'A'isha was amongst the opponents of [[Imam 'Ali (a)]]. Some writers have recognized this conflict to have begun during the lifetime of the Prophet itself. Her dislike towards Imam 'Ali (a) and the Ahl al-Bayt was to the extent that she did not participate in the mourning ceremony of the martyrdom of [[Lady Fatima al-Zahra (a)]] with the [[Bani Hashim]]; some others have said that she even rejoiced on account of it. She said to [[Ibn 'Abbas]]: "No city is more hated to me than the city in which the Bani Hashim reside". Her animosity with Imam 'Ali (a) caused her to sometimes refrain from even uttering his name. Towards the end of the Prophet's life, she is reported to have said: "Two people held the Prophet from under his shoulders, Qutham b. 'Abbas and the other one. | 'A'isha was amongst the opponents of [[Imam 'Ali (a)]]. Some writers have recognized this conflict to have begun during the lifetime of the Prophet (s) itself.

'A'isha was of a mind that after 'Uthman, the caliphate should return to the tribe of [[Bani Taym]]. After the murder of 'Uthman, it was said to her that [[Talha b. 'Ubayd Allah|Talha]] has been selected caliph. This news caused her happiness and she set to journey towards Medina until she reached a land called Saraf. There, she learned that the people had paid allegiance to Imam 'Ali and immediately after hearing this, returned back to Mecca and raised the cry of 'Uthman's oppressed state. She used to say that one night of 'Uthman's rule was equal to the entire life of Imam 'Ali's (a). | 'A'isha was of a mind that after 'Uthman, the caliphate should return to the tribe of [[Bani Taym]].
