SERMON 219 - When Imam Ali Ibn Abi Talib, Peace be Upon Him Passed by the Corpses of Talhah Ibn `Ubaydullah and `Abd Ar-rahman Ibn `Attab Ibn Asid, Who Were Both Killed in the Battle of Jamal, He Said the Following


Abu Muhammad (Talhah) lies here away from his own place. By Allah, I did not like that the tribesmen of Quraish should lie killed under the stars. I have avenged myself, together with the descendants of `Abd Manaf, but the chief persons of Banu Jumah have slipped away from my grip. They had stretched their necks towards a matter for which they were not suited and, therefore, their necks were broken before they reached their goal.
