حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ بْنِ سَهْلٍ قَالَكُنْتُ مَعَ عُثْمَانَ فِي الدَّارِ وَهُوَ مَحْصُورٌ قَالَ وَكُنَّا نَدْخُلُ مَدْخَلًا إِذَادَخَلْنَاهُ سَمِعْنَا كَلَامَ مَنْ عَلَى الْبَلَاطِ قَالَ

كُنْتُ مَعَ عُثْمَانَ فِي الدَّارِ وَهُوَ مَحْصُورٌ قَالَ: وَكُنَّا نَدْخُلُ مَدْخَلًا إِذَا دَخَلْنَاهُ سَمِعْنَا كَلَامَ مَنْ عَلَى الْبَلَاطِ، قَالَ: فَدَخَلَ عُثْمَانُ يَوْمًا لِحَاجَةٍ، فَخَرَجَ إِلَيْنَا مُنْتَقِعًا لَوْنُهُ، فَقَالَ: إِنَّهُمْ لَيَتَوَعَّدُونِي بِالْقَتْلِ آنِفًا، قَالَ: قُلْنَا: يَكْفِيكَهُمُ اللهُ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، قَالَ: فَقَالَ: وَبِمَ يَقْتُلُونِي ؟ فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: إِنَّهُ لَا يَحِلُّ دَمُ امْرِئٍ مُسْلِمٍ إِلَّا فِي إِحْدَى ثَلَاثٍ: رَجُلٌ كَفَرَ بَعْدَ إِسْلَامِهِ، أَوْ زَنَى بَعْدَ إِحْصَانِهِ، أَوْ قَتَلَ نَفْسًا بِغَيْرِ نَفْسٍ؛ فَوَاللهِ مَا زَنَيْتُ فِي جَاهِلِيَّةٍ وَلَا إِسْلَامٍ قَطُّ، وَلَا تَمَنَّيْتُ بَدَلًا بِدِينِي مُنْذُ هَدَانِي اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ، وَلَا قَتَلْتُ نَفْسًا، فَبِمَ يَقْتُلُونِي ؟

✧ I was with Uthman in the house while he was besieged. He said: We used to enter through a passage; when we entered it, we could hear the speech of those on the paved area. He said: One day Uthman entered for a need and came out to us with his color changed and said: They have just now been threatening me with death. He said: We said: May Allah suffice you against them, O Commander of the Believers. He said: And why would they kill me? For I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: The blood of a Muslim man is not lawful except in one of three cases: a man who disbelieves after his Islam, or commits adultery after being married, or kills a soul without a soul. By Allah, I never committed adultery either in Jahiliyya or in Islam, nor did I wish for a replacement for my religion since Allah, Mighty and Glorious, guided me, nor did I kill a soul. So why would they kill me?
