The meaning of the Hadith reading 'There will be in Thaqif a liar and a Mubir'

Q 3: In the book entitled "Iqtida' Al-Sirat Al-Mustaqim", p. 300, there is a Hadith related by Muslim that states, There will be in Thaqif a Mubir and a liar. The meant liar was Al-Mukhtar ibn (Part No. 26; Page No. 360)  Abu `Ubayd who used to support Al-Husayn. There was also Al-Hajjaj ibn Yusuf who deviated from `Aly and his supporters, and he was a Mubir as well.What is the meaning of Mubir?


A: A Mubir is a cruel tyrant man who sheds blood, assaults people and oppresses them, such as Al-Hajjaj ibn Yusuf Al-Thaqafy. May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
