Abu Thawr al-Huddani, who belonged to a branch of the Murad tribe, narrates: I came to Sayyiduna Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) and Sayyiduna Abu Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him); both of them were in the mosque of Kufa in the days of al-Jara'ah (al-Jara'ah is the name of a place in Kufa where this incident took place). This was on the occasion when the people treated Sa'id bin al-As as they did. Sayyiduna Abu Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) was teaching the people and saying: By Allah! I do not think that this matter will end until blood is shed in it. Sayyiduna Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: By Allah! This matter will end and no blood will be shed in it; and whatever I know about it today, I knew it even when Sayyiduna Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) was alive.
