Note 509 — Chapter XXXVI · REBELLION AT BUSSORAH. A.H. XXXVI. A.D. 656.
Reading edition
This column, which was got up in haste and with difficulty (for there was no enthusiasm at any time for Aly), was composed chiefly of men belonging to Kûfa and Bussorah in Aly’s interest. What these were doing then at Medîna does not appear.
