حَدَّثَنَا غُنْدَرٌ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ سِمَاكَ بْنَ حَرْبٍ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ حَنْظَلَةَ بْنَ قَنَانٍ أَبَا مُحَمَّدٍ مِنْ بَنِي عَامِرِ بْنِ ذُهْلٍ قَالَ:
أَشْرَفَ عَلَيْنَا عُثْمَانُ مِنْ كَوَّةٍ وَهُوَ مَحْصُورٌ فَقَالَ: أَفِيكُمُ ابْنَا مَحْدُوجٍ [١]؟ فَلَمْ يَكُونَا ثَمَّ، كَانَا نَائِمَيْنِ، فَأُوقِظَا فَجَاءَا، فَقَالَ لَهُمَا عُثْمَانُ: أُذَكِّرُكُمَا اللهَ، أَلَسْتُمَا تَعْلَمَانِ أَنَّ عُمَرَ قَالَ: إِنَّمَا رَبِيعَةُ فَاجِرٌ أَوْ غَادِرٌ، فَإِنِّي وَاللهِ لَا أَجْعَلُ فَرَائِضَهُمْ وَفَرَائِضَ قَوْمٍ جَاؤُوا مِنْ مَسِيرَةِ شَهْرٍ، [وَإِنَّمَا مُهَاجَرُ أَحَدِهِمْ] [٢]عِنْدَ طُنُبِهِ، ثُمَّ زِدْتُهُمْ فِي غَدَاةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ [خَمْسَ مِائَةٍ] [٣]، حَتَّى أَلْحَقْتُهُمْ بِهِمْ ؟، قَالَا: بَلَى، قَالَ: أُذَكِّرُكُمَا اللهَ، أَلَسْتُمَا تَعْلَمَانِ أَنَّكُمَا أَتَيْتُمَانِي فَقُلْتُمَا: إِنَّ كِنْدَةَ أَكَلَةُ رَأَسٍ، وَإِنَّ رَبِيعَةَ هُمُ الرَّأْسُ، وَإِنَّ الْأَشْعَثَ بْنَ قَيْسٍ قَدْ أَكَلَهُمْ، فَنَزَعْتُهُ وَاسْتَعْمَلْتُكُمَا ؟ قَالَا: بَلَى، قَالَ: اللَّهُمَّ [٤]إِنْ كَانُوا كَفَرُوا مَعْرُوفِي وَبَدَّلُوا نِعْمَتِي فَلَا تُرْضِهِمْ عَنْ إِمَامٍ، وَلَا تُرْضِ الْإِمَامَ عَنْهُمْ

"'Uthman looked down upon us from a window while he was besieged and said: 'Are the two sons of Mahduj among you?' They were not there; they were sleeping. They were woken and came. 'Uthman said to them: 'I remind you by Allah, do you not know that 'Umar said: Rabi'ah is only wicked or treacherous? By Allah, I will not make their obligations and the obligations of a people who came from a month's journey equal, and each one's migration is at his tent-rope. Then I added to them in one morning five hundred, until I joined them with them?' They said: 'Yes.' He said: 'I remind you by Allah, do you not know that you came to me and said: Kindah are devourers of heads, Rabi'ah is the head, and al-Ash'ath ibn Qays has devoured them, so I removed him and appointed you two?' They said: 'Yes.' He said: 'O Allah, if they disbelieved my kindness and changed my blessing, then do not make them pleased with any leader, and do not make the leader pleased with them.'"
