وَأَخْبَرَنَاهُ سَلَمَةُ بْنُ شَبِيبٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى ؓ يَتَقَارَبُونَ فِي حَدِيثِهِمْ قَالَ:
دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ حَائِطًا بِالْمَدِينَةِ، فَتَسَجَّى بِثَوْبِهِ، وَأَغْلَقْتُ الْبَابَ - أَحْسَبُهُ قَالَ: عَلَيْهِ - فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ فَضَرَبَ الْبَابَ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: يَا عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ قَيْسٍ، افْتَحْ لَهُ وَبَشِّرْهُ بِالْجَنَّةِ فَفَتَحْتُ لَهُ فَإِذَا هُوَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ، فَقُلْتُ: أَبْشِرْ بَشَّرَكَ اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ، أَبْشِرْ بِالْجَنَّةِ، فَدَخَلَ فَحَمِدَ اللهَ وَقَعَدَ، ثُمَّ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ فَضَرَبَ الْبَابَ، فَقَالَ: " يَا عَبْدَ اللهِ، افْتَحْ لَهُ وَبَشِّرْهُ بِالْجَنَّةِ " فَفَتَحْتُ لَهُ فَإِذَا هُوَ عُمَرُ، فَقُلْتُ: أَبْشِرْ بَشَّرَكَ اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ، أَبْشِرْ بِالْجَنَّةِ فَحَمِدَ اللهَ وَجَلَسَ، وَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ فَضَرَبَ الْبَابَ، فَقَالَ: " يَا عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ قَيْسٍ، افْتَحْ لَهُ وَبَشِّرْهُ بِالْجَنَّةِ، وَسَيَلْقَى وَيَلْقَى " فَإِذَا هُوَ عُثْمَانُ، فَقُلْتُ: أَبْشِرْ بَشَّرَكَ اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ بِالْجَنَّةِ، فَحَمِدَ اللهَ وَقَعَدَ، فَقَالَ: مَا هَذِهِ الْكَلِمَةُ الَّتِي قُلْتَهَا لِي وَلَمْ تَقُلْهَا لِصَاحِبَيَّ ".

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered a walled garden in Madinah, wrapped himself in his garment, and I locked the gate—I think he said: behind him. A man came and knocked on the gate, so the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "O 'Abd Allah b. Qays, open for him and give him glad tidings of Paradise." I opened it and it was Abu Bakr. I said: "Rejoice! May Allah and His Messenger give you glad tidings; rejoice in Paradise." He entered, praised Allah, and sat down. Then another man came and knocked on the gate, so he said: "O 'Abd Allah, open for him and give him glad tidings of Paradise." I opened it and it was 'Umar. I said: "Rejoice! May Allah and His Messenger give you glad tidings; rejoice in Paradise." He praised Allah and sat down. Then another man came and knocked on the gate, so he said: "O 'Abd Allah b. Qays, open for him and give him glad tidings of Paradise, and he will meet and will meet [tribulation]." It was 'Uthman. I said: "Rejoice! May Allah and His Messenger give you glad tidings of Paradise." He praised Allah and sat down. Then he said: "What is this word that you said to me and did not say to my two companions?"
