حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو زَكَرِيَّا الْقَاسِمُ بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ ثنا أَبُو بَكْرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ رَجَاءٍ السُّدِّيُّ ثنا دَاوُدُ بْنُ رُشَيْدٍ ثنا الْهَيْثَمُ بْنُ عَدِيٍّ حَدَّثَنِي إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ أَبِي خَالِدٍ حَدَّثَنِي طَارِقُ بْنُ شِهَابٍ الْأَحْمَسِيُّ قَالَ
اسْتَعْمَلَ عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عَفَّانَ الْوَلِيدَ بْنَ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ أَبِي مُعَيْطٍ وَكَانَ أَخَاهُ لِأُمِّهِ عَلَى الْكُوفَةِ وَأَرْضِهَا وَبِهَا سَعْدُ بْنُ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ فَقَدِمَ عَلَى سَعْدٍ فَأَجْلَسَهُ مَعَهُ وَلَا يَعْلَمُ بِعِلْمِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَبَا وَهْبٍ مَا أَقْدَمَكَ؟ قَالَ «قَدِمْتُ عَامِلًا» قَالَ عَلَى أَيِّ شَيْءٍ؟ قَالَ «عَلَى عَمَلِكَ» فَقَالَ وَاللَّهِ مَا أَدْرِي أَكِسْتَ بَعْدِي أَمْ حَمُقْتُ بَعْدَكَ؟ فَقَالَ «وَاللَّهِ مَا كِسْتُ بَعْدَكَ وَلَا حَمُقْتَ بَعْدِي وَلَكِنَّ الْقَوْمَ اسْتَأْثَرُوا عَلَيْكَ بِسُلْطَانِهِمْ» فَقَالَ صَدَقْتَحذفه الذهبي من التلخيص لضعفه

✧ Uthman b. Affan appointed al-Walid b. Uqba b. Abi Mu'ayt, and he was his maternal brother, over Kufa and its land, while Sa'd b. Abi Waqqas was there. He came to Sa'd and seated him with him, not knowing his purpose. Then he said, "Abu Wahb, what brought you?" He said, "I have come as an agent." He said, "Over what?" He said, "Over your post." He said, "By Allah, I do not know whether I have become foolish after you or you have become foolish after me." He said, "By Allah, neither have I become foolish after you nor have you become foolish after me, but the people have favored themselves over you with their authority." He said, "You have spoken the truth." Al-Dhahabi omitted it from the Talkhis due to its weakness.
