Shawdhab Mawla Shakir () was among Husayn ibn Ali's companions who was martyred at the Battle of Karbala.
Shawdhab mentioned as the servant of Shakir ibn Abd Allah al-Hamdani al-Shakiri in some resource and others mentioned him as the servant of Abis ibn Abi Shabib al-Shakiri.
He was a memorizer of hadiths and transmitted hadiths from Ali ibn Abi Talib.
He and Abis ibn Abi Shabib al-Shakiri delivered the letter of Muslim ibn Aqil from Kufa to Husayn in Mecca and accompanied him from Mecca to Karbala.
Abis ibn Abi Shabib al-Shakiri came to Shawdhab, who was his relative, and said, âÂÂWhat is your heartâÂÂs desireâÂÂ? He replied, âÂÂWhat do I desire? I desire to fight alongside you, while defending the grandson of the Prophet of Allah, until I am martyred.â Abis replied, "and nothing else was expected from you. If I had anyone dearer than you today, I would send him to the battlefield before I would go."
He was martyred in the afternoon of Ashura after Hanzala ibn As'ad al-Shibami.
