حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ حَدَّثَنِي زِيَادُ بْنُ أَيُّوبَ حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ قَالَ زَعَمَ أَبُو الْمِقْدَامِعَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ قَالَ

دَخَلْتُ الْمَسْجِدَ، فَإِذَا أَنَا بِعُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ مُتَّكِئٌ عَلَى رِدَائِهِ، فَأَتَاهُ سَقَّاءَانِ يَخْتَصِمَانِ إِلَيْهِ، فَقَضَى بَيْنَهُمَا، ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُهُ، فَنَظَرْتُ إِلَيْهِ، فَإِذَا رَجُلٌ حَسَنُ الْوَجْهِ، بِوَجْنَتِهِ نَكَتَاتُ جُدَرِيٍّ، وَإِذَا شَعَرُهُ قَدْ كَسَا ذِرَاعَيْهِ

✧ I entered the mosque, and there was Uthman b. Affan leaning on his cloak. Two water carriers came to him disputing, so he judged between them. Then I came to him and looked at him, and he was a handsome man, with smallpox marks on his cheek, and his hair had covered his forearms.
