أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْأَزْدِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ثَوْرُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ سَالِمٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ
لَقِيَنِي رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي لِسَانِهِ ثِقَلٌ مَا يُبِينُ الْكَلَامَ فَذَكَرَ عُثْمَانَ فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ وَاللَّهِ مَا أَدْرِي مَا يَقُولُ غَيْرَ أَنَّكُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ يَا مَعْشَرَ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ مُحَمَّدٍ أَنَّا كُنَّا عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ نَقُولُ «أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ وَعُثْمَانُ وَإِنِّمَا هُوَ هَذَا الْمَالُ فَإِنْ أَعْطَاهُ رَضِيتُمْ»

✧ A man from the Companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ met me who had a heaviness in his tongue that prevented him from speaking clearly. He mentioned Uthman, and 'Abdullah said: By Allah, I do not know what he says, except that you know, O assembly of the Companions of the Prophet Muhammad, that during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ we used to say: Abu Bakr, then Umar, then Uthman. And it is only this wealth; if he gives it, you are pleased.
