"عن كثير النواء قال: قلت لأبى جعفر: إِنَّ فُلانًا حدَّثنى عن علىِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ أنَّ هَذِهِ الآيةَ نَزَلَتْ في أَبِى بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ: {وَنَزَعْنَا مَا فِي صُدُورِهِمْ مِنْ غِلٍّ} قالَ: وَاللهِ إِنِّهَا لَفِيهِمْ نَزَلَتْ، وَفِيمَنْ تَنْزِلُ إِلَّا فِيهِمْ؟ ! قلتُ: وَأَىُّ غِلٍّ هُوَ؟ قالَ: غِلُّ الْجَاهِليَّةِ، إِنَّ بنى تَيمٍ وَبَنِى عَدىٍّ وَبَنِى هَاشِمٍ كانَ بَيْنَهُمْ في الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ، فَلَمَّا أَسْلَمَ هَؤُلاَءِ الْقَوْمُ تَحَابُّوا، فَأَخَذَتْ أبا بَكْرِ الْخَاصِرَةُ فَجَعَلَ عَلِىٌّ يُسَخِّنُ يَدَهُ فَيَكْوى بِهَا خَاصِرَةَ أَبِى بَكْرٍ، فَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الآيَةُ".

"Kathir al-Nawwa said: I said to Abu Ja'far: 'So-and-so narrated to me from 'Ali ibn al-Husayn that this verse was revealed concerning Abu Bakr and 'Umar: {And We will remove whatever is in their breasts of resentment}.' He said: 'By Allah, it was indeed revealed concerning them, and concerning whom else would it be revealed if not them?!' I said: 'And what resentment is it?' He said: 'It is the resentment of the Jahiliyyah. The Banu Taym, the Banu 'Adi and the Banu Hashim had enmity between them in the Jahiliyyah. When these people embraced Islam, they loved one another. Then Abu Bakr was seized by a pain in the side, so 'Ali began to heat his hand and cauterize Abu Bakr's side with it, and this verse was revealed.'"
