Musnad Ahmad 18118

Translation

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ mentioned a tribulation and brought it near and magnified it. He said: Then a man passed by veiled in a cloak, and he said: 'This one, on that day, will be upon the truth.' I went quickly—or hurried—and took hold of his upper arms and said: 'This one, O Messenger of Allah?' He said: 'This one.' And behold, it was Uthman b. Affan ؓ.
