Chapter 92: Afflictions and the End of the World
Narrated Harmala: (Usama' s Maula) Usama (bin Zaid) sent me to 'Ali (at Kufa) and said, "' Ali will ask you, 'What has
prevented your companion from joining me?' You then should say to him, 'If you (' Ali) were in the
mouth of a lion, I would like to be with you, but in this matter I won' t take any part.' " Harmala added:
"' Ali didn' t give me anything (when I conveyed the message to him) so I went to Hasan, Hussain and
Ibn Ja 'far and they loaded my camels with much (wealth).
