وَأَخْبَرَنَا ) أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، ثَنَا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، ثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ خَالِدِ بْنِ خَلِيٍّ، ثَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ شُعَيْبِ بْنِ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي عُرْوَةُ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ أَنَّ عُبَيْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عَدِيِّ بْنِ الْخِيَارِ أَخْبَرَهُ
أَنَّهُ دَخَلَ عَلَى أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عُثْمَانَ ؓ الدَّارَ وَهُوَ مَحْصُورٌ وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ؓ يُصَلِّي لِلنَّاسِ فَقَالَ: يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ إِنِّي أَتَحَرَّجُ فِي الصَّلَاةِ مَعَ هَؤُلَاءِ وَأَنْتَ مَحْصُورٌ، وَأَنْتَ الْإِمَامُ فَكَيْفَ تَرَى فِي الصَّلَاةِ مَعَهُمْ ؟ فَقَالَ لَهُ عُثْمَانُ ؓ: إِنَّ الصَّلَاةَ أَحْسَنُ مَا يَعْمَلُ النَّاسُ، فَإِذَا أَحْسَنُوا فَأَحْسِنْ مَعَهُمْ، وَإِذَا أَسَاؤُوا فَاجْتَنِبْ إِسَاءَتَهُمْ

That he entered upon the Commander of the Believers, ʿUthmān ؓ, in the house while he was under siege, and ʿAlī b. Abī Ṭālib ؓ was leading the people in prayer. He said: "O Commander of the Believers, I feel uneasy about praying with these people while you are besieged and you are the imam. What is your view about praying with them?" ʿUthmān ؓ said to him: "Prayer is the best of what people do. So when they do well, do well with them, and when they do evil, avoid their evil."

رواه الزهري واختلف عنه فرواه الأوزاعي عن الزهري وتابعه النعمان بن راشد والزبيدي وأبو أيوب الإفريقي فقالوا عن الزهري عن حميد بن عبد الرحمن عن عبيد الله بن عدي وخالفهم شعيب بن أبي حمزة وإسحاق بن راشد وعبيد الله بن أبي زياد فرووه عن الزهري عن عروة عن عبيد الله بن عدي وكذلك قال عبد الواحد بن زياد وغندر عن معمر وقال محمد بن ثور عن معمر عن الزهري عن عبيد الله بن عدي لم يذكر بينهما أحدا وأرسله حماد بن زيد عن معمر عن الزهري وتابعه جعفر بن برقان عن الزهري وحديث حميد بن عبد الرحمن هو المحفوظ ولا يدفع حديث عروة أن يكون الزهري حفظ عنهما جميعا ورواه سعد بن إبراهيم بن عبد الرحمن بن عوف عن أبيه عن عبيد الله بن عدي حدث به محمد بن إسحاق عنه
machine translationAl-Zuhrī narrated it, and there is disagreement about him. Al-Awzāʿī narrated it from al-Zuhrī, and he was followed by al-Nuʿmān b. Rāshid, al-Zubaydī and Abū Ayyūb al-Ifrīqī, who said: from al-Zuhrī, from Ḥumayd b. ʿAbd al-Raḥmān, from ʿUbaydullāh b. ʿAdī. But Shuʿayb b. Abī Ḥamzah, Isḥāq b. Rāshid and ʿUbaydullāh b. Abī Ziyād differed from them, and narrated it from al-Zuhrī, from ʿUrwah, from ʿUbaydullāh b. ʿAdī. Likewise said ʿAbd al-Wāḥid b. Ziyād and Ghundar, from Maʿmar. Muḥammad b. Thawr said, from Maʿmar, from al-Zuhrī, from ʿUbaydullāh b. ʿAdī, without mentioning anyone between them. Ḥammād b. Zayd transmitted it as a mursal report from Maʿmar, from al-Zuhrī, and he was followed by Jaʿfar b. Burqān, from al-Zuhrī. The ḥadīth of Ḥumayd b. ʿAbd al-Raḥmān is the preserved one (maḥfūẓ), and it does not rule out the ḥadīth of ʿUrwah, as al-Zuhrī may have memorized it from both of them. Saʿd b. Ibrāhīm b. ʿAbd al-Raḥmān b. ʿAwf also narrated it from his father, from ʿUbaydullāh b. ʿAdī; Muḥammad b. Isḥāq narrated it from him.
