\n (After a few days) Umar said to Abu Bakr, \u2018What is preventing you to send someone to Ali -asws for the \u2018Bayt\u2019, for there is no one remaining except that he has done Bayt apart from him -asws and those four (Mola Ali -asws \u2019s supporters)\u2019.

And Abu Bakr was softer of the two men, and more thoughtful of the two, and the more peaceful of the two, and had more foresight of the two, and the other one was more short-tempered of the two, and hard-hearted of the two, and more oppressive of the two. Abu Bakr said: \u2018Who shall we sent to him -asws ?\u2019 Umar said, \u2018We should send to him -asws Qunfuz, and he was a man who was rude, muscular, short-tempered from one of the freed slaves.

[10] \n He sent him, and sent some \u2018Al-Ansar\u2019 along with him, and they gather at house of Imam Ali -asws . They sought permission from Imam Ali -asws to enter the house. He -asws did not permit them. The companions of Qunfuz returned to Abu Bakr and Umar \u2013 and they were both seated in the Masjid, and the people were around them. They said, \u2018He -asws is not permitting us\u2019.

Umar said, \u2018Go, if he -asws gives you permission, and if not, enter without permission.\u2019 They rushed across. They sought permission. The Syeda -asws said, \u2018Get out of here all of you that you cannot entered into my -asws house without my -asws permission!\u2019 They returned, and Qunfuz the accursed, remained there. They said (to Abu Bakr and Umar), \u2018The Syeda -asws said such and such.

She -asws told us to get out of her -asws house, for we (cannot) enter without permission\u2019. Umar got angry and said, \u2018What have we to do with the women (being very disrespectful – nouzo billah)?\u2019 \n Then he ordered the people around him to carry firewood. They all carried firewood, and Umar carried it with them. They went around the home of Imam Ali -asws and the Syeda -asws , and their -asws two sons -asws .

Then Umar called out until Imam Ali -asws and the Syeda -asws heard, \u2018By Allah -azwj , Come out to us, O Ali -asws , and do \u2018Bayt\u2019 to the caliph of Rasool Allah -saww , or else we will burn down your -asws house upon you -asws \u2019. The Syeda -asws said: \u2018O Umar, what have you to do with us -asws ?\u2019 He said, \u2018Open the door or else we will burn down your -asws house upon you -asws \u2019.
