Ibn Ziyad did not accept the suggestion of Hussain and they engaged in a war, he joined Hussain at night with some people of his tribe.[1] They have been mentioned as seven people.[2] He was martyred in the first attack of the army of Ibn Sa'd on the Day of Ashura.[1] His name has been mentioned in Ziyara al-Shuhada: "Peace be upon Juwayn ibn Malik al-Duba'i."[3]
