bro, during the khilafat of Imam Ali AS yes he had his followers move to Kufa with him…but Muawiya ruled Kufa for 20 years and more and during this time he had executed and imprisoned the followers of Imam Ali AS…may of them left for Yemen and other places…I will quote u a passage of dialogue between Hani ibn Urwa who was from Kufa and ibn ziyad, whose father was governer of Kufa for Muawiya…

“Don’t you know Hani, when my father came to this land, he did not spare the life of any one of the Shi’a except for your father and Hujr? (And) You know what happened to Hujr”.
(History of Tabari, English translation - Volume 19 page 38)

My mistake. “post Ali khilafat era” should read “during the khilafat of Ali”.
