76. And by this chain, from Abaan, from Abdul Rahmaan Bin Abu Abdullah, from Abu Al-Abbas Al-Makky who said: ‘I heard Abu Ja’far عليه الصلاة والسلام saying that: ‘Umar met Ali عليه الصلاة والسلام, so he said to him عليه الصلاة والسلام, ‘You عليه الصلاة والسلام are the one who is reciting this Verse: “[68:6] Which of you is afflicted with madness” and applying it to me and to my companion’. He عليه الصلاة والسلام said to him: ‘Shall I not inform you of a Verse which has Descended about the Clan of Umayya: “[47:22] But if you held command, you were sure to make mischief in the land and cut off the ties of kinship”?’ So he said, ‘You عليه الصلاة والسلام are lying. The Clan of Umayya are better at maintaining relations than you عليه الصلاة والسلام are, but you عليه الصلاة والسلام refuse to do anything except be inimical to the Clan of Taym (Abu Bakr’s tribe), and the Clan of Ady (Umar’s tribe), and the Clan of Umayya (Muawiya’s tribe)’.
