( أَخْبَرَنَاهُ ) أَبُو بَكْرٍ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الْقَاضِي، ثَنَا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، أَنْبَأَ الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، أَنْبَأَ الشَّافِعِيُّ، أَنْبَأَ مَالِكُ بْنُ أَنَسٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدٍ مَوْلَى ابْنِ أَزْهَرَ قَالَ:
شَهِدْتُ الْعِيدَ مَعَ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ ؓ فَجَاءَ فَصَلَّى، ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ فَخَطَبَ، فَقَالَ: إِنَّهُ قَدِ اجْتَمَعَ لَكُمْ فِي يَوْمِكُمْ هَذَا عِيدَانِ، فَمَنْ أَحَبَّ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعَالِيَةِ أَنْ يَنْتَظِرَ الْجُمُعَةَ، فَلْيَنْتَظِرْهَا، وَمَنْ أَحَبَّ أَنْ يَرْجِعَ، فَلْيَرْجِعْ، فَقَدْ أَذِنْتُ لَهُ.

I witnessed the Eid with ʿUthmān b. ʿAffān ؓ. He came and prayed, then he turned away and delivered a sermon, and said: "Two Eids have come together for you on this day of yours. So whoever of the people of al-ʿĀliyah wishes to wait for the Friday prayer, let him wait for it, and whoever wishes to return, let him return, for I have permitted him."
