Upon his arrival, AbuSufyan went to his daughter Umm Habeebah (raa), the Prophets's wife, and when he wanted to sit on the Messenger's carpet she folded it up so that he could not sit on it.
AbuSufyan asked `Ali whether that would be of any use, and `Ali replied that he was not sure, but he could have nothing to tell him until after the Messenger had decided what to do.
AbuSufyan's listeners asked whether the idea to go in front of the people was approved by Muhammad, and he replied no. They told him `Ali had played with his mind.
