حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ صَالِحِ بْنِ هَانِئٍ ثنا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ الْبَجَلِيُّ ثنا عَفَّانُ ثنا وُهَيْبٌ ثنا أَيُّوبُ عَنْ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ عَنْ أَبِي الْأَشْعَثِ عَنْ مُرَّةَ بْنِ كَعْبٍ قَالَ

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَذْكُرُ فِتْنَةً فَقَرَّ بِهَا فَمَرَّ بِهِ رَجُلٌ مُقَنَّعٌ فِي ثَوْبٍ فَقَالَ «هَذَا يَوْمَئِذٍ عَلَى الْهُدَى» فَقُمْتُ إِلَيْهِ فَإِذَا هُوَ عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عَفَّانَ فَأَقْبَلْتُ إِلَيْهِ بِوَجْهِهِ فَقُلْتُ هُوَ هَذَا؟ قَالَ «نَعَمْ»

✧ I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ mention a trial and he acknowledged it. A veiled man wrapped in a garment passed by him, and he said, "This one is upon guidance on that day." So I went up to him and behold, it was Uthman b. Affan. I turned to him with his face and said, "Is it this one?" He said, "Yes."
