وَ رَوَى عَبَّاسُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي...
وَ رَوَى عَبَّاسُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي مِخْنَفٍ عَنْ أَبِي الْكَنُودِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ قَالَ: لَمَّا بَايَعَ الْحَسَنُ ع مُعَاوِيَةَ أَقْبَلَتِ الشِّيعَةُ تَتَلَاقَى بِإِظْهَارِ الْأَسَفِ وَ الْحَسْرَةِ عَلَى تَرْكِ الْقِتَالِ فَخَرَجُوا إِلَيْهِ بَعْدَ سَنَتَيْنِ مِنْ يَوْمَ بَايَعَ مُعَاوِيَةَ And it is reported by Abbas Bin Hisham, from his father, from Abu Mikhnaf, from Abu Al Kanoud Abdul Rahman Bin Ubeyd who said, ‘When Al-Hassan -asws pledged Allegiance to Muawiya, the Shias came converging revealing the feeling of being sorry and the regret upon leaving the fighting.
They came out to him -asws after two years from the day he -asws had pledged to Muawiya. فَقَالَ لَهُ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ صُرَدَ الْخُزَاعِيُّ مَا يَنْقَضِي تَعَجُّبُنَا مِنْ بَيْعَتِكَ مُعَاوِيَةَ وَ مَعَكَ أَرْبَعُونَ أَلْفَ مُقَاتِلٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكُوفَةِ كُلُّهُمْ يَأْخُذُ الْعَطَاءَ وَ هُمْ عَلَى أَبْوَابِ مَنَازِلِهِمْ وَ مَعَهُمْ مِثْلُهُمْ مِنْ أَبْنَائِهِمْ وَ أَتْبَاعِهِمْ سِوَى شِيعَتِكَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْبَصْرَةِ وَ الْحِجَازِ Suleyman Bin Surad al Khuzaie said to him -asws , ‘We have not stopped being surprised from your -asws pledging allegiance to Muawiya and there are forty thousand fighters from the people of Al Kufa with you -asws .
All of them are taking the awards and they are at the doors of their house, and along with them are their like, from their sons and their followers, besides your -asws Shias from the people of Al Basra and Al Hijaz.
ثُمَّ لَمْ تَأْخُذْ لِنَفْسِكَ ثِقَةً فِي الْعَقْدِ وَ لَا حَظّاً مِنَ الْعَطِيَّةِ فَلَوْ كُنْتَ إِذْ فَعَلْتَ مَا فَعَلْتَ أَشْهَدْتَ عَلَى مُعَاوِيَةَ وُجُوهَ أَهْلِ الْمَشْرِقِ وَ الْمَغْرِبِ وَ كَتَبْتَ عَلَيْهِ كِتَاباً بِأَنَّ الْأَمْرَ لَكَ بَعْدَهُ كَانَ الْأَمْرُ عَلَيْنَا أَيْسَرَ وَ لَكِنَّهُ أَعْطَاكَ شَيْئاً بَيْنَكَ وَ بَيْنَهُ لَمْ يَفِ بِهِ Then you -asws did not take any assurances for yourself -asws in the pact nor any share from the award.
If only, when you -asws did what you -asws did, had kept witnessed upon Muawiya, faces of the east and the west, and written an agreement upon him that the command should be for you -asws after him -asws , the matter would have been easier upon us, but he gave you -asws something between you -asws and him, he will not be loyal with it’.
