Ali Vs Muawiyah
Hazrat Ali was not accepted by the majority as their rulers. All the elders stay aloof from giving their pledge to Ali accept for a few companions, like Abu Musa Iashari, Jariir bin Abdullah, Abdullah bin Abaas, Amamr bin Yasir, Abu ayuab Ansari. Also, none of them ever participated with him in the battles except for Ammar.
