حَدَّثَنَا هَاشِمٌ حَدَّثَنَا لَيْثٌ حَدَّثَنِي زُهْرَةُ بْنُ مَعْبَدٍ الْقُرَشِيُّ عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ مَوْلَى عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ
سَمِعْتُ عُثْمَانَ يَقُولُ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ: أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ، إِنِّي كَتَمْتُكُمْ حَدِيثًا سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ كَرَاهِيَةَ تَفَرُّقِكُمْ عَنِّي، ثُمَّ بَدَا لِي أَنْ أُحَدِّثَكُمُوهُ؛ لِيَخْتَارَ امْرُؤٌ لِنَفْسِهِ مَا بَدَا لَهُ؛ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: رِبَاطُ يَوْمٍ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ [تَعَالَى] خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَلْفِ يَوْمٍ فِيمَا سِوَاهُ مِنَ الْمَنَازِلِ.

✧ I heard Uthman say on the pulpit: O people, I concealed from you a hadith I heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ out of dislike that you would disperse from me, but it occurred to me to relate it to you so that a man may choose for himself what seems best to him. I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: Guarding one day in the way of Allah, Exalted is He, is better than a thousand days elsewhere in other stations.
