Peak of Eloquence Nahjul Balagha By Imam Ali ibn Abu Talib - English Translation - Sermon 217

#suntv #nahjulbalagha #nahjulbalaghaenglish
When Imam Ali Ibn Abu Talib (PBUH) Passed by the Corpses of
Talhah Ibn Ubaydullah and `Abd Ar-rahman Ibn Attab Ibn Asid,
Who Were Both Killed in the Battle of Jamal, He Said the Following:.

Abu Muhammad (Talhah) lies here away from his own place. By
Allah, I did not like that the tribesmen of Quraish should lie killed under
the stars. I have avenged myself, together with the descendants of `Abd
Manaf, but the chief persons of Banu Jumah have slipped away from
my grip. They had stretched their necks towards a matter for which they
were not suited and, therefore, their necks were broken before they
reached their goal.
