According to [[al-Iskafi]] (d. 240/854), when, during the battle, al-Hasan (a) confronted one of the commanders of the [[Syria|Syrian]] army, the latter refused to fight with him and said, “I saw the Prophet (s) on a camel while you were sitting in front of him. I don’t want to meet the Prophet (s) while having your blood on my hands.”<ref>Iskāfī, ''al-Miʿyār wa al-muwāzina'', p. 150-151.</ref> | According to [[al-Iskafi]] (d. 240/854-5), when, during the battle, al-Hasan (a) confronted one of the commanders of the [[Syria|Syrian]] army, the latter refused to fight with him and said, “I saw the Prophet (s) on a camel while you were sitting in front of him.

It is also reported that Ubayd Allah b. Umar (the son of the second caliph) met al-Hasan (a) during the battle and proposed that al-Hasan (a) should take over the caliphate, because the [[Quraysh]] hold grudges against his father.” In response, Imam al-Hasan (a) said, “By God, this will never happen.” Then, he told Ubayd Allah, “It is as if I see that you will be killed today or tomorrow, and [[Satan]] has deceived you.” This prophecy was fulfilled and Ubayd Allah was killed in the same battle.<ref>Naṣr b.
