✧ "I witnessed Ali on the Day of the Camel saying: 'O Allah, I declare my innocence to You from the blood of Uthman. My mind was overwhelmed on the day Uthman was killed, and I disapproved of myself. They wanted me to accept allegiance, but I said: By Allah, I would be ashamed before Allah to pledge allegiance to a people who killed a man about whom the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Should I not be shy of one before whom the angels are shy?" And I am ashamed before Allah to pledge allegiance while Uthman lies slain on the ground, not yet buried.' So they left. When he was buried, the people returned to me and asked me for allegiance. I said: 'O Allah, I am apprehensive about what I am undertaking.' Then a firm resolve came, and I pledged allegiance. When they said, 'O Commander of the Faithful,' it was as if my heart was shattered. I said: 'O Allah, take from me for Uthman until You are pleased.'" Al-Dhahabi omitted it from the Talkhis due to its weakness.
