Sahih al-Bukhari 4066

Translation

A man came to perform the Hajj to (Allah's) House. Seeing some people sitting, he said, "Who are these sitting people?" Somebody said, "They are the people of Quraish." He said, "Who is the old man?" They said, "Ibn ʿUmar." He went to him and said, "I want to ask you about something; will you tell me about it? I ask you with the respect due to the sanctity of this (Sacred) House, do you know that ʿUthman bin ʿAffan fled on the day of Uhud?" Ibn ʿUmar said, "Yes." He said, "Do you know that he (i.e. ʿUthman) was absent from the Badr (battle) and did not join it?" Ibn ʿUmar said, "Yes." He said, "Do you know that he failed to be present at the Ridwan Pledge of allegiance (i.e. Pledge of allegiance at Hudaibiya) and did not witness it?" Ibn ʿUmar replied, "Yes," He then said, "Allahu- Akbar!" Ibn ʿUmar said, "Come along; I will inform you and explain to you what you have asked. As for the flight (of ʿUthman) on the day of Uhud, I testify that Allah forgave him. As regards his absence from the Badr (battle), he was married to the daughter of Messenger of Allah ﷺ and she was ill, so the Prophet ﷺ said to him, 'You will have such reward as a man who has fought the Badr battle will get, and will also have the same share of the booty.' As for his absence from the Ridwan Pledge of allegiance if there had been anybody more respected by the Meccans than ʿUthman bin ʿAffan, the Prophet would surely have sent that man instead of ʿUthman. So the Prophet ﷺ sent him (i.e. ʿUthman to Mecca) and the Ridwan Pledge of allegiance took place after ʿUthman had gone to Mecca. The Prophet raised his right hand saying. 'This is the hand of ʿUthman,' and clapped it over his other hand and said, "This is for ʿUthman.'" Ibn ʿUmar then said (to the man), "Go now, after taking this information."
