Ali refuses to lead prayer while the caliph is besieged

When the rebels surrounded Uthman in his house, people asked Ali to lead the prayer; he refused, saying he would not lead them while the imam was besieged, prayed alone and went home, leaving his sons with the sons of other companions to guard the caliph's house. Al-Aqqad reads this as a warning that attacking the caliph was an attack on every notable in Islam.
