As Salamu Alaikum brothers & sisters.
I'm trying to solve the riddle between Ammar ibn Yasir r.a. & Uthman r.a.
While reading Ibn Kathir's Al bidaya, I get some dialogues which might make one feel that, Ammar(r.a.) was in favour of killing/taking revenge of Uthman r.a. and he wasn't sad about murder of UThman r.a. -
1. here he makes reason for killing?
فرجع ابن عباس والأشتر إلى علي ، فأخبراه الخبر ، فأرسل الحسن وعمار بن ياسر ، وقال لعمار : انطلق فأصلح ما أفسدت . فانطلقا حتى دخلا المسجد فكان أول من سلم عليهما مسروق بن الأجدع ، فقال لعمار : علام قتلتم عثمان ؟ فقال : على شتم أعراضنا وضرب أبشارنا .
Raw translation-
Then ibn abbas & ashtar went to ALi and informed things. then Ali sent ammar & Hasan r.a. & said to Ammar- solve the fasad you've vreated.
Both of them (Ammar & Hasan r.a.) entered masjid of Kufa and at first Masruk ibn Ajda gave Salam to them.
Then he Asked Ammar(r.a.)- based upon what you've killed Uthman ?
Ammar replies- for insulting us and hurting our men.
2. Again here he says he wasn't sad about killing of Uthman r.a.-
وخرج أبو موسى فلقي الحسن بن علي فضمه إليه ، وقال لعمار : يا أبا اليقظان أعدوت على أمير المؤمنين عثمان قتلته ؟ فقال : لم أفعل ولم يسؤني
Raw Tr-
Abu MUsa(r.a.) came out and met Hasan ibn ALi(r.a.) & embraced him. Then he asked Ammar r.a.-
"Ya Abal_Yakzan! Did you call for the murder of Uthman?"
Ammar replies- "I didn't do it and It didn't make me sad"
Maybe there are other sayings of Ammar r.a. which proves he wasn't among the Sabaaite rebels. But can anyone please solve this replies given by him to other sahaba?
